Five minutes before half-time Mönchengladbach went ahead by a goal from Lothar Matthäus, but just two minutes later Norbert Meier equalized for Bremen. Another two minutes later Norbert Ringels restored Mönchengladbach to 2–1 at half-time. In the 76th minute, lead was further extended to 3–1 via Uwe Rahn.

After the Bremen's third goal, Gladbach coach Jupp Heynckes substituted striker Hans-Jörg Criens into the match, which would prove to be vital. In the 88th minute, Wilfried Hannes put the ball into the back of the net, but the referee Franz-Josef Hontheim did not award the goal after it was called offside by the linesman. Bremen could not hold on however, and in the fifth minute of stoppage time substitute Hans-Jörg Criens proved decisive by netting the equalizer for Borussia, and sending the match into extra time. In extra time, both teams had numerous opportunities to score. In the end, Criens once again proved himself decisive by scoring what would be the game-winning goal for Mönchengladbach in the 107th minute, sending them to the final. Special occurrences Midway through the second half, there was unrest within Bremen's fan blocks, which was located behind the goal of Gladbach keeper Ulrich Sude. During the game, an object was thrown onto the pitch, which released smoke. Initially the object was thought to be a smoke bomb, but after Wolfgang Sidka, Uwe Rahn and goalkeeper Sude were contaminated by the smoke, the game had to be stopped for a few minutes. On the pitch there were scuffles between players and coaches of both teams, triggered by Michael Frontzeck bumping into Bremen coach Otto Rehhagel, who had rushed onto the field, worried about Sidka. Referee Hontheim had to calm the situation. Meanwhile, the smoke was determined to be tear gas, which even began to affect the spectators. The police marched into Bremen's block and arrested several people. After the final whistle, Bremen's sporting director Wilfried Lemke protested against the validity of the match, but he withdrew, as both teams were affected by the incident.http://www.11freunde.de/bundesligen/118327 Fußball - Bundesligen - DFB-Pokal 1984: Gladbach-Bremen 5:4 n.V. - Kniefall vor dem Spiel 2 August 2016 https://web.archive.org/web/20110114081040/http://www.11freunde.de/bundesligen/118327 14 January 2011 dead dmy-all Miscellaneous The match was considered the debut of "super-sub" Hans-Jörg Criens, who had played a part in several crucial and important goals.
