The Bayer 04 eSports players were able to show their talent in the first game: In the first 1 vs 1 against the Hassloch player Maxim ‘ElDoll’ Doll, Marc ‘MARC_LDW23’ Landwehr secured a runaway 7-1 victory.

The win qualifies the Bayer 04 eSports players for the second round of the DFB eCup on 26 April.
