Two clubs chasing DFB Pokal glory will do battle today in a cup match between Borussia Dortmund and VfL Wolfsburg. The semifinal clash scheduled for 2:30 p.m. ET will be held at the Westfalenstadion in Dortmund and can be live streamed here free.
Though Borussia Dortmund enter today's match fresh off a 3-0 victory over Bayern Munich, manager Jurgen Klopp is wary of the attack his opposition brings today (h/t to Eurosport). "All our measures against Real worked. All our measures against Bayern also worked. That must now also be the case against Wolfsburg," Klopp told reporters. "Wolfsburg in attack have brutal quality and this team must be part of the top group of clubs in the Bundesliga," he added.
"In every round so far, we're always thinking of [playing in the final in] Berlin. Saturday evening on our way back from Munich there was only one subject that was talked about. Who had seen Wolfsburg beat Nuremberg 4-1?"
"Wolfsburg are a top level team and it will be a hard semifinal."
Will it, however, be hard enough to keep Borussia Dortmund from reaching the DFB Pokal final? Tell us @SportsWN
