Historic DFB Cup duel: Hemelingen welcomes Wolfsburg!
This Saturday, August 16, 2025, SV Hemelingen has the great opportunity to make history in the DFB Cup. The small club welcomes VfL Wolfsburg to the Weserstadion in Bremen for its first competitive game in this prestigious competition. Kick-off is at 3:30 p.m. and the entire encounter promises to be exciting.
Coach Feyhat Tuncel is ready to optimally prepare his team for the challenge. With a 1-0 win against Bremer SV in the Bremen State Cup, Hemelingen secured participation in the DFB Cup. Referee Nico Fuchs will officiate the game and fans will be hoping for a surprise, as all of the last 24 DFB Cup debutants were eliminated in the first round - except for three clubs in the 2018/19 season.
A meeting at eye level?
Wolfsburg, coached by Paul Simonis, is by no means taking things lightly. Since 2000, the Lower Saxony team have won 24 of 25 first round matches, and they have often had the better end, especially against fifth division teams. The last game of this kind ended in 2024 with a narrow 1-0 against TuS Koblenz. Simonis, who won all five games in the KNVB Cup for the Go Ahead Eagles last season, will do everything in his power to continue this successful streak.
However, there is also hope for SV Hemelingen. Marcel Pfaar, the goalkeeper, has the bitter experience of an 11-1 defeat against Borussia Mönchengladbach in 2018 with BSC Hastedt behind him. These experiences could help him motivate his own players, because every small club dreams of a big coup in the cup.
Transmission and range
The game will not be broadcast on free TV. If you would like to follow the exciting encounter, you can do so via the live broadcast on TV and stream on Sky. For everyone who prefers to use the live ticker SPORT1 the appropriate information ready.

Who knows, perhaps this encounter will soon go down in the history books of the DFB Cup.
