Cup cracker: TSV Gudow challenges defending champion Ratzeburger SV!

An exciting semi -finals in the Duchy of Lauenburg's district cup is imminent! On Thursday at 2 p.m., the district league team TSV Gudow will meet the national league team Ratzeburger SV. As the defending champion and clear favorite, the Ratzeburger go into this game after they have confidently moved into the semi -finals in the first rounds. Gudow, on the other hand, made an impressive 3-0 victory against Borussia Möhnsen in the quarter-finals, which gives them buoyancy. But the Ratzeburger are warned: their scarce 2-1 victory over the Büchen-Siebichener SV shows that they are also not invincible!

The voices of the protagonists

"We are going into play as a total outsider. For us, this is the highlight of the season," explains Marcel Schaper von Gudow. He knows that the trophy has its own laws and the league is not the measure of all things. "With our fans in the back, on our place, Ratzeburg first has to survive for 90 minutes to move into the final." On the other hand, Denny Skwierczynski from Ratzeburg is determined: "We have no reason to take this game on our lights. We tackle the task like a point game." However, Ratzeburg will have to do without some important players, including Boyn, Dankert, Morgenroth, Somuah, Rudolph and Wascher.

The semi -finals promise a lot of tension and could cause surprises! While Gudow appears as an underdog, the Ratzeburger are ready to defend their title. The fans can look forward to a gripping duel that could offer everything that the heart of a football fan desires!
