Squad

Noah Atubolu keeps Eintracht Frankfurt in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 17 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Match

Nowhere to hide for Eintracht Frankfurt

2‑6 against Bayern Munich, and no complaints that would survive the replay. The manager spoke about character afterwards; the terraces used shorter words.

Squad

The step up is real for Can Uzun

At 20 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

Squad

Words exchanged at Eintracht Frankfurt

Lilian Brassier and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Match

Leroy Sané among the goals in a wild afternoon

8 goals in one match, Leroy Sané on the scoresheet, and a scoreline that will look like a misprint. Neutrals could not have asked more of Eintracht Frankfurt and Bayern Munich.

Market

No place for Mahmoud Dahoud in the plan

“The manager did not use many words, and he did not need to.” Mahmoud Dahoud has his answer from Eintracht Frankfurt; what he does with it is the next window’s story.

Player ratings

Leroy Sané in the eights

A performance of 8.03 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Market

Otávio wants European nights

The general version of this complaint is that a player wants more. The specific version names the thing: he wants to walk out under floodlights against clubs from other countries, and he has stopped pretending otherwise.

Squad

Timothy Chandler signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Timothy Chandler and Eintracht Frankfurt agree another 1 years.

In brief
