VfB Stuttgart made it easily and easily into the round of 16 of the DFB Cup. The game was decided early on against second division bottom Arminia Bielefeld.
For interim coach Michael Wimmer, the 6-0 win was the second win in the second game. Four days earlier, the Swabians had achieved their first win of the season in the Bundesliga.
Worth seeing was the opening goal of VfB in the 20th minute by Pascal Stenzel. From 20 meters he curled the ball into the right corner of the goal. The amazed Arminia keeper Martin Fraisl showed no reaction at all.
Bielefeld after a deficit without resistance
The guests were desolate after falling behind and hardly made any resistance. In the 24th minute, Wataru Endo made it 2-0. After a corner, he was completely free in the six-yard box and headed the ball into the goal.
In the 29th minute, Luca Pfeiffer scored from close range to make it 3-0. And in the 40th minute, Silas Katompa Mvumpa made it 4-0 with a bounce. The score went into the break with this score.
After the change of sides, the Swabians continued to score goals. After a through ball, Pfeiffer appeared free in front of the Bielefeld box and pushed the ball through Fraisl’s legs into the goal (52′).
In the 67th minute, Serhou Guirassy, who came on as a substitute five minutes earlier, was on the scoresheet. Again Stuttgart could combine undisturbed. And Guirassy finished from around eleven meters with a powerful shot into the left corner to make it 6-0.
