And we're back! Well, I'm back anyway, in my 7th season I think of this thread if I can count on my fingers properly. 7 year thread, 10 years watching them, some going that for a foreign fave team. 2025/26 season officially kicks off today with the first round of the DFB Cup, and it starts with an away trip to 4th division side Sandhausen. This should, should, be a very comfortable win but who knows in German cup football as big teams go out every 5 minutes. Couple of "big" shakeups happened at the club this week with Werner deciding that the captain this season will be Raum and not Orban, as well as confirming Gulacsi as the #1 keeper which now might drive Vandervoordt to leave the club - online fans are not happy at all about this. Xavi is in the starting lineup (Chelsea need to sell to buy him) as well as wonderkid Diomande - Bakayoko drops to the bench after an indifferent pre-season so far. No squad space for new striker Romulo.
Game is LIVE from 14.30pm

Whirlwind first 5 mins. Leipzig started basically horizontal and dribbling in their sleep as Sandhausen opened the scoring, Leipzig then thought they equalised a minute later but Openda was offside, then they finally did equalise through Diomande. Goals galore ensues!

Another goal for Sandhausen. I knew I shouldn't have been excited for this season.

Ah, let's hope Everton will deliver enough excitement so you won't have to rely on this abomination of a football club!
2-2
Haven't even had chance for a piss with how many goals are going in. Xavi deep free-kick, towering header from Orban.

2-2 HT
Completely dominant display (74% possession, 14 shots) but not a dominant scoreline due to quite frankly arrogant defending from Leipzig. Some players out there need to stop thinking this is going to be really easy. Hopefully this boots a couple out of the first XI who shouldn't be there (Bake/Seiwald).

3-2 [78']
Leipzig finally take the lead after obliterating them the whole second half. Out of all the fancy footwork the goal comes from a long punt up field and Banzuzi (absolute tank) just destroys the keeper whilst heading in. No VAR, no problem.

Xavi wraps it up with his 19th attempt of the day after a lovely 1-2.
Game over. That was a sweater. Need to shape up before Bayern next weekend.

Highlights from the victory. Still can't believe how good Diomande is for 18 - kid was playing for a Florida academy 8 months ago.

Bundesliga is back and cheers fixture generator for starting it off in the worst way humanly possible with an away trip to Bayern on a Friday night. Not a result that will define the season but a humping here doesn't really look good when you're trying to start a new "era" at the club. Bayern have had a fairly quiet transfer window; with only the expensive addition of Luis Diaz to add to Jonathan Tah but I'd say they still have the strongest starting XI in the league when Kane and Olise are fit. On RB's side, it's likely the final time we'll see Xavi in a Leipzig shirt with his move to Chelsea expected to proceed after this game, we're also seeing a start for Diomande who I am SO excited to watch this season. Be happy with a draw but expecting defeat just with the amount of chances the Bulls will give up.

Unlucky getting the knock on to Olise but finish was pure class. That's basically game over already knowing these lot.
