David Abraham's looping header towards his own goal to clear a Zlatko Junuzovic free kick saw keeper Lukas Hradecky let the ball slip through his hands for an unlikely Bremen winner and their third win in a row.

Earlier, Junuzovic had put the hosts ahead in the first half but Luka Jovic volleyed in from a superb Kevin-Prince Boateng backheel flick for the equaliser.

Frankfurt drop to sixth on 45 points, as many as Bayer Leverkusen and one behind fourth-placed RB Leipzig.
