DDR the Cup

The Cup. Perhaps the only real football in DDR ever since the Stassi decided to run the show. Dynamo (Berlin) reached the final, yet for another try, but direct elimination was harder to fix than whole championship. Dynamo (Dresden) was the other finalist and won the final 2-1. All goals were scored in the last ten minutes – in fact, Dresden killed Berlin in two minutes. Dorner opened the score in the 81 minute and in the 82nd Hafner made it 2-0. Troppa narrowed the gap in the 85th minute, but there was no time for anything else.

With this winter match the attack of the title really started, but it did not translate into winning the Cup. Thus, Dynamo (Berlin), so supreme and heavily helped by the state remained with single Cup, won in the very distant 1959.

Dynamo (Dresden) won its 6th Cup. Only 1. FC Magdeburg won more cups than them at the moment.
