Mumbai, November 11: Omar Marmoush scored again and Eintracht Frankfurt survived a late fightback to win 3-2 at Stuttgart in the Bundesliga. Chris Führich scored in the seventh minute of stoppage time to set off wild celebrations for Stuttgart, only for VAR to rule the goal out for offside, leaving the home fans and players deflated.

“It's more than bitter,” said Ermedin Demirovic, who earlier missed a penalty for Stuttgart. “I feel empty.”

Trailing 3-0, Josha Vagnoman had scored in the 86th and Nick Woltemade grabbed another in the 90th as Stuttgart threatened a remarkable comeback after what had been the Marmoush show. The Egypt forward took his tally to 11 goals in 10 league games this season, as many as Bayern Munich star Harry Kane, who scored three penalties to reach his tally. Marmoush has two penalties among his total.

Though Marmoush missed a good early chance, it was Stuttgart that forced the initiative. Demirovic had his penalty saved by Frankfurt goalkeeper Kevin Trapp, Julian Chabot had a goal ruled out for offside, and Enzo Millot fired over.

It was the French forward's fifth league goal of the season, and the eighth goal set up by Marmoush. Kane has also set up eight goals in the Bundesliga this season. Marmoush was involved again after the break when he sent Ansgar Knauff off to run at the Stuttgart defense and pull the ball back with the help of a fortunate deflection for Nathaniel Brown to score in the 55th.

Marmoush then scored himself with a brilliant free kick inside the left post in the 62nd. It proved to be the winner. The result meant Frankfurt consolidated third place, three points clear of defending champion Bayer Leverkusen, and six behind Kane's league-leading Bayern.
