Subscriber Viva la FCB+ Posted April 5, 2023 Subscriber Posted April 5, 2023 Unfortunate. Two mistakes directly lead to both goals; World class strike from Hofler but Coman has to clear that better and no complaints about the handball from Musiala... thats just a lapse. Not trying to take away credit from Freiburg they played an excellent match, very tight at the back, they left their all on the pitch and credit to them, Im rooting for them going forward. But at the end of the day its not a match we should have lost, not good enough up front. Even the subs... Müller going up top just has never worked. Maybe that speaks to lack of options again as our only other #9 when Choups comes out is a 17 year old Tel, even then he might look more like a winger... but I digress. Mane just hasn't been good enough since a handful of matches to start the season. It was always a tall ask of Tuchel so Ill reserve judgement on him, much like Nag's I still think this is more on the players to be better. One of our best couple players on the day was Cancelo, good for him but not for the rest of the team.
Moderator Tommy Posted April 5, 2023 Moderator Posted April 5, 2023 I'm still baffled that Upamecano's goal stood. He had both of his hands on Eggestein's shoulders and pushed him down. Even Flick said at half-time that it should have been ruled off.

I also dont understand how that wasn't even a foul on Choupo as hes beating seemingly the last man back and had his arms all over him, dont remember who the defender was but late first half? idk man some weird decisions.
Rucksackfranzose Posted April 6, 2023 Posted April 6, 2023 Here's a useless but funny stat, Stuttgart used 4 managers to reach the semifinals, which is more than the three other semifinalists count together (3).

Didn't Marco Rose join Fizzy midseason? But I get your point. I posted this in Discord... that was an ugly match but Stuttgart really needed a win against anyone just to boost their confidence. It's nice to Guirassy back as he seems to be the only consistent goal threat. I'd say they have zero chance of progressing further but all focus should be on the league regardless.
Rucksackfranzose Posted April 9, 2023 Posted April 9, 2023 These semifinals were drawn: Freiburg - Leipzig Stuttgart - Frankfurt
Moderator Tommy Posted April 9, 2023 Moderator Posted April 9, 2023 Please, please, please, please, please Freiburg. Win.

I'd agree that Frankfurt are favorites. But Stuttgart was able to go to Frankfurt and get a result not even a month ago, with Labbadia at the helm and hoofball in play. Now they're at home, with a new coach, no injury issues (as of now), and a better strategy. Of the remaining clubs left this would've been my choice of matchup. Edit to add that Frankfurt's form, after being shit hot for a couple months, is awful. They are falling away from European contention and losing to the clubs that are in and around them in the table.
Rucksackfranzose Posted April 10, 2023 Posted April 10, 2023 To be fair, Stuttgart aren't in the table situation they're in because they played so good this season.

Moderator Tommy Posted May 2, 2023 Moderator Posted May 2, 2023 Freiburg started well and then concede two goals within 90 seconds. Time to switch off. I can't stand to see Freiburg lose against this artificial piece of absolute cunt club.

Administrator Stan Posted May 3, 2023 Administrator Posted May 3, 2023 Looked like a cracking game between Stuttgart and Frankfurt. The latter win 3-2 in the end. Frankfurt vs RB Leipzig in the final next month.
Rucksackfranzose Posted May 30, 2023 Posted May 30, 2023 Not sure, whether it belongs here or in the 3.Liga and below thread: still, since FCS was the 4th best team in 3.Liga (well actually on 5th spot but Freiburg II are dropping out of the scoring as 2nd team of a Buli club) and Elversberg won 3.Liga both Saarland-Pokal finalists are already qualified for next season's DFB-Pokal via their league position. Therefore a match between the two losing Saarland -Pokal semi-finalists is scheduled for today to decide next season's DFB-Pokal starter from Saarland-Pokal. Don't know for sure, if such occurence happened before in any of the Landespokals, but can role it out for this cup and believe it didn't. Since the winner of this match is qualified for DFB-Pokal 23/24 I'll post the result here.
Rucksackfranzose Posted May 30, 2023 Posted May 30, 2023 Saarish DFB-Pokal qualifier ended: Auersmacher 1-4 Homburg. Gutted we not only missed the promotion/relegation play-offs versus Bielefeld but also enabled Homburg of all clubs to qualify for DFB-Pokal. How I wished we had finished on 6th spot and Dynamo Dresden were qualified instead of them.

We would be qualified anyway since we play the final against Elversberg. Dresden are out of the cup though, since they didn't qualify for the Sachsen-Pokal final. Bit sad teams like them, Waldhof, 1860, and MSV Duisburg all didn't qualify.

Michael Posted June 3, 2023 Posted June 3, 2023 I'd like Frankfurt to win, but RB Leipzig have to be the heavy favourites going into this DFB Pokal final. RB Leipzig's form and performances towards the end of the season was excellent. They look strong in all areas of the pitch. Laimer and Haidara are excellent in the midfield holding positions, while Nkunku, Werner, Olmo and Szoboszlai are superb forward players. Nkunku in particular will be a real threat. But I think RB Leipzig will control the midfield battle. Frankfurt's hope lies with Kolo Muani, with a class forward such as him, there's always hope. Hopefully Gotze and Kamada have strong games as well, as their creativity will be vital this evening.
