The 1. FC Heidenheim is struggling, but there is nothing to get against Eintracht Frankfurt on the 29th matchday of the Bundesliga. The Ostalb team is on the relegation place. With the opponent, the qualification for the Champions League is becoming more and more likely.
Eintracht Frankfurt took a big step towards Champions League and impressively mastered the dress rehearsal for the cracker against Tottenham Hotspur. At the end of the 29th Bundesliga game day against the 1st FC Heidenheim, the Hessen won 3-0 (2-0) and thus strengthened their third place in the table. Jean-Matteo Bahoya (10th minute) and captain Robin Koch (42nd) caused relatively clear conditions before half-time. Hugo Ekitiké (71.) later pushed the third goal.
The Eintracht left the Europa League on Thursday before the quarter-final second leg of the Europa League (9 p.m./RTL, RTL+ and in the NTV.de Live ticker) No doubt about a sovereign home win. In front of 57,500 spectators, coach Dino Toppmöller was even able to leave his central forces Mario Götze and Hugo Larsson on the bench and only change it in the 70th minute.
Eintracht’s lead to fifth place in the league is a comfortable five points. In contrast to Eintracht, Tottenham lost his last test before the second leg. After the 2: 4 at the Wolverhampton Wanderers, the former top team slipped in 15th place in the Premier League.
Heidenheim has to plan with relegation
In these table regions there is also the harmless guest from Heidenheim, who remains in 16th place. The deserved defeat of Frankfurt is a little easier to cope with, since the rival Bochum (1: 2 against Augsburg) and Kiel (1: 2 against St. Pauli) lost late. In view of seven points, the jump to 15th place should no longer be realistic.
Even without ex-world champion Götze and permanent runner Larsson, the Hessen stated the tone from the start. Bahoya’s sharp cross would almost have brought the lead after 77 seconds. A few minutes later it worked on the presentation of the last badly criticized Fares Chaibi. Top striker Hugo Ekitiké also had several chances (5th/15th) on an early goal. Full -back Arthur Theat only hit the outside network.
As a defense chief Koch, who has made a massive profile in the past few weeks, to look at the second goal before the change, Heidenheim was already demoralizing after a half. A symbol for the great uncertainty was a conclusion from Marvin Pieringer, who dropped past the gate completely freely from a short distance.
Santos this time unemployed
Eintracht goalkeeper Kaua Santos, who saved the 1-1 against oppressively superior Spurs on Thursday in London on Thursday in London. However, if the young Brazilian was needed, he was there. Routinier Kevin Trapp is currently injured and could have lost his regular place after returning.
“You have to say very clearly that Kaua is really, very good. You have seen in training again and again that he is a very great talent that he has a lot of potential. The services he has now shown also helped us to be successful,” said Trapp at DAZN. After his return, the coach will make a decision, says Trapp. Toppmöller had recently avoided an early determination.
