Stuttgart celebrates 4-0 victory and breaks the winless series!

VfB Stuttgart caused a sensation on April 5, 2025 with an impressive 4-0 victory over VfL Bochum in the Bundesliga. This victory marked the end of a six-game without a winless series in the league for the Stuttgart. Julian Chabot scored the first goal in the 8th minute, followed by Ermedin Demirovic, who added in the 11th minute and later scored two more goals in the 48th and 85th minute. Demirovic laced a remarkable triple pack that underlined its strong shape.

VfL Bochum, on the other hand, could not prevail in this game and experienced the third defeat in a row. This remains the penultimate team and has not scored for around four weeks; Bochum celebrated the last success against Bayern Munich (3-2) about four weeks ago. The Stuttgarters were certain of their cause and despite the efforts of the Bochumer, they were unable to get dangerously in front of Alexander Nübel's goal.

game course and important scenes

The game started promising for Stuttgart. After the first twelve minutes, they led 2-0, and the early construction game was shaped by Stiller dominance. Fabian Rieder had the chance to expand the lead in the 30th minute, but his shot landed on the post. On the other hand, a hit by Georgios Masouras for Bochum could not be recognized because he shot the ball out of his goalkeeper.

Stuttgart was also without the blocked players Angelo Stiller and Maximilian Mittelstädt as well as Ameen Al-Dakhil and Deniz Undav, which were left out due to a gastrointestinal infert. The substitute players nevertheless performed strongly and ensured a dominant appearance of the team.

relegation battle and Bochum future

VfL Bochum is under pressure in view of this defeat. With only 17 points and a goal difference from -24, the Situation in the relegation battle is becoming increasingly critical. The path to the rescue seems to be stony, especially since the team has to compete in the coming games against strong opponents such as Bayern Munich, Eintracht Frankfurt and Bayer Leverkusen. The location gives rise to concern, because the gap to the saving place is now four points.

The impressive comeback of VfB Stuttgart could not fit better in the course of the season. On Wednesday before, the team reached the DFB Cup final after defeating RB Leipzig 3-1. It remains to be seen whether the momentum of success can be maintained in the next games. The return to the form could give the team additional motivation, while Bochum now needs a turn to escape the impending relegation crisis.
