Little did Eintracht expect that the dream of playing in the Champions League was going to be taken away by the already relegated Schalke 04. The Frankfurt team fell at the home of the worst team in the Bundesliga and may be left out of the top continental competition if Dortmund wins this Sunday to Mainz.
The side of Adi Hütter did not start well, who after a quarter of an hour was already behind on the scoreboard after a goal from veteran Klaas Jan Huntelaar, who scored after missing a penalty against Kevin Trapp.
Eintracht did not collapse, which came back through André Silva (29 ') and Obite N'Dicka (51'). However, the advantage did not last long, because a minute later Blendi Idrizi established the 2-2 (52 ').
Eintrach entered the spin, receiving two more hits in the next 12 minutes, from Florian Flick (60 ') and Matthew Hoppe (64').
André Silva gave hope to the Frankfurt side (72 '), who failed to match and fell to Schalke to practically say goodbye to the option of playing in the Champions League.
