Following their explosive start to the season, Frankfurt went into Saturday's match against Hannover hoping to bring a halt to a two-game losing streak. With Ioannis Amanatidis still not 100 per cent fit, the Greek star had to make do with a place on the bench for the hosts, meaning Martin Fenin and Nikos Liberopoulos began the match in attack.

In Sunday's early Bundesliga kick off, Eintracht Frankfurt maintained their unbeaten start to the season with a valuable 1-1 draw at home to early pacesetters Hamburger SV at the Commerzbank Arena.

A glance at the top of the table ahead of matchday 6 in the Bundesliga reveals one real surprise at this early stage of the season. Hamburg and Leverkusen could easily have been foreseen among the frontrunners, Schalke as well with a little imagination. Quite aside from the experts though, even Eintracht Frankfurt's most devoted fans could hardly have anticipated them sitting proudly in fourth place.

Finally it was over – the summer break. That dry, thirsty and endless seeming bastard of a period in between seasons. No game of importance, an empty stadium, no headlines, no action.

In an even affair at the Commerzbank Arena, Eintracht Frankfurt and Borussia Dortmund took a both a goal and a point apiece from Saturday afternoon's match to leave the hosts' unbeaten record so far in 2009/10 intact.

Everything began in the garden behind their house. Caio César Alves dos Santos father hammered together a goal from wooden planks and boards for his football-mad son. Every day the boy, who is now known by the name of Caio, practiced with his brother.

Ioannis Amanatidis has lived so long in Germany already that it is no surprise he displays some typically German qualities on the pitch: Ambition, unbreakable will and fighting spirit. This could have something to with the fact that things have never been easy for the striker.

It is surely only a coincidence that when Maik Franz was asked on the Eintracht Frankfurt home page what is his favourite film was, it turned out to be the Hollywood blockbuster \"Anger Management.? In this comedy, Adam Sandler plays a mild-mannered young man who is wrongly sentenced to an anger management programme.

It was the 28th of June in 1959, 50 years ago today, when hopeful Eintracht supporters made their way to the Olympic stadium in Berlin. The final of the German title race was to be held there and it was Eintracht Frankfurt playing against the big rival from the other side of the river Main – Kickers Offenbach.
