Referee Wienefeld convinces in Braunschweig: A second outing in a class of its own!
On October 29, 2025 it was that time again - the 2nd Bundesliga could look forward to exciting action. In the game between Eintracht Braunschweig and SV Elversberg, the young referee Jarno Wienefeld officiated his second game in the league. The 27-year-old, who plays for VfL Lohbrügge, showed that he not only has talent, but also a good knack for making difficult decisions. news38.de reports that he was a confident game manager with a clear line and without being influenced by the home fans.
A particularly controversial moment occurred when Christian Conteh went down in the penalty area. Wienefeld decided on a yellow card because of an alleged swallow - a decision that was not met with universal approval, but which he followed through with consistently. Conteh quickly got back up and didn't complain any further, which shows that the game was still positive for him.
An exciting second mission
Further critical decisions had to be made in the first half. Wienefeld not only warned Fabio Di Michele Sanchez, but also coach Heiner Backhaus because of complaints. Another highlight was the yellow-red card for Robin Heußer, who had to leave the field early. Overall, there were no significant criticisms of Wienefeld as a referee, which means he can look back on an all-round successful second appearance. transfermarkt.de documents that this young referee has grown his career between different competitions such as the DFB Cup and the Regionalliga Nord.
The weather in the last few days has also contributed to the recent events. While much of Germany was affected by unsettled weather, matchday in Braunschweig was spared from rain, but fans should prepare for changeable weather. According to the forecast, there is a high chance of rain and also thunderstorms in the coming days. weather.gov warns of possible precipitation, especially in the coming week.
Jarno Wienefeld definitely left a lasting impression with his demeanor and his decisions in the 2nd Bundesliga. Will we see him on the pitch more often in the future? It's going to be exciting - the fans definitely are!
