Ex-Benfica man witnesses a mad match at Eintracht v Borussia | OneFootball

Fábio Silva was present at the derby between Eintracht Frankfurt and Borussia Dortmund, which ended in a 3-3 draw, in a match counting for the 16th round of the Bundesliga. The former player trained at Benfica — who joined the German club last summer — came on as a substitute.

Although he started the match on the bench, the Portuguese forward was brought on and had the chance to witness, on the pitch, a true crazy duel between the two rivals, with the scoreline changing several times, including during stoppage time, to the delight of the fans.

The match started intensely, with Max Beier putting Dortmund ahead in the 10th minute. The home team's response came shortly after, in the 22nd minute, when Uzun equalized, taking the game into halftime at 1-1.

In the second half, already with Fábio Silva on the field, the former Benfica player saw his teammate Felix Nmecha restore the visitors' lead in the 68th minute. However, Frankfurt equalized again, thanks to a precise shot from Ebnoutalib. In stoppage time, Dahoud completed the comeback for the hosts, but Dortmund avoided defeat by leveling the score once more through Chukwuemeka.

Thus, both teams earned just one point after a thrilling encounter. After 16 rounds of the Bundesliga, Borussia Dortmund sits in second place with 33 points, but could still see Bayern Munich pull away at the top. Eintracht Frankfurt, meanwhile, is in seventh place with 26 points.
