Jahn Regensburg II vs Nordlingen

Jahn Regensburg II started brightly and took an early lead. Noa Rettich found the net in the 9th minute, scoring his first goal of the season to put the hosts ahead after a promising attacking move. The U21 side of SSV Jahn Regensburg controlled much of the first half and went into the break 1-0 up.

Nördlingen, making the step up after switching from the Bayernliga Süd to the Nord staffel this season, grew into the game after the interval. The visitors pushed for an equaliser and were rewarded in the 75th minute when substitute Tim Seidler converted from the penalty spot — his first goal of the campaign — to level the score.

Neither side could find a winner in the closing stages. The match finished with two yellow cards: Rettich for the hosts and Niveto Caciel for Nördlingen.

The introduction of Tim Seidler changed the dynamic for Nördlingen. Coming on as a substitute, the forward won and converted the penalty that cancelled out Regensburg's early lead. The equaliser marked Nördlingen's first point since moving to the Bayernliga Nord this season.

• Noa Rettich (Jahn Regensburg II) — Scored the opening goal in the 9th minute with a composed finish. Also received a yellow card but was the hosts' most dangerous attacking threat before being substituted.
• Tim Seidler (Nördlingen) — The substitute made the decisive contribution, scoring from the penalty spot in the 75th minute to rescue a point for the visitors.
• Benjamin Lottes (Jahn Regensburg II) — The goalkeeper kept Nördlingen at bay for 75 minutes and could do little about the well-taken penalty.

Player of the match: Tim Seidler (Nördlingen)

The Bayernliga Nord matchday 2 roundup from the Bavarian Football Association (BFV) confirmed this was a tale of two halves. Jahn Regensburg II struck early and held their lead through the break, but Nördlingen's second-half pressure — driven by their substitutes — eventually told. For Regensburg's U21 side, it was their second draw in as many games after the opening 3-3 thriller at Würzburger FV 04. Nördlingen, meanwhile, collected their first point after a 2-0 defeat to DJK Gebenbach on the opening weekend.

The match drew 130 spectators at the Sportpark am Kaulbachweg, per Transfermarkt data.

Both teams are still searching for their first win of the 2026/27 Bayernliga Nord campaign. Jahn Regensburg II sit on 2 points from two draws (3-3 at Würzburger FV on 18 July, 1-1 vs Nördlingen), while Nördlingen have 1 point from a 2-0 opening loss to DJK Gebenbach and this 1-1 draw.

A fair result in a game where the early goal failed to kill off a resilient Nördlingen side. Jahn Regensburg II will rue not building on their bright start, while Nördlingen's point — secured via a penalty from a substitute — could prove valuable as they adjust to life in the Nord staffel.
