Bayern draw Leverkusen away in semis

By Daily Sports on February 12, 2018

Runaway Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich will face Bayer Leverkusen in the German Cup semifinals in April after being handed another tough away tie in Sunday's draw.

Bayern are hunting a 19th German Cup title as they look to book their place in the final at Berlin's Olympic Stadium on May 19.

The Bavarian giants won 3-1 at Leverkusen's BayArena last month in the Bundesliga, but Heiko Herrlich's side, currently fifth in the league, could test Bayern.

"Firstly, I am very pleased that we will play at home," said Leverkusen's CEO Michael Schade.

"It's a tough draw, but the desire to reach the final is big and we want to go to Berlin."

Jupp Heynckes' Bayern have not had an easy run and needed a penalty shoot-out to win at RB Leipzig in the second round, before beating Borussia Dortmund and thrashing third-division Paderborn 6-0 in the quarterfinals on Tuesday.
