Kevin Großkreutz is happy about the rise of TuS Bövinghausen in the Oberliga

Coach Tyrala thanks the team

After the promotion of TuS Bövinghausen to the Oberliga Westfalen, coach Sebastian Tyrala thanked his team, which was peppered with ex-professionals like Kevin Großkreutz. “I have to pay my team a huge compliment. One should not take the ascent for granted. Everyone always told us that we absolutely had to get promoted and that obviously puts a certain amount of pressure on the players. We struggled a lot in every game. The whole village was always there against us, and every team gave even more against us. That’s why I’m really very proud, and the boys have more than earned the promotion,” explained Tyrala (quoted via “Responsive sport‘), who played for Borussia Dortmund and Greuther Fürth during his active career.

On the 31st match day, the club from the Westphalian League 2 was able to celebrate early because pursuer DJK TuS Hordel lost during the week and Bövinghausen, who played in the district league A four years ago, won 3-2 on Saturday evening. Also on the pitch was Großkreutz, who joined the club in early 2021 and scored the winning goal in the 91st minute against Hagen. “We made it. Promotion to the premier league. Huge respect to our coaches and the team – you deserve it. We had a bad phase and then the envious people came around the corner… Statements like ‘that’s not a team’, ‘they can’t do it’ etc. Nobody knows us because we stuck together and always stayed calm. That’s just the wages you deserve,” wrote the former Dortmunder on Instagram.

In addition to the 33-year-old, other well-known names such as Sebastian Mützel (including SpVgg Unterhaching, RW Oberhausen) and David Odonkor (including BVB) are also part of the squad.
