Match Report
Borussia Mönchengladbach ended their Bundesliga season in emphatic fashion, thrashing Hoffenheim 4-0 at Borussia-Park in a result that shattered the visitors' Champions League dreams at the final hurdle.
Hugo Bolin broke the deadlock in the 14th minute, and Haris Tabakovic — a former Hoffenheim player — twisted the knife nine minutes later following a sharp Yannik Engelhardt break. The evening turned disastrous for the visitors when Tim Lemperle — already booked in the first half — earned a red card just seconds into the second half for a reckless challenge on Kevin Diks. Down to ten men, Hoffenheim had no answer: Diks added a clinical third in the 81st minute and Robin Hack completed the rout in stoppage time.
For Hoffenheim, Europa League is now the ceiling — Champions League football slips away after a damaging final-day defeat. Gladbach, under coach Eugen Polanski, could hardly have signed off the season better, and the performance made a convincing case for continuity heading into 2026-27.
