An incredible journey

◎ Didn’t lose a single game
◉ Lifted the trophy
Take a bow Frankfurt.
0 – Eintracht Frankfurt are the third club to start the season in the Europa League group stage and end up lifting the trophy without losing once. Previously only Villarreal in 2020-21 and Chelsea in 2018-19 had done so. Invincibles.
13/13 - Eintracht Frankfurt scored in all 13 of their UEFA Europa League games this season. Since the rebrand of the competition in 2009, they’re just the second side to score in every single game from the group stages to the final after Chelsea in 2018-19. Euphoria.
