Adi Hutter's Eintracht Frankfurt came into the game with a game plan and troubled Bayern Munich early on. With the early sending off, many teams may have been tempted to throw everything at Bayern early on in the hope of getting something out of the game quickly or leave it too late while trying to keep the opposition at bay.

Frankfurt just stuck to their gameplan and continued to trouble Bayern Munich at the back. The defending champions who were also trying to make the best of their situation by keeping the ball and creating chances left a few gaps open at the back for Frankfurt to exploit.

A tricky fixture for the visitors swung heavily in Frankfurt's favour when Kostic opened the scoring but the hosts weren't able to let up. Even after Bayern clawed a goal back, Eintracht looked like they were in control of the tie.
