Elversberg earned promotion to the Bundesliga by beating relegated Preussen Munster 3-0. Bambase Conte and David Mokwa scored early to put Elversberg ahead within 15 minutes, and Mokwa added a second midway through the second half to secure the win and a second-place finish. The town of Spiesen-Elversberg has about 13,000 residents, making it the smallest town represented in the Bundesliga. Supporters flooded onto the pitch at the 10,000-capacity Waldstadion an der Kaiserlinde after the club’s third promotion in five years. Elversberg previously missed promotion after losing 4-3 on aggregate to Heidenheim in the promotion-relegation play-off. The club’s stadium is being renovated to meet Bundesliga standards, with capacity expected to rise to 15,000 by spring 2027.
