Is one of the Major flown out?

it all depends on how you define large: Sandhausen? Darmstadt? Wiesbaden? The three are out, so there were no Surprises. The first division club Hannover and Mainz had to leave in the duels with the League competitors Wolfsburg and Augsburg in the Cup. The HSV hesitated, the usual, unpleasant Pokalaus against a low in addition to higher class opponents another round and won against Wehen Wiesbaden.

there Was a game that could you definitely not miss?

no.

there Were games that were perhaps not quite so exciting?

Ulm against Düsseldorf to be worth it only because Ulm was already after three ten seconds in the lead. And because it goes on because of the Ulmer Fanschals “The madness of Ulm in the Bundesliga,” short-time to this absurd small club in the German League thought. In 1999, that was in the promotion season with the help of the young Ralf Rangnick, then a Junior Professor. The message this time read, in fact, like from the last century: “Ten games from the end of the ‘sparrows’ to a surprising 2:1 rail away win escaped at the table, the third Hamburger SV in the relegation zone already.” It’s a question of, whether here in Ulm or the HSV is the actual message. But well, at that time Nokia was still a thing, and Friedrich Merz, a crucial political figure. A long time ago. Anyway, it went around for Ulm, then rapidly downhill, insolvencies in Ulm and descents to Ulm, and now even five goals in the game against Düsseldorf. However, the time in the lower leagues do not need to damage the creativity.

What made the Bayern?

First of all, you have to be happy that they are started eleven against Rödinghausen. Rodriguez, Robben, Boateng, and Hummels saved injured for the Trip to East Westphalia, Lewandowski and Kimmich took on the Bank next to some A-young place, the Niko Kova? took. It was, therefore, foreseeable that in the rain of Osnabrück no cream cherry would have to wait. Bayern would but only 20 minutes of football against the regional League play, that was amazing.

Sandro Wagner and Thomas Müller met very early on Renato Sanches missed a penalty. Then nothing more happened, as so often in the course of the season. Javi Martínez showed before the download Hauser hit the players in the fourth League, the passive assist in the first League, a defensive technique is, if not successful: met Linus Meyer, who had announced at a victory, naked to want to go to Hamburg run. You can argue now whether it was good that it remained at 1:2. It is a tired, Shine was a loose game and the second scarce Bayern victory against a regional division team in the Cup in a row.

röding Hauser can attach to the lapel that you will see once the Reklamierarm of Manuel Neuer after a hit against him in the air fast. And that Bayern had to play to the end even at the time, to bring the victory over the rounds. And, Oh Yes, the SPD holds in the local city Council continues to be the absolute majority. Life is going so well.

What else was going on? Hannover against Wolfsburg, an anti-game, the descriptions must begin with “no”: no real low thing Derby (which is just under Braunschweiger participation possible), no spectators, no Füllkrug and therefore no chance of the game in the second half on both sides. Wolfsburg won 2:0, the Fans showed, however, again, why you are in Germany are more likely to be ridiculed than feared.
