Berlin, June 4 (Ians) Second-half goals from Christopher Nkunku and Dominik Szaboszlai helped Leipzig defend the German Cup title after seeing off Eintracht Frankfurt 2-0 in the final.
Titleholders Leipzig caught a bright start at sold-out Berlin Olympia stadium and came close with only four minutes played when Timo Werner’s shot from 13 meters tested Frankfurt goalkeeper Kevin Trapp on Saturday night.
The Eagles needed some time to gain a foothold into the encounter and produced their first clear-cut opportunity in the 17th minute as Kolo Muani rattled the side netting from a tight angle following a fast break.
Frankfurt increased the pressure, but it was Leipzig, who posed more danger in front of the target as Konrad Laimer teed up for Nkunku, whose low shot went just wide in the 42nd minute.
Oliver Glasner’s boys piled on the pressure after the restart but couldn’t do damage to Leipzig’s well-organized defence,...

Berlin (German), Feb 20 (Ians) Roles seem clearly defined when underdogs Eintracht Frankfurt cross swords with Europe’s team of the hour, Napoli.
How to prepare for a side sweeping all comers in Italy’s Serie A is one of the most pressing questions Frankfurt have to ponder before the first leg of their last-16 duel in the UEFA Champions League.
Six wins from six against Ajax, Rangers and Liverpool in the group stage and a 20-4 goal difference tell their own story in favour of the Italians, reports Xinhua.
Amid all the mind games, Frankfurt’s optimism to again beat one of football’s famous names after last season’s success against Barcelona in the Europa League seems to rest on the shoulders of a man who survived an unprecedented crash landing.
Mario Gotze has not only developed into Frankfurt’s source of inspiration but has delivered one of football’s most breathtaking stories.

Berlin, Jan 29 (Ians) Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich drop points for the third straight time in 2023 after Eintracht Frankfurt’s Randal Kolo Muani canceled out Leroy Sane’s opener to ensure a 1-1 draw in the 18th round.
Both sides started offensively minded into the clash and exchanged attacks from the opening whistle, as Kolo Muani pulled wide from a promising position in the 12th minute before Thomas Muller and Joshua Kimmich tested Frankfurt goalkeeper Kevin Trapp in quick succession at the half-hour mark, reports Xinhua news agency.
Muller remained in the thick of things as the German veteran set up for Sane, who made no mistake and slotted home with a low shot from inside the box in the 34th minute.
Frankfurt couldn’t respond before the break whereas Bayern wasted two presentable chances of extending their lead through Dayot Upamecano and Sane.
