After having achieved a feat on the European scene, qualifying for the semi-finals of the Europa League last Thursday by beating FC Barcelona in a Camp Nou won over to their cause, the players of Eintracht Frankfurt (10th) found the Bundesliga this Sunday, for a trip to the capital to challenge Union Berlin (8th) on the occasion of the 30th day. The return to reality was terrible for Frankfurt, who quickly conceded two goals in quick succession by Awoniyi (17th) and Proemel (21st). Eintracht players will never return to the game and Union Berlin of Switzerland’s Urs Fischer is doing well in its quest for European qualification.
At the same time, Hoffenheim (7th) welcomed the red lantern, Greuther Furth (18th) and wanted to take advantage of this seemingly easy meeting to climb to 6th place, qualifying for the next Europa League Conference, before the last four days against more serious objections. However, despite a certain domination, Hoffenheim lacked realism in front of goal (13 shots, 3 on target) and failed to make the difference (0-0). With 11 points behind Stuttgart four days before the end of the season, 16th and first automatic non-relegation, Greuther Furth, with his goal difference of (-48), should, barring a more than improbable exploit, regain antechamber of German football next season, while Hoffenheim sees Union Berlin settle in 6th place in the standings.
