Third & fourth division teams in the semi-finals: Surprises in the DFB Cup
DFB-Pokal: Maaßen debut succeeds – FC Augsburg beats fourth-division side Lohne
FC Augsburg barely reached the second round in the debut of their new coach Enrico Maassen. In the end, the Bundesliga club clearly won 4-0 (0-0) at the Lower Saxony regional league promoted Blau-Weiss Lohne. The strong resistance of the fourth division on Sunday in front of 4,150 spectators flagged in the second half after goals from Arne Maier (51st minute), Fredrik Jensen (69th), Florian Niederlechner (81st) and Maurice Malone (89th).
Maassen knows the David versus Goliath constellation from his own experience. The 38-year-old has led the fourth division clubs SV Drochtersen/Assel and SV Rödinghausen to the DFB Cup in recent years and even managed a big surprise with Rödinghausen in 2018 against the then second division club Dynamo Dresden.
