Judgment with consequences: The U23s of SV Werder Bremen have to go into the Bremen league. The North German Football Association scored the canceled game between Bremer SV and Teutonia Ottensen in favor of BSV, which meant that Bremen’s city rivals passed Werder’s U23 in the final table and were relegated to a relegation zone.
Bremen – The hope was already low anyway, now it is finally clear that the U23 of the SV Werder Bremen from the Regional League North have to dismount. This is the result of a verdict by the sports court of the North German Football Association (NFV). The NFV-Justiciare evaluated the game between Bremer SV and Teutonia 05 Ottensen, which was stopped last Saturday at a score of 1:2, in favor of the hosts, which means that they can now fight to stay in the fourth division in the relegation that begins on Wednesday.
Association evaluates canceled regional league game in favor of Bremer SV – with consequences for Werder Bremen’s U23
The game at Panzenberg ended prematurely because a Teuton player felt racially insulted by an opponent after 40 minutes and his entire team then made their way into the dressing room. Bremen then emphatically rejected the accusation of racism, the referee and his assistants had not noticed any abuse on the field. It was statement against statement. The NFV justified the current judgment with the fact that it could not be proven without any doubt whether there really was a verbal derailment. “Racism and discrimination have neither on the squares of Regional League North there is nothing else to look for anywhere and will be condemned in the strongest possible terms by the North German Football Association,” emphasized those responsible.
“However, the punishment and punishment of such offenses is a matter for the arbitration and sports courts. The referee never stopped the game. According to his description, an attempt was made to continue the game after consultation with the players involved, the captains and those responsible. After this did not succeed, the club FC Teutonia decided on its own to leave the facility with the team and all other responsible persons, so that the game could not be continued at the U23 of the SV Werder Bremen passed and the green-whites in the Bremen-Liga slipped.
Werder Bremen’s U23s will compete in the Bremen league next season – and they also want to play quality friendlies
“Relegation at the green table is of course very disappointing,” said Frank Baumann, sports director of the SV Werder Bremen, quoted in a statement from the association. The 47-year-old also found the blame in his own house: “However, we cannot be satisfied with our performance during the season. We will the situation in the Bremen-Liga treat with all respect. Of course we will set up the squad differently and see what offers the best development opportunities for the individual players.
For Werder’s youth work, the fall into the fifth division is a sporting catastrophe, especially with regard to the development of prospective players for the Bundesliga professional squad. Shortly before the end of the season, the club parted ways with U23 coach Konrad Fünfstück, and ex-professional Christian Brand sat on the bench in the final sprint. But it didn’t help. The final game at 1. FC Phönix Lübeck was lost 2-3 in injury time, although Werder had led 2-1 in the 88th minute and could have avoided the worst-case scenario themselves. First ideas how to deal with the U23 could continue, already exists. Consideration is being given to “playing high-quality test matches in addition to normal game operations in order to enable the players to practice competitions at a high level and to also give players from the professional team appropriate game practice,” says the SV Werder Bremen.
