londonerlilie Posted May 22, 2022 Posted May 22, 2022 After this years DFB Pokal was cancelled just before the final for mysterious reasons and no winner was crowned, we will have the next iteration starting very soon. This Traditionsreiche tournament will be watched far and wide and may the best team lift the cup!
Rucksackfranzose Posted May 24, 2022 Posted May 24, 2022 Know the old season didn't end yet, since the first round draw wil be on Sunday, May the 29th, it seems appropriate to create this topic, though. Also came in to moan about the round of 16 been divided into two weeks. Know that football became too commercialised long time ago, still this is a reminder how much I despise that. Anyway, here are the dates: First round July the 29th til August the 1st + 30th + 31th of August Although it's understandable Bayern and their opponents play only at the end of August since the Supercup will be played on the 30th of July, I can see no good reason why they postponed two matches. Second round October, the 18th and 19th Round of 16 January the 31st/ Feb the 1st + Feb the 7th/8th Already gave my two cent, booo. Quarterfinals April the4th and 5th Semifinals May the 2nd and 3rd Final June the 3rd

Administrator Stan Posted May 24, 2022 Administrator Posted May 24, 2022 Done. What's the reason for the 2-week split for Round of 16?

There was a new TV deal with some bidders offering more money if the sum of games at the same time would be reduced. This is a consequence of that.
Rucksackfranzose Posted May 29, 2022 Posted May 29, 2022 Kevin Großkreutz has drawn the following matches: Regensburg - Köln Engers - Bielefeld Lübeck - Rostock Kaan-Marienborn - Nürnberg Schott Mainz - Hannover Neustrelitz - Karlsruhe Ottensen - Leipzig Dresden - VFB Stuttgart Viktoria Berlin - Bochum Chemnitz - Union Berlin Elversberg - Leverkusen Rehden - Sandhausen Wernigerode - Paderborn Rödinghausen - Hoffenheim Illertissen - Heidenheim Offenbach - Düsseldorf Braunschweig - Hertha BSC Berlin 1860 München - Dortmund Kaiserslautern - Freiburg Oberachern - Mönchengladbach Ingolstadt - Darmstadt Waldhof - Kiel Lohne - Augsburg Straelen - St Pauli Bayreuth - Hamburg Aue - Mainz Cottbus - Werder Bremen Bremer SV - Schalke Jena - Wolfsburg Stuttgarter Kickers - Fürth Viktoria Köln - Bayern München Magdeburg - Frankfurt Elversberg were matched up with Leverkusen, and 1860 were drawn with Dortmund. Seeing this can't eat as much as I would like to vomit FCS neither won Saarland-Pokal nor finished on 4th spot in 3. Liga.
londonerlilie Posted May 29, 2022 Author Posted May 29, 2022 Worst possible match-up we could have had. Not to sound rude but really no one wanted Ingolstadt as the opponent. Was really hoping for Mannheim or Offenbach so that there'd be a bit of fire in the game. Oh well, I think we could get through to the second round as long as we keep ourselves focussed.

So we got Offenbach. Sounds easy on paper, but we're known for infamous first round knockouts. Hopefully things will change under Thioune.
Rucksackfranzose Posted July 28, 2022 Posted July 28, 2022 Somewhat surprised DFB scheduled 3 matches at the same time the women's Euro final will be played. Wondering if they indeed want to promote women's football to the extent they always claim.
Subscriber Coma+ Posted July 28, 2022 Subscriber Posted July 28, 2022 Upset predictions anyone? Give me your dream upset and your predicted upset.
Rucksackfranzose Posted July 28, 2022 Posted July 28, 2022 Dream upset: Ottensen winning versus Austrian piss preferably by quite a lot. Predicted upset: Hertha BSC losing at Braunschweig, if this qualifies as upset.

Rucksackfranzose Posted July 30, 2022 Posted July 30, 2022 A few upsets on the cards? Regensburg leading Köln 2-1, Elversberg leading Leverkusen 3-2, and Bayreuth leading HSV 1-0 at half time.
Rucksackfranzose Posted July 30, 2022 Posted July 30, 2022 While Bayreuth - HSV and Regensburg - Köln are in extra time, Elversberg indeed won 4-3 versus Leverkusen - so we got our first cup upset.
nudge Posted July 30, 2022 Posted July 30, 2022 Leverkusen will have a lot of fun in the league with that defence...
Rucksackfranzose Posted July 30, 2022 Posted July 30, 2022 Lübeck 1-0 Rostock - aw also Regensburg won the penalty shootout. Two Buli clubs already out of DFB - Pokal, would be amazing, if there were more to follow.
Moderator Tommy Posted July 30, 2022 Moderator Posted July 30, 2022 Offenbach - Düsseldorf 0:1 at half-time. Hoffmann brought us the lead with a header after a corner. Heated atmosphere at the Bieberer Berg, and it took us 15-20 minutes to find our way into the match. After that we were pretty much in control, but Offenbach still had a few dangerous counter attacks. So we are not quite out of the woods yet.
Moderator Tommy Posted July 30, 2022 Moderator Posted July 30, 2022 Pretty dominant result in the end. I thought it's going to be a tough ride when Offenbach pulled one back to 1:2, but a nice goal from Kristoffer Peterson and a brace from Daniel Ginczek sealed Offenbach's fate. The commentator said that Offenbach play Wormatia Worms next and I couldn't stop thinking about what a funny club name that is, especially to English speaking people.
Rucksackfranzose Posted July 30, 2022 Posted July 30, 2022 5th tier club Stuttgarter Kickers won 2-0 versus Fürth.

It's not even as if Leverkusen rested loads of first team players, they pretty much played their best team, with the exception of maybe 2 or 3 players. I think that they really need to get their act together before the Bundesliga starts, because that was an embarrassing result and performance by them against Elversberg.
