Eintracht have maintained the record for not loosing to Spanish opposition since 1960 European cup final against Real Madrid.

Well, to be fair, they haven't had too many chances to play against Spanish teams in official tournaments since then Cheesy

Impressive win from their side regardless. This game made their entire year, being rather without success in this year's Bundesliga season. Would they qualify for the Europa League again in case they win the title? This could be there only hope playing internationally next year then...

Barcelona shamefully lost a home game to Eintracht! Congratulations to all those who bet on Eintracht to win... You managed to earn easy x10 without losing your nerves! Cheesy

Another surprise from Barcelona for their fans... They have screwed up all the championships this year - at home, in the Champions League, now in the Europa League, when almost everyone was sure they would be champions...

betting on Eintracht when the game has not started I don't think it's the choice of those who place the bet. now Eintracht is in 9th position in the Bundesliga. and managed to beat Barca. even Barca only scored 2 goals at the end of the game.
Barca's possession as usual was excellent. but their midfield didn't manage to create a gap in the Eintracht defense well. Eintracht did very well, although I had to lose this bet too.

Wow. Droves of Frankfurt fan attend shock win over Barca.
Eintracht have maintained the record for not loosing to Spanish opposition since 1960 European cup final against Real Madrid.
Their semi final match will be West Ham

Yes, I agree that betting on Eintracht before the game was crazy, but there were still those who did, and they got lucky! Betting often depends not only on knowledge but also on luck... Wink

But even judging by the game stats, Eintracht took more shots than Barcelona with minimal ball possession, suggesting better tactics...

How are the mighty fallen, barca put up a late fight, but all result was jst a consolation to the home fans.Considering how Barca ended last season and started out this season, I think they have done well for themselves, there is an improvement, just that their tactics didn't work against frankfurter, Frankfurt were playing as if they were at home, the presence of their supporters in the stadium was amazing, huge numbers of their supporters were presence

the large number of Frankfurt fans who were present at the Camp Nou stadium may have been a reason for them to win, and it was very controversial where the organizers only provided 5000 tickets for Frankfurt supporters but in fact 30,000 Frankfurt fans were present, rumors said that Barcelona fans had betrayed by selling tickets at a price which is more expensive for Frankfurt supporters, causing a large number of Frankfurt supporters to attend the stadium.

Frankfurt played very confidently after they managed to take the lead in the 4th minute through the penalty point, and their defense was so strong that it was very difficult for the Barcelona players to penetrate, it was evident from the many ballposition mastery Barcelona was only able to make 4 Shots on target and that was more fewer than Frankfurt who managed to make 7 Shots on target.

it's a surprise, no one expected it but that's football.
btw I'm sure not many people are willing to bet on Frankfurt's win before the game starts.

I heard the news a few hours ago. Regarding Frankfurt fans who attended in excess of the capacity provided for Frankfurt fans. From the news, if I'm not mistaken a few days before the match tickets were sold out at a high price to give to Frankfurt fans.
Regardless of it all for Barcelona, it is considered a shame because at home. Regarding the match as we saw the result that the revenge attack from Barcelona was only active at the end so if the Barcelona players did that early in the match maybe the result would not be disappointing enough.

We all were busy with barcelona game yesterday and we forgot about west ham excelent result a flawless victory 3 0 against lyon in an away game they are on fire i think they will make it to the final to meet leipzig those are my expections.

The Barcelona game was the obvious talk of the day though.
For the next round (semi-final) the pairings are:
West Ham vs Frankfurt. Odds for qualification are 1.6/2.2, so West Ham has an advantage, though it is not so clear as one would have thought. This is like a 60%/40% relation.
Leipzig vs Glasgow Rangers with odds 1.25/3.25 which is more like 75%/25%, so Leipzig is a clear favorite here.

I think we will see again pretty open games. By now anything is possible anyway and with Barcelona eliminated also the cup is up for grabs for any of the remaining teams.

It was a very unexpected semi-final and in fact, at the moment I barely have a solid choice of which team deserves the final. West Ham are really strong here too But West Ham will be up against a team that has a big surprise, because the opponent that West Ham have to face in this semifinal is Eintracht Frankfurt who managed to beat Barcelona at Camp Nou. It's a great achievement Frankfurt made but even so, Frankfurt still won't guarantee to win because West Ham here for me is very strong. Likewise with Rangers, I think with two legs anything can change in the second leg although indeed, it looks like on paper Leipzig will win but I personally feel this season they are difficult to predict.

after Frankfurt managed to get rid of Barcelona at this time it will be difficult to predict who will be the champion, among the remaining teams I think all of them still have a chance to become champions because all these teams have almost equal quality. It's hard to say who will play in the final.
West Ham are very strong they have played consistently in the last few games, as well as Leipzig who are currently in their best form after they started the season slightly poorly, and Frankfurt they are certainly very confident after their win over Barcelona. as well as Rangers.
I think it will be very interesting because all of them are of the same quality with the same possibility of winning the Europa League this season.

FC Barcelona - Eintracht Frankfurt Grin

this was a pathetic result for barcelona, but it was already an expected result, and it's not because Eintracht Frankfurt is a strong team, in fact Eintracht Frankfurt are a weak team that in the next phase will just be a team in which whoever calls to play against them he was just lucky because he will win. Barcelona's defeat has to do with the problem in defense, they had already conceded 2 goals against Levante, and note that Levante is in the relegation zone, so it was already foreseeable that Barcelona would concede many goals, I canceled my bet immediately that I realized this.

I agree that this was a very disappointing and even embarrassing performance of Barcelona and i also think that they really would have needed those few extra million euros that they would have gotten if they were able to reach the semi finals or even the finals of the Europa League. Barcelona is nearly bankrupt after all with debts of 1,3 Billion €.
I disagree though that Frankfurt is a weak team. It seems to me that you have not really seen any games of Frankfurt in the European competitions in the last years. In 2019 they also reached the semi final of the Europa League and then they were absolutely on the same level with their opponent Chelsea and only lost after the penalty shootout. Frankfurt has the ability to beat every one of those other clubs that are remaining in the competition now.

Btw, is it true that Barcelona played at Camp Nou last night? ;
Because I see it seems almost 90% of the Nou Camp stadium is dominated by frankfurt fans, what's wrong with Barcelona?

That is an issue that is being discussed because actually there were some really crazy things that the Barcelona fan base did in that game as it was known to sell tickets to Frankfurt fans for 2 to 5 times more expensive. Based on some news that I read, Barcelona ticket management also made a mistake where they did not limit the opposing fans in this match which in the end almost 30K Frankfurt fans filled the stadium.

In effect, Frankfurt seem to be playing at home without much pressure even though they actually argue that it is a rare opportunity that they should get even when tickets are 5 times more expensive than Barcelona supporters. Xavi and several Barcelona players have questioned this, but Laporta has clarified everything that it was a fatal mistake that resulted in his team losing.

Frankfurt's coach knows Barcelona's defense is weak. They made good use of the opportunity. de Jong doesn't seem completely fit. His performance was not good. Aubameyang's performance was very disappointing. We expect better performances from experienced players like him. He missed some easy opportunities. However, their performance is much more stable now than the way Barcelona started this season. As a Barca fan, I am happy to see Barcelona's stable perforamance. Hopefully they will play better next season.

I think it's true, some players didn't perform as expected. Pedri had to be substituted early in the second half, the usually good Aubameyang and Ferran didn't seem very excited last night during the game and this happens to almost all Barcelona players in my opinion.

Xavi's strategy was easy for Frankfurt to read, it was a failure that really disappointed me as a fan. The Frankfurt players took every chance to make a shot, it worked out to be 2 goals and they were lucky with that. As you said, the title target this season has finally failed and yes we can hope for it next season.

I didn't expect that Barcelona, which was previously superior because they played at Camp Nou, couldn't actually give the best performance like in the previous matches, the penalty goal that occurred at the beginning of the game seemed to make the Barcelona players very down and seemed to lose their enthusiasm in playing, but I applaud Frankfurt skuad yesterday because even though they had won on aggregate they did not relax their attacks and instead put pressure on the Barcelona defense throughout the game, even though Barcelona managed to score 2 reply goals in the last minute but it was too late for them to catch up.

Btw, is it true that Barcelona played at Camp Nou last night? Grin

Yes it was quite pathetic to be honest for Barcelona to play this bad and how they just couldn't stop Frankfurt. Barcelona couldn't stop Frankfurt to have so many chances to score and they scored three of them.
Frankfurt is a team that plays 3-4-2-1 or similar systems. They usually don't break the 3 defenses at all. Kostic is also a football player who plays to the left of the four in front of the defender, who has an excellent offensive side but not a bad defensive side. He's not exactly a full-back, but he evolved from a left winger to an attacking winger over time. There was Victor Moses, he played fullback for Chelsea, I think they have similar styles. Barça were not the better team against this Frankfurt and just finished a terrible season for them this year. I expect Frankfurt to go finals probably. I quite like their style.

Eintracht Frankfurt now in the semifinals of the Europa League and Kostic is the man of the match for me. he game will be talked about again and again in the coming years. The first game in the semifinals is already this month, on 28 April and the second match on 05 May. And it looks like there could be a German final. Leipzig against Frankfurt in Sevilla.

Further more with Barcelona out, I will be supporting West Ham next.
They have come this far and Moyes had this experience a long time.
I'm tipping them for lifting the Europa league competition.

With Barcelona now out of the way now everyone can win it and i honestly dont know who can take it in the end. West Ham had an easy job against Lyon that is really in bad form. Frankfurt showed they are serious for the title by o most destroying Barcelona in Spain so i cant wait for next round

With the elimination of Barcelona from the Europa League competition, I think it's increasingly difficult to predict which team will win
the Europa League trophy. Because the 4 teams that qualify for the semifinals have almost the same strength. According to my prediction,
West Ham or Leipzig are most likely to win the Europa League trophy. But seeing the performance of Frankfurt which played very well
against Barcelona, either in the first leg or in the second leg Frankfurt managed to prevent Barcelona from winning. This makes me think again,
it seems Frankfurt deserves to be taken into account to be the winner of the Europa League trophy. Maybe we can find out the answer
in the semi-final first leg, the results of the first leg match can be an illustration for all of us, which team deserves to be the winner of
the Europa League.

I had the feeling that Barca will face opposition in their climb to the Europa league final but I never expected it to be in the form of Frankfurt. Understandably, these guys are good, but I felt the goal diff will be at least two! Imagine Xavi being served such a humiliating breakfast. Too bad that their journey had to end last night because I was also rooting for them tho but let's see how west Ham because they have much promise.

Barcelona and the fans deserve to be deeply disappointed, the match did not go as expected. Frankfurt know the most effective way to stop Barcelona and they did it perfectly. Even after they made it to the semifinals, no one really believed they could win the title.
