Soccer - "No matter how": 1. FC Nürnberg wants to reach the DFB Cup quarter-finals

After two crushing defeats in the league, 1 FC Nuremberg are looking for a change of mood with a win in the DFB Cup round of 16 at 1 FC Kaiserslautern. "We finally have to do our thing again," said coach Cristian Fiel, calling for his team to be more active with the ball in the away game on Tuesday (18:00). The aim of the second-division soccer club is to reach the quarter-finals, which comes with a prize of around 1.7 million euros. "No matter what, that's what we want to achieve," said Fiel on Monday.

His team lost 4-1 at Karlsruher SC a week ago and conceded an even worse 5-0 defeat to Fortuna Düsseldorf in their own stadium on Saturday. Midfielder Jens Castrop, who was recently suspended in the league, is injured and therefore questionable.
