That's the end of this live page now. Thanks for joining me today.

Come back tomorrow for Bayern Munich v Eintracht Frankfurt. See you then.

That is the end of the cup dream for Saarbrucken, whose season is over now. But they've still had a remarkable season - the first ever fourth tier side to reach the German Cup final - and promotion.

Would they have had a chance without a three-month break or some home fans? We'll never know.

The final whistle goes. Bayer Leverkusen are into the German Cup final, where they will face Bayern Munich or Eintracht Frankfurt on 4 July.

Two minutes added on.

Oh that was the chance! Markus Mendler has a glorious chance to score for the Regionalliga Sudwest champions, unmarked 14 yards out, but he volleys wide.

A great run by Kianz Froese down the right-hand side but his final pass ends up in the keeper's hands.

Here's the final change. Christopher Schorch comes off and Rasim Bulic is on for Saarbrucken.

Keeper catches.

They get their second corner of the game.

Saarbrucken are still having a go. Six minutes for them to find at least one goal to end their season with.

Pretty wild to get five subs and still need a sixth.

Karim Bellarabi limps off the pitch and behind the boardings. I think Bayer Leverkusen will end with 10 men. Hardly worth risking anything with this game all but over.

Now Paulinho shoots over the bar. By my calculations (looking at our stats and adding one) that's their 24th effort of the game.

Karim Bellarabi pounces on a poor goalkeeper clearance, turns his defender one way and then the other and shoots but Daniel Batz redeems himself with a save.

Here's the ninth change of the game as Fabian Eisele replaces Sebastian Jacob.

Excellent goalkeeping by Daniel Batz, who charges off his line to stop Kevin Volland's shot.

Batz saved five penalties - four in the shootout - in the previous round.

If you want an indication of the status of some of Saarbrucken's players, substitute Jayson Breitenbach is marked as a goalkeeper on the team's Wikipedia page - and does not have a wiki page of his own. He's a right-back.

Leverkusen's Kerem Demirbay grimaces as he runs off an injury. They've used all five subs.

Bayer Leverkusen scramble it away.

Saarbrucken have a corner. Their first since March.
