VfB continue winning streak

By: 21 | April 25th, 2009

Markus Babbel’s VfB won their fifth successive match, continuing their stunning run of play in the Rückrunde, defeating Frankfurt 2-0 at the Neckarstadion. The victory squares VfB with Bayern on points and leaves the upcoming match against Wolfsburg as a possible decider of the championship.

Inspired to limit VfB’s attack, Frankfurt showed an impressive stubborn side defending and until Martin Lanig’s effort at the half hour there were no significant attacking threats. However with twelve minutes remaining in the half Ludovic Magnin cross was flicked on by Cacau, who had slipped under Marco Russ, to the near post giving VfB the 1-0 lead. Die Schwaben doubled the margin three minutes into the new half as Lanig’s free-kick from the left landed a Mario Gómez feet with striker sending it in to make it 2-0. Any chance of Frankfurt coming back ended with that goal and the match waned on without further scoring.
