Marmoush Shines as Frankfurt Triumphs Over Stuttgart
Eintracht Frankfurt’s Omar Marmoush continues to shine in the Bundesliga, showcasing his exceptional form with an assist and a goal in his team’s thrilling 3-2 victory over former club Stuttgart. The Egyptian international’s impressive performance has propelled him to the top of the league’s scoring charts, alongside Bayern Munich’s Harry Kane.
Marmoush’s return to Stuttgart was a memorable one, as he played a pivotal role in Frankfurt’s triumph. His venomous corner kick set up Hugo Ekitike for the opening goal just before halftime. In the second half, Marmoush doubled Frankfurt’s lead with a close-range finish, before adding a third with a stunning direct free-kick from 25 meters.
Despite Marmoush’s heroics, Stuttgart staged a late comeback attempt. Josha Vagnoman and Nick Woltemade scored in quick succession, and Chris Fuehrich appeared to have equalized in added time. However, the goal was ruled out for offside, handing Frankfurt a hard-fought victory.
Frankfurt’s win keeps them in third place in the Bundesliga standings, six points behind leaders Bayern Munich. Stuttgart, on the other hand, remains in mid-table after winning only three of their first 10 games.
In other Bundesliga action, Wolfsburg secured a crucial 3-1 away win over Heidenheim to move away from the relegation zone. Yannick Gerhardt and Bence Dardai gave Wolfsburg an early lead, while Marvin Pieringer’s second-half strike proved to be a consolation for Heidenheim. Tiago Tomas sealed the victory for Wolfsburg in the 90th minute.
Meanwhile, Hoffenheim’s Pavel Kaderabek made history by receiving the joint-fastest yellow card in Bundesliga history during his team’s 0-0 draw with Augsburg. Kaderabek was booked after just eight seconds for a high elbow, equaling a record previously held by Florian Niederlechner. The early yellow card overshadowed an otherwise forgettable game, as both teams failed to find the back of the net.
