Regensburg hosts Werder Bremen in the German DFB Pokal quarterfinals. The match will be played on Tuesday, March 2nd at Jahnstadion Regensburg (Regensburg)
Regensburg played its opening matches in the German Cup with representatives of the 3rd German League. At first (in the 1/32 finals), the club beat Kaiserslautern 4:3 in a penalty shootout (1:1 after regulation and extra time). In the next round, Wehen and Regensburg lacked 120 minutes to score, and the post-match lottery was won by the Red Shorts (4:2). In the 1/8 finals, Jahn played against the 14th team of the Bundesliga, FC Koln. The time allotted by the regulations again didn’t identify the winner (2:2), and luck was on the side of the team from Regensburg in the penalty shootout (4:3).

In the 1/32 finals, Werder Bremen beat the representative of the German Regionalliga, Carl Zeiss, without unnecessary worries (0:2). In the next stages, the White-Greens played against the teams from the second strongest division of Germany. At first, they hammered Hannover (3:0) and then confidently dealt with Greuther Furth (2:0).
The rivals advanced to the cup quarterfinals in different ways. At first, Regensburg expectedly defeated the representatives of a lower tier, although it had to participate in a penalty shootout in both matches. And the team was frankly lucky in the match with FC Koln. By the middle of the first half, the Goats were ahead with a 2:0 score but openly stopped playing, allowing Jahn to level the score. FC Koln looked stronger even in the second half of the meeting, but the unconverted penalty in the normal time led the opponents to a penalty shootout. You know the rest - Regensburg was more fortunate in the lottery. Werder Bremen effortlessly overcame three rounds of the Cup, scoring seven goals and keeping a clean sheet in all matches. The not-so-successful performance of the Green-Whites in the Bundesliga should not confuse anyone. Jahn Regensburg is also in the lower part of the standings, but in the second division. And the incredible luck that brought the Red Shorts to the German Cup quarterfinals for the first time in their history must end. The visitors will probably manage to gain victory in regulation time.
Prediction for the match: Werder Bremen to win
