Zum Glück holt Schalke den DFB Pokal. Stellt euch mal vor Duisburg hätte den Pott geholt und
wäre nächstes Jahr neben Mainz und Hannover in die Europa League eingezogen. Jahrelang gute
Ergebnisse im internationalen Geschäft und damit verbunden viele Punkte für die
UEFA-5-Jahreswertung, wären wohl für die Katz gewesen.
Heute um 20.30 Uhr, live zu sehen im ARD, treffen in der Düsseldorfer LTU-Arena die Werkself
und die Weißbiertrinker aufeinander. Wenn die Bayern nicht gewinnen wird Jürgen Klinsmann
wohl noch heftiger in die Kritik geraten und der Abwärtstrend in 2009 setzt sich fort. Besser
siehts bei den Leverkusener allerdings auch nicht aus, denn auch diese konnten [.
Wer hätte das gedacht: Auch ohne sein Trainerdenkmal Jürgen Klopp (jetzt beim BVB) hat
Mainz 05 Erfolg. In der 2. Liga spielt der Club um den Aufstieg und im DFB-Pokal wartet mit Schalke
04 nun ein vermeintlich dicker Brocken vor dem Einzug ins Halbfinale. Anders sieht es da für
das Team von Schalke 04 aus.
Am gestrigen Sonntag Abend wurden von Glücksfee Nadine Angerer, Nationaltorhüterin des 1.
FFC Frankfurt, die Viertelfinalbegegnungen des DFB-Pokals ausgelost. Hier verließ die Bayern
das sonst bekannte Losglück und der Hamburger SV darf sich auch den vermeintlich
schwächsten Gegner Wehen Wiesbaden freuen.

First of all, its' format contrasts nicely with all other season long competitions. A pure
knockout tournament. 90 minutes minimum. 120 minutes and penalty shootouts if necessary. No draws.
No rematches. No second legs. If you are the away team, live with it.
Inter succeeded in defending their Serie A title after winning against Siena in the last round
of league fixtures. Once again the hero was Diego Milito who has left his mark by scoring the
winner against Siena after hitting the winning striker against Roma in the Coppa Italia final.
The Nerazzurri have been consistent in recent weeks and their efficiency was visible in the
two-legged clash against Barcelona.
FC Bayern Munich won its eighth domestic double by humbling defending cup holders Werder Bremen 4-0
in the final of the DFB-Pokal (German Cup) on Saturday. Bayern can now complete a treble if they
beat face Inter Milan in the UEFA Champions League final on May 22. The dominant Bavarian side went
ahead through Arjen [.

Cup finals saw the conclusion of the club season in both England and Germany today. In the FA Cup
Final, Chelsea came from behind to beat Everton 2-1. In the DFB-Pokal final, captain Frank Baumann
retired in style as Werder Bremen will see Europa League football after defeating Bayer Leverkusen
1-0.History was made in today's FA Cup final.
Das war es also, das erste von vier Nord-Derbys. Ein würdiger Auftakt der 19-tätigen
Hamburg-Bremen-Festspiele, wie ich finde. Ein Match, das zwar keinen hochklassigen Fußball, aber
hochspannende Unterhaltung bot. Als HSV-Fan muss ich konstatieren, dass das spielerisch einfach zu
wenig war, was die Rothosen vor heimischem Publikum präsentierten.
The story out of the Premier League this midweek is a simple one; forget any thoughts on the title
race being back on. As I've said from the start, this title race is over. Thanks to another game
that is no where near close to being a classic, Liverpool saw Andrey Arshavin break out, scoring
four times and needed injury time to pull level.
Am gestrigen Samstag Abend wurde von Nationalspielerin Ariane Hingst, als Glücksfee im
"aktuellen Sportstudio" im ZDF, das Halbfinale des DFB-Pokals ausgelost. Ein
glückliches Händchen für Mainz 05 hatte sie dabei allerdings nicht. Die
Karnevalisten müssen bei Bayer 04 Leverkusen in der Düsseldorfer LTU-Arena antreten.
Eight teams went in, four went out and on the surface the romance of the cup is alive and well. On
the inside, those teams "surprisingly" eliminated are in a deep crisis. Mainz 05 1-0
Schalke 04 Is there anyone still keeping track of the number of setbacks Schalke has to endure this
season? They are [.

After the dowdy draw againt China on Friday, Germany defeated the UAE 7-2 in Dubai on their
second and last stop of the Asia trip on Tuesday. As suspected, it was a better training game, the
only notable aspects were Schalke's Manuel Neuer who debuted in the German goal and showed a strong
and solid effort.

Die Hinrunde des Hamburger Sportvereins ist fast eine Kopie des letzten Jahres - zumindest was die
Ausbeute anbelangt. In der Tabelle rangiert man auf Schlagdistanz zur Spitze, die
UEFA-Cup-Gruppenphase hat man als Klassenbester bestanden, auch im DFB-Pokal ist man noch dabei.
Trotzdem will sich überschwängliche Euphorie beim ewigen Bundesligisten nicht so recht
einstellen.
The new Bundesliga season is about to kick-off in a few minutes. There are the usual new teams, new
coaches and new players to be excited about. There is a lot of football and a few trophies to be
excited about. And finally, for the footie nerds, there are also some organisational changes to be

European football competitions used to be a straight forward affair. Two cups for each domestic
league title and another one for the best of the rest all played out in a two-legged knockout
format. Then came the G-14, breakaway league threats and UEFA's response with a complicated mix of
pre-group stage qualification knockout ties, group stages and post group stage knockout ties.

They say the DFB-Pokal is the shortest route to Europe. But it's not just short, it's actually
more lucrative than Europe itself as in the Europa League. I stumbled upon the official figures
released by the DFB for the 2009/2010 season, and with the transfer window set to open again, you
might want to get your calculators out and add up the extra funds your club has earned so far.
It's time to brush up on your knowledge of provincial Germany and long forgotten club name
prefixes. The draw for the first round of next season's DFB-Pokal took place today.
Personal Picks of the Round:
Kickers Offenbach - Eintracht Frankfurt (Fierce Derby, Arch Rivals = Fun and Violence - not that
the two should go together and hopefully it'll be mostly peaceful)
Fortuna Düsseldorf - Hamburger SV (sure to become a 51500 sell out)
Union Berlin - Werder Bremen (Union's fan renovated Old Forestry stadium deserved no less than the
title holder for it's first official match)
Everybody else
Germania Windeck - Schalke 04
Concordia Hamburg - TuS Koblenz
Sportfreunde Lotte - VfL Bochum
Tennis Borussia Berlin - Karlsruher SC
Dynamo Dresden - 1.
Medienstar Reiner Calmund und Noch-Bayern-Manager Uli Hoeneß wirken in ihrem Gespräch
ein wenig als wären sie gerade von einer Beerdigung gekommen. Dass der FC Bayern kurz davor
gegen Bayer Leverkusen aus dem DFB-Pokal geflogen ist, ist doch kein Grund zur Trauer, jedenfalls
nicht für Calli, oder?
Wer mir bei Twitter folgt, der weiß zum Beispiel, dass ich gestern in Gladbach war. Hatte zwar
nichts mit dem Fussball zu tun, aber kurz bevor ich zum Bahnhof ging, habe ich durch ein
Schaufenster etwas DFB-Pokal mitbekommen. Elfmeter für Cottbus. 2:0 Naja, dachte ich, kann ja
mal passieren. Bei Gladbach läuft es ja gerade nicht [.
