1938 Tschammerpokal

The 1938 Tschammerpokal was the 4th season of the annual German football cup competition. For the first time, Austrian teams competed in the competition due to the Anschluss by Nazi Germany at the beginning of the year. In the final, which was held on 8 January 1939 at the Olympiastadion in Berlin, Austrian club Rapid Wien defeated FSV Frankfurt 3–1.

Quarter-finals
In the quarter-finals, the eight German teams (Altreich) were paired internally in an elimination round. The eight teams from Austria (now called Ostmark due to the Anschluss) were also paired in an internal elimination round. The winners then met in a joint quarter-final round. The pairings were entirely random.
