Rudi Völler optimistic: DFB and Hertha are celebrating a football high!
The football world in Germany is currently dominated by exciting developments that affect both the men's and women's teams. Over the weekend, some striking headlines flew through the media that made people sit up and take notice. DFB sports director Rudi Völler is optimistic about the Germans' upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Luxembourg and Slovakia. The focus is once again on the men who want to collect important points on the way to the 2026 World Cup. Feverpitch.de reports that the team is well prepared and the conditions are right.
Hertha BSC is attracting attention in the Bundesliga and was able to win its fourth game in a row. This noticeably boosted the club, as did Gladbach's sports director Rouven Schröder's hope of signing interim coach Eugen Polanski to a long-term contract. Polanski's influence could prove to be a game-changer, as the team achieved a bang with a derby win against 1. FC Köln. Arsenal, on the other hand, suffered a major setback in stoppage time when they conceded an equalizer against Sunderland. Such dramatic turns of events show how quickly the situation in football can change.
A look at the Women's World Cup qualification
There is also remarkable news for German footballers. They have been drawn into Group 4 of the A-League, where they will face Norway, Austria and Slovenia. These opponents are solvable, so there is hope of direct qualification for the 2027 World Cup in Brazil. The first qualifying match will take place on February 26, 2026. T-Online reports that only the group winner goes directly to the World Cup. Therefore, the players must prepare well to be successful in this demanding group.
The tournament itself, which takes place in a South American country, will feature many exciting games. The finals will run from June 24 to July 25, 2027, including in cities such as São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, where the final will be played at the iconic Maracanã Stadium.
Further developments in football
A look at the national leagues also shows movement. While Bayern Munich had to accept a draw against Union Berlin, Schalke 04 surprisingly remains top of the league again after a win over SV Elversberg. In addition, RB Leipzig suffered its first defeat since the start of the season in Hoffenheim. Football fans should be prepared for an exciting few weeks, especially after looking back at Pep Guardiola's 1000th game as coach. Feverpitch.de reports also about the coach's impressive career and the development of his teams.
The next few weeks promise to be rich in emotions and encounters for both genders in football. Whether in the Bundesliga or for women at international level, football has many surprises in store. One thing is certain: the fight for points and success will be heated and competitive, especially in the qualifying phase for the 2027 World Cup. So let’s hold our breath and follow developments with interest!
