Early August Competition UPDATED WITH TIMES

Park Jung Bin kicked things off with the 2. Bundesliga, having been on the bench for their first match, and soon the top tier of football will kick off soon, first with cup and international competitions.  Since most of these won't be televised and with potential transfer madness still pending, I'm not following traditional format for now but I will do my best to update as schedules/players change.

Europa League:

August 1st:
Ki Sung Yueng and Swansea will host the winner of the Malmo / Hibernian qualifiers (2-0) in the first leg of Europa League qualification match.


DFB Cup:

August 3rd:
Son Heung Min and Bayer Leverkusen to SV Lippstadt (9:30 AM ET).  Son's first competitive fixture.
Koo Ja Cheol and Wolfsburg to Karlsruher SC (2:30 PM ET)
Park Joo Ho and Mainz to Fortuna Koeln (9:30 AM ET)


Football League Cup:

August 6th:
Lee Chung Yong and Bolton at Shrewsbury Town
Park Ji Sung / Yun Suk Young at Exeter City


Also a reminder that I try to follow our 2nd tier guys (Park Jung Bin at Gruether Fuerth, Kim Kyung Jung at Caen) particularly on twitter but do not publish schedules or keep close watch.  Also Jeong Chang-Geun looks to be in the CFA squad for Nantes so I won't include him in schedule until he suits up with first team.
