FC Carl Zeiss Jena Women's Team Secures Victory Over Hamburger SV in DFB-Pokal Clash
FC Carl Zeiss Jena's women's team continued their impressive form with a 2-1 victory over Hamburger SV in the DFB-Pokal match on August 2, 2025. The win marked a significant milestone for the team, as they look to challenge for honours in the upcoming season.
The match began with a bang, as Noemi Gentile scored the opening goal for FC Carl Zeiss Jena in the 3rd minute. The rest of the first half saw both teams create opportunities, but it remained a one-goal game at the break.
In the second half, Isabella Jaron, affectionately known as "Bella" by her teammates, came to the fore. She scored the crucial second goal in the 59th minute, setting up an intermediate 2-0 lead for FC Carl Zeiss Jena. Jaron then sealed the victory with two more goals, in the 79th and 89th minutes, to secure a 4-0 triumph.
Coach Florian Kaestner was full of praise for his team's performance, particularly their defensive resilience and pressing game against Hamburger SV. He also highlighted Jaron's outstanding contribution to the team's success, stating that he hopes she will continue to deliver impressive performances in the coming weeks and months.
The win over Hamburg could be seen as a good omen for future matches, as the two teams have a history of high-scoring encounters. In their recent meetings, Carl Zeiss Jena have emerged victorious on three occasions, with Hamburger recording one win and there being one draw. The majority of goals in their matches tend to exceed 2.5 per game, with an average of 3.6 goals for Hamburger and 2.4 for Jena in their meetings.
However, Kaestner is cautious about overhyping the win over Hamburg and views it as a friendly, not comparable to a Bundesliga match or a DFB-Pokal game. He still has unfinished business with Hamburger SV and Bayer 04 Leverkusen, and is focused on helping his team settle scores with those opponents in the upcoming season.
It's worth noting that Jaron joined FC Carl Zeiss Jena from SPG Altach/Vorderland on loan for the second half of last season and recently made the move permanent. Her long-range shot set up the decisive goal in the 1-0 victory over 1. FC Cologne in late March, and she has since become a key player for the team.
