Eintracht Frankfurt secured their place in the Bundesliga's top four with a crucial victory over Borussia Mönchengladbach at the Allianz Arena on Saturday evening.
The match was a closely contested affair from start to finish, but Eintracht Frankfurt emerged victorious thanks to a late goal from striker Nikolaos Kostić.
Kostić, who has been playing for Eintracht since joining from Ajax in 2019, struck the winning goal just before full-time. His effort saw him score his second league goal of the season and move his tally to seven goals this campaign.
The win was significant for Eintracht Frankfurt as they climbed up the table to third position, one point behind leaders Bayern Munich. It also moved them within two points of fourth-placed Dortmund, who have won their last three matches.
Borussia Mönchengladbach, meanwhile, suffered their first defeat of the season, dropping down to fifth position. They will now need to bounce back quickly if they hope to remain competitive in the Bundesliga.
The result was a boost for Eintracht Frankfurt's confidence, which had been shaken by their poor form earlier in the season. The club have now won six out of their last eight matches, including a home win against RB Leipzig.
Overall, it was another solid performance from Eintracht Frankfurt, who showed resilience and determination throughout the match. They will now look forward to facing a tough challenge in their next game against Wolfsburg on Wednesday night.
