The transfer of Omar Marmoush to Manchester City in mid-January brought Eintracht Frankfurt 75 million euros, but opened up a big gap. Since the Egyptian top scorer left, the Bundesliga fourth-placed team has won just one of seven league games and lost three times recently.
In the home game against relegation-threatened Union Berlin (1:2), Eintracht Frankfurt took the lead with the first goal from new signing Michy Batshuayi in the opening quarter of an hour. After the break, Leopold Querfeld (62') and Woo-Yeong Jeong (78') turned the game around. Hugo Ekitiké missed the chance to equalize when he failed to beat Union goalkeeper Frederik Rönnow with a penalty.
Eintracht Frankfurt, who were without Aurèle Amenda in their squad, were successful in the Europa League. Next Thursday, Dino Toppmöller's team will defend a 2:1 lead from the first leg at home against Ajax Amsterdam.
