Mainz defeats Frankfurt in the friendly: peat festival despite confidentiality!

Eintracht Frankfurt had to give up 1: 3 in the friendly against FSV Mainz 05. The game took place in the exclusion of the public, and Dominik Kohr scored the goals for the Mainz in the 21st and 55th minute as well as Phillipp Mwene in the 41st minute. Nathaniel Brown scored the only goal for Eintracht in the 56th minute.

already before Christmas, Mainz had won the same result against Frankfurt in the Bundesliga. The first goal from Kohr resulted from a mistake by Eintracht midfielder Oscar Højlund. The coach of Mainz, Bo Henriksen, changed completely at half-time, while Eintracht coach Dino Toppmöller brought nine new players in the second half of the game. In added time, Hugo Ekitiké had the opportunity to meet for Frankfurt, but only hit the post.

statements after the game

Dino Toppmöller, coach of Eintracht Frankfurt, commented on the game, which he described as very intensive and similar to a championship game. According to Toppmöller, the team did a lot of things, but efficiency in the end was a central problem because Eintracht had only scored one goal. Mainz, on the other hand, fully exploited his three shots.

The trainer also emphasized the good counterpressing moments of the first half and mentioned that the team had some promising relays to quickly go towards gate. Players like Can Uzun had good chances, but they were parried by the Mainz keeper. Toppmöller criticized the missed possibilities, especially those of Omar Marmoush, who missed a free shot. Toppmöller was optimistic that the efficiency will return at the end and emphasized that important knowledge from the test game was collected because every player had the opportunity to present themselves.

for Eintracht Frankfurt are now the discussions about the alleged change from star player Omar Marmough to Manchester City for 50 million euros. Sports director Timmo Hardung also commented on these rumors after the test game.
