England has two domestic knockout tournaments, the FA Cup<\/a> and the Carabao Cup. In contrast, Germany has only one major cup competition, the DFB-Pokal.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

The competition is steeped in history, because its first edition took place in 1935. Nurnberg claimed that inaugural title against Schalke 04, in front of 55,000 fans at the Rheinstadion.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

Nearly a century later, the tournament is still going strong and remains well-regarded among Germany\u2019s elite clubs. Winning it also grants access to the Europa League.<\/p>\n\n\n
