In the only duel of the day between two Bundesliga clubs, RB Leipzig prevailed.

With the 3-0 (1-0) success against FC Augsburg, Julian Nagelsmann's team moved into the round of 16 of the DFB Cup.

Willi Orban headed for the early lead after a corner kick (11th minute).

The guests showed themselves to be trying, but missed dangerous offensive actions.

Later on, the home team improved, but the goal was scored by Yussuf Poulsen, who came late for the Champions League round of 16 (74th).

Angelino finished with a remarkable hit in the left corner (82nd).

Before this game, FC Schalke had won three games in 2020 - one in the league, two in the cup.

At the end of the year a 3: 1 (1: 0) against fourth division SSV Ulm succeeded.

For the club, which was in crisis in the league, Suat Serdar scored a long shot into the far right corner (28th).

The fact that Schalke found it difficult to create reasonable chances was also due to the committed and enthusiastic players from Ulm.

The second hit was all the more surprising, Benito Raman used a ricochet shot (51.).

It was Raman who made the decision with his second goal (63rd).

Johannes Reichert scored the deserved consolation goal from the point (82nd), but was lucky that the rebound fell at his feet.

Ralf Fährmann had initially parried.

For Huub Stevens, the second game as Schalke interim coach was the last for the time being.

The team from the Bundesliga also prevailed in the game between 1. FC Köln and second division VfL Osnabrück.

In an uneventful game, Ellyes Skhiri first hit a cross, whereupon the ball hit the crossbar.

Shortly before the break, Ondrej Duda found a gap in the Osnabrück defense, Anthony Modeste completed from a short, half-left position (45th + 1).

Cologne had more possession of the ball, but did not know what to do with it offensively.

They didn't have to either, because the defensive didn't allow Osnabrück major opportunities.
