But from the beginning: Kristensen injured his right thigh in the eighth minute. Nathaniel Brown came on for him.

Alejandro Grimaldo scored the subsequent free kick for Werkself. Michael Zetterer was unlucky as the ball bounced off the post and hit his neck, as shown by the TV images. According to 'Sky', it was the 100th Bundesliga goal the keeper conceded in his career.

From Frankfurt's point of view, it is to be hoped that they can quickly recover from the double setback.

But there was also an early change at Leverkusen: Exequiel Palacios had to go out injured, Aleix Garcia came on for him.

After the penalty goal by Patrik Schick, Can Uzun (52.) at least reduced the score to 2:1, but in the end, SGE still left empty-handed. The Hessen team ultimately lost 3:1 in Leverkusen.
