Is today Albert Riera’s last time on the bench as Eintracht Frankfurt coach? After 45 minutes in Dortmund, that no longer seems out of the question.
Despite Eintracht taking the lead after just 90 seconds, the team from Hesse went into halftime trailing 1-2. BVB needed only four minutes to break down the visitors’ defense.
First, Serhou Guirassy equalized after being set up by Ryerson (42'). Then Nico Schlotterbeck converted a pass from Maximilian Beier from close range into the Frankfurt net (45+1). Two goals conceded too many for Riera?
If the team from Hesse lose tonight, they would not only be facing a third defeat in four matches, but also the prospect of a following season without European competition. Even before the match, German media reports said it could not be ruled out that Riera might leave before the end of the season if another defeat followed. Is this it now for the 44-year-old?
In 45 minutes, we may already know more.
