Frankfurt 4-5 Stuttgart: Craziest match this season with 9 goals, 8 yellow cards and three comebacks

Stuttgart’s Christian Gentner celebrates his team's fifth goal with team mates during their match against Eintracht Frankfurt at Commerzbank-Arena on October 25, 2014 in Frankfurt am Main, Germany.

Vfc Stuttgart scored two late goals to register their second win this season against Eintracht Frankfurt in a tight 5-4 encounter on Saturday.

Playing at home, Frankfurt’s Alexander Madlung gave the hosts a lead in the 21st minute, but the goal was neutralized soon enough after a brace from Stuttgart’s Martin Harnik followed by another delightful strike from Christian Genter, putting Stuttgart in lead with a 1-3 scoreline.

The match, however, was far from over as Frankfurt retaliated back with full throttle, finding the net three times in the second half with goals from Alexander Meier, Stefan Aigner and Madlung who had earlier scored the first goal in the match, giving the home side the lead back yet again.

But, Stuttgart had no intention of going back home with no away points. With scores at 4-3, two late goals from Timo Werner and Christian Genter put Stuttgart back on the winning side again, handing them all the three points.
