Bielefeld could only hope for a miracle for a short time. But after an early lead, Arminia also loses the relegation second leg and is relegated.

SV Wehen Wiesbaden returns to the second division. The first leg had been cancelled due to riots by Bielefeld fans. The mood among the 24,000 spectators was initially hostile and directed against their own team. "We're Arminen and you're not!" resounded the pros as they warmed up. When the team line-up was read out, there was a whistling concert.
