Despite the three defeats in a row in the league, Eintracht Frankfurt came with confidence after a comprehensive success of the Europa League via Eredivisie Table-Topper's Ajax. Similarly, Bochum fascinated Bayern in the Allianz Arena last week with a breathtaking comeback victory.

Accordingly, both trainers only performed a change compared to their previous start. Dino Toppmöller replaced the Speedster Ansgar Knauff by the central midfielder Oscar Højlund, while Ivan regulation looked at Bernardo's place in the heart of Bochum's back.

Bochum has been unbeaten at home against Frankfurt since her return to Bundesliga in 2021, but the back ended 7-2 in favor of the Eagles. However, this had to be satisfied with a late start time, since Banner blocked the exit routes at the end of the away.

A similar incident against Stuttgart delayed the start time for 40 minutes in the same stadium last season. Referee Felix Zwayer had to wait a little longer before giving him the all-clear to start the game. The waiting game had a clear effect on the slow start of the game, although the hosts fulfilled better with their best chance according to Matred Bero.

Kauã Santos was back in action when Robin Koch accidentally tested him. The Hesser reacted well, but Hugo Ekikte could not achieve the goal when he was opposed to Timo Horn one -to -one. During this time, the 19-year-old Jean-Mattéo Bahoya provides a Bundesliga record for top acceleration (37.16 km/h) and defeated Heidenheim's Lirlord Conteh (36.82 km/h).

However, Bochum achieved the impetus, with Kauã Santos Bero refused again before Giorgos Masouras found the network from a clear offside position. However, there was no doubt about such a call when Rasmus Kristensen did the same at the other end.

A quick change from Frankfurt's left side shifted from Ellyes Skhiri to set up the Danish right -back. Horn saved Kristensen's first attempt, but the former defender of Leeds United achieved his second Bundesliga goal with his second shot. The goal served as a turning point for the guests when they checked the procedure for the rest of the half.

Five minutes later, SGE doubled her lead with another silky train from Bahoya up close. The Frenchman not only celebrated a record, but also celebrated his first Bundesliga goal in his fourth start. In the meantime, Bochum was with another setback when Winter injured Tom Krauss five minutes before half -time.

His replacement Dani de Wit immediately sets a pass lacquer for a shot, but Kauã Santos' rescue was not necessary due to an offside call. The Brazilian goalkeeper also contested Philipp Hofmann, although this would not have been counted for a similar reason.

Dieter Hecking continued with the same XI at the beginning of the second half, but Knauff replaced Larsson for Frankfurt. Bochum tried to start half strongly, but they were unable to achieve a meaningful chance of the goal in the first 15 minutes.

When it finally arrived, Kauã Santos, who proves to be a big replacement for the injured Kevin Trapp, played Masouras' powerful shot. The Greece national player was immediately discontinued when Bochum's top scorer Mayron Boadu returned from an injury that kept him away for a month.

The 21-year-old shooting stopper pulled an even better memory when Hofmann tried to go home from six meters. In the meantime, the Frankfurt players showed fatigue as expected, since the same XI was involved in a European game on Thursday.

However, they were very close to sealing the result when Kristensen and Knauff had perfect opportunities near a minute. Instead, Bochum withdrew one, with Hofmann Kauã Santos finally defeating Gerrit Holtmann's inviting cross.

After the game in the last ten minutes, Bochum tried to repeat her Miracle of Allianz Arena. Despite an electrical atmosphere in the stadium, the best chance of Knauff, but Horn refuses to have a single chance. The former goalkeeper of Cologne also had to remain vigilant to save Chaïbis distracted free kick.

Bochum almost grabbed a tie with a goal scramble deep in the injury, but Boadu and Moritz Broschinski did not replace the finishing touch. Frankfurt's replacement striker Michy Bathshuayi was efficient. From Knauffs Assist, the Belgian achieved a second week with the last action of the game.

The result means that Frankfurt ended her four-game winning shop to sit on points with the third-placed Mainz. In the meantime, Bochum is now five points of security, while they could be drawn to an automatic relegation location if there is a winner in the current game between cellars Holstein Kiel and Heidenheim.
