DFB-Pokal: FC Augsburg drawn against TSV Steinbach

FC Augsburg will face TSV Steinbach in the DFB-Pokal first round. The game will take place the week before the start of the Bundesliga between Friday, 17th – Monday, 20th August. The draw was carried out on Friday evening under the direction of DFB president Reinhard Grindel. Palina Rojinski drew FC Augsburg’s name against TSV Steinbach. As a top flight side, FC Augsburg will be the hot favourites to win. However, the Red-Green-Whites’ record against lower league sides has not been pretty over the last few years. "We want to progress to the next round and prove why we’re the favourites”, said general manager, Stefan Reuter. “We have seen how difficult it can be, after two defeats in Magdeburg. We will be better this year.” Here is the full fixture list for the DFB-Pokal first round: SV Linx - 1. FC Nürnberg SV Wehen Wiesbaden - FC St. Pauli SV Rödinghausen - SG Dynamo Dresden 1.
