Reese has not yet really arrived in this evening game. He hits the ball incorrectly and chases a flank up and directly into the goal.

20:49
The best chance so far goes to the FCK account. Knights put deep and flat over to the started Ache – a great timing of both. The striker then pushes the ball from the gersbeck, which turns the ball over a bit too pointed.

Reese crosses from the left in a high arc. Far behind the second post, Kenny wants to ensure a spectacular conclusion with a volley, but does not really hit the ball with the side puller.

20:47
Berlin gets more game control and can now show longer ball possession phases. From time to time, small fouls interrupt the game.

20:44
After the intensive start, some calm returns. Robinson meets Sessa in the right half field. The free kick from the fouled Sessa has kicked extremely weakly and flies into the no man’s land.

Cuisance and Reese flanks from the right and left, but do not find any other players with their crossings.

On the other hand, FCK keeper Krahl comes out at a deep steep pass of the Herthaner at the right moment and clarifies the ball in front of the dividing shear.

20:36
The first chance of the game: the corner kick is harmless in the first instance, Yokota can flank out of the right half field again. Kaloč runs on the second post, but heads the ball clearly in the middle of the goal.

Hertha’s first advances defend the Lauterer together. In the counterattack, Ache jumps the ball a little too far from the chest, in the second attempt Yokota picks up a corner kick.

Start of the game
20:28
In the Lauterers, Markus starts at the beginning or his current representative Florian Junge two changes. Jan Gyamerah is the right rail player instead of Jean Zimmer. Ragnar Ache begins again in the storm, Daniel Hanslik has to take a seat on the bench for the time being.
20:25
At the old lady, Fabian Reese celebrates his longing to start up his starting element this season after his serious ankle injury. In addition to Reese, Hertha coach Cristian Fiél brings two more new ones compared to the past defeat: Máron Dárdai returns to central defense after back pain last week, Kevin Sessa can get back from the start. Captain Toni Leistner, Marten Winkler and Smail Prevljak have to give way.
20:19
Will Berlin’s weakness be another factor again? The Hertha fetched only seven points in front of a home crowd (2S, 1U, 6N). Only Magdeburg is even weaker in the home table due to the poorer goal difference.
20:16
The Lauterers have positive memories of the Cup quarter-final last year. On the way to the cup final in Berlin, the red devils made a guest appearance in the capital and confidently moved into the semi-finals with a 3-1 win against Hertha. The rest of the story is particularly known to FCK fans.
20:11
Since Hertha’s descent in 2023, the old lady has won all the league with the Lauterers. In the first leg, the Berliners won a seven-goal spectacle on Betzenberg 4: 3.
20:04
The Palatinate is missing head coach Markus Begin on the bench. After Luca Sirch’s last minute goal for 2-1 home win against Münster, the emotions boiled up again after the final whistle. Through the heated exchange with the referee, the beginning is closed today. He is represented by assistant coach Florian Junge.
19:57
Lautern, on the other hand, has a perfect balance in the new year. At home, the red devils celebrated 2-1 victories against the promoted SSV Ulm and Prussia Münster, away from Lautern from Greuther Fürth (4: 2).
19:49
After a fairly decent appearance against the HSV, the coach fell “unworthy performance” at the bottom of the Regensburg, so the house blessing in Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf hangs. Sports director Benjamin Weber immediately expressed the trust of the chief coach and followed up in the run -up to today’s game: “The team of coaches tears off.”
19:38
The Herthans have started growing into the new year. The 2-1 away win at SC Paderborn was followed by a 2: 3 defeat against HSV and a 0: 2 at SSV Jahn Regensburg.
