Borussia Mönchengladbach beat Karlsruhe 2-0 in the DFB-Pokal second round, despite being reduced to ten men, according to Bulinews. The win continued Gladbach's revival under Alexander Blessin, with Robin Hack scoring the first goal after a well-worked team move. Joe Scally assisted the goal, following up on his strong performance in Gladbach's previous Bundesliga win.

Gladbach's lead was doubled in the second half by Lukas Ullrich, who came on as a substitute at halftime.

The match saw Philipp Sander sent off for a last-man foul on Shio Fukuda, a Karlsruhe player on loan from Gladbach. Gladbach will face Paderborn and HSV in the coming matches, hoping to escape the Bundesliga basement, while Karlsruhe will host Heidenheim in the 2. Bundesliga.
