Today the DFB Pokal begins and we bring you the four outstanding matches of the second phase.
RB Leipzig – St. Pauli
Clearly, in today’s first round, we will have a real duel of opposing identities. On the one hand, the energy drink club and, on the other, the club of its fans. A lot of action is expected in the stands, but on the playing field the big favorites are the Red Bulls.
VfL Wolfsburg – Borussia Dortmund
In the second turn, we find a game that has a lot of morbid surroundings. Although Los Lobos are not doing well, the black and yellow club is mired in a crisis where there does not seem to be an immediate solution to get out. It is already known that if Sahin does not make it to the round of 16, it will add another argument for the fans to target him and the board’s justifications will remain as an anecdote.

Eintracht Frankfurt – Borussia Mönchengladbach, the highlight of the second phase of the DFB Pokal
Tomorrow, Águilas and Potros will meet in one of the most even duels that this second phase has. In the Bundesliga standings, just four points separate them and, for both, this competition is key. Especially for Gladbach, which is the only competition besides the national championship.
FSV Mainz 05 – FC Bayern Munich
Finally, Los Bávaros will face Los Carnavaleros in search of ending the ghosts of the German Cup in recent years. Let us remember that they have not reached a final for five years and, as if that were not enough, they have just been eliminated in the early stages at the hands of promotion teams. That is why Kompany will have to face a challenge in which it cannot relax.
