Frankfurt Pile More Pressure on Struggling Dortmund with 2-0 Win

Eintracht Frankfurt continued their impressive form with a 2-0 victory over Borussia Dortmund on Friday, further deepening the visitors’ struggles. Despite the pre-match loss of in-form striker Omar Marmoush to a likely move to Manchester City, Frankfurt remained clinical in their performance.
