"Our First & Maybe Only Final!" | SC Freiburg | Once In a Lifetime

🚨 Deutsche Untertitel verfügbar 🚨

Football, more than any other sport, is about sharing stories. Stories about places, stories about people, stories about culture.

And so as the last decade has seen an unprecedented dominance of a select few ‘big’ clubs winning almost every trophy available, we have missed out on those new stories that football so brilliantly tells.

So last season we sent Eli Mengem on a journey, to document the few ‘smaller’ clubs who somehow did have a chance at winning something, in order to share the new stories we’ve all been missing out on.

From the south of Spain to the north of Turkey to the south west of Germany, Once in a lifetime is a new series telling the story of three very different clubs made up of three very different people, in three very different places, that all share one thing in common. A very long wait to win something.

For our final episode, we headed to the very pretty city of Freiburg, home to SC Freiburg.
A club who don't have any history in winning things on the pitch, but don't really mind, as their fans prefer to take pride in their achievements off it, which is all part of the regions calm and laidback attitude to living life.

And so when the club qualified for their first final in 118 years, we travelled to Freiburg, then with the fans to Berlin to see just what happens to the most relaxed fanbase in Germany when they are on the cusp of finally winning something.

This is Once In a Lifetime.
