And you shouldn’t arrive late to see the first goal of the game. From the outset, the Swabians got off to a flying start by opening the scoring through Deniz Undav (0-1, 1st), on a serve from French international Espoirs Enzo Millot.

Replacing VfB’s serial scorer, Serhou Guirassy, the German striker scored twice for his fourth start of the season in added time of the first act (0-2, 45th+2) after VAR intervention. In the meantime, the SGE tried to react but Ansgar Knauff was unable to take advantage of an opposing defensive error to shake the nets (13th). It was ultimately a twist of fate that Dino Toppmöller’s men equalized, Waldemar Anton heading past his own goalkeeper (1-2, 26th). With their backs against the wall in the second half, the Eagles were unable to turn the match around, breaking their 15-game unbeaten streak at Deutsche Bank Park. Stuttgart consolidates its third place while Frankfurt remains at the gates of the Top 6 and European places.
