Leipzig does not get their attacks played to the end. The Red Bulls keep counterattacking via Müller in the direction of the opposing goal. At the latest in the Frankfurt penalty area, however, it is over because the Eintracht defense is very attentive.

12:43 p.m
Now it’s fast at Leipzig. Fudalla picks up the pace and shifts to Hipp on the right. Her attempt to cross ends up in the arms of Johannes, who wasn’t really challenged in this game. There was more in it!

The Hessians want to build on the performance in the Bundesliga. The team is second in the table behind FC Bayern, but is still undefeated this season. Leipzig coach Saban Uzun warns: “The roles are clearly divided: Frankfurt has developed very strongly and has arrived at the top of the Bundesliga. We are outsiders and will have less possession of the ball than usual. We will need a very good day to progress .”

Eintracht Frankfurt travels to Saxony as the big favourite. After the 2019/20 and 2020/21 season, the SBU meets the Red Bulls for the third time in the cup.

I expect that’s exactly what we’ll show on the pitch on Saturday,” said Eintracht coach Niko Arnautis before the game.
