BERLIN, Sept. 29 -- Stuttgart reaped their first win of the season after overpowering ten-men Werder Bremen 2-1 while Monchengladbach gave away their lead twice to share the spoils with Wolfsburg at the 6th round in Bundesliga on Saturday.

Werder Bremen missed the opportunity to grab the top spot in the table as Stuttgart returned to winning ways owing to the goals from Anastasios Donis and Gonazalo Castro.

The "Green-Whites" had a good start into the game and kept Stuttgart goalkeeper Ron-Robert Zieler busy.

However, the goal was scored at the other end of the pitch and against the run of the play as Daniel Didavi's fine through ball allowed Anastasios Donis to round Bremen custodian Jiri Pavlenka for the opener with 19 minutes played.

Bremen responded well and should have levelled the scores moments later but Theodor Gebre Selassie missed a promising chance before Milos Veljkovic booked his second yellow card to receive his marching orders in the 36th minute.

The visitors, then with ten-men, lacked in penetration but still were able to restore parity thanks to a moment of madness from goalkeeper Zieler, who spilled a throw-in from Borna Sosa into his own goal with 68 minutes into the game.

Bremen threw everything up front and got caught flat-footed as Mario Gomez set up for Gonzalo Castro, who made use of Stuttgart's numerical advantage to slot home the winner seven minutes later.

Stuttgart remained on the front foot but squandered a number of golden chances while Bremen continued offensively minded and in the search of the lucky punch.
