Defending champions RB Leipzig meet Borussia Dortmund in a top game in the quarter-finals of the DFB Cup. This leads to another duel between RB coach Marco Rose and his old club. That was the result of the draw on Sunday afternoon in the German Football Museum ZDF. Record winner Bayern Munich has to compete against the in-form SC Freiburg.
In another Bundesliga duel, Europa League winner Eintracht Frankfurt plays against Union Berlin. 1. FC Nürnberg, the only remaining second division club in the competition, hosts VfB Stuttgart in a repeat of the 2007 final.
The three-time national player Jacqueline Meißner from SGS Essen acted as Losfee. The round of eight will be played on April 4th and 5th.
The two semi-finals will take place on May 2nd and 3rd, the final will take place on June 3rd as usual in the Berlin Olympic Stadium.

DFB Cup: Draw for the quarter-finals in the live ticker – before the start
Before start: Almost punctually with the kick-off in Dortmund, ZDF also whistles the draw for the quarter-finals of the cup. Before that, of course, Losfee Jacqueline “Jaci” Meißner will be introduced. Trained industrial clerk, wife Lisa, defender at SGS Essen, 7th place in the women’s Bundesliga, native of Dortmund.
Before start: Union Berlin against FC Schalke 04 ended 0-0.
Before start: Now she’s coming ZDF-Broadcast according to its title, today in the report: Marco Rose, coach of the defending cup champion RB Leipzig. Appears modest, personable, loves his mum’s potato soup. I like it better than Uncle Mateschitz’s soup.
Before start: The day of the game ended a long time ago in the lower house, where the “club” from Nuremberg is currently in 13th place after today’s 0:5 debacle in Heidenheim and is therefore right in the middle of the relegation battle. The Franconians are only two points behind on the threatened places, only three points on Sandhausen at the bottom.
Before start: Speaking of everything Bayern Munich, the slip of the league leaders is currently largely unused, at least by Union Berlin, the Irons share the points with Schalke 04 three minutes before the final whistle (0:0). Afterwards, the next Bayern hunter Borussia Dortmund plays in the home game against Hertha BSC, Bayer Leverkusen closes the 21st matchday against Mainz 05.
Before start: The “Sportstudio Reportage” starts in ZDF, at the beginning, however, you look at a completely different competition. The show begins with a look back at Bayern’s victory in Paris and subsequent defeat in Mönchengladbach. Or like it ZDF called: “#postlude”. Hashtag unnecessary I say. Everything Bayern Munich again, right?
Before start: There were at least three duels between the Bundesliga and the second division in the round of 16, Stuttgart prevailed in Paderborn (2-1), Freiburg in Sandhausen (2-0) and Eintracht Frankfurt kept the upper hand against Darmstadt in a 4-2 goal festival. Only in a league-internal duel with Fortuna Düsseldorf was a second division team able to prevail in Nuremberg. He will have included the three-time national player Jacqueline Meißner from SGS Essen in his prayers today, she will draw the balls as Losfee. The draw manager is DFB Vice President Peter Frymuth.
Before start: Of course you could say: boring. But it’s anything but that! Conversely, a strong field of participants promises us high chances of four exciting games in the quarter-finals. With Bayern Munich, Union Berlin, Borussia Dortmund, SC Freiburg, RB Leipzig and Eintracht Frankfurt, the six (!!) best teams of the current Bundesliga season (as of before the 21st matchday) are still represented. Only VfB Stuttgart (17th) and second division club 1. FC Nürnberg are a bit weak in comparison. Maybe they can be drawn against each other in a duel on an equal footing?
Before start: Then there were only eight! And the field of participants couldn’t be much more unspectacular, a lottery pot is enough today, there won’t be an automatic home right either, since no amateur club is represented anymore. Defending champions RB Leipzig and record holders Bayern Munich are both still there and since Borussia Dortmund and Eintracht Frankfurt still have their hats in the ring, only VfL Wolfsburg is missing from the last ten cup winners.
Before start: Welcome to the draw for the quarter-finals of the DFB Cup for the 2022/2023 season.
