Bielefeld's sensational cup victory: Young beats Bremen in the last second!
The DFB Cup game between Arminia Bielefeld and Werder Bremen was an exciting clash! On August 15, 2025, Bielefeld won the first main round 1-0 in a real heart-stopping final.
In a game that was characterized by intense moments, it was former Werder player Isaiah Young who made the decision in stoppage time (90th + 3 minutes) and scored the winning goal. Young had played for Werder Bremen's second team from 2017 to 2020, which added to the significance of his goal. Coach Mitch Kniat was enthusiastic about his team's performance and particularly praised the match winner.
Missed chances and a red card
Werder Bremen had several opportunities to take the lead in the first half. Marco Grüll failed in the 14th minute and Felix Agu in the 33rd minute due to Bielefeld's defense. But things took a turn in the 54th minute when Leonardo Bittencourt was shown a yellow-red card, forcing the Bremen team onto the defensive.
After this critical situation, Bielefeld took advantage of the opportunity and had several clear chances. The winning goal came after a precise pass from Benjamin Boakye, which was let through by Julian Kania. Young took advantage of the opportunity and caused the stadium to cheer. Bielefeld, last year's finalists, had already beaten Bremen in the previous season and were now able to repeat that success, while Bremen suffered from frustration.
Outlook and future challenges
After the game, Marco Friedl, the captain of Werder Bremen, expressed his disillusionment about the defeat and the challenges that lie ahead for the team in the league. Coach Horst Steffen blamed personnel problems and complained about injured players, which didn't make the preparations any easier. Bielefeld, on the other hand, is confident about the upcoming game against Dynamo Dresden.
The next rounds of the DFB Cup are scheduled for October 28th and 29th, 2025, and the draw for the second main round will take place on August 31st. While Bielefeld can celebrate this victory, Bremen has a critical phase ahead of them as Eintracht Frankfurt awaits on Saturday.
