In the first round of the DFB-Pokal, Eintracht Frankfurt won against SC St. Tönis with a score of 11-0. This emphatic victory secured Frankfurt's advancement to the next round, as reported by several sources.

Additionally, VfB Stuttgart, Karlsruher SC, and 1. FC Kaiserslautern also proceeded to the second round. 1. FC Kaiserslautern triumphed over SV Waldhof Mannheim. However, the match between these two teams was marred by violence.

According to reports, numerous injuries occurred during this derby, further escalating the situation. Both clubs now face potential consequences as it appears that security measures at the arena were insufficient.

The incidents in Mannheim cast a dark shadow over the events of the first round of the cup. Officials from the affected clubs are under pressure to intervene following the riots and to bring about clarity.
