Only yesterday, Saarland’s state government gave the green light to the match being played in Völklingen. There was previously a question about being able to adhere to the coronavirus regulations at the Hermann Neuberger Stadium. FCS are playing in Völklingen this season due to the rebuilding of their Ludwigspark ground and they are the first team from the fourth tier to reach the DFB cup semi-finals.
The second semi-final is between Bayern Munich and Eintracht Frankfurt. The match at the Allianz Arena in Munich will be played on 10 June (kick-off: 20.45 CET/live on Sky and on ARD). Both games will be played behind closed doors due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Since 2023, Bayer 04 has been organising regular free goalkeeping coach training sessions at the BayArena. As in previous years, the event attracted enormous interest in mid-October 2026. Around 140 participants – mostly goalkeeping coaches from the region, but also team and academy coaches as well as association staff – came to the Werkself stadium to gain expert knowledge on the subject of zonal marking. Through a theoretical keynote presentation and a practical session on the pitch, the participants gained insights into goalkeeping and goalkeeper training at Bayer 04.
