The wind whistles across the hard court on the outskirts of the city as a small group of young men pull up their socks. It's a cool morning in the early 1920s, yet there's a special energy in the air.

Analysis: A 0-0 draw doesn’t have to be boring
“Anyone who opens the newspaper tomorrow, sees the score as 0-0, and checks the weather forecast will think they shouldn't have gone to a match. But those who were at the stadium today certainly didn't regret it.” Florian Kohfeldt aptly summarised Sunday afternoon in Saarland with this comparison. The goalless draw between Darmstadt and SV Elversberg in the pouring rain was, even without a goal, a high-class second-division match in which both teams had their chances and proved that they rightfully belong in the top third of the table after 14 matchdays.

Approximately 50 people present at the Merck Stadium at Böllenfalltor experienced an unusual Saturday night: they spent the night on the stands and the players' benches. The underlying goal: to raise awareness of the social issue of homelessness and to gain a better understanding of the challenges faced by people without a home.
