Eintracht Frankfurt has to settle for a 1-1 draw against Werder Bremen. The votes for the division of points in the Bundesliga.
Frankfurt – It was a wild Friday evening in Frankfurt. In the end it was 1-1, there were two red cards and controversial scenes in both penalty areas. And an Eintracht that was not at all satisfied with the draw against SV Werder Bremen.
Eintracht Frankfurt can't get past a 1-1 draw against Werder Bremen
First things first: The SGE actually got off to a decent start. But the game then became increasingly turbulent. Playback errors on both sides, inaccuracies, plus the once again bumpy Frankfurt track.
After the break it became more entertaining. After 49 minutes, Frankfurt called for a penalty after Amos Pieper tugged, pulled and even hugged Robin Koch. The Frankfurter managed to get a header after a Chaibi free kick, but was barely able to place it - also because of Pieper's resistance. However, referee Robert Hartmann did not award a penalty.

However, he could have decided to be sent off a short time later when junior Dina Ebimbe came too late against Marvin Ducksch. The Frankfurt player already had a yellow card, but got away with it again. SGE trainer Dino Toppmöller reacted and replaced him immediately. He was replaced by Jean-Mattéo Bahoya, who seven minutes later was far too impetuous and caused a free kick in the half field. Ducksch then brought the ball inside, Jens Stage initially failed with his direct shot because of the strong SGE captain Kevin Trapp. Milos Veljkovic put the rebound into Frankfurt's net - giving Bremen the lead (62').
Bahoya, Stage and referee Hartmann were again in the main roles: The Bremen man knocked over the Frankfurt joker, the referee initially decided on yellow. But he looked at the scene again and then decided: Red for Stage - a right decision (74th). And the hosts took advantage of their advantage just three minutes later. Half-court cross from Willian Pacho, Tuta rose highest at the far post and nodded in - equalizer.

Tuta then provided the final exclamation point. According to video evidence, he also received a red card after initially seeing yellow (and therefore yellow-red). His attack against Felix Agu was fierce, red was also correct here - as with Stage. No team was able to hit the lucky punch in nine minutes of injury time.

What do the protagonists say about the game? The DAZN voices about the encounter in the summary.
Dino Toppmöller (coach Eintracht Frankfurt) after the game on DAZN about ...
...the game:
“The result is not satisfactory because we had a lot planned for today. You saw that from the start. We had good energy on the pitch, the boys put in a lot of effort and we had a lot of shots. In the end there is not enough efficiency to take the lead. Shortly after half-time we had to get a clear penalty for the foul on Robin, but that's just the way it is. Then we go behind through a set piece and then come back well. We put a lot of effort into it, but in the end, if it’s only 1:1 in quotes, it’s not satisfactory.”
... the efficiency in front of the goal:
“We had a lot of crosses and a lot of shots, but in the end we were perhaps too hectic in our final reaction. That's how it is and we have to accept it. The boys did really well in terms of commitment, but we also want to reward ourselves with three points. We played a lot of draws and we want to win sometimes.”
... the goal conceded:
“The first thing that annoys me is the completely unnecessary foul. We know that Ducksch plays the ball in very well and we just run into the opponent's heels. There was no need to make a foul. He hits the standard well, Trappo saves the first one and they put the follow-up shot in.”
... Nnamdi Collins’ Bundesliga debut:
“He did very well. He was very present in the duels and ran off a lot of balls. That was pretty decent for his Bundesliga debut. Of course we would have liked a better result.”
... the referee decisions in the second half:
“At the beginning it was a clear penalty in the 49th minute, then Junior could be sent off. That's a yellow card, we don't need to discuss it. But who knows how things will go if we take the lead. The two red cards are undisputed. Especially at Werder, this action is crazy.”

Mario Götze (Eintracht Frankfurt) after the game on DAZN about ...
... the encounter:
“It doesn’t really help anyone, especially with our second home game in a row. We really wanted to get three points and we didn't manage to do that. We conceded an annoying goal and in the end we score our goal. We are always dangerous in the second half, especially when we use the space well. We have to be more consistent and it’s always kind of stupid when you’re behind.”
... the penalty situation with Robin Koch and Amos Pieper:
“We have often had a penalty against us in situations like this. You can definitely give him that because he is also the player who gets the ball. Painful topic.”
... the end of the season:
“In the end we have to watch every game again. We had two home games and got two points, which is of course not satisfactory. But we also know how good we are away from home and how well we can play. We have already scored points against opponents who are above us, so anything is still possible. Nevertheless, we have to do our work, focus on ourselves and then there are still six games that will be very important.”
Kevin Trapp (goalkeeper and captain Eintracht Frankfurt) after the game on DAZN about...
... the goal conceded:
“A goal against never feels good, especially after a set piece. Unfortunately, we talk about it more often. I don't even know why, because we didn't feel like we had these problems in the first half of the season and suddenly we have to talk about conceding a set-piece goal every weekend. It's difficult and incredibly annoying because, in quotes, we played a good game. When Bremen takes the lead like that, it's hard for me to describe it. We know that Ducksch takes dangerous free kicks, but if they get to shoot twice, it’s one time too many.”
... the question of whether Eintracht deserved to win:
“If you only get two points at home against Union and Bremen, then there are reasons for that. I do think we had a chance to take the lead and win the game. Bremen also had chances to score goals, but it's not like that. Maybe it's deserved in the end. It's very annoying because there is too little in the two games. We could have made giant steps. So it’s very hard to digest.”
... the question of whether Europe is in danger:
“We are not closing our eyes to what is happening and what we need to do better. The rest of the program is brutal, that's true. But there's no point in talking about the rest of the program, we have to play the games first. It is still beatable. We're not a team that goes there and becomes cannon fodder. We are still a team capable of winning against these teams. We have everything in our own hands. We are sixth in the table and are six points ahead as of today, but somehow there is a very negative cloud hanging over us. In some cases we were rightly criticized because the games weren't pretty and the results weren't there. For me it's hard to grasp. The good thing is that we have it in our own hands.”
Marvin Ducksch (SV Werder Bremen) after the game on DAZN about ...
... the controversial scenes:
“When we conceded a goal, it looked to me as if he was pushed and then couldn't get up there. Everything looks fast and different in the game, but it's exactly the contact where it goes up. You can argue about it, but for me it's a clear yellow-red card after half-time. I don’t know why they don’t show yellow and red.”
... the game:
“We didn't want this exchange of blows, but at some point it turned into that. We knew there was a lot of speed coming our way and we defended it as best as we could.”
... the question of whether the point gain was positive:
“Absolutely. If you look at the whole game, we have to take the lead, but we're also happy that we're not behind. We then take the lead, get the red card and the whole game ends. We tried everything to defend at the back and in the end we took the point.”
... his position:
“There was a new strike partner again and it was always a slightly different game, but we analyze the opponents well. You could see in the first half that the spaces were there, but we didn't use them properly. Unfortunately we didn’t get there, otherwise the plan would probably have worked.”
Milos Veljkovic (scorer SV Werder Bremen) after the game on DAZN about ...
... the division of points:
"It's an important point, but when you're leading 1-0, you want to take the win and unfortunately we couldn't do that."
... his goal:
“I was a bit surprised, but I tried to keep the ball down and put it on goal. I managed that well.”
... the goal conceded:
“In that situation I thought that I had been fouled, but even if it wasn't a foul, you can take the time and look at the situation again because maybe it wasn't a clear decision. When you're on top, any little push or push is enough. In hindsight, it’s too late anyway.”
... the injured and suspended players:
“We have shown throughout the season that when players were injured or suspended, we have a good squad with players who can come in. Of course it looks a little bad now because we don't get the results, but we have to stick with it, play our football, continue to defend compactly and be a little braver with the ball."
