Events

Match Events

0' The ball is rolling at Deutsche Bank Park. Eintracht Frankfurt are looking to make home advantage count against Borussia Dortmund.
5' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Eintracht Frankfurt side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
10' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
15' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Eintracht Frankfurt and Borussia Dortmund are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
18' Hugo Ekitike adds to his 0 season tally! Eintracht Frankfurt lead 1-0 — and this changes everything.
23' With 2 assists to his name this season, Maximilian Beier is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Eintracht Frankfurt.
28' It looks surprising Eintracht Frankfurt does not make any changes. Ansgar Knauff has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
33' named a 3-1-4-2 earlier, and opted for a 4-1-3-2 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
38' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
43' Eintracht Frankfurt is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
46' Time for substitution for Borussia Dortmund. Ramy Bensebaini is replaced by Yan Couto.
51' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Borussia Dortmund that had 521 games and scored 798 goals.
56' Borussia Dortmund come into this ranked 10 in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
61' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
66' A quiet spell here at Deutsche Bank Park. Borussia Dortmund seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
71' Karim Adeyemi has so much to prove this time. He replaces Julian Brandt on 71 minute.
72' Another change for Borussia Dortmund made on 72 minute. Felix Kalu Nmecha leaves to be changed by Maximilian Beier.
74' The whistle greets Rasmus Kristensen as he departs to be replaced by Tuta.
75' Eintracht Frankfurt make a change. Hugo Larsson trudges off to be replaced by Oscar Hojlund on 75 minutes.
77' Borussia Dortmund player sees a card in front of him.
78' Sehrou Guirassy has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 78.
83' Sehrou Guirassy has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 34 appearances with only 8 goals this season.
87' Mario Gotze makes way for Can Uzun at the 87 minute mark. A tactical switch from Eintracht Frankfurt.
90' A tactical swap from Eintracht Frankfurt — Fares Chaibi on, Hugo Ekitike off on 90 minutes.
2-0 the final result. Borussia Dortmund will be bitterly disappointed.
