After leaving the DFB Cup, Frankfurt Eintracht has several reasons to be dissatisfied. Players and decision makers struggle with tight decisions, the lack of a video referee, and their own performance. The voices.

Frankfurter Eintracht missed the jump to the knockout stages of the DFB Cup. Coach Adi Hütter’s team had to face league competitor Bayer Leverkusen on Tuesday night defeat 1: 4 (1: 1).
Fredi Bobic: The course of the game was very unfortunate for us. We entered very well, but then Amin Younes got injured and there was a hiatus in the game. Then we came back well in the second half and scored an offside goal, which is bitter. It’s a shame that the DFB is saving on the VAR. In the end we pushed everything forward, but then we were countered and Leverkusen deserved to win. We love the trophy, but now we focus on the Bundesliga. We are on the right track and we want to beat Schalke 04 on Sunday. We hope we can do it all (mit Luka Jovic, Anm. d. Red.) Now get into dry cloths. We are very happy that Luka is coming home, where he has felt comfortable, and that we have a great option. I think the Eintracht Frankfurt fans are very happy.

Adi Hütter: We lost the opportunity to go to the next round. We started incredibly well and took the lead deservedly. For me, the key scene was that we didn’t make it 2-0 because of André Silva’s chance. You have to score or pass the ball. The move that Erik Durm made: It’s a natural hand movement, he gets shot, but there is an immediate penalty. The 2: 1 is offside for me. Those are the sticking points of a game. I think Dingert didn’t have a good day. The video evidence would certainly have done him good. But in the end, you always have to look at yourself as guilty. We couldn’t get back into the game outnumbered. Amin Younes’ injury hurt us incredibly, at first he was the engine of our game.

Sebastian Rode: We are very disappointed, even when we play against strong opponents. We had food in mind. But a lot of things went against us, so it just didn’t work out. The penalty was very annoying. There was no VAR. It is very difficult with the rule of the hand. Erik’s arm is only slightly away from the body, so you must have a safe instinct.

Martin Hinteregger: We left, that was not the plan. However, we show a very mature and good performance. Amin’s failure hurt us because he is in top form right now. But we played a good game and we demanded everything from Leverkusen. So we lost 4-1, but we are happy with our style of play.
Peter Bosz (Leverkusen coach): We are very relieved. Because you saw that it was not easy at first. Frankfurt was the best team there, but we struggled to get back into the game after falling behind, and we did very well. But we play against a very good team, how do they start, how do they push. It was not easy. But then we played better football and in the end we deserved to win.
Lukas Hradecky (Bayer Leverkusen): Frankfurt almost played us out of bounds for the first 20, 25 minutes. That was great, they had a good run. We knew it was going to be difficult. Some may say that we earn a lot undeservedly. But we were effective and showed the will to fight. It was difficult to play soccer on this field. We are one lap ahead, that’s what makes me most happy. But I’m sorry I had to beat my old team, I still have strong relationships with many. That’s only part of it. I wish David Abraham all the best for the next step in his career.
