Germany, DFB Pokal QF. The first two games were '2. Bundesliga teams only':

FC St. Pauli - Fortuna Düsseldorf 1:1 after the regular time, 2:2 after extra time, Düsseldorf won the PSO
Hertha BSC - 1. FC Kaiserslautern 1:3 (Hertha wasted a huge chance, with a win they would have been one step away from playing the final in their own stadium, a dream of every Hertha fan)

Next TUE/WED the other two QF's will take place:

Bayer Leverkusen - VfB Stuttgart
1. FC Saarbrücken - Borussia Mönchengladbach

The winner of Leverkusen - Stuttgart is obviously the big favorite for the cup. Even though I wouldn't be surprised if Leverkusen gets 2nd place in all three competitions (Bundesliga, EL, DFB Pokal) again, it also happened in 2001/02 (with CL instead of EL, of course). Leverkusen only won two real titles in the club history: the UEFA Cup in 1988 and the DFB Pokal in 1993.

Bala Town 3-0 Flint Mountain

The top four clubs in Cymru Premier have qualified to the Cup SFs!

The SFs are:
Cardiff MU vs The New Saints (30 March)

The rules for Cymru Premier are: The winners qualify for the 2024–25 CL-Q1. The runners-up, play-off winners, and 2023–24 Welsh Cup winners (or the third-placed team if the Welsh Cup winners finish in the top two of the Cymru Premier) qualify for the 2024–25 ECL-Q1. In that case, the play-offs (for the third ECL-Q1 position) will be between clubs in positions 4-7. Then, Connah's Quay Nomads will be really close to European qualification.
