DFB Pokal: Ukoh Scores; Liverpool Loanee Awoniyi In 18; No Debut For Noah Bazee

Here is a round-up of Nigerian players that were in action for their respective clubs in the German DFB Cup on Saturday, August 10.

We begin with FC 08 Villingen's  1 - 3 defeat to Fortuna Düsseldorf. Stephen Ukoh opened the scoring for Villingen in the 42nd minute as he converted from the spot.

However, his team couldn't hold on to the lead as they conceded  three goals in a game that reached extra time.

Liverpool loanee Taiwo Awoniyi was included in Mainz 05's squad list but was an unused substitute throughout the encounter.

His side, Mainz 05, couldn't progress to the next round of the competition after losing 2-0 to the home team FC Kaiserslautern.

Still in the same competition, Super Eagles winger Noah Bazee wasn't involved in Augsburg's 2-1 defeat to SC Verl.

The German-born star will hope to break into the team's starting line-up as soon as possible.
