Lara Prašnikar once again graced the fields of the Champions League, where, in terms of personal statistics this season, things haven’t been as smooth as they’ve been in the Bundesliga. The players of Eintracht Frankfurt hosted their opponents from Lisbon. The home team aimed for all three points, and the guests had similar aspirations, resulting in a 1-1 draw, a more satisfying outcome for them.
Lara Prašnikar and teammates regret a missed penalty kick
The game seemed to be a make-or-break situation for the home team, so they entered the match with determination. Their efforts paid off in the 28th minute when midfielder Geraldine Reuteler scored, putting them in a 1-0 lead. The guests managed to equalize in the 71st minute, with Nycole Raysla scoring for Benfica. Later, Eintracht’s players had an excellent opportunity deep into injury time. Danish referee Frida Nielsen pointed to the penalty spot, and the responsibility for the penalty kick fell to Laura Freigang. However, she failed to convert it as the visiting goalkeeper read her intentions and saved the shot.
Eintracht, with our Lara Prašnikar, currently sits in third place with four points. Benfica’s players are in second place with seven points, while Barcelona leads convincingly. The Catalans have not yet secured the top spot, theoretically, but in reality, there are few scenarios where Barcelona wouldn’t top their group. At the bottom is Rosengard with zero points.
Yesterday, Mateja Zver was supposed to play her match as well. Her team, St. Pölten, was in Prague. However, the match was canceled due to a shooting incident in downtown Prague and will be rescheduled.
