Faux pas after Eintracht victory: reporter plans Werder captain!
The new 2025 Bundesliga season has started with a lot of spectacle. Last weekend, Eintracht Frankfurt came up trumps in the opening game and swept Werder Bremen 4-1. There were not only sporting highlights, but also a small faux pas by Sky reporter Katharina Kleinfeldt that caused a stir. Südwest24 reports that Kleinfeldt mistakenly mistook Werder captain Marco Friedl for Eintracht goalkeeper Michael Zetterer during an interview.
The misunderstanding arose from an exchange of jerseys between Friedl and Zetterer. When Kleinfeldt unexpectedly asked Friedl a question, he realized she didn't realize he didn't play for Frankfurt. “I’m a Werder Bremen player, in case that’s not clear,” Friedl clarified, while Kleinfeldt promptly apologized. The small mistake was quickly resolved and the interview proceeded without further incident.
Goal-filled encounter
The game itself offered plenty of dramatic moments. Can Uzun scored the first goal of the game in the 21st minute, followed by a goal from newcomer Jean-Matteo Bahoya, who scored his first goal for Werder three minutes later. Yahoo Sports reports, that Bahoya increased again after half-time to 3-0, with Uzun shining as an assist provider.
In another exciting moment, Jonathan Burkardt had an excellent chance on his Bundesliga debut for Eintracht, but his effort hit the crossbar. Shortly before half-time, Marco Friedl also hit the crossbar, but his goal was disallowed due to offside. Werder attacker Justin Njinmah finally scored a consolation goal, but Ansgar Knauff made the final score 4-1 perfect with his goal in the 70th minute.
Eintracht Frankfurt and the Bundesliga
Eintracht Frankfurt has established itself as an integral part of the Bundesliga in recent years. The club is currently in seventh place out of a total of 58 in the all-time table. They can look back on many records, such as the record player Karl-Heinz Körbel, who made an impressive 602 appearances. The Wikipedia page to the records lists some of these records and shows how diverse the history of Eintracht is.
With their strong start against Werder Bremen, Frankfurt have shown that they want to be at the top again this season. The game was not only a sign of Eintracht's strength, but also has the potential to develop into a thrilling competition for the top spots in the Bundesliga.
