Third division club SSV Jahn Regensburg is the team of the moment. The league leaders are on the verge of a record.

What a final spurt in the match between Dynamo Dresden and SSV Jahn Regensburg. This top match in the 3rd division was exciting right up to the last second.

The visitors had the better end on their side: SSV Jahn won 1:0 (0:0) after 95 intense minutes in front of 29,578 spectators at the Rudolf-Harbig-Stadion and thus pushed Dresden off the top of the table. Florian Ballas headed a corner from Tobias Eisenhuth into the net in stoppage time to score the winner and silence the Dynamo fans.

With this goal, Ballas not only secured the lead in the table for his team, but also their ninth (!) win in a row. The last time head coach Joe Enochs’ team did not leave the pitch as winners was on September 23rd in a 2:1 home defeat against SV Sandhausen. Regensburg have now won every game for over two months.

It is no great surprise that the leaders are on course for a record. Ten three-pointers in a row is the best record in the history of the 3rd division. This record was set by Karlsruher SC in the 2012/13 season. At that time, the team from Baden won everything there was to win in the league between October 24 and January 26 and celebrated promotion to the 2nd division at the end of the season

Regensburg are also well on the way to returning to the second division. The lead over third-placed SC Verl and fourth-placed Rot-Weiss Essen is already a whopping ten points.

To equal KSC’s record in the third division, the top club must defeat relegation-threatened SC Freiburg II on Sunday afternoon (December 3, 4:30 p.m.). On paper, a very easy task, but as we all know, anything is possible in this 3rd division.

If they manage a three-pointer against Freiburg II, SSV Jahn Regensburg could claim the sole record with a home win against Viktoria Köln on the following matchday (10 December, 1.30pm) and immortalize themselves in the history books of the 3rd division.
