Farès Chaïbi takes an in-swinger from the left, but it's straight into the thankful gloves of Kevin Müller.

Once again, the striker is played through for another one-on-one with the goalkeeper. He tries to bend it round Kevin Müller, but the Heidenheim keeper is quick off his line to close down the angle and make the save. That was Wahi's second big chance this game for him to grab his first Bundesliga goal.

Farès Chaïbi threads a great ball through the middle of the Heidenheim backline for Wahi to chase. The striker tries to poke it past the goalkeeper with his toe, but it was always curling away from goal.

Frankfurt work it well again, culminating in Ekitiké laying it off to Theate, who had rushed up from the back and forced a fantastic save out of Kevin Müller from close range. The Belgian has had two great opportunities today but his first Bundesliga goal continues to elude him.

It's incredible the way Frankfurt turn defence into attack. Santos plays a ball up from the back. Ekitiké heads it down for Mario Götze, who is instantly involved. The German shifts it onto Farès Chaïbi, who slips Brown through to the byline. The wide man cuts it back to Ekitiké - the man who started the move - for a finish into an open net at the far post. A true team goal!

Conteh has been really lively for the visitors since coming on. This time, he cuts it back from the byline and into the path of Wanner, who gets a shot off, but Santos is there to make the save.

How did that stay out? Hugo Ekitiké plays a low cross into the six-yard box from the left, looking for Chaïbi in the middle. Siersleben slides in to make the block, steering it goalwards and past his keeper, but he's saved by the bar, which rattles after his clearance.

Frankfurt's no. 8 stays down for a while, briefly receiving treatment. He's back to his feet now though and play continues.

Frankfurt double their advantage with something of an atypical goalscorer! Theate plays a cross from deep in towards Ekitiké. The Frenchman controls it in the box with his studs, touching it down for Koch, who had continued a great run from deep and is rewarded when he smashes the loose ball home into the bottom right corner. A striker's finish from Frankfurt's centre-back there!

Released with a long ball over the top, Ekitiké chases the ball to the byline. It looks as if he won't get there, but the Frenchman slides to keep it in play right at the byline, before losing out to a Heidenheim defender. The home crowd loved that display of hard work, however, fervently applauding their no. 11.

In acres of space, Uzun has the liberty of waiting to see which options present themselves to him. He spots the run of Kristensen, picking him out with an inch-perfect pass, but the full-back's cross is straight into the arms of Kevin Müller.

Hugo Ekitiké cuts it back from the byline with an inviting ball into the box. Theate comes steaming in, striking it first-time with his favoured left foot and with the whole of the goal to aim at, but he can only find the side netting. That was a golden opportunity to make it 2-0!

Picking up the ball on the left just outside the Heidenheim box, Ekitiké moves the ball across before gliding past his marker and opening up his body for a shot, whipping it goalwards and forcing a good save out of Kevin Müller. Farès Chaïbi takes the resulting corner, but Heidenheim head it clear.

It's the Eagles who taste first blood. Ekitiké, Chaïbi and Bahoya all triangulate excellently in a well-worked team goal. From the left flank, Ekitiké plays Chaïbi through to the byline, from where the midfielder cuts it back into the path of Bahoya, who strokes it home from close range with a composed finish. How slick!

Frankfurt find themselves in a four-on-three scenario. Ekitiké tries to pick out Bahoya at the far post, but he puts too much on the pass, forcing Bahoya wide. The winger manages to win a corner, but the hosts can't make anything of it.

The French forward picks it up outside the Heidenheim box, before turning and driving forwards. He lets a shot fly which is deflected behind for the first corner of the afternoon, but Frankfurt can't make anything of the resultant set-piece.

Bahoya beats his man down the left and fizzes a low cross towards the back post. Chaïbi and Kristensen are arriving but neither player can manage to get a toe to it, which is all it would've needed. It seemingly took them both by surprise to have such a good chance so early on...
