Soccer-German Cup quarter-final Saarbruecken v Gladbach postponed

The German Cup quarter-final between Saarbruecken and Borussia Moenchengladbach on Wednesday was postponed shortly before kickoff due to the water-soaked pitch, the German Football Association said.

Heavy rain had made the pitch unplayable despite efforts to remove the water with blowers that continued up to the teams' warmup.

A new date will be set for the last remaining quarter-final, with Bayer Leverkusen, Fortuna Dusseldorf and Kaiserslautern already through to the last four.
