In the summer of 2020, FSV Babelsberg 74 returned to the Regionalliga after a three-year absence. However the team from Potsdam were immediately relegated. In each of the following two seasons, the green-and-whites finished first in the Landesliga. But in 2017/18 they voluntarily refrained from playing in the play-offs, before the NOFV then denied them promotion in 2018/19 due to a lack of youth development.

Friendly against Kassel: On Sunday morning the Wolves played a friendly game against KSV Hessen Kassel in order to help the players who have not featured as much recently to maintain their rhythm. The Green-and-Whites earned a 3-1 win with goals from Jakub Kaminski, Renato Steffen and Kevin Paredes.

Chelsea were thought to be keen on the Ivory Coast international in the summer window, and recent rumours suggest Arsenal are also interested.

Nico Schlotterbeck (to BVB-TV): “We won 4-1 but it was not a good game from us. We gave a lot away and had too little control over the game. We were very tired from the Chelsea match.

Mark Uth would have imagined a very different outcome to his first full season at FC Schalke 04. He missed more than a dozen games due to injury, but is currently working hard on his comeback. schalke04.com sat down with the 27-year-old to discuss his recovery, his impressions of the new coaching team and his personal goals for the new season.

FCA head coach Enrico Maaßen named the same XI who beat Borussia Mönchengladbach 1-0 in midweek. It was their first time playing at the Europa-Park Stadion after the home side made the move from the old Dreisamstadion at the beginning of last season.

When else will we ever be able to give Robert Lewandowski an award again? Sadly, this won’t be the time to do it, either. Lewy made some flashy plays but couldn’t pull the attack together on his own, and faded into anonymity for large swathes of the action. He would eventually be substituted in the 80th minute in a waving of the white flag from coach Xavi Hernández.
