Frankfurt Defeats Dortmund 2-0 Amid Transfer Talks

Eintracht Frankfurt secured a 2-0 victory over Borussia Dortmund, marking their third consecutive win and pushing Dortmund to their third straight defeat in the Bundesliga. The match featured an early goal from Hugo Ekitike, followed by a late insurance goal from Oscar Hojlund in stoppage time. Despite dominating possession with 63%, Dortmund struggled to create clear chances and failed to convert opportunities, including a shot that hit the post. The game was shadowed by the impending transfer of Frankfurt's top scorer, Omar Marmoush, to Manchester City, who was left out of the squad ahead of negotiations. Frankfurt's win keeps them in third place, closely chasing Bayer Leverkusen, while Dortmund languishes in 10th, raising questions about coach Nuri Sahin's future. Dortmund's sporting director reiterated support for Sahin amid the team's disappointing performance this season.
