The grief at Dynamo Dresden was limited. Neither the coach nor the players, let alone the vast majority of the 30,070 fans, had any regrets after the 2:3 (0:0, 2:2) defeat to Darmstadt 98 in the second round of the DFB Cup. The third division team's performance against the relegated Bundesliga side was too good.
"It was actually a perfect evening," said Dynamo defender Claudio Kammerknecht. But only actually. "It was a great game with the 2:2 in the last minute of stoppage time. And then we get the shitty counter-attack," said Kammerknecht. The 2:3 through Isac Lidberg (98') was the final blow.
