Frankfurt secured all three points against Marseille on Wednesday night, which means their game against Sporting next week is for a spot in the Champions League knockout round.

Speaking with DAZN following the game, Kevin Trapp acknowledged the nervy second period: "It was also exhausting for me, although I don't have to walk that much."
Reminiscing upon their Europa League triumph last season, Trapp added, "We can do finals. This will certainly be a very intense game."
A win against Sporting will earn Frankfurt an unbelievable berth into the round of 16. They must be careful, as Marseille could swoop in with a victory if Oliver Glasner's side draw.
This would take Frankfurt completely out of Europe altogether.
