Overview

• Frankfurt led 6:0 after an hour at Mönchengladbach, then conceded four following heavy rotation and what the coach called a loss of structure.
• All substitutes fell short of expectations in the match, with BILD reporting club disappointment in Elye Wahi’s cameo.
• Dino Toppmöller acknowledged on Sky that the multiple changes disrupted the team’s organization.
• Mario Götze has been working back from injuries, Hugo Larsson and Jean-Mattéo Bahoya missed the trip, and Rasmus Kristensen is expected to return soon.
