Bab 282:  Dream Start!

 Everything was ready, and with the referee leading the way, the players from both sides filed out to the playing field.

 The moment the players came out, they were immediately greeted with loud cheers from the Leverkusen home fans.

 Only, the fans in the stands, all pass in Leverkusen's jersey, originally reserved for Bayern Munich's away fans, but also occupied by the home fans.

 Leverkusen fans know that this semifinal of the German Cup will directly decide the final champion.

 This is because the two opponents in the other semi-final group are Schalke 04, who are ranked twelfth in the Bundesliga, and Mainz, who are ranked fourth.

 Whoever of these two will win the semi-final is no match for Leverkusen & Bayern Munich.

 So this semi-final for Leverkusen evolved into the final.
