You can tell that this competition means a lot to both coaches and players,” said a delighted Lars Ricken, director of the hugely successful BVB academy, following the intense and high-quality clash with the heavily-favoured French club.

It’s time for the last home game of the season. This is also always the time when farewells are on the agenda. In the run-up to the Bielefeld game on Friday evening, the Blue and Whites will thank a total of eleven professionals, all of whose contracts expire this summer, for their past service in the VfL colours.

Luckily instead of having training tomorrow, we have a cup quarterfinal against FC Bayern,” said Streich, who admits to having tried a number of different approaches in Munich in the past, but was also full of praise of what the team has achieved recently. “We were in the last 16 of the Europa League, DFB-Pokal final last May and now we’re in the quarters again this season. That’s sensational. We don’t have anything to lose now, nor do we have anything to give away.”

On Friday, 24th March 2023 (18:00 CEST), the Old Lady will play a charity match at the Poststadion against Regionalliga side Berliner AK. Both clubs will donate all the proceeds from the match to help the victims of the tragic earthquake in Turkey earlier this year.
