SSV Reutlingen 05 delivered a stunning attacking display to defeat FSV Hollenbach 5‑2 in a Bundesliga 5 fixture at the Stadion an der Kreuzeiche on 9 May 2026. The home side produced a dominant first‑half performance, scoring four goals to effectively seal the points before the interval, but Hollenbach showed character after the break to make the scoreline more respectable.

First‑Half Onslaught

Reutlingen came flying out of the blocks. Striker Lukas Kiefer opened the scoring in the 7th minute with a well‑placed shot from the edge of the box. Just three minutes later, midfielder Jonas Herter doubled the lead with a powerful header from a corner. The rout continued as winger Paul Sieber netted a brilliant solo goal in the 22nd minute, dribbling past three defenders before slotting home.

Hollenbach, shocked by the intensity, briefly pulled one back through a penalty converted by Tobias Maier in the 31st minute. However, Reutlingen restored their three‑goal advantage within two minutes when Kiefer scored his second of the game, finishing neatly after a counter‑attack. The half ended 4‑1.

Second‑Half Response

The visitors refused to surrender. Hollenbach’s Florian Kling scored a stunning free‑kick in the 54th minute to make it 4‑2, briefly raising hopes of a comeback. But Reutlingen re‑established control, and substitute Nico Brenner added a fifth in the 78th minute, tapping in from close range after a goalmouth scramble.
