After the comfortable victory against Mannheim last weekend, relief was written all over the faces of the Black and Yellow faithful. The final scoreline of 4-0 was the biggest win for the BVB U23s in 18 months, and the first under the new head coach Jan Zimmermann: “It was a very positive afternoon for everyone involved. The victory made everyone feel good.”

SV Werder Bremen will face a tough opponent at home this weekend in Bayer 04 Leverkusen (Sunday, 12.03.2023, 17:30 CET). The Werkself may have lacked consistency in their league performances this season, but come into the game fresh off a 2-0 win against Ferencvaros in the round of 16 of the Europa League. “We need to make sure that we deliver a strong performance against Leverkusen. They will pose a tough challenge for us,” said head coach Ole Werner.

After Markus Weinzierl resigned as coach on the last matchday of last season, FC Augsburg recruited Enrico Maaßen in June as his successor, the absolute ideal candidate for the position. The 38-year-old, who most recently led Borussia Dortmund’s reserves into the third division and established them there, reached an agreement with FCA to take over the first team for several years, with an agreement also reached with Borussia Dortmund on his move.

Bild began with a training report (via @iMiaSanMia) from the Rekordmeister’s first sessions after Wednesday’s win over FC Barcelona, intimating that the German international had suffered a setback ten minutes into individual training.

You could watch the goals from Tuesday over and over again, firstly the skillful, precise volley from Nicolas Höfler to equalise. “Chicco’s finish was pure quality,” said his coach. Then came the bold but perfectly placed penalty from Lucas Höler to make it 2-1, which was the final score. The defensive work that the team put in throughout the game was at least as important, however. “We have to defend everything,” Streich demanded before the cup match. The team did just that.

Sandro Schwarz made a single change from the line-up from the 2-0 home win against Augsburg, with Dodi Lukébakio starting in the place of Jessic Ngankam, who dropped to the bench. The team continued in a 3-5-2 formation, with Marc Kempf starting in the back-three with Agustín Rogel and Filip Uremović despite being subbed off against FCA. Former Hertha player Robert Andrich started in midfield for the hosts.
