DFB Cup: TSG drawn away to Duisburg

The draw for the Second Round of the DFB Cup, which was televised on ARD's Sportschau program on Sunday evening, has handed TSG Hoffenheim an away trip to third-tier outfit MSV Duisburg.

It's yet another DFB Cup away tie for TSG Hoffenheim, who were presented with MSV Duisburg as their next opponents in the competition by special studio guest Christoph Metzelder. The fixtures in the DFB Cup Second Round will take place on (Tuesday) 29 or (Wednesday) 30 October.

"They're an opponent that have made a good start to the season. They eliminated Greuther Fürth from the competition in the First Round. But our objective is obviously to reach the next round," said Alexander Rosen, the TSG director of football, following the draw.

The precise kick-off time and date for TSG's trip to Duisburg has yet to be scheduled by the DFB.

TSG are still in the competition by virtue of their 5-4 penalty shootout victory (HT: 2-2; FT: 3-3) away to Würzburger Kickers in the First Round.
