Krzysztof Piatek is not enough at Hertha Berlin. The team coached by Juergen Klinsmann was eliminated in the German Cup by Schalke 04, after losing 3-2 in extra time. The guests had taken the 2-0 thanks to goals from Koepke and Piatek, but were joined by Caligiuri and Harit, then overcome in the extensions by Raman. Erasmus Haaland's superbomber Borussia Dortmund has also been eliminated from the German Cup. The Gialloneri surrendered on the field of Werder Bremen 3-2 and, precisely Haaland, had brought 'his' back to the momentary 1-2.
It was not enough. The ex-Bundesliga leaders are also out of the tournament: Leipzig have been defeated 3-1 in Frankfurt by Eintracht (the goal of the newly purchased Spanish Dani Olmo is useless). Kaiserslautern are also out, knocking 5-2 at home against Fortuna Duesseldorf.
