Eintracht Frankfurt

Eintracht Frankfurt may have to stage one of its coming matches behind closed doors after its fans once again caused disruption. Fireworks and flares were lit by Frankfurt followers in Leverkusen last weekend. Since cracking down on the use of pyrotechnics is one of the German Football Association's (DFB) priorities right now, a stadium ban is being considered as a solution, although this would punish those peaceful fans, according to the club's president Heribert Bruchhagen. "We've reached the point where punishing us gets nowhere - we need everybody's help, and that means the help from the DFB, the spectators and the good-willed fans."
