Meeting Highlights…ABOUT MATCH
We’re a good team when we show our mettle. We’ll need it, because Frankfurt are also a side that likes to get their hands dirty. It’ll be a match between two really good teams.
…LAST MATCH
We needed to talk to Dortmund. The conversation was obviously constructive. The team played very, very disciplined and smart in this wonderful stadium with the wonderful audience.
…LACK OF GOAL
We didn't score a goal. We have to win this game with these chances. But I don't want to blame the team. Because they left everything on the pitch.

Dino Toppmöller
Manager on Eintracht Frankfurt…ABOUT MATCH
We want to build on the very good first 35 minutes from the game in Brussels and try to keep it going for 90 minutes. We have to do this together as a group. During this phase we had good synchronicity in defence, good moments in transition, good moments between the lines and behind the chains. Freiburg plays very intense football and played a very good game in the Europa League on Thursday. It will be a difficult task.
…INJURY REPORT
Hugo Larsson is still injured, Robin Koch is suspended. As usual, there are minor aches and pains after a game during the week, the interval between games is relatively short. Makoto Hasebe is always a candidate for the starting eleven, and it's similar with Hrvoje Smolcic - we can bet on both. Éric Junior Dina Ebimbe had a minor injury and therefore missed the game against Bochum and was not a candidate for the starting eleven for Saint-Gilloise.
…STANDINGS
We are just concentrating on putting in a good performance. We don’t think in any “what if” scenarios. We are totally focused on the next task and what lies ahead.
