Budissa Bautzen vs Dynamo Dresden

The 2. Bundesliga side needed only five minutes to open the scoring through A. Riedel. From there, the goals came in relentless waves. Left-back A. Rossipal made it 2-0 in the 23rd minute, J. Lemmer added a third three minutes later, and C. Daferner struck twice — in the 34th and 43rd minutes — to make it 5-0. Riedel doubled his account in first-half stoppage time (45+1), sending Dresden into the break with a 6-0 lead.

The second half was even more punishing. K. Inanoglu started the rout with a 50th-minute strike, followed by F. Muller (56'), before V. Vermeij took centre stage. The Dutch striker scored a quickfire double in the 58th and 63rd minutes, J. Sterner added an 11th (65'), and Vermeij completed his hat-trick in the 73rd minute. Inanoglu added two more late on (84', 89') to seal a personal treble and a 14-0 final scoreline.

The very first minute. Budissa Bautzen, a fifth-tier NOFV-Oberliga Süd side, were never realistically expected to contain a professional opponent with a full preseason behind them. Riedel's fifth-minute opener removed any trace of competitive tension, and the gulf in fitness, pace and technical quality became apparent across every department. The 6-0 half-time scoreline simply reflected the gap between Germany's second tier and the fifth.

V. Vermeij — The Dutch striker's hat-trick (58', 63', 73') came in a 15-minute span, demonstrating the sharpness that will be crucial for Dresden's 2. Bundesliga campaign. He finished his chances with composure and led the line effectively.

K. Inanoglu — Also scored a hat-trick (50', 84', 89'), with two late goals that showed his willingness to keep pressing even when the result was long settled. His movement off the ball caused constant problems.

C. Daferner — A brace in first-half (34', 43') helped break the game open. The experienced forward was a consistent threat in the air and on the ground.

A. Riedel — Two goals (5', 45+1) including the opener that set the tone. His early strike settled any early nerves.

The 14-0 scoreline, while extreme, tells you less about Dresden's quality and more about the scale of the opposition. Budissa Bautzen compete in the fifth-tier NOFV-Oberliga Süd with a squad valued at near-zero transfer market value, while Dresden are a full-time professional outfit preparing for a 2. Bundesliga season that begins in early August 2026. The match had no yellow or red cards, reflecting its friendly nature. Dresden scored 14 goals from open play with no penalties — a testament to their movement and finishing against a defence that simply could not cope with the pace of the game.

For Dynamo Dresden, this is a functional preseason workout — a chance to build match fitness and give minutes to as many squad players as possible. The 2. Bundesliga side will face sterner tests in the coming weeks, with a reported friendly against 1. FC Magdeburg and other fixtures scheduled as part of their build-up to the 2026-27 season. Budissa Bautzen, meanwhile, will use this as a learning experience ahead of their own Oberliga campaign, which kicks off later in the summer.

A 14-0 scoreline in a preseason friendly is a curiosity, not a statement. Dresden did exactly what a 2. Bundesliga side should do against a fifth-tier opponent: they showed no mercy and got 90 minutes of sharp attacking work into their legs. The real tests begin when the competitive season starts.
