Jack Campbell on 10th straight win, celebration with Mitch Marner

DÜSSELDORF, Germany — It's been a long road back to the European elite for Eintracht Frankfurt. Sixty-one years have passed since Frankfurt lost to Real Madrid 7-3 in an epic European Cup final in front of a crowd of 127,000 in what is still considered one of the greatest games in the competition's history. Frankfurt has not played in Europe's top club competition since and its city is better known as the home of the European Central Bank. But Frankfurt is now on course to qualify for next season's Champions League. Frankfurt hosts Wolfsburg on Saturday in a match between the two clubs which have disrupted the Bundesliga top four this season, squeezing out more established names like Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen.
