SV Steinbach meets third division in the Hessen Cup in the third division!

In the stadium on Bieberer Berg, the draw for the round of 16 of the Hessen Cup took place today. Trainer Petr Paliatka from SV Steinbach, a club from the Hessenliga, can look forward to an exciting duel. The third division club SV Wehen-Wiesbaden will compete on the Mühlengrund in the coming weeks and has a lot of experience. It is an excellent opportunity for Steinbach to play against a higher -class opponent.

The draw was carried out by the goalkeeper legend Karlheinz Volz, who once won the DFB Cup with Kickers Offenbach. Volz, who played for well -known clubs such as 1. FC Köln and FSV Frankfurt, pulled the loose together with the new association president Prof. Dr. Silke Sinning. This ensures a certain anticipation and increases the importance of the upcoming games.

confusion about the tournament tree

The Hessen Cup path for the regional league also begins exciting. The SG Baroque city will compete at FC Eddersheim. Cup -leader Jörg Wolf had originally announced that the quarter -finals would be held immediately after the round of 16. But a surprising message caused confusion about the further course of the tournament.

According to the new arrangement, SG Barockstadt would have to compete against the winner from the Duel Germania Ober-Roden vs. TSV Steinbach-Haiger in the quarterfinals. In the semifinals, FV Breidenbach, FC Gießen, FSV Fernwald or KSV Hessen Kassel could wait either. These developments have made the ongoing planning somewhat complicated for everyone involved. It remains to be seen how exactly this affects the teams and their preparations.

While SG Baroque City is playing in Eddersheim on October 22nd or 23rd, the appointment for Steinbach against Wehen-Wiesbaden has not yet been set. The third division club still has to coordinate with the SVS to find a suitable game date. In particular, the game between the sports fans Blau-Gelb Marburg and Kickers Offenbach will only be held in November, since Offenbach is active in the DFB Cup and are therefore overlapping.

This year only the round of 16 is played in 2024, with the quarter -finals take place a week before the regional league began in February 2025.
