Hoffenheim did not pick Reilingen as oponent, but merely accepted the invitation for a anniversary game (Reilingen is currently celebrating 100 years. Their juniors also played Bayern Münich’s youngsters some weeks ago – and get hammered, naturally). Now one might wonder how come that a first league team accepts to play a seventh tier one. Perhaps because the clubs have good relationships? Maybe also the fact that the largest Hoffenheim fan-club is in Reilingen?

1400 people came on a heavy rain to see a good show, and the lads did not let them down. This wasn’t done to boost any records or something – whay would they need it? Check on Hoffenheim’s official site – thei’re are not even mentioning the result. One wouldn’t think, reading how this was misinterpreted here.
