Home Team, OFC, Secures Victory in Home Debut Against Alzenau
In the heart of the 2025/26 Regionalliga Südwest season, Offenbach Kickers have made an impressive start, securing back-to-back victories. Their latest triumph came at home on August 8, 2025, against FC Bayern Alzenau, with a narrow 1-0 scoreline[1][5].
The decisive goal was scored by Kristjan Arh Cesen in the 76th minute, following a corner kick[7]. The game was a tense affair, filled with dramatic moments such as missed penalty chances and two late red cards, one each to Alzenau and Offenbach Kickers' Ronny Marcos due to repeated fouls[1].
Goalkeeper Johannes Brinkies was the unsung hero of the match, making crucial saves, including a dramatic penalty save in the final minutes[3].
With a well-organised and competitive team under the guidance of coach Kristjan Glibo, Offenbach Kickers attracted the support of 10,051 fans at their home game at Bruchwegstadion[1].
Looking ahead, Offenbach Kickers are scheduled to play away at 1. FSV Mainz 05 II on August 16, 2025, and then host TSV Steinbach Haiger on August 22, 2025[3]. Further fixtures through September promise to keep the team's momentum going.
Notable players in these early matches include Arh Cesen, Brinkies, and Marcos, despite his late red card[1][5]. The team's strong start, coupled with the contributions of key players, bodes well for their continued success in the Regionalliga Südwest.
Other sports, such as European football leagues, could be a potential challenge for the success- questing Offenbach Kickers as they advance in the Regionalliga Südwest. Despite their impressive display in local games, the international arena might present new obstacles and pressures for the team.
