Bremen's Nigerian forward Anthony Ujah (L)

Nigeria striker Anthony Ujah scored his first Bundesliga goal for Werder Bremen on Friday to rescue a point in a 1-1 draw at Hertha Berlin.

The 24-year-old, who signed from Cologne last season, hit a 26th-minute equaliser after Swiss midfielder Valentin Stocker had given the hosts a sixth-minute lead at Berlin's Olympic stadium.

The shared point means Hertha missed out on what would have been a club record of two straight wins from their opening matches of the new season to follow on from their 1-0 away win at Augsburg.

Bremen take their first league point of the new season after last Saturday's 3-0 drubbing at home to Schalke.
