Borussia Mönchengladbach 2–0 Karlsruher SC

Robin Hack needed just seven minutes to put Borussia Mönchengladbach ahead, and Lukas Ullrich doubled the lead four minutes into the second half, sealing a 2-0 DFB Pokal win over Karlsruher SC. Gladbach controlled the tie from the opening whistle, with Hack's early strike setting the tone and forcing Karlsruher to chase the game for the rest of the night. Ullrich's finish right after the restart snuffed out any hope of a second-half comeback, and from there Gladbach simply managed the clock against a Karlsruher side that never found an answer. Neither Hack nor Ullrich sits among the league's current scoring leaders - that mark belongs to H. Kane with seven - but on this night it didn't matter who topped the charts, only who turned up. Two goals, two different halves, one clinical performance that ended Karlsruher's cup run without much drama. Watch how Hack springs the opener inside the first ten minutes, and how quickly Ullrich snuffs out any Karlsruher hope seconds into the second half, in the full highlights below.
