Eintracht Frankfurt: Randal Kolo Muani draws attention to himself hessenschau.de
After the debacle against FC Bayern Munich, there were few positive approaches at Eintracht Frankfurt. After all: Newcomer Randal Kolo Muani annoyed goalkeeper Manuel Neuer and indicated what he was made of.
Randal Kolo Muani needed around 20 minutes to show the fans of Eintracht Frankfurt what he was made of. Manuel Neuer, FC Bayern Munich’s highly decorated goalkeeper, went wide of his goal in the opening game on Friday evening and wanted to build up the game as casually as usual. But Kolo Muani smelled the rat, coaxed the leather from him and pushed into the empty goal with concentration.
Kolo Muani makes Upamecano sweat
Of course, it was just the consolation goal for the hopelessly inferior Eintracht. But that was secondary for the 23-year-old Frenchman, who came on a free transfer from FC Nantes. Kolo Muani pointed to promising approaches after coming on. That’s not so easy when the opponent is already leading 5:0.
But the previously largely unemployed defense of FC Bayern at least got a little sweaty. Dayot Upamecano, one of the fastest players in the Bundesliga, had to step up two or three times. Kolo Muani was the fourth fastest actor on the field with a top speed of 33.49 km/h.
