Werder Bremen have sacked coach Viktor Skripnik after the club were left bottom of the Bundesliga following their third straight loss on Saturday.
Werder were beaten 4-1 by Borussia Monchengladbach and have yet to earn a point this season.
They have also lost to Bayern Munich and Augsburg while they crashed out of the DFB Cup in the first round to Sportfreunde Lotte, a third division team.

"The preparation for the two home games against Mainz 05 and VfL Wolfsburg is taken over on Monday by U23 coach Alexander Nouri," Werder said in a statement.
