Overview

• Union won 4-3 in Frankfurt, driven by Oliver Burke’s hat-trick after Ilyas Ansah’s early opener.
• A VAR review in the 87th minute led referee Sven Jablonski to award Eintracht a penalty for Leopold Querfeld’s foul on Jonathan Burkardt, who converted for 3-4.
• Steffen Baumgart was cautioned for dissent and then shown a straight red for kicking a paper ball onto the field near the 89th minute.
• Broadcast images showed Baumgart briefly making a middle-finger gesture toward the pitch, which he denied in post-match interviews.
• Baumgart said he accepted the dismissal and admitted kicking the paper ball; he is expected to miss at least the HSV match, with assistant Danilo Fernando Evangelista de Souza handling touchline duties.
