FWEEE!
The final whistle blew as the match ended with loud cheers from the fans.
"And that is it folks, the end of this fairly one-sided Europa League fixture. Eintracht Frankfurt with a comfortable 3-0 win. The man of the match has just been released by UEFA; unsurprisingly, it is Lukas Brandt. One goal and two assists, who else deserves it?"
Lukas, who was subbed off in the 83rd minute, stepped onto the pitch with a jacket on as he joined his teammates in celebrating their qualification for the round of 16. The fans cheered as the Ultras played drums and sang chants of victory.
Lukas was later handed the player-of-the-match award as he headed to the dressing room. A small, sleek trophy with the Europa League emblem cut into its metallic face, catching the dim corridor lights.
Surprisingly, there wasn't much ceremony behind the trophy as he just posed for a picture with the UEFA representative who handed him the trophy.
