Mid-term conclusion:
Break in Frankfurt! After 45 minutes, an intense and entertaining top game between Eintracht Frankfurt and Bayern Munich goes into the dressing room with a 0-0 draw. Both teams started furiously right from the start. Kostić had the best chance of the first half after just seven minutes when he put the ball wide of the post in front of Ulreich. The leaders are dominant as usual, determine the game and scored good chances through Musiala (9th), Coman (24th, 39th) and Lewandowski (34th), but let the 1-0 lie. The bottom line is that the draw at the break is okay. So everything remains open for the second round. We’re excited to see what the two coaches come up with during the break. See you soon!

19:12
Frankfurt’s goalkeeper has to be treated briefly after the effective hit. But it will probably continue.
39
19:12
Almost 23 meters from the goal, Kimmich takes a high ball down with his chest and volleys it to the right corner. Trapp can only let the shot go, but quickly gets up and blocks Coman’s follow-up shot. The Frankfurter gets the ball in the defensive action in the face.

Yellow card for Lucas Hernández (Bayern Munich)
…as well as Munich are warned.

Yellow card for Christopher Lenz (Eintracht Frankfurt)
A pack is formed because Bayern does not play the ball out when a player from Frankfurt is on the ground. Lenz and Hernández clash. Both the Frankfurt…
29
19:02
Almost half an hour has passed. Furthermore, it is a very entertaining game. Even if Bayern are optically superior, Frankfurt had the best chance of the game through Kostić.
26

Kostić’s corner from the right is headed wide by Tuta’s near post.
24

The record champion controls the game, but is extremely high as usual. Frankfurt is lurking for counterattack chances.
16

Musiala has some space in the center and sends Pavard steeply down the right lane. The Frenchman plays sharply on the second post, where Gnabry misses by a hair’s breadth.
15
18:47
Knauff pulls into the middle from the right and leaves the ball for Kostić, who takes a powerful shot from 17 meters out. Ulreich raises his fists and parries the shot.

In the first few minutes it goes up and down. Really good start to the top game.

18:42
Now the Bavarians again! Kimmich picks up Kostić’s header and crosses towards the penalty spot, where Musiala comes in but heads just over the bar.
7
18:39
huge opportunity for Frankfurt! The counter of the SGE runs over the left side. Lindstrøm lets Süle out in the penalty area and puts through for Kostić, who sneaks the ball past Ulreich from a few yards out, but also past the right post.

18:36
First good chance of the game! After Coman’s cross, N’Dicka and Lenz didn’t get the ball right, so Pavard dropped a shot from a tight angle. But the ball goes clearly over the goal.

Hernández starts a first push down the left flank. His cross into the center is deflected and ends up in Trapp’s arms.

Bayern coach Nagelsmann’s record against SBU is very mixed. In the last four duels he remained without a win against Frankfurt and won only three of his twelve duels with the Adlerträger.
18:07
Nagelsmann also changes four times compared to the last league game. Süle, Coman, Musiala and Gnabry replace Richards, Tolisso, Müller and Sané in the starting XI.
17:59
There are four changes in the Frankfurt starting eleven after the 0-1 draw in Cologne. Glasner sends da Costa, Hrustić, Lenz and Knauff into the starting eleven instead of Chandler, Jakić, Rode and Borré.
17:51
FC Bayern’s sporting performances have been very mixed in recent weeks. Against Greuther Fürth, bottom of the table, they had more trouble than expected last weekend. Ultimately, however, the record champions won 4-1. “Our recent performances were decent at half-time, and then it’s good that one or the other is not satisfied,” said Julian Nagelsmann, looking at the performances of the last few weeks. In Frankfurt, Bayern’s coach is demanding a focused performance from his eleven in order to keep the lead at the top of the table: “The next five games in the league are important. That’s why it’s an important task in Frankfurt. They have good gall in connection with Frankfurt Fans. We want to keep the six-point gap.”
17:40
Eintracht Frankfurt is still looking for its form in 2022. In the second half of the season there were only four points from six games for the Adlerträger. A week ago they lost 1-0 at 1. FC Köln. Eintracht could encourage the first leg, however, when the SGE won 2-1 in Munich and thus celebrated the first win of the season and initiated the turning point. “Of course I reminded the boys of the first leg. We were determined to win the game. And that’s our motto again for Saturday. Such games are sometimes easier for the head, because everyone knows: If you don’t pull off an absolutely top performance against Bayern, you will leave the field as a loser,” said Frankfurt coach Oliver Glasner.
