Union welcomes Leipzig in the DFB Cup semifinals

Union’s way to the cup final leads via Leipzig. In the semi-finals (April 19/20), the irons have to go to RB.

The hardest lot that the Köpenickers could get from Olympic bobsleigh champion and Losfee Laura Nolte (23).

Nevertheless: The dream of the final in the Berlin Olympic Stadium is only one victory away!

Manager Oliver Ruhnert (50): “Certainly the lot seems to be the most difficult at the moment, but we will travel to Leipzig to do our best and to grow beyond ourselves.”

Union will have to do the same. All four competitive games at RB have been lost so far.

But: The Fischer-Elf won the last two duels in the Alte Försterei. Most recently in December 2021 with 2: 1.

Because Union receives Frankfurt in the Bundesliga on Sunday, April 17 (5:30 p.m.), there are many indications that the cup duel will kick off on Wednesday, April 20.

Curious: the following weekend there will also be a duel between Saxony and Union in the league. Again in Leipzig! The exact date is not fixed yet.

Should Union reach the final, second division HSV or league competitor Freiburg is waiting. But first there is Leipzig!

RB coach Domenico Tedesco (36) praises Union: “They are a really good team that will play a good role again this season.”
