A long-awaited feeling

Many professional clubs can tell you how disgusting the first round of the cup can be. Not least the Lilies after last August. The general conditions for the start of the cup are the same for almost all away teams year after year: high altitude against lower-class opponents who see the encounter as an absolute final. There's nothing to gain apart from getting ahead, but a lot to lose. The fact that this did not happen to SV 98 this year was due to early decisions and resilience. Next round – no more, but no less either. And yet progress should give you strength for the tasks ahead.

“Have fulfilled the ultimate goal”

One round further. The Lilies cleared the cup hurdle and moved into the second round of the DFB Cup with a 3-1 win against Teutonia Ottensen. A wonderful goal from Kai Klefisch initiated the success at the Millertor before Fabian Nürnberger was able to increase the score with a penalty. Even though the regional league team came close at times, the Darmstadt team finally brought home the victory safely thanks to Oscar Vilhelmsson's goal. Accordingly, the Darmstadt protagonists were happy about the positive result at the microphones after the final whistle. We have summarised all the voices about the game for you.
