Wangen against Heimenkirch: Derby with no chance of promotion, tension remains!

Next Sunday at 11.30 a.m. FC Wangen and TSV Heimenkirch will face each other in the Allgäu Stadium. This is a highly anticipated derby, but the sporting conditions couldn't be less attractive. Even before the game it was clear that Wangen no longer had any realistic chances of promotion in the promotion round of the national football league. Coach Joachim Baur's team is currently in fifth place with 20 points. TSV Heimenkirch is in seventh place with 11 points, but has won the last two derbies against Weiler and is therefore unbeaten this season.

In the first leg between the two teams, the score was 1-1. Given FC Wangen's previous performances in the promotion round, where they drew three times, a win over Heimenkirch would be particularly important. Coach Baur is demanding more determination from his players in front of the goal after captain Simon Wetzel recently hit the crossbar and Okan Housein was denied by the opposing goalkeeper. According to Baur, exploiting opportunities is a central problem that accompanied the team throughout the entire promotion round.

The special end of the season

For Adrian Philipp, the coach of TSV Heimenkirch, the encounter marks a special end to the season. However, his team is struggling with significant personnel problems. Numerous players are injured or ailing, which has a significant impact on participation in training. Philipp reports that four players are seriously injured and will be out for a longer period of time. Despite these challenges, he hopes that luck is on his team's side to finish the season undefeated.

However, the rivalry and the derby feeling are still noticeable. The fans of both teams are waiting for the meeting with great expectations, despite the clear starting position in the table. The amateur football environment in Wangen and Heimenkirch thrives on such duels, which often go beyond current form and table positions.

In conclusion, the derby represents an important opportunity for both Wangen and Heimenkirch to end the season in the best possible way. The duels not only have sporting value, but also contribute to local identity and rivalry. Further information and details about the game can be found on the FC Wangen pages and in the VBG-Sportreport.

This means the cards for the derby on Sunday have been reshuffled – things remain exciting both on the pitch and on the sidelines.
