Important Information Regarding Ticket Pre-sales for the Match Against Hoffenheim

Due to current technical issues at Microsoft, today’s member presale for the match against TSG 1899 Hoffenheim (Friday, 13 November, starting at 12 p.m.) will, as an exception, take place without email authorization.

A waiting room will still be activated before the presale begins. The exact time at which you enter the waiting room does not matter. Members will be randomly redirected to the ticket shop without having to enter a verification code. This ensures that all fans have an equal chance.

How did this decision come about?<\/b> \nCarsten Cramer:<\/b> \u201cFirst of all, it\u2019s important for me to emphasize that we did not make this decision alone, but together with Rheinmetall. We are, of course, aware that our partnership has been the subject of controversy from the very beginning. We are familiar with the criticism from our members and from some of the fans. At the 2024 general member\u2019s assembly, the members voted on a motion not to extend the partnership agreement with Rheinmetall beyond 2027. We naturally took this into account and took it seriously in our discussions with Rheinmetall.\u201d <\/p>\n Mr. Papperger, how did you perceive the dialogue with BVB on this issue?<\/b> \nArmin Papperger:<\/b> \u201cThe dialogue was very open, constructive, and based on trust\u2014just as our entire partnership has been from the very beginning. Carsten Cramer and I spoke very transparently about what matters to BVB and its members. We were equally open in sharing our own considerations. The result of our discussions is the decision in question, which we reached together after careful consideration.\u201d<\/p>\n Mr. Cramer, you\u2019re still considered a personal advocate of the partnership. How difficult was this decision for you?<\/b> \nCarsten Cramer:<\/b> \u201cYes, I still am. That\u2019s why the decision wasn\u2019t easy for me. But if we\u2019re speaking out so clearly in favor of 50+1, and if the solidarity and unity of BVB is as important as they are to me, then we simply have to consider all perspectives and all the concerns of our stakeholders and, ultimately, make a decision.\u201d <\/p>\n<img src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2026/11/13/bvb-v-/Rheinmetall-Cramer-Armin.jpg\" data-assetref=\"Rheinmetall-Cramer-Armin-1794587673822\"> <\/p>\n And how does the dialogue with members work when it comes to such decisions?<\/b> \nCarsten Cramer:<\/b> \u201cDialogue, engagement, and criticism are expressly encouraged as part of our dialogue with our membership, and we listen. BVB needs constructive debate. Anyone who wants to take on responsibility for our club must also accept the economic reality and, ideally, contribute ideas and solutions. However, this must remain an absolute exception and an isolated case. Otherwise, we\u2019ll seriously jeopardize the trust we\u2019ve worked so hard to build in the business community.\u201d<\/p>\nMr. Papperger, why did Rheinmetall decide to partner with BVB in 2024, and what impact has the partnership had from your perspective?<\/b> \nArmin Papperger:<\/b> \u201cWe entered into this partnership with great conviction, as did BVB. Security and defense capabilities are issues that, now more than ever, belong at the heart of society, and a football club like Borussia Dortmund, with its influence, reaches more people than almost any other social actor. We have achieved these goals after three years. We knew that a collaboration like this would spark discussion. We certainly anticipated that. It\u2019s the only way to open up spaces for discourse, and debates like these were - and remain - important and will continue to be actively pursued. Many of our employees have also become true BVB fans over the past few years. For me, that\u2019s a wonderful outcome, and I\u2019m sure it will stay that way.\u201d<\/p>\nMr. Cramer, how important was this partnership for BVB from a financial perspective?<\/b> \nCarsten Cramer:<\/b> \u201cAs a KGaA, we bear responsibility for BVB\u2019s athletic, financial, and social future. It would therefore be a lie to say that financial considerations weren\u2019t also a factor. We will no longer have the revenue from the sponsorship agreement starting in the summer of 2027 - that\u2019s a fact. This reduces our financial flexibility. We\u2019ll have to reprioritize planned investments and critically examine how we can find sustainable solutions. I\u2019ll also speak openly about this at the upcoming general members\u2019 assembly. \nSponsorship agreements are generally very important for football clubs. Among other things, they help us finance infrastructure, players, and our stadium, and keep up with international competition. Without such partners, it would be a significant challenge to compensate for lost revenue. After all, costs aren\u2019t going down, and we still have a lot planned at BVB.\u201d<\/p>\nMr. Papperger, Rheinmetall will continue to support BVB in the future. What can you say about that?<\/b> \nArmin Papperger:<\/b> \u201cNot as an official partner anymore - that\u2019s true. But we\u2019ll definitely remain connected. As I mentioned earlier, many Rheinmetall employees have become fans in recent years and have even founded their own fan club. They want to continue being part of the stadium experience. In that regard, I\u2019m glad that our box will remain. For us, this is a sign of our connection to the club and the region. In addition, we\u2019ll continue to carry out joint initiatives, such as supporting Ukrainian children at the football academy.\u201d <\/p>\nMr. Cramer, what does this mean specifically for Rheinmetall\u2019s visibility in connection with Borussia Dortmund?<\/b> \nCarsten Cramer:<\/b> \u201cThere will no longer be a traditional sponsorship agreement, and consequently, no advertising board or branding. But as Armin has already emphasized: Rheinmetall has thousands of employees, and naturally, many of them are BVB fans who certainly identify more strongly with the club because of the partnership. We will also not let up in our joint social engagement - especially for children and young people in need from war-torn regions of Ukraine - and will continue to remain active together.\u201d <\/p>\nMr. Papperger, what does this joint commitment mean to you?<\/b> \nArmin Papperger:<\/b> \u201cThis commitment is very meaningful to me personally, and certainly to Carsten and BVB as well.

FFC Recklinghausen and 6-1 against Fortuna Cologne), the Borussia Dortmund women\u2019s soccer team has further solidified its top position in the Regionalliga West. Looking back on the match in Cologne\u2019s Südstadt district, Markus Högner highlights the goals scored shortly before and, above all, after halftime: \u201cA 3\u20130 halftime lead can certainly be deceptive, so it was important to make a statement right at the start of the second half. In an away game that wasn\u2019t always easy, that gave us the confidence we needed. Even after conceding our first goal of the season, we managed to respond immediately.\u201d<\/p>\n<img data-assetref=\"bvb-fortuna-1794569558177\" src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2026/11/13/vorbericht-frauen-derby/bvb-fortuna.jpg\"><\/p>\n<h2>Roster<\/h2>\nAs was the case last weekend, Marina Scholz will also have to sit out the Revierderby. Forward Dana Marquardt and goalkeeper Manuela Zinsberger continue to train on a limited basis but are not yet options for this coming Sunday.<\/p>\n<h2>Opponent<\/h2>\nThe FC Schalke 04 women\u2019s team was promoted from the Westfalenliga to the Regionalliga last season as the dominant league leader (23 wins in 24 games with a goal difference of 153\u201312). The Royal Blues are also having a strong season there so far and are currently BVB\u2019s closest pursuers. Markus Högner, who had already spoken very respectfully about the opponent at the start of the week, says: \u201cThey struggled a bit with injuries during the first half of the season and also had to adjust to the new league. However, Schalke has a high-quality roster that was recently bolstered by the addition of Jette ter Horst, whom I still know from my time in Essen.\u201d In addition to a strong offense\u2014which, according to the coach, can decide games on its own\u2014the Gelsenkirchen team has conceded only nine goals in eleven games. <\/p>\n<h2>Derby, Emotions, Record Attendance<\/h2>\nThe high-profile matchup between Borussia Dortmund and FC Schalke 04 has already taken place four times in the still-young history of the BVB Women team: In the 2024\u201325 Westfalenliga season, the Borussia Dortmund women remained undefeated (0\u20130 and 2\u20131); in the Westfalen Cup final that same season, the Black and Yellows also came out on top with a 2\u20130 victory. Markus Högner\u2019s team suffered a frustrating defeat about a year ago at Gelsenkirchen\u2019s Parkstadion, when they were narrowly eliminated 1\u20132 in the round of 16 of the Westfalen Cup. \u201cThe Revierderby is always emotionally charged,\u201d says the Dortmund coach. \u201cThat makes it all the more important on Sunday that we execute all the goals we\u2019ve set for ourselves on the field and don\u2019t let any potential frantic pace in the game get to us. I expect the team to put on an intense performance and to draw on and harness the energy from the stands.\u201d<\/p>\n<img data-assetref=\"hoegner-1794570025190\" src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2026/11/13/vorbericht-frauen-derby/hoegner.jpg\"><\/p>\nThe conditions for an impressive crowd are definitely in place: The Revierderby against the women of FC Schalke 04, which kicks off Sunday at 3 p.m. at Rote Erde Stadium, is completely sold out with 17,555 tickets sold!

FFC Recklinghausen and 6-1 against Fortuna Cologne), the Borussia Dortmund women\u2019s soccer team has further solidified its top position in the Regionalliga West. Looking back on the match in Cologne\u2019s Südstadt district, Markus Högner highlights the goals scored shortly before and, above all, after halftime: \u201cA 3\u20130 halftime lead can certainly be deceptive, so it was important to make a statement right at the start of the second half. In an away game that wasn\u2019t always easy, that gave us the confidence we needed. Even after conceding our first goal of the season, we managed to respond immediately.\u201d<\/p>\n<img data-assetref=\"bvb-fortuna-1794569558177\" src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2026/11/13/vorbericht-frauen-derby/bvb-fortuna.jpg\"><\/p>\n<h2>Roster<\/h2>\nAs was the case last weekend, Marina Scholz will also have to sit out the Revierderby. Forward Dana Marquardt and goalkeeper Manuela Zinsberger continue to train on a limited basis but are not yet options for this coming Sunday.<\/p>\n<h2>Opponent<\/h2>\nThe FC Schalke 04 women\u2019s team was promoted from the Westfalenliga to the Regionalliga last season as the dominant league leader (23 wins in 24 games with a goal difference of 153\u201312). The Royal Blues are also having a strong season there so far and are currently BVB\u2019s closest pursuers. Markus Högner, who had already spoken very respectfully about the opponent at the start of the week, says: \u201cThey struggled a bit with injuries during the first half of the season and also had to adjust to the new league. However, Schalke has a high-quality roster that was recently bolstered by the addition of Jette ter Horst, whom I still know from my time in Essen.\u201d In addition to a strong offense\u2014which, according to the coach, can decide games on its own\u2014the Gelsenkirchen team has conceded only nine goals in eleven games. <\/p>\n<h2>Derby, Emotions, Record Attendance<\/h2>\nThe high-profile matchup between Borussia Dortmund and FC Schalke 04 has already taken place four times in the still-young history of the BVB Women team: In the 2024\u201325 Westfalenliga season, the Borussia Dortmund women remained undefeated (0\u20130 and 2\u20131); in the Westfalen Cup final that same season, the Black and Yellows also came out on top with a 2\u20130 victory. Markus Högner\u2019s team suffered a frustrating defeat about a year ago at Gelsenkirchen\u2019s Parkstadion, when they were narrowly eliminated 1\u20132 in the round of 16 of the Westfalen Cup. \u201cThe Revierderby is always emotionally charged,\u201d says the Dortmund coach. \u201cThat makes it all the more important on Sunday that we execute all the goals we\u2019ve set for ourselves on the field and don\u2019t let any potential frantic pace in the game get to us. I expect the team to put on an intense performance and to draw on and harness the energy from the stands.\u201d<\/p>\n<img data-assetref=\"hoegner-1794570025190\" src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2026/11/13/vorbericht-frauen-derby/hoegner.jpg\"><\/p>\nThe conditions for an impressive crowd are definitely in place: The Revierderby against the women of FC Schalke 04, which kicks off Sunday at 3 p.m. at Rote Erde Stadium, is completely sold out with 17,555 tickets sold! This means the previous attendance record in the Women\u2019s Regional League will also be broken at Strobelallee: In May 2026, 14,500 fans watched the match between Hertha BSC and 1.
