Hannover 96 1 - 2 Eintracht Frankfurt: Marc Stendera double stops Hannover in their tracks

Eintracht Frankfurt ended Hannover's recent resurgence by bouncing back from a heavy defeat at home to Borussia Monchengladbach by winning 2-1 at the Niedersachsenstadion.

After a tight and cagey opening 45 minutes, Felix Klaus put the hosts in front from Hiroshi Kiyotake's pass.

Their lead lasted only six minutes, however, as Marc Stendera skipped past Salif Sane and found the bottom right-hand corner to level matters.

Leon Andreasen, whose controversial goal with his hand earned Hannover victory over Cologne a week ago, wasted a chance to put the Reds back in front with a header.

It proved a costly miss as Stendera added his second of the game from Stefan Aigner's header and Frankfurt held on to end a run of five games without a win and move away from the danger zone.
