Rostock in cup fever: Hansa welcomes the underdog from Görmin!
Today, Friday, October 10, 2025, the ball rolls in the Ostseestadion, where FC Hansa Rostock meets SV 90 Görmin in the Lübzer Pils State Cup. The third division team from Rostock is considered the favorite, but has only celebrated one win in the last eight league games. Coach Hansa's team has to work hard to survive against the ambitious Görminers, who are currently in fifth place in the state class II. They play in the 8th league and have a solid record with 13 points.
With excitement and anticipation, the Görmin fans set out to support their team. Five chartered buses are ready to transport the fan camp of around 400 to 500 people to Rostock. An exciting encounter should therefore be guaranteed, even if the home advantage was moved from Görmin to Rostock because their own stadium does not offer enough space. [Baltic Sea Newspaper]
The challenge for Rostock
What is Hansa Rostock doing this season? The results speak for themselves: just one win from the last eight games shows that the team is currently in more of a mess than many fans would like. Especially in the cup there should be a liberation in order to strengthen self-confidence and improve the results in the league.
In the past, FC Hansa has already proven that it can hold its own well against lower-class opponents. In the last encounter in the state cup, they clearly won 2-0 against Torgelower SV Greif. The Rostock team was successful back then and would like to show that they are the superior force again this time. [FC Hansa]

The promotion and relegation options are clearly regulated: the last two teams are relegated directly, while the best teams in the lower leagues use the opportunity to fight their way up to the higher classes.
