Eintracht Frankfurt and Borussia Mönchengladbach played out a thrilling draw in their Bundesliga clash at the Commerzbank-Arena on Sunday.
The match was full of action from start to finish, with both teams creating chances throughout the game.
In the first half, Eintracht Frankfurt had the better of the play and were unlucky not to take the lead when they were awarded a penalty after Borussia Mönchengladbach defender Julian Draxler handled the ball in the box.
However, the visitors managed to clear the danger and the deadlock remained until the second half.
Borussia Mönchengladbach then equalized through substitute Michael Essien, who scored his first goal for the club since joining from Chelsea earlier this season.
The German champions continued to create opportunities but could not find the back of the net as the game ended all square.
Despite the draw, Eintracht Frankfurt will be happy with their performance against one of the top teams in Germany.
