Frankfurt undone as Hoffenheim score three in 13 minutes | OneFootball

After falling behind early, Frankfurt could not withstand Hoffenheim’s intensity, with the visitors firing three quick goals to seize control in a dramatic Bundesliga encounter:

The game at Deutsche Bank Park began with Frankfurt asserting early dominance, and in the 18th minute, their efforts paid off. Kalimuendo capitalized on a forward-deflecting clearance from Amenda, with Uzun chipping the ball ahead and Kalimuendo using his pace to slot it past Baumann for the opening goal.

Frankfurt looked the more purposeful side during the opening 20 minutes, but Hoffenheim began to threaten, including a dangerous free-kick after a foul by Koch just outside the box. Kramaric’s shot narrowly missed the target, keeping Frankfurt’s lead intact. The hosts also had chances, with Asllani delivering a silky cross to Burger, but the Brazilian goalkeeper Santos produced a stunning reflex to keep the ball out from close range.

Hoffenheim’s persistence paid off in the 52nd minute. A move down the left saw Burger sprint along the line and deliver a perfect cross for Moerstedt, who headed home his second Bundesliga goal to level the score at 1‑1.

From there, Frankfurt struggled to match the visitors’ intensity. Just minutes later, Hoffenheim doubled their advantage through another precise cross from Burger, this time finding Kabak, who headed the ball into the net.

Hoffenheim were unstoppable in this phase of the game. In the 65th minute, Coufal’s intended cross was deflected by Amenda and sailed over Santos into the Frankfurt net, making it 3‑1.

The visitors then showed the maturity by controlling the remainder of the game, leaving Frankfurt with no opportunity to mount a comeback. The sooner Frankfurt find a new head coach to bring stability and calmness to a nervous team, the better.

Final result: Eintracht Frankfurt 1-3 TSG Hoffenheim.
