Eintracht Frankfurt – the shape of the team and its analysis: the plan is not working at the end of the season
“The Eagles” have generally remained at the same level under the leadership of Toppmöller, who replaced Glasner last summer. They were clearly behind the top 5 of the current Bundesliga, but seemed to be firmly in 6th position. The statistics in the second half of spring were not encouraging; the team lost down to a 1-5 score at the home arena. It is reasonable to mention that the opponents were Stuttgart, Bayern and Bayer. A simpler opponent, Augsburg, was defeated with a 3-1 result. As for the game in Mönchengladbach, it was limited to a 1-1 draw, so there is a risk of eventually losing the position to Hoffenheim.
RB Leipzig – the shape of the team and its analysis: the club started to finish the season
“The Bulls”, after being eliminated from the Champions League (losing to Real Madrid in the 1/8 finals: there happened a draw in Madrid after a 0-1 failure on the native field) focused on the fight with Borussia Dortmund for 4th place in the Bundesliga. And it managed to overtake “the Bumblebees”, and then, due to the victory in the head-to-head duel, break away from them. Still, it had already turned out that UEFA would allow a fifth German team into the Champions League due to the new regulations by that time, so the dispute lost a considerable part of its tournament relevance. As a result, Marco Rose’s wards, after four victories in a row, did not beat Hoffenheim, and then limited themselves to a 1-1 draw in the confrontation with Werder Bremen.
