DJK Vilzing narrowly wins the friendly against Weiden 3-2!
An exciting friendly match took place on the VfB Rothenstadt sports grounds on July 13, 2025, in which DJK Vilzing from the Regionalliga Bayern defeated SpVgg SV Weiden from the Bayernliga 3-2. This duel was an important preparation for the upcoming season for both teams, and the tension was felt right up to the last minute.
The start was rapid: In the 8th minute, Erol Özbay put Vilzing in the lead with an impressive goal. Just five minutes later, Alexis Alban Fambo made it 2-0. However, Weiden didn't let it get them down and came through Jahi Sylemani in the 24th minute, which kept the spectators on both sides on their toes.

Brave performance from Weiden
Coach Michael Riester von Weiden was satisfied with his team's fighting attitude after the game. Despite the defeat, he praised Vilzing's effectiveness, which was particularly evident in the first half. “We fought until the end and showed that we can hold our own against strong opponents,” said Riester.
With this committed performance in the friendly, Weiden wants to gain confidence before they face FC Ingolstadt II on Saturday. Another test for the Bayernliga team, who believe they have a good chance of getting a better position in the table this season.
The starting position in the Bavarian Regional League
The occasional look at the Bavarian Regional League is also exciting. Most teams in this league are already very popular, with teams like FC Augsburg II and SpVgg Ansbach 09 currently occupying the top spots. The Ansbachers in particular are remarkably strong with 5 wins from the last 5 games. A look at the statistics shows that there is no clear favorite in the league and every point is hotly contested. This leaves a lot of room for surprises for the coming season, as the details on footystats.org make clear.
Overall, the match between DJK Vilzing and SpVgg SV Weiden was a promising test for both teams. The audience could look forward to gripping scenes and lots of emotions. Both teams now have the opportunity to build on these experiences to get the best out of themselves in the upcoming season.
