Dresdner SC 1898 celebrates a brilliant victory at the Over 70 Cup in Bernburg!
On August 19, 2025, Dresdner SC 1898 made a big comeback in German football. The traditional club won the title at the 4th Ü 70 Cup of the Saxony-Anhalt Football Association (FSA) in the SparkassenArena Bernburg. In an exciting final, the DSC defeated SG ScanHaus Marlow/Rostocker FC 4:3 on penalties after the regular playing time ended 1:1. This was preceded by a nerve-wracking semi-final in which Dresden won 1-0 against SpG Tresenwald/Engelsdorf. The DSC's success was particularly valuable since they were unlucky last year FSA reported.
The finalists had previously played confidently through their groups, both with two wins and a goalless draw. Marlow/Rostock managed to qualify for the final after a 1-1 draw against Westlausitz Nordost/Knappensee. However, this team lost the following penalty shootout 1:3. In the small final, the Westlausitz Nordost/Knappensee selection was able to secure the bronze medal with a 2-0 win against SpG Tresenwald/Engelsdorf. The Oscherslebener SC 1990 also impressed and took fifth place, while the FSA state team ended up in eighth place without a win and only scored a consolation goal against Elsterwerda.
Historical context of Dresden SC
Dresdner SC 1898 has a long and illustrious history that dates back to the club's founding on April 30, 1898 by five men who had left the New Dresden Football Club. That's why not only football, but also other sports have been important since its founding. The association e.v. In its early history, was best known for its strong football teams, which enjoyed great success in the years before the Second World War, including success in the Gauliga Sachsen.
The most famous footballers from Dresdner SC include Richard Hofmann, Helmut Schön and Willibald Kreß. Helmut Schön, who led the West German national team to the World Cup title in 1974, is just one example of the club's far-reaching successes. After the ban in May 1945 and the subsequent deletion from the commercial register in 1946, the club was no longer able to return to its best times and many members joined other clubs.
