The year began triumphantly, with the club securing the prestigious UEFA Intertoto Cup, earning a place in the UEFA Cup. Spearheading the attack with characteristic drive was the brilliant Marko Pantelić, whose 14 league goals proved vital for the side. Despite a brief, disappointing run in the UEFA Cup, the team showed resilience by reaching the quarter-finals of the DFB-Pokal, making this a stable year that cemented the club's status and provided flashes of excitement for the faithful supporters.
