Eintracht Frankfurt celebrate an important away win with a 2-1 win over Borussia Dortmund (match report >>>). Adi Hütter’s men distanced black and yellow by seven points in the fight for fourth and last place in the Champions League seven days before the end.
The win in the first Bundesliga top game on Saturday came in a razor’s edge game just late. Andre Silva scored the winning goal in the 87th minute after Schulz’s own goal (11th) and Hummels’ equalizer (45th) were tied for a long time.
Even before that, Stefan Ilsanker could have been an Austrian match winner, but his 2: 1 assumption is pulled by VAR due to an offside position. The ÖFB legionary didn’t care, he foresaw victory.
“When I was denied the goal, I was not disappointed. Because I knew we would shoot another,” said “Ilse” confidently and was even convinced: “Dortmund were extremely passive against the ball and left us a lot of space. We used it incredibly well. Unfortunately, , we couldn’t concentrate and we weren’t happy at the end. Otherwise, we could have won the highest game. “
Coach Adi Hütter praised Ilsanker especially: “The best thing a player can do is impress with his performance. Stefan did it.”
Courage won
Hütter was completely satisfied with the performance of his Eintracht even away from the defensive player. “I saw from the first minute that we were fourth because we were brave. The result is deserved, even if BVB had scoring chances. But we had clearer chances and we really wanted to win. That made me proud.”
Even with training, the Austrian himself showed courage, and that continued on the field. As Dortmund had enough chances to score, Hütter could have lived with a draw.
“The fact that we then go 2-1 is, of course, huge,” he emphasized.
As a reward for courage, there was finally a “great victory”, as sporting director Fredi Bobic was also pleased.
BVB has “dug a hole”
For Borussia Dortmund, the loss to a direct competitor means a serious brake. BVB may well have to be satisfied with the Europa League next year.
Edin Terzic was aware of his own mistakes that led to 2-1: “Due to Frankfurt’s large number of chances, the defeat is ultimately not undeserved, even unfortunate. We had good opportunities, but not clear enough. There were lots of punts when we broke through, but precision was lacking and we didn’t start the second and third waves. “
The opponent was more consistent: “Eintracht were with four people in the penalty area, they filled the positions well. Not like us, so we are very disappointed. We were also not technically clean, we had too many unnecessary turnovers and thus trapped.” we counterattack ourselves. “
With the most recent appearances, they “dug a hole,” as Mats Hummels put it. “Even with six or seven wins, fourth place will be tough.”
