⚽UEFA Europa League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Winners: Eintracht Frankfurt!

[LUCKMCFLY]

When it comes to the finale, I think that Rangers are capable of beating Frankfurt and winning the title after. Rangers are this much close to the Europa League title for the first time. They have never reached this stage in the tournament before as far as I know. Therefore they should be benefiting from this big chance in an effective way. They are performing really strongly and they can win this too. They just need to be more aware in their defense as Frankfurt are a good attacking team.

Frankfurt is a very solid team, they have a lot of history and for now they have a fairly strong attack, so much so that it reminds me of the Brazilian teams, this means that for the Rangers they must be preparing the best strategy to face them and be able to beat them, although nothing is written in football we don't know how Frankfurt can come out, what it has the most weakness is the lack of a good defense, but I think that if they focus on the good counterattack they will be able to have more success, this type of team can give surprise when they usually give a ball and look for a header to score a goal.


For me, Frankfurt will be the defending champion and that title should be given to them, I don't see another reason why it shouldn't be called that, this is something that has to be respected, besides, everything Frankfurt did to get here is not disgraceful, it took out the best teams out there at the time.

[BALIK]

Having won the Europa League, Frankfurt can celebrate! They've played incredible football and have deserved a victory. Congratulations to the winners. The win is well-deserved especially after dropping a team like Barcelona. Though I was rooting for Rangers, I backed Frankfurt. Players are substituted when they go off on penalty kicks but end up missing them, which causes the cup to be forfeited. That is a tough blow to Ramsey.

It was a great match and I have to say it lived up to the hype that it created. I was always thinking that Frankfurt is going to win the  Europa League title this time and they did. It was a close match which was decided by the penalties and still, I have to save Frankfurt is the well-deserved winner in this match. they beat a lot of harder opponents on their way to the finals and they deserved to win the title.

What a big win for Eintrach Frankfurt, not only for being Champion, also for have a place in the next UCL because if you check the Bundesliga this year they are out of european tournaments.

Lets see if they buy a b ig star (i dont thing so).

[snipie]

here it is very nice to see how high the overall value of the starting eleven was, which brought the trophy back to frankfurt after 40 years. the whole thing also speaks for the coach Oliver Glasner who has made his players strong for the certain games in this el-season and has always pushed them

Well that prove that a coherent, balanced and well managed team could surprise bigger ones and win an European title although not having a bunch of stars.
Of course this could not be applicable in a league containing opponents with top managers and players in several teams..

[minairia3]

It is really interesting to see a team that finished their domestic league at the eleventh position becoming the champion team in the Europa League. As far as I know, it was going to be the first time if Rangers were able to win the title. But I really admired Frankfurt's great performance against them. I believe they definitely deserved to win the match. I expected a bigger performance from Rangers but they disappointed me.

Frankfurt played quite good  in that match even though the rangers looked quite domineering, but frankfurt also had a good defense and was able to stop every attack made by the rangers players, the smart and impressive game played by frankfurt could compensate for the aggressive game displayed by the rangers throughout the match, I think this season frankfurt is lucky enough to win the european league trophy even though they are in 11th place in the domestic league, so it is certain that they will be able to play in the champions league through an automatic ticket to the european league champion next season, besides this season Frankfurt is still still have one more chance to win the inter-club world champion trophy by facing this season champions league champions between madrid and liverpool later.

I think Frankfurt realized that they are not going to do well in their own League and they started to concentrate on the Europa League. it was actually really good for them to realize their opportunity in the Europa League. It was already surprising to see Frankfurt beating opponents like Barcelona and West Ham. It was at that time when I was quite confident that they might be able to take the Europa League title this time. They did not do well in their own respective League but they are the champions of the Europa League.

Frankfurt is much more dangerous for now, they already had a couple of good opportunities to score and Rangers can be very happy that this game is still 0:0. Would love to see a goal soon and then we will have an even better game on our hands.

Rooting for Rangers tonight since their win makes it easier for Croatian clubs to enter in Europe next season but does not look like their night so far.

Frankfurt really took control of the game more later and I think they deserved this title too. Rangers' getting 1-0 ahead must have made you very excited but it didn't last long. And by penalty shoot-outs, Frankfurt reached the title by a 5-4 result. I was really surprised to see Rangers performing worse than I expected. Because their journey so far was just amazing and their effort was really high. But somehow they couldn't reflect this effort on the finale also. This was going to be their first Europa League title in history if they made it.

It turns out that Eintracht has never lost during the entire Europa League season? A very cool achievement for the 11th team in Germany and considering how strong opponents they had.
By the way, it turns out that next season there will be 5 teams from the Bundesliga in the Champions League?  

Although many underestimated Eintracht Frankfurt at the start of this season, Die Adler was able to silence their critics with the title.  It must be admitted that Frankfurt's journey this season in the Europa League has been phenomenal.  Congratulations to Eintracht Frankfurt on winning their second trophy on the European stage and securing automatic qualification for the Champions League.

[dezoel]

The fact that it went to penalties shows that both teams were pretty close to each other. I wagered on 90 minutes of the game, and said Frankfurt will win, since they didn't win during that 90 minutes, I ended up losing my bet. However, it was cool to know that the team I expected to win ended up winning was a good deal.

The 11th of bundesliga managed to beat Rangers, the only reason is that Frankfurt is a different beast when they are playing in europa. They are nowhere near that level when we are talking about Bundesliga. It's going to be quite a good amount of income for them not only because they won, but they will be able to sell some of their players for a high price because of this win.

Their hard work paid off by winning the title as Champions of the Europa League. maybe the Eintracht Frankfurt trip amazed everyone because they were able to silence some of the big European Teams and I think they deserve all this. Supporters support is also very large so that their enthusiasm for playing in the final was quite consistent by turning the tables and fighting until it ended in a penalty shootout.

I did expect a 2-1  win for Frankfurt in regular time. and I expected the Rangers to start aggressively. Anyway, they did break the deadlock but Frankfurt did well to equalize. Frankfurt did not achieve too much in the Bundesliga this season and they are going to finish as a mid-table team in the Bundesliga but they have played really well in the Europa League and they are the deserving champions in my opinion.

Well this is indeed very good for them now. Regardless of what they played very well in this match.
I actually supported Ranger in this match and even though I lost my money in this game but it doesn't matter because both teams played really well and Frankfurt played really well in my opinion.
they deserve to win in this match

In my opinion, Frankfurt was always the better team in this Europa League final. and I say that because the teams that they were able to beat on their way to the finals are a lot stronger compared to the opponent that they faced in the finals. It was a great match and it also had a great ending. Frankfurt was the deserving winner of this Europa League. I am not saying that their opponent was bad but Frankfurt was the better team.

[Jasad]

One thing that was quite enthusiastic about the Frankfurt victory was the huge support from the fans. Nearly 50 thousand supporters packed the Deutsche Bank Park stadium because they could not directly support their team in the final match. I was amazed when I saw the number of supporters who were at the Deutsche Bank Park stadium to support Frankfurt in winning the European League this season and getting tickets to the champions league zone next season.

In terms of supporters, Frankfurt is very loyal in my opinion. not only the final even from the previous round their support was very much and maybe when facing Barcelona at Campnou it was more than imagined.

now they have won and indirectly they are now directly qualified for the UCL next season. and of course this is very good for them

I support what you say, because it must be admitted that Frankfurt is a better team than Rangers. Moreover, the journey through which
Frankfurt is much tougher than Rangers, Frankfurt must be able to beat strong teams like Barcelona and West Ham. Even when Frankfurt
managed to get rid of Barcelona, I actually already had the thought that it was very possible that Frankfurt would be the winner of
the Europa League trophy. Because after all Barcelona is the strongest candidate to win the Europa League trophy this year. Not surprisingly,
Frankfurt can finally achieve maximum achievements this season by winning the Europa League trophy.

Frankfurt deserved this trophy honestly. But they were really lucky to win it on penalties and they took them really nice. Rangers had a good chance in the extra time to win it but Frankfurt saved it somehow. Also Rangers just cannot win a final they lost even last time aswell

[KTChampions]

It turns out that Eintracht has never lost during the entire Europa League season? A very cool achievement for the 11th team in Germany and considering how strong opponents they had.
By the way, it turns out that next season there will be 5 teams from the Bundesliga in the Champions League?  

Eintracht Frankfurt reached a very crucial point and finally won the Europa League trophy thanks to a penalty shootout (5-4) an amazing game.
Waiting for more than 40 years was a long time but now they are achieving it. Congratulations on the dramatic win.

Well there will be a change in the UCL format in the 2024 season, but indeed because Eintracht Frankfurt won maybe 5 teams will enter the UCL.

I think not "maybe" but definitely. Germany, as one of the top championships, has 4 tickets to the Champions League, which are given to the first four teams. Frankfurt get a ticket as the winner of the Europa League. It turns out 5 teams. By the way, it turns out that the maximum number from one country is 6 - if two teams outside the first four win the Europa League + Champions League.

To be the best, you've got to beat the best. That's how the game of football have been an you can tell that Eintracht Frankfurt did beat Barcelona and that was one of there most difficult game and challengers for this trophy. I never imagined any team winning Barcelona and they did after that, the semi finals was just a work over.for them. They surely deserved to win and Rangers stretched there chances as expected, pushing the game to a penalty shootout and eventually lost. Now, they've got a chance @Eintracht Frankfurt to make UCL next season to be more interesting and I cam be quite certain they would see past the group stage if they could keep this rhythm.

I don't know about maintaining the rhythm, but I think Eintracht should be more concerned about maintaining or strengthening its composition It will be very interesting for me to see how the club will approach the recruitment of the team in the period between seasons. On the one hand, there are matches in the Champions League ahead and it is required not to hit the dirt in front of rivals and their fans. On the other hand, Eintracht is not such a rich club to keep the players they need if they receive favorable offers from potential buyers. Still, I don't think that before the start of the season, the club's management seriously assumed and was ready that the team would play in the Champions League for the first time next season.

Barcelona is just using their old tiki-taka strategy to get high ball possession, but Frankfurt without high ball possession can still shoots more than Barcelona. However the match was happen on Barcelona home, Frankfurt is really strong and humiliated Barcelona in their own home.
I'd say the match against Rangers are more difficult than Barcelona since it's really close and Rangers really put all their power to shoots more on the extra time.
