Exclusively for Malay Mail readers: Use codeFRANKFURT, Jan 18 — Eintracht Frankfurt overcame the imminent departure of in-form Omar Marmoush to beat Borussia Dortmund 2-0 at home yesterday, heaping more misery on the slumping visitors.
In stoppage time, Oscar Hojlund took advantage of a Dortmund mistake in midfield, winning possession and running 40 metres to slide the ball past a helpless Gregor Kobel.“An incredible player, a great character. It’s always a shame when a player leaves, but the team did well against Dortmund today.” Dortmund midfielder Pascal Gross said: “It’s a results sport and at the end of the day, we couldn’t get a result. It’s extremely difficult.”
Despite their poor recent form, the visitors started strong, Serhou Guirassy heading a lofted Julian Ryerson cross against the post eight minutes in. As they have done for much of the season, Dortmund dominated possession but were unable to break through, with the hosts holding firm.
