Elsewhere, Hertha Berlin ran out 3-1 winners against Kaiserslautern to secure their place in the last eight.

However, goals from Pierre-Michel Lasogga and Patrick Ebert sealed the win for the capital city side. Regionalliga Nord side Holstein Kiel beat Mainz 2-0 thanks to an own goal by Anthony Ujah and Steve Muller's second-half strike. Ujah turned the ball into his own net in the sixth minute before Muller sealed the win midway through the second half.
