Season story
The 1965/66 season was the only Bundesliga season of Tasmania 1900 Berlin — and it went down as the worst in history. With just two wins, four draws and 28 defeats, plus a goal difference of 15:108, the team were relegated with only ten points. No Bundesliga side had ever produced such a dismal record.
The club was not originally qualified for the Bundesliga. Only after Hertha BSC's license was withdrawn did Tasmania move up, without being truly equipped for the top flight. The team was overwhelmed and opponents ruthlessly exploited every mistake. Still, Tasmania managed one success: a 2-0 win over 1. FC Nürnberg, who had recently been champions.
This season remains a warning example of what happens when a club is not on the level of a league. For 34-0-0, Tasmania are the built-in "free hit" — but also a nice reminder that even the weakest team in history can win once.
Tasmania's 1965/66 record — two wins, four draws, 28 defeats, 15:108 goals — remains unmatched to this day: no Bundesliga club has ever finished worse. At the same time, the 2-0 win over Nürnberg stands as a monument to the fact that even the weakest season can contain a magical moment. For your 34-0-0 chase, Tasmania is the friendliest reminder of football's humility: never lose concentration, or precisely this game becomes the headline. Looking at Tasmania's record in 34-0-0, you understand why the perfect season is so special: because it begins exactly where other stories end. And because a single bad day against the bottom side can destroy any perfect record, Tasmania is also a test of your nerves.
In 34-0-0, Tasmania 1965/66 are the weakest team in the entire game (Strength 68). Lose to them and you should be ashamed. Beat them and you have done exactly what was expected.
