VfB Stuttgart are the new champions of the DFB-Pokal after a dominant 5–1 victory over third-tier Cinderella story Arminia Bielefeld in the 2024/25 German Cup final.

Though Arminia had captured the hearts of many fans with their fairytale run from the 3. Liga to the final in Berlin, their dream ended in brutal fashion. Stuttgart raced into a 4–0 lead within the first 60 minutes, showing no mercy in their pursuit of silverware.

Nick Woltemade opened the scoring early, before Enzo Millot added a brace and Deniz Undav got on the scoresheet with a clinical finish.
