After finishing runner-up in the previous season and the many high-profile departures during the summer break, VfB continues to have problems – and also bad luck against Eintracht.
Stuttgart’s race to catch up is not rewarded
Top scorer Marmoush, smart transfers and the right conclusions from last season: There are many reasons for Frankfurt’s strong start to the season. Where can this lead unity?Oct 17, 2024 | 14:20 minutes
VfB’s (too) late goals were scored by Josha Vagnoman (86th) and Nick Woltemade (90th) shortly before the end. According to the video images, another goal was not scored in the long injury time. Relief for Frankfurt’s Kevin Trapp, who still seemed dissatisfied after the game.
It’s not possible for us to stop playing football after the 3-0 win.

Trapp saves a penalty
Stuttgart started the game better. First Chris Führich was denied by Trapp (10th), shortly afterwards Demirovic headed the ball onto the crossbar (18th). But VfB had an even more promising opportunity when Hugo Larsson fouled his opponent Angelo Stiller in the penalty area.

After assistant Bastian Dankert checked the video images, referee Felix Zwayer’s decision stood. But it’s just not supposed to be that point this season. Demirovic’s miss was the fourth penalty missed this season.
Marmoush continues to be in top form
And so Frankfurt took the lead before the break. The once again outstanding Marmoush found his strike partner Ekitiké with a corner, who made it 1-0. Even before the game, the two attackers had equaled a club record set by Anthony Yeboah and Uwe Bein with 14 goals this season after nine match days.
After the break, the action mostly took place between the two penalty areas. It was only after Ansgar Knauff started that things became dangerous again – and how: The 22-year-old served Brown, who had no trouble raising. A short time later, Omar Marmoush showed his class.

Tight final phase
In the end, the Hessians had to tremble once again: Josha Vagnoman (86th) and Nick Woltemade (90th) brought Stuttgart closer again in a crazy final phase. Chris Führich even celebrated the supposed 3:3 (90th + 7), but was offside when he scored.
