Goalkeeper Jonas Kersken: Third-division side Arminia Bielefeld pulled off a historic upset on Tuesday, rallying to defeat defending champion Bayer Leverkusen 2-1 and secure their first-ever German Cup final berth.

Leverkusen appeared in control early when Jonathan Tah volleyed home Amine Adli's 17th-minute corner at the back post. Bielefeld, however, refused to buckle. Marius Worl pounced on a loose ball just three minutes later, slotting calmly past goalkeeper Lukas Hradecky to level the match.

The underdogs struck again on the stroke of halftime. Louis Oppie's whipped free kick found Maximilian Grosser at the far post, whose clinical volley sent the home crowd into raptures.
