Former Dortmund defender Christoph Metzelder matched BVB up against fellow Bundesliga outfit Borussia Mönchengladbach on Sunday evening.
The Black and Yellows had little trouble beating 3. Liga KFC Uerdingen 2-0 in the first DFB Pokal round a week ago. The second round won’t be easy pickings.
For the first time since 2008/09, BVB play against a team from the Bundesliga in the second round of the German Cup.
.@CMetzelder hat's getan: Im @fussballmuseum hat der Vizeweltmeister von 2002 unter den kritischen Augen von #U21-Trainer und Ziehungsleiter Stefan #Kuntz die 16 Paarungen der 2️⃣. Runde im #DFBPokal ausgelost. Und das sind sie. pic.twitter.com/Hrbs8l9gfS

The match will be played at the Westfalenstadion either on the 29. or 30. October — about 10 days after the two teams meet in the Bundesliga.
The second cup round will be between the Revierderby and the match against Wolfsburg.
