BERLIN, Oct. 31 -- Marco Reus' 3-2 overtime winner helped Borussia Dortmund to eliminate second division side Union Berlin meanwhile Werder Bremen eased 5-1 past lower league team Flensburg at the second round in the German Cup On Wednesday.

The visitors from the capital remained unimpressed and responded almost straight away but Kenny Prince Redondo's shot on target rattled only the crossbar.
However, Union's efforts were rewarded after the interval as substitute Sebastian Polter shocked the hosts after completing a fast break via Robert Zulj with an hour into the game.
It was a short-lived joy for the visitors though, as Dortmund secured their lead ten minutes later when Maximilian Philipp drilled the ball form sharp angle into the near post corner.
Union kept it bowling and levelled the scores with two minutes to the final whistle as Sebastian Polter headed home Robert Zulj's delivery into the box to force Dortmund into overtime.

Martin Harnik's brace moved Werder Bremen 5-1 past Flensburg, who were able to hold the pace in the first half.
The "Green-Whites" ensured a quickstart on the road as veteran striker Claudio Pizarro broke the deadlock after tapping home a rebound from the post in the 8th minute.
Despite the early setback, Flensburg regrouped and responded well to level the scores in the 27th minute when Ilidio Pastor Santos' cross into the box found the back of the net.
Bremen took the gloves off and established a 3-1 advantage within the first half as Florian Kainz hammered home a long-range effort in the 38th minute before Davy Klaassen converted a foul play penalty just before the break.
After the restart, Florian Kohfeldt's men were not done with the scoring as substitute Martin Harnik provided another two goals to round off the 5-1 win on the road.
