Chaïbi’s debut strike fuels Frankfurt’s cup surge (Video)

Algerian international Farès Chaïbi opened his season for Eintracht Frankfurt with a decisive strike in the German Cup, entering at the 69th minute against SC St. Tönis and scoring the final goal at the 87th minute of an 11‑0 victory, as shown in the accompanying video.

Pre‑match preparation pays off

During the summer build‑up Chaïbi proved his impact, delivering a decisive pass versus Hull City and another against FSV Frankfurt, performances that earned praise from coach Adi Hütter and set a positive tone for the official match.

Second‑half breakthrough

Substituted on in the 69th minute, Chaïbi played 21 minutes before finding the net on the 87th; a left‑side delivery saw him hold off his defender, curl the ball outward and slot it low to the far post, completing the 11‑0 rout.

The win secured Frankfurt’s qualification for the second round of the German Cup, confirming the team’s early momentum in the competition.

Looking ahead, Frankfurt will launch their Bundesliga campaign on Saturday 29 August at 15:30 on Union Berlin’s ground, and Chaïbi’s convincing cup cameo positions him as a strong candidate for a starting role in the league opener.
