About DFB Pokal
The German Cup, also known as the DFB-Pokal is a German elimination football tournament, which is the second most important national football competition in Germany after the Bundesliga.
The first edition of the tournament was held in 1935, but the competition was suspended from 1944 to 1953 due to World War II and the aftermath of the conflict. It was later re-started under its current format, which includes 64 teams: 36 teams from the Bundesliga and the Bundesliga II, the four best teams of the German third division and 24 clubs from regional associations. All rounds are decided in a one-game KO tie. Each tie will be decided by a penalty shootout in the event of a draw after 90 minutes, with the only exception being the title clash, where extra time is played to determine the winner before the spot kicks.
The winner of the DFB Pokal is awarded an entry to the UEFA Europa League, but if both finalists have earned their spot in that competition or in the UEFA Champions League, that spot will be awarded to the best Bundesliga side that failed to earn a ticket to play in European competitions.
The 2018-19 season saw Bayern München claim one more title after a two-year drought. The Bavarian side won the competition by beating RB Leipzig in the title clash with a 3-0 score. The game, just as every DFB-Pokal final, was held at the Olympiastadion in Berlin. Robert Lewandowski crowned himself as the top scorer in the competition by scoring seven goals, including his brace in the title clash. Bayern’s title also saw them increase their tally to 19 DFB-Pokal trophies, the highest amount among German sides.
The 2019-20 DFB Pokal is set to kick off on August 9, 2019. The final is scheduled to be played on May 23, 2020.
Did you know? Fortuna Düsseldorf managed to establish a record for most consecutive wins in this competition back in the early 80s, as they won 18 games in a row between 1978 and 1981. That streak saw them win the 1979 and 1980 DFB-Pokal titles.
