First game of the new season for Indieliga! 1860 played their first professional league game in their home, the Grünwalder Stadion, for 13 years. It’s been a long time in exile at the Allianz Arena. The sun was shining, and a real party atmosphere outside the ground, it was almost too hot! After a couple […]
SpVgg Unterhaching vs SV Wehen Wiesbaden
After the winter break it’s back to Unterhaching (south of Munich) for some 3. Liga action.

The dodgy fascist eagle below is from Hellas Verona, a notoriously right wing club, […]
SV Heimstetten vs SV Kirchanschöring

With both teams languishing towards to […]
