LEIPZIG, Germany (AP) — Benjamin Šeško’s penalty was enough for Leipzig to book the last semifinal spot in the German Cup with a 1-0 win over Wolfsburg in their quarterfinal on Wednesday. Leipzig, which won the competition in 2023, joined third-tier Arminia Bielefeld, Stuttgart and defending champion Bayer Leverkusen in the last four.

RB Leipzig needed a well-taken second-half penalty from forward Benjamin Sesko to edge VfL Wolfsburg 1-0 on Wednesday and reach the German Cup last four.

Benjamin Sesko's winner secured RB Leipzig a 1-0 victory against Bundesliga rivals VfL Wolfsburg on Wednesday and a spot in the German Cup semi-finals. Sesko broke the deadlock from the spot in the 69th minute after Leipzig were awarded a penalty because Kilian Fischer deflected the ball inside the box with his hand.

A second-half Benjamin Sesko penalty steered RB Leipzig to a 1-0 win at home to Wolfsburg and a place in the semi-finals of the German Cup on Wednesday. The draw for the semi-finals will be made on Sunday.
