Nassim “Nassada-” Dahman is the new German singles champion in eFootball following Levy Finn Rieck, who won last years season. At the end of the two-day VBL Grand Final Dahman won against Alihan “RBLZ_Alihanlion” Hadzhi of RB Leipzig 9-7 after extra time. “It’s unbelievable. A big thank you to everyone who supported me. That was a fantastic season,” Dahman said. With the victory, he secured prize money of €40,000.

Felix Rentschler, Head of the Virtual Bundesliga, who presented the championship trophy to the winner, said: “Congratulations to Nassim Dahman on his well-deserved title win. With eight wins from eight matches in the group stage and the final tournament, he was the most consistent player in the competition. On behalf of the DFL, I congratulate him on this brilliant achievement. Overall, we can draw a very positive conclusion at the end of the VBL season. The competitions impressed on several levels – from the reach achieved and the organisation of the events to the atmosphere on site and the sporting excitement during the tournaments. We look forward to continuing on this path with the players, clubs and partners next season.”

All participants in the grand final, which took place in Hamburg this time, can also look forward to qualifying for the EA SPORTS FC Pro World Championship.
