Bochum and Holstein Kiel relegated from Bundesliga and Leipzig fails to reach Champions League

  • On Saturday, both Bochum and Holstein Kiel were demoted from the Bundesliga after defeats in their final matches, while Leipzig’s draw against Werder Bremen ended their chances of qualifying for the Champions League.
  • Bochum hoped to secure at least a draw while relying on Union Berlin to slip up against Heidenheim, but they suffered a 4-1 home defeat to Mainz. Meanwhile, Kiel was beaten 2-1 at home by Freiburg, confirming the end of both teams’ Bundesliga campaigns.
  • Bochum’s drop from the top tier brings an end to an 11-year run following their 2021 promotion as champions of the second division, while Kiel, having entered the top flight for the inaugural time just last season, will swiftly return to the second division under the guidance of coach Marcel Rapp.
  • Freiburg’s win consolidated fourth place, moving four points clear of Leipzig, whose goalless draw at Werder Bremen left them with no chance of Champions League qualification with one game remaining.
  • Heidenheim secured at least a relegation playoff spot by winning 3-0 at Union Berlin, while Bochum and Kiel confirmed automatic relegation with no possibility of catching Heidenheim as one round remains in the season.
