This is how it started: The Frankfurt fans show a huge Maria vom Main as choreography.
First incident: Eintracht captain Sebastian Rode is hit in the head by a Scottish stud. He is bleeding profusely – but can continue playing.
First setback: Joe Aribo beats Kevin Trapp to make it 1-0 for Rangers.
He brings Frankfurt back into play: Rafael Borré scores twelve minutes after Aribo – of course after a Kostic cross.
The scene of the extension: Kevin Trapp saves against Ryan Kent and secures the Eintracht extension and thus the pot.
The second save: Trapp saves Aaron Ramsey’s penalty and as…
… Rafael Borré chases the last attempt into the left kink, there is no stopping him.
Christopher Lenz, who sunk the first penalty, is the first player at Borré, Ansgar Knauff hearts him as second.
Suffers: Ramsey, who missed the penalty, can hardly miss the Europa League trophy.
Which finally lifts Captain Sebastian Rode into the night sky of Seville.
Architect of success, although he has only been a coach since this year and had a difficult start to the season with Eintracht: Oliver Glasner.
Before the game, he expressed the desire to “drink out of the cup” during the night and fulfilled it: Eintracht President Peter Fischer.
50,000 fans also celebrated Eintracht’s victory at the public viewing in the home stadium in the city forest.
In Seville, Timothy Chandler briefly presented the trophy to the fans who had traveled with him.
Until everyone lined up for the official final picture.
