FC Hansa Rostock won the North-West Division title in the FIFA 22 Virtual Bundesliga Club Championship in its debut season. Only on the last double matchday the Rostock team passed SV Werder Bremen.

It was decided by Henning "Henning" Wilmbusse and Levy Finn "Levyfinn" Rieck in the duel with Hannover 96. Three goals from the Hanseatic League within the last ten minutes and the players of the newly crowned division champion were in each other's arms and hopped.

Rostock scouted the players in their own region. Levyfinn was still playing at the level of an average hobby player last year, he revealed. "I didn't play a qualifier last year because I was too bad. You can see from this: training pays off," said Levyfinn.

In addition to Rostock, Hamburger SV made it directly into the final round of the VBL Club Championship as the runner-up. Werder Bremen, FC St. Pauli, 1. FC Köln and Hannover 96 qualified for the playoffs and will meet the opponents from the South-East division for the first time in the current season next week.
