Promotion thriller: TSV Havelse against Lok Leipzig in the decisive second leg!

Leipzig, Deutschland - On June 1, 2025, TSV Havelse and the 1st FC Lokomotive Leipzig face each other in the second leg of the promotion relegation to the 3rd division. After the exciting first leg, which took place on May 28, 2025 in the Bruno Plachen Stadium and ended 1-1, the expectations are high. The number of spectators is almost 10,000 when the master of the Regionalliga Nord, Havelse, competes against the northeast title holder Leipzig to secure a place in the third division. Lok coach Jochen Seitz emphasizes that his team is prepared for all scenarios, including a possible penalty shootout. A live ticker for the game is already available to keep the fans up to date.

An intensive game developed in which both teams fought for every goal. In the 89th minute, Marko Ilic scored the 1-0 for Havelse, but in added time Dorian Cevis equalized for Leipzig and secured the draw at the last second. Despite the uncertainties on the defensive, the Havelse players showed a combative performance.

Game overview and re-leg preparation

The return of the two teams for an important second leg takes place in the Havelse stadium at home, where the team will compete in the Eilenriedstadion, since the Wilhelm Langrehr Stadium does not meet the DFB requirements. A possible return to the 3rd league would be a new chance for Havelse after the club had risen in the 2021/2022 season about the relegation to the third division, but had to relegate again after one season. In the event of an ascent, the plans for most games are to use the Eilenriedstadion with a capacity of 5,000 places.

Both teams look forward to the second leg in which the pressure is high. Leipzig will try to take advantage of the home advantage, while the Havelse kickers will give everything to transform the draw from the first leg into an ascent. The relegation promises exciting football moments and the fans are looking forward to Sunday, June 1, 2025, at 1:30 p.m.
