The 2019-20 campaign was a turbulent, yet ultimately successful, survival fight for the Karnevalsverein as they secured a crucial 13th-place finish in the Bundesliga. The season was marked by managerial turmoil, with Sandro Schwarz being replaced by Achim Beierlorzer, and a heavy 8-0 defeat to RB Leipzig. Leading the charge through the difficult period was Swedish forward Robin Quaison, whose vital 13 goals anchored the attack and proved decisive in the desperate fight to avoid the drop. The team battled through inconsistency and the loss of key players to injury to secure their top-flight status, marking a defining chapter in the club's enduring grit and spirit.
