SV Oberachern produced a stunning comeback to beat VfR Aalen 3–2 on May 23, 2026, in a pulsating German Bundesliga 5 clash at the Arena Oberachern. Trailing 2–0 at half‑time, the home side turned the game around with three second‑half goals, sending their supporters into raptures.

First Half: Aalen Dominates

VfR Aalen, sitting in the top half of the table, started the match with authority. Their midfield controlled possession, and in the 12th minute, striker Nico Brenner opened the scoring with a low finish after a swift counter‑attack. The visitors doubled their lead just before the interval when winger Luca Schön curled a free‑kick over the wall and into the net. Oberachern were booed off at the break.

Second Half Turnaround

Whatever SV Oberachern’s coach said in the dressing room worked wonders. Within ten minutes of the restart, they pulled one back. A long‑range effort from Fabian Volk took a deflection and wrong‑footed the Aalen goalkeeper, making it 2–1. The home side lifted their intensity, and in the 67th minute, Mario Schlegel equalised with a towering header from a corner.

• 12' – Brenner (Aalen) 1‑0
• 45' – Schön (Aalen) 2‑0
• 55' – Volk (Oberachern) 2‑1
• 67' – Schlegel (Oberachern) 2‑2
• 83' – Felix Hauer (Oberachern) scores the winner from a tight angle.

Hero of the Match

Felix Hauer had been relatively quiet until the 83rd minute when he collected a pass on the right, cut inside, and unleashed a fierce shot that nestled into the far corner. His goal capped a remarkable fightback and earned him the man‑of‑the‑match award.

Table Implications

With this win, SV Oberachern climb to 7th in the Bundesliga 5 standings, leapfrogging Aalen who drop to 8th. The result also extends Oberachern’s unbeaten home run to six matches. VfR Aalen will rue their failure to kill the game off in the first half, having conceded three times after the break.
