Frankfurt 1 – 0 West Ham

Ten-man West Ham fell short of reaching a first major European final for 46 years as they were beaten 1-0 at Eintracht Frankfurt in Thursday’s Europa League semi-final second leg, losing the tie 3-1 on aggregate.

Aaron Cresswell was sent off after 19 minutes for denying a goalscoring opportunity following VAR intervention, before an unmarked Rafael Santos Borre opened the scoring from close range (26) to extend Frankfurt’s aggregate lead.

West Ham manager David Moyes was also sent off after he angrily kicked a ball towards the Frankfurt bench in the 78th minute, having watched his side struggle to recover after going a man down.

Frankfurt, who remain unbeaten in the Europa League, will play Rangers in the final on May 18 in Seville.
