Eintracht Frankfurt has ended its two-month winless streak. In the important Bundesliga home game against Borussia Mönchengladbach, the Hessians deservedly won 3-0 (2-0) against Borussia Mönchengladbach on Saturday. For new Eintracht coach Albert Riera, it was his first win in his first home game. The Frankfurters acted extremely efficiently, Nathaniel Brown (24th), Ayoube Amaimouni-Echghouyab (34th) and Ansgar Knauff (75th) scored the goals. The hosts climbed past SC Freiburg in the table to seventh place. Eintracht coach Riera helped the former third division player Amaimouni-Echghouyab make his starting eleven debut in the Bundesliga. The winter signing from Hoffenheim II was allowed to start on the right wing. Ritsu Doan slid further into the center. While the nomination of Aurèle Amenda in the back four in place of the injured Arthur Theate was expected, that of Jean-Mattéo Bahoya as a left winger came as a surprise. Coach decisions that should pay off. Although Frankfurt’s striker epidemic continued early in the game when the only remaining attacker Arnaud Kalimuendio had to be substituted with midfielder Mo Dahoud with a shoulder injury (11th), the Hessians went into the locker room with a 2-0 lead. More or less for three reasons. Firstly, Bahoya and Brown skilfully played their way free on the left against two Gladbachers. Bahoya finally fed Brown, who scored his second goal of the Riera era with his weaker right foot (24th). Secondly, Amaimouni-Echghouyab flicked a ball from the left into the far corner from half-right in the well-known Arjen Robben style, again with Bahoya providing the assist (34th). And thirdly, Eintracht’s efficiency was offset by very negligent guests offensively. The 12:4 shots on goal in the first half clearly spoke for Borussia, as did the 57 percent of ball possession. On their own, the foals found the last pass or finish too imprecise. Eintracht were able to blow through at halftime, but at the same time they had to be warned. In contrast to the first leg, when the Frankfurt team almost squandered a 5-0 half-time lead and the 6-4 win felt like a defeat, the Hessians remained focused this time. Goalkeeper Kaua Santos had to make good saves here and there (48th, 83rd), or defense chief Robin Koch had to intervene. All in all, Eintracht were pretty good defensively – especially compared to the three-goal games we’ve seen so often this year. On the one hand. On the other hand, it should be mentioned that the Frankfurters – in the absence of a trained striker on the field – still had a lot of room for improvement, especially offensively. The final score was 3-0 after a strong individual performance from substitute Knauff, who first took the ball from his opponent and then a few meters before remaining ice cold in front of the goal (75th). Frankfurt’s relief at the first three-pointer since December 13th against FC Augsburg was clearly noticeable after the final whistle. – We at FUSSBALL 2000 – the Eintracht video podcast talk about #Eintracht Frankfurt like no one else.
