Everyone who has already seen black can take a deep breath: Frankfurt Eintracht is on the verge of coping with the next upheaval.

Your performance against RB Leipzig met the highest standards.

On the one hand, she helped to finally dispel self-doubt that had arisen from the bumpy start and to make a statement that should be understood as a signal of strength not only to the Bundesliga competition.

In two days, a special chapter in the club's history will begin with the sound of the Champions League fanfare in the arena in Frankfurt's city forest.

The 4-0 win against Leipzig, which was based on a convincing team performance, deservedly provided further self-confidence.

All in all, it was Eintracht's best performance since the storm in Camp Nou, when FC Barcelona didn't know in the quarter-finals of the Europa League what would happen to them against this troop, who had been tactically exemplary by Glasner.

The Red Bulls were given horns by Eintracht.

No matter what Tedesco's team tried tactically, the Frankfurt response was more convincing.

The 3-4-1-2 system, with which the Leipzig team initially tried, was robbed of any effect by Glasner's ensemble with an aggressive pressing;

when Leipzig switched to a 4-4-2 with a midfield diamond, Götze, Kamada and Lindström still found gaps through their dexterity and joy in combining, as they later uncovered weak points between the lines in 4-2-3-1 with runs into the depths.

The fact that Eintracht exercised restraint in the summer sale caused astonishment even in club circles.

Wrongly.

Because Saturday showed why Glasner rejected last-minute actionism: This squad is diverse and of high quality in order to have increased ambitions.

And the fact that there is basic trust in the existing staff has an effect on the working atmosphere.

Only those who are convinced of the coach’s route are as courageous and straightforward as against Leipzig – with every ball win that RB wrested from them, the good feeling grew that the mix was right.

Considering the commitments of Mario Götze, Randal Kolo Muani and Lucas Alario as well as the whereabouts of the courted Kevin Trapp, Evan Ndicka, Daichi Kamada and Djibril Sow, the team has formidable quality in exposed places.

There is also no longer a chance player in the squad.

The fact that Borré, the hero of Seville, is currently only a substitute says a lot about the new class - and how remarkably he deals with it, even more: With energy and spirit he also played against RB Leipzig after his substitution.

The season is still too young to be able to rely on reliable certainties.

But those who have only lost to FC Bayern and Real Madrid so far can rightly look to the future with optimism: this Eintracht vintage is also to be expected.
