Five goals and a clear win: Weimar is off to a brilliant start to the season!
The new season in the state class started with real fireworks! In a thrilling game, the local team beat Weimar 5-2 and provided the numerous spectators with an exciting football experience. Manuel Staatz scored the first goal in the third minute and gave the guests from Weimar a 1-0 lead. This early goal set the stage for a dynamic game in which the home team around coach Ronny Schneider applied pressure from the start and made the guests sweat with their quick actions. But after 15 minutes the tide turned somewhat and the game became more and more balanced.
In the 32nd minute it was Marius Trunk who equalized for the guests. After a clever pass from Ole Barthel, Trunk grabbed the ball and gave the goalkeeper no chance. Shortly afterwards, Evan Häßer had a good opportunity to take the lead, but his shot on the move went just wide. The game remained exciting; Shortly afterwards, Trunk also came dangerously in front of the goal again, but his shot grazed past the post.
The turning point after halftime
The second half started with a bang. In the 50th minute, Ole Barthel made it 2-1 for the home team. The pressure that the hosts had built up in the first half was now rewarded. A precise cross from Evan Häßer landed in the net as Luis Czerwonka made it 3-1 in the 56th minute. By now Weimar seemed to have no plan. While the unit reserves with Max Jäger scored from a penalty to make it 4-1 after Luis Czerwonka got through the defense, the guests could no longer find an answer to the hosts' powerful game.
In a real showpiece, Leon Matiss scored the fifth goal in the 82nd minute. The game had already been decided when Manuel Staatz scored the goal for Weimar in the final phase to make it 5-2.

Outlook for the next match
Looking ahead to the next challenges, the team will face SV Schott Jena II on August 23, 2025. The aim here is to confirm the performance shown today and stay on the road to success.
A quick look outside the box: Football is currently being hotly debated, and not just in the national league. Last year, the missed penalty in the quarter-final game between Germany and Spain at the European Championships was a topic of conversation. Referee Anthony Taylor found himself criticized when he did not consider Marc Cucurella's handball scene a penalty. Roberto Rosetti, UEFA's refereeing chief, clarified that the hand was not in an unnatural position. Coach Julian Nagelsmann was met with considerable indignation at this decision and expressed frustration at the verdict, which many found to be unfair. A DFB team that is now looking ahead to the 2026 World Cup after being eliminated from the tournament remains a topic of conversation - also when it comes to referee decisions.
From a sporting perspective, fans of the home team in Cologne can look forward to an exciting few weeks. We can only hope that the boys can maintain their current form in the coming matches.
