Bavarian Loan Works: VfB Stuttgart lifts DFB-Pokal, Heidenheim avoids relegation
Briefly

Despite Bayern Munich's season ending, several of their loanees had significant moments. Alexander Nübel excelled at VfB Stuttgart, helping them win the DFB-Pokal against Arminia Bielefeld, thus securing a spot in next season's Europa League. Conversely, Franz Krätzig's experience with 1.FC Heidenheim was challenging, as he participated in a relegation playoff against Elversberg. While Krätzig had a strong first leg, his form waned in the return match, contributing to a tense situation for his team as they faced potential relegation.
Alexander Nübel had a stellar performance in the DFB-Pokal Final, leading Stuttgart to a 4-2 victory and securing their first cup since 1997.
Franz Krätzig displayed creativity and effort in the Bundesliga relegation playoff, though his performance dipped in the second leg against Elversberg.
