SV Bruchhausen-Vilsen crowns their debut with a 3-2 win over Iraklis!

In a thrilling opening game of the state league, SV Bruchhausen-Vilsen triumphed on Sunday afternoon and achieved its first victory. The team under coach Torsten Klein won 3-2 against the guests from SV Iraklis Hellas in the Vilser Marktplatz Arena. After an exciting run, SVBV was still 0-1 behind at half-time and was unable to avert the goal debacle until the 75th minute. It was only the final phase of the game that brought about a spectacular turning point.

Bruchhausen-Vilsen conceded the first goal in the club's history with a goal from Alban Shabani, who made it 1-0 for Iraklis in stoppage time in the first half. What was common was that the Vilsen team hit back again after a penalty in the 16th minute, which captain Evangelos Papaefthimiou missed. But it wasn't until the 75th minute that Nick Brockmann put a small exclamation mark with his first goal for SVBV, but the guests followed up and increased the lead to 2-0 in the 64th minute.

Strong final phase

With the support of around 400 spectators, Bruchhausen-Vilsen started a brilliant comeback in the second half of the game. In the 89th minute, Walid Garaf scored the equalizer to make it 2-2 with a free kick that went into the goal from the inside post. Garaf had previously won the ball and thus diverted the momentum to the home team's side. His teammates Madun Manka and himself had been on the bench for a long time due to injuries and proved that they could still turn the game around.

With the last action of the game, it was Manka who scored the decisive goal to make it 3-2 in the 7th minute of stoppage time. The preparatory work came from Garaf, who once again shone with his game intelligence. For Coach Klein, these final minutes were an expression of passion and belief in his team's offensive qualities. The red card for Alexandros Bouzi in the 84th minute, which put Iraklis outnumbered, gave the game an additional boost.

The first game in history

This match will be remembered not only because it was the first national league game for SV Bruchhausen-Vilsen, but also because of the exciting turnaround and the emotional last minutes. With this win, the club proved that they can compete against established teams, even if they fall behind at the start of a match. The strengthening of the team with several new additions, including Eric Schröder in goal and the players Timo Beckedorf, Leo Wolf and Mathis Wohlers, shows that the SVBV is well positioned for the season.
