VfB Stuttgart convinced: 5-0 victory in the DFB Cup against Prussia Münster

In the DFB Cup, VfB Stuttgart impressively won from Prussia Münster and achieved a clear victory with 5: 0 (3: 0). The game took place in the Prussian stadium and offered the audience an impressive performance of the guests from the Mercedes-Benz Arena.

The Stuttgart team competed with a changed starting eleven, which included four new players compared to the league opening game against Freiburg. Under the direction of coach Sebastian Hoeneß, VfB and its players had to accept some failures, which required the need for reins. In contrast, SC Preussen Münster made five changes in the squad to strengthen the team for the cup game.

Stuttgart with dominant performance

The game started with a surprising fast lead for VfB. Angelo Stiller scored the first goal in the 7th minute after a vertebrae had formed in the penalty area. His reaction was at lightning speed and he pressed the ball over the line. This early tour gave VfB a solid basis to control the game.

After only 15 minutes, the next highlight followed: Ermedin Demirović used a precise cross from Stiller and headed to 2-0. Again, the recovery was absolutely unhindered, which underlined VfB's dominance. Pascal Stenzel laced the first half with the third goal, also by head, and increased the distance to 3: 0.

Münster's difficulties in the game

On the other hand, Prussia Münster troubled to find into the game. They put the early goals under enormous pressure and they could not recover from this deficit. Although the team played committed, they could not take their chances. Overall, there were no significant opportunities in the first half, and the class difference between the two teams was clearly visible.

In the second half, the Stuttgart residents continued the style of play that they had established in the first half. Nick Woltemade finally scored in the 72nd minute and made the final score of 4: 0 with a remarkable shot from twelve meters. Before the final whistle sounded, Atakan Karazor converted a penalty that brought another goal to 5: 0 for the guests.

The referee performance was in the hands of Dr. Matthias Jöllenbeck, who provided a total of fair and quick game management. With this convincing performance, VfB Stuttgart qualified uniformly for the next round of the DFB Cup, while Prussia has to hold up his head and should continue to orientate itself in league operations.

There is no doubt that the gaping gap between the two teams was particularly obvious that evening. VfB Stuttgart, as a Bundesliga runner-up, showed its strengths from the upper league, and the players seemed to be driven by the euphoria of the cup competition.

DFB Cup as a springboard

This cup appearance could be exactly the opportunity for Stuttgart that they need to restore their self -confidence after a difficult start to the season. Despite the two defeats at the beginning of the 2nd Bundesliga season, players were able to show what they were made of and that they are able to work as a team. In the next few days it will be important to take this swing and energies into the upcoming league games and to build on it.

For Prussia Münster, it remains to be seen how the team reacts to this defeat and whether they will be able to increase their performance in the league. The past season was a challenging return to the 2nd Bundesliga for the Münsterans, and it is urgently needed to master their challenges collectively to establish themselves in the upper third of the table.

In the first round of the DFB Cup, VfB Stuttgart, as a clear favorite, was able to play its dominance in the game against Prussia Münster. A win 5-0, which was already decided by two early goals in the first half, emphasizes the Stuttgart achievements and shows the challenges in front of which SC Prussia Münster is facing. This type of performance difference between teams from different leagues is not new and often reflects the class differences in German football.

The current status of the 2nd Bundesliga

With the victory in the DFB Cup, Stuttgart can recharge your batteries, especially after a difficult start to the current season. The first two league games were not according to plan, which makes it all the more important to achieve good results in cup games. Prussia Münster, on the other hand, fights in the 2nd Bundesliga, where the team has so far been unable to collect points to return after 33 years of absence. These challenges are not unusual when you consider that promoters often have difficulty establishing themselves in the new league.

In the 2nd Bundesliga, in addition to the HSV, there are always heavy tasks for the Münsterers. Such challenges are a huge burden for teams who have not played in the upper half of the table in the past seasons.

historical aspects of the DFB Cup

The DFB Cup was launched in 1935 and has since developed into one of the most prestigious competitions in German football. Again and again, the possibilities of the underdogs that can show strong performance, while the favorites are often under pressure, are repeatedly performing in this tournament. This dynamic makes the trophy so exciting and unpredictable. VfB Stuttgart has already celebrated many successes in the DFB Cup in its history and strives to come again this year.

The participation of Prussia Münster in this competition underlines the importance of the cup for club teams from deeper leagues. The DFB Cup not only offers the opportunity to play against larger teams, but also the chance of financial income through premiums and marketing such games.
