In Frankfurt's first competitive match under returning coach Adi Hutter, they were in complete control against the amateur side as they bounced back from a 7-0 drubbing at the hands of Brentford in a friendly in London last Saturday.
The victory was five-time champions Frankfurt's biggest ever German Cup victory, the biggest win for any side since 2021, and the 10-0 half-time score was the highest in the 84-year history of the competition.
Germany striker Jonathan Burkardt scored a hat-trick, Can Uzun hit a brace while Robin Koch, Ayoube Amaimouni, Elias Baum, Younes Ebnoutalib and Mario Gotze all scored in the first half, with Fares Chaibi adding an 11th late in the second period.
Later on Friday, 2025 winners and last season's finalists Stuttgart cruised to a 4-0 victory over third-division Hansa Rostock, with debutant Dzenan Pejcinovic scoring a hat-trick.
