Samuele Inácio and Nico Schlotterbeck fire BVB to victory in an emotional farewell night
Borussia Dortmund 3-2 Eintracht Frankfurt
Goals: 0-1 Uzun 2’ (assist: Dahoud), 1-1 Guirassy 42’ (assist: Ryerson), 2-1 Schlotterbeck 45’+1 (assist: Beier), 3-1 Inácio 72' (assist: Beier), 3-2 Burkardt 87' (assist: Knauff)
Matchday 33 at Signal Iduna Park carried a heavy emotional charge before a ball had even been kicked. Three Borussia Dortmund stalwarts — Brandt, Süle and Özcan — were given a farewell by the club's faithful in their final home match.
Brandt, who was handed the captain's armband by head coach Niko Kovač for the occasion, was making his 306th competitive appearance for the club. Süle, meanwhile, had announced his retirement earlier in the week. For Eintracht Frankfurt, the stakes were equally high: a win was needed to keep alive their hopes of European qualification, with Freiburg having leapfrogged them into seventh place.
