After the draw: And Schalke’s neighbor Rot-Weiss Essen is also not happy with his lot. Derby against Schalke, Bochum or Dortmund or a feasible opponent from the midfield of the second division – many attractive balls were in the pot, with Leverkusen or Frankfurt it was an extremely difficult opponent for the regional division. “We accept every lot”, commented a little euphoric RWE coach Christian Neidhardt about the drawing on ARD.
After the draw: The Schalke fans quarrel with their lot. In the messed up season, the cup was the only joy to bring. There were enough inferior opponents in the pot, with Wolfsburg it was a tough lot – and then away from home too.

5.45 p.m .: And it starts right away with Rot-Weiss Essen. Who will be the opponent? It is the winner from Bayer Leverkusen or Eintracht Frankfurt. “Not the desireless, we accept it as it happened,” says Neidhardt. But then he would prefer the eagles.
