Wolfsburg routs 5th-tier team Hemelingen 9-0 in German Cup, Leipzig also advances

BERLIN (AP) — Wolfsburg routed fifth-tier SV Hemelingen 9-0 in the first round of the German Cup on Saturday, when other Bundesliga teams also enjoyed big wins over lower-league opposition. Two-time champion Leipzig twice came from behind to beat fourth-tier SV Sandhausen 4-2 with new signings Ezechiel Banzuzi and Yan Diomande both scoring. Heidenheim won 5-0 at 10-man fourth-tier Bahlinger SC and Hoffenheim won 4-0 at third-division Hansa Rostock. Hamburger SV, which clinched its return to the Bundesliga last season, survived a scare at fifth-tier Pirmasens, equalizing late to send the match to extra time, where Ransford-Yeboah Königsdörffer headed the winner for 2-1. Königsdörffer was only playing for Hamburg because a proposed early August move to Nice broke down after his medical check with the French team. Bochum also needed a late goal to level before prevailing 3-1 at nine-man Dynamo Berlin. Thursdays Keep up to date on sports with Mike McIntyre's weekly newsletter. ___ AP soccer:
