Despite final heartbreak: Bielefeld's record is here to stay
This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇩🇪 here. In the end, Arminia Bielefeld's cup fairy tale did not have a happy ending. They lost 2:4 to VfB Stuttgart. After the early 0:3 shock, the comeback failed to materialize. So the Swabians celebrated not only the title but also looked forward to international travel next season. Because of the DFB Cup win, the Bundesliga team is now also represented in the Europa League. For Arminia, it may be a weak consolation at the moment, but the future second-division team has still made history. Another reason for DSC to be incredibly proud of what they have achieved! After Hertha BSC II (1993), Energie Cottbus (1997), and Union Berlin (2001), Mitch Kniat's team was the fourth third-division team to reach the cup final. However, the predecessors never managed a goal. When Julia Kania scored in the 83rd minute yesterday against VfB Stuttgart to make it 1:4, a third-division team was able to celebrate their own goal for the first time in the final's history. And the Bielefeld team immediately extended their own record: just two minutes later, Josha Vagnoman was forced into an own goal. Two goals from a team from League 3 in the DFB Cup final? The men from the Alm can be incredibly proud of that! And who knows, maybe the Bielefeld team will make it back to the cup final someday. "That's an incentive to come back here again," Kniat had said after the final whistle. Besides the disappointment, pride also prevailed. "Nevertheless, one can be proud of what we have achieved. What the fans, what all of Bielefeld did in Berlin, was unique." The fans would surely have no problem traveling to Berlin again. 📸 Christian Kaspar-Bartke - 2025 Getty Images
