53. Minute: The Egyptian is standing again. Apparently he has pain in his hand. Eintracht initially continues to play outnumbered.

27. Minute: First corner for HJK. Suddenly objects fly out of the guest block and hit the Finnish player. This will have repercussions for Eintracht Frankfurt.

25. Minute: The statistics speak for themselves. SGE’s eight shots on goal are compared to only one from Helsinki.

23. Minute: After a long time, the Finns attack again, a cross pass rushes through the entire penalty area, but finds no taker.

20. Minute: Eintracht is getting closer and closer to the first goal. This seems to be only a matter of time. Helsinki is extremely defensive and hedges around its own penalty area.

15. Minute: Buta plays a one-two with Mario Götze in the penalty area, but then doesn’t get to the ball quickly enough. Helsinki keeper Mäenpää grabs the ball.

11. Minute: Eintracht Frankfurt is increasingly taking control of the game and is pinning the hosts in their half. Things are looking strong so far, as shown by head coach Dino Toppmöller’s team here.

First report: Helsinki/Frankfurt – Eintracht Frankfurt wants to get their second win in the second game of the Conference League against HJK Helsinki and thus get one step closer to the knockout phase. The SGE is the big favorite in the duel with the Finns, but should not underestimate the team from Scandinavia – despite the clear first leg.

“I expect us to approach the task with the same concentration as in the past few weeks, ignore the first leg and treat the opponent with maximum respect. Then it’s fire free for the game,” said Eintracht head coach Dino Toppmöller at the press conference before the game against HJK Helsinki.

“It won’t be a sure-fire success in Helsinki. Last year, AS Roma narrowly won 2-1 here. They’re not easy to beat at home. For that reason alone we have to be on our guard. We’re aiming for first place, so we have to take the next step and take the opponent seriously,” continued the SGE coach, who has to do without Tuta and Koch and could surprise the line-up.

The game in Helsinki will take place on artificial turf. “We will get an idea of ​​the artificial turf pitch during the final training session and would like to get used to the conditions as quickly as possible. We showed that we can play short passes and long balls behind the chain in tight spaces. In the end, the boys have to develop a feeling for themselves during the game as to what the better means is. We’re not changing our approach because we always demand all the elements anyway,” explained Toppmöller.

Midfielder Ansgar Knauff doesn’t mind that the game against HJK is on an artificial turf pitch: “It’s important to have the final training here so we can get used to the circumstances. You just have to accept the conditions. It doesn’t matter where or who we compete against.”

Jessic Ngankam is not there. Dino Toppmöller gave the reason for the striker’s absence: “We had extremely little training time recently and Nacho did well too. We sat down and thought it would make sense to use this week, next week and the week before the game after the international break against Stuttgart to optimize Jessic’s performance. He accepted that and completed a good session today with our athletic trainer Markus Murrer as well as Lucas Alario and Philipp Max in Frankfurt.” (smr)
