DFB Cup: TSG off to Würzburg in Round 1

The draw for the First Round of the DFB Cup has been kind to TSG Hoffenheim, who will not have to travel far for new coach Alfred Schreuder's first competitive game in charge. The opponents will be third-tier Würzburger Kickers, who ended last season in third place in the third division. The match-up with coach Michael Schiele's charges was the second tie drawn by ARD pundit and former world champion Nia Künzer, who pulled the names out of the hat on the Sportschau programme on Saturday evening. The First Round fixtures will be played between 9 and 12 August.

TSG will get in touch with Würzburg as quickly as possible to clarify all the details concerning ticket sales. As soon as the date for the advance sale of tickets has been determined, we will announce it here.
