Hutter proud of Eintracht's European run despite Chelsea heartbreak

Adi Hutter was left disappointed and hurt after Eintracht Frankfurt were denied a spot in the Europa League final on penalties, though he swiftly turned his attention to Champions League qualification.

Frankfurt's fairytale European run was dramatically ended at Stamford Bridge, where the Bundesliga side lost 4-3 on penalties to Chelsea following Thursday's 1-1 draw.

Luka Jovic's 10th Europa League goal of the campaign and 27th in all competitions cancelled out Ruben Loftus-cheek's opener and levelled the tie 2-2 on aggregate, eventually forcing extra time and penalties.
