Dynamo Dresden again without a win: Paderborn turns the game 2-1

On October 25, 2025, there was a bitter defeat for the local Dynamo footballers in the Rudolf Harbig Stadium in Dresden. SC Paderborn won the game 2-1 after an exciting game. This means that Dynamo Dresden remains in third-to-last place in the second division table and has been waiting for a win in 14 home games.

The game started promisingly for the home team: Christof Daferner took the lead from a penalty in the 26th minute. But the joy didn't last long. In stoppage time in the first half, Filip Bilbija also equalized with a penalty, causing an unfortunate turning point for Dresden.

A game with ups and downs

The first half showed Dynamo from its better side. They had more possession of the ball and were able to create a few chances, but these had no tangible success. Paderborn, on the other hand, presented themselves more efficiently in the second half. Mika Baur, a former Dynamo player, turned the game around in the 65th minute with a magnificent volley.

Soon after, Paderborn withdrew and waited patiently for counterattack opportunities. Although Dynamo were always in control, they failed to become really dangerous. Things got exciting again in the 90th minute when a Paderborn shot was scratched off the line, but the final whistle didn't blow and Dynamo had to accept their next defeat.

The voices for the game

Coach Ralf Kettemann from Paderborn spoke of a challenging game and emphasized his team's momentum: "We adapted well to the situation." Thomas Stamm, Dynamo's coach, was dissatisfied with the performance of his defense and criticized the lack of efficiency in the offense. “We should have made better use of the opportunities,” he said clearly.

This was Dynamo's fifth defeat this season and the team has been winless in seven games. With the defeat against Paderborn, the situation for Dresden is becoming threatening. The number of spectators of 30,990, which provided passionate support, is of little consolation.

SC Paderborn, on the other hand, were able to celebrate their sixth win in a row, which is a new club record. This meant they were able to move to second place in the table and gain new courage for the coming games.

The current table shows the tense situation:

The next challenge awaits Dynamo and fans are hoping their team can finally turn things around. The pressure on the coach and team is growing, and the next home game could be crucial.
