West Ham faces Eintracht Frankfurt at home in the first leg of the Europa League semi-finals, with the mission of taking advantage in the tie. However, the German team struck first at 45 seconds, with a goal from Ansgar Knauff, assisted by Rafael Santos Borré.

The ball had started rolling at the London Stadium after the whistle of Dutch referee Serdar Gözübüyük. Daichi Kamada began organizing the attack of the 'Eagles', advancing down the left flank, taking advantage of the little aggressiveness to press from his opponents.

Immediately, the Japanese player relied on the Colombian Rafael Santos Borré, who received the ball near the edge of the area, without a marker and with a lot of calmness. The former River Plate player turned on his own axis and lifted a cross towards the smaller rectangle, looking for the arrival of one of his teammates.

There appeared Ansgar Knauff to connect with a header and beat goalkeeper Alphonse Aréola. Pablo Fornals, who was in charge of marking the German wing-back, had been easily overcome and did not hide his regret for the negative outcome of the play for the 'Hammers' interests.

For now, West Ham must fight from behind to get a favorable result at home and continue dreaming of advancing to the Europa League final. Remember that Eintracht Frankfurt had already shown their danger in the quarterfinals, by eliminating Barcelona categorically in the Camp Nou.
