–
From Michi Heymann
Babelsberg – “This is an emotional cup game in the second round!” RB Leipzig Coach Jesse Marsch (47) said at the press conference on Monday what many already knew. The next hurdle in the DFB competition, SV Babelsberg 03, will certainly not be a sure-fire success for the Red Bulls. Also because the ex-Leipzig resident Daniel Frahn (34) wants to provide the big surprise.

The 34-year-old, who had worn the Saxons for five years, is now storming very successfully for the regional league team. He therefore promises a great fight for his team:
“It goes without saying that the quality of the Leipzigers is much higher. Therefore, we have to try to take away their pleasure in football a little with an aggressive duel. But that big sensations are also possible in the DFB-Pokal repeatedly shown “, said Frahn in an interview with”dfb.de“.
Babelsberg currently ranks sixth in the Regionalliga Nordost. Last Friday there was a strong draw against aspirant Lokomotive Leipzig (1: 1). Goalscorer on the part of the hosts: Frahn of course!

“Ex-RBL player Daniel Frahn naturally plays a major role in our match schedule. He is very dangerous for goals and we have to keep him away from the box”, Marsch warned his team.
In any case, one does not want to underestimate the supposed outsider. After all, Babelsberg has already proven that by defeating SpVgg Greuther Fürth in the first round of the cup (5: 4 after penalties) Bundesliga club do not necessarily have to be an obstacle for them.

In order to avoid the possible stumbling block, however, the RB coach cannot fall back on his entire team.
Dani Olmo (23) and Brian Brobbey (19) could only be an option for the game at Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday (6.30 p.m. / Sky). Marcel Halstenberg (30) and Lukas Klostermann (25) are still injured.
Pleasing: Konrad Laimer (24), who had to pass the last Bundesliga game, could possibly get a move.

In addition, the coach announced that Peter Gulacsi (31) will not be in the box. Instead, substitute goalkeeper Josep Martinez (23) tries to keep the zero. Marsch: “He trained very well and deserved a chance. He’s a great goalkeeper.” If all goes well, it will be the Spaniard’s first outing this season.
The Saxons and especially the Americans definitely cannot afford to leave. According to information from the “image“If the position on the edge of the field had possibly wavered, the Bulls would have lost to Fürth.
A disgrace to the fourth division club would probably not calm down the coaching discussion.
