Eintracht Frankfurt have secured their place in the German Cup semi-finals after beating Borussia Mönchengladbach 1-0 at home on Wednesday night. The win came thanks to a late winner from Serbian forward Filip Kostić, who scored with just five minutes remaining.
The match was a closely contested affair, with both sides creating chances throughout the first half but unable to break down the other's defense. However, Eintracht were able to find the back of the net in the 75th minute through a well-taken effort from Kostić.
The victory sees Eintracht advance to the quarter-finals of the competition and sets up a clash against either Union Berlin or VfL Wolfsburg. It is a significant achievement for the team, who had struggled somewhat this season, but the win has given them some much-needed momentum heading into the latter stages of the tournament.
Kostić's goal was a testament to his skill and clinical finishing, as he showed no fear in taking on defenders and delivering a powerful shot that found the top corner of the goal. His performance was a reminder of why he is considered one of Europe's most promising young talents, and his contribution will be crucial as Eintracht look to continue their success in European competitions.
Overall, it was a fantastic display of football from Eintracht Frankfurt, who have now booked their place in the German Cup semi-finals. They will need to maintain their form if they are to progress further in the competition and make a real impact in the wider European scene.
