Tooor for Eintracht Frankfurt, 0:3 by Jesper Lindstrøm

19:12
The fact that the guests made it 2-0 after a corner kick is not surprising. Frankfurt scored for the ninth time from a set piece – the best in the Bundesliga!
37
19:10
For a long time, this game had been going back and forth. Frankfurt is now taking a more controlled approach to the whole thing and is also being left “in peace” by Gladbach. Not much happens in this phase.
34
19:06
There have been four yellow cards so far, all four of which went to key players. Three defensive midfielders and Jakic as a central defender are preloaded and that in a game in which there are a lot of duels in the centre. The actors definitely have to be careful.
32
19:03
Yellow card for Kristijan Jakic (Eintracht Frankfurt)
Jakic goes to the ball, but drives Plea into the parade from behind. Here, too, yellow is absolutely fine.
29
19:00
Tooor for Eintracht Frankfurt, 0:2 by Éric Dina-Ebimbe
Lenz smashes a corner from the left into the centre, where Éric Dina-Ebimbe bolts up and heads the ball beautifully into the far corner! That’s 2-0 for the Hessians!
27
18:58
After a corner by the foals, Frankfurt counterattacks to measure! The ball comes through Götze to Dina-Ebimbe, who has a lot of grass in front of him and puts it through to Kolo Muani at just the right moment. This initially passes Sippel, but puts the ball a little too far in front of him and no longer gets the ball in the direction of the goal with enough force.
25
18:55
Yellow card for Daichi Kamada (Eintracht Frankfurt)
Kamada goes into the duel with Thuram with an open sole. He also catches a lot of the ball, but also the opponent’s shin. Yellow is ok with that.
21
18:54
Kramer gets the ball from the left and has a short moment on the penalty area. He wonderfully lifts the ball to the right at Stindl, who volleys from almost twelve meters. The ball is not placed enough and so Trapp can defend again here.
18
18:48
Yellow card for Julian Weigl (Bor. Mönchengladbach)
We note the next yellow card, this time for Julian Weigl. This comes a step too late with a sliding tackle and the ticket is also fine here.
16
18:47
Yellow card for Kouadio Koné (Bor. Mönchengladbach)
Kone attacks Kamada in the build-up game and completely steps on the foot of the Frankfurter. Kone, Farke and all other Gladbachers see it differently, but the card is quite justified. It is also the fifth yellow card for Kone, who will have to watch Union next week.
14
18:46
However, these two chances are an expression of the playful orientation of both teams. There is definitely space behind the defensive chains for both offensive lines.
10
18:43
Trapp saves the lead! Gladbach actually only clears the ball, but Thuram goes after it courageously and pokes the ball off Jakic’s foot. Suddenly, the Frenchman runs freely towards the goal, but fails because of Trapp, who holds on to the 1-0 with a great foot save.
8th.
18:41
Kolo Muani is now sent off himself by a long ball and goes into the penalty area on the half-right. However, his low shot clearly misses the far post!

18:37
Tooor for Eintracht Frankfurt, 0:1 by Jesper Lindstrøm
There’s the early leadership of the guests! Stindl plays a bad pass into Ndicka’s feet on the offensive. This immediately plays deep on Kolo Muani. The offensive man turns quickly and sends Lindstrøm on the journey. With a bit of luck, he will prevail against several defenders and is suddenly free in front of the box. At the end of the game, the attacker is also a little dizzy, but in the end he won’t care.
4.
18:37
Frankfurt has a little more of the game in the first few minutes and is not deterred by the fact that Gladbach sometimes defends very high.

18:32
Here we go! Gladbach toasts in the white jerseys. Frankfurt is all in black today.
18:05
The performance of the Adlerträger last week in the 5-1 win over Leverkusen unsurprisingly impressed coach Oliver Glasner. The trainer therefore sees no reason for any changes and sends the same starting XI into the race as against the Werkself.
18:00
With the Stuttgarter Kickers, Eintracht Frankfurt had a somewhat easier cup draw during the week. With 2: 0, the Hessians solved the mandatory task lackluster but sovereign. If you add the 5-1 win against Leverkusen last weekend, it’s now two competitive wins in a row, after embarrassing yourself in Bochum (0-3) and not rewarding in Tottenham (2-3). In the league, that meant fifth place before the match day, one point ahead of today’s opponents, who of course we would like to keep at a distance or expand on.
17:53
The Gladbach team also paid a very high price for the end of the cup. With Yann Sommer and Jonas Hofmann, two top performers were seriously injured and will probably be out until the World Cup break. Today the two are replaced by Sippel and Stindl compared to the cup appearance in Darmstadt.
17:50
16 points, sixth place before matchday, three points behind second place. Actually, the world in Mönchengladbach should be fine, you could say when looking at the table. Basically, the foals are not dissatisfied with the course of the season, but Daniel Farke’s men have had one or two dropouts. A few weeks ago, for example, the 1:5 in Bremen, which was immediately made up for with a 5:2 derby win against Cologne. During the week there was now the bitter end of the cup at Darmstadt 98 and so it is time for the Niederrhein team to react again today.
17:39
Good evening and welcome to the top game of the eleventh game day! At 6:30 p.m., Borussia Mönchengladbach welcomes Eintracht from Frankfurt at home in Borussia Park!
