JAKARTA - Eintracht Frankfurt's smooth journey in the 2021/2022 Europa League will be tested in the final match. The test that awaits them is Rangers, the giants of the Scottish League.
The two teams meet at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan, Sevilla, Spain, on Thursday, May 19 at 02.00 WIB. Frankfurt holds an unbeaten record from the group stage to the top party.
Rangers managed by an Indonesian coach, Giovanni van Bronckhorst, beat RB Leipzig in the semifinals to secure their place in the final. Meanwhile, Frankfurt crushed the dreams of West Ham United.
The two teams got contrasting results before undergoing this final. Rangers come after beating Hearts 3-1 in a Scottish Premier League clash last weekend. Meanwhile, Frankfurt drew 2-2 with Mainz in the last game of the Bundesliga this season.
Despite playing a draw in the last league match, Frankfurt's journey in the Europa League this season was really topnotch. Not a single opponent of Die Adler has come out victorious this season since the group stage.
After being unbeaten during the group stages, Die Adler looked stunning in the knockout stages. Even Barcelona was not able to match the advantage of Oliver Glasner's team in the quarter-finals.
After ending the Blaugrana's hopes as tournament favorites, Frankfurt made a fine trip to West Ham by claiming a 2-1 win in the semi-final first leg. They then won a single goal at Deutsche Bank Park.
After sealing a 3-1 aggregate win over the Hammers, Frankfurt also turned on the chance to end their 42-year title drought in Europe. The only trophy in this competition they won in 1980.
At that time, Die Adler defeated Borussia Monchengladbach in a two-legged final. Meanwhile, Frankfurt's current format only managed to reach the semifinals before being eliminated by Chelsea who eventually became champions in 2018/2019.
Despite being successful in European competitions, Frankfurt's performance in the Bundesliga is far from good. They only finished 11th in the final standings so a win in the final in the Europa League will be the only access to the European Champions League next season.
It should come as no surprise that Frankfurt have scored in their 12 Europa League games so far this season. In addition, Spain, which is the venue for tomorrow's final, is quite friendly for the German club.
Evidently Real Betis and Barcelona were both their victims when they played away to Spain. However, Frankfurt ended the Bundesliga season with an eight-game winless streak.
Three of their wins from their last 13 matches in all tournaments have come from the Europa League. Thus, they will try to prove their spurs in Europe when they meet Rangers.
