Flittard celebrates staying in the league – Deutz 05 falls into the district league!
In Cologne there are also ups and downs in the regional football league. The relegation of Deutz 05 to the district league was particularly bitter, which could not be prevented after a 6-0 win against DJK Südwest Köln. While Deutz 05 left the field cheering, Flittard's players were ready, set, go: In order to stay in the league, they absolutely needed a win against Rheinbach.
Coach Angelo Mazza had felt a lot of tension before this crucial match, but it quickly disappeared when his players put in an excellent performance. Flittard won the home game 4-1. The goals were scored by Florian Hensel (11th minute), Yannik Lamberz (15th), Adis Muzurovic (49th) and Paul Demtschück (90th + 3). Rheinbach's Jan-Sekou Michler only briefly caused excitement with his goal (20th minute). With this victory, Flittard celebrated its sixth success in the last nine games and thus secured relegation in the league.
The district league as a new challenge
Although Deutz 05 put in a convincing performance in their last game against DJK Südwest, it wasn't enough to escape relegation worries. Flittard and Wiehl had won in parallel and thus sealed Deutz's relegation. However, Ali Meybodi, the coach of Deutz 05, will remain on board in the district league next season, while the team will play in the cup final on Sunday against BW Köln, who have achieved promotion to the regional league.
Blau-Weiß Köln also achieved promotion to the state league, crowning the season with a 2-0 win against Schönenbach. Another coaching change took place at SW Cologne. Frank Vones said goodbye to his players after a 6-0 win in Hopesthal. The search for a successor has already begun.
The league system and the relegation scenarios
The football league system in Germany includes numerous leagues that are linked by promotions and relegations. The regulations for promotion and relegation in the national league are clearly structured. Relegations in both directions are possible, although the exact number of promoted and relegated teams depends on the number of relegated teams from the Regionalliga. Current regulations stipulate that the number of relegated teams from the regional league varies greatly depending on how many teams are relegated from the regional league.
Fupa reports on various scenarios: In the best case, up to four teams could be promoted to the top league in one season - depending on who is relegated from the regional league. Relegation from the national league is also regulated, with the fourteenth and fifteenth-placed teams having to fight for their league membership in playoffs.
The 2024/25 season has brought many ups and downs for the teams in Cologne, and the coming decisions will show who can prove themselves in the new season. The world of football remains exciting and fans can look forward to many exciting encounters.
