Eintracht Frankfurt did little to allay their Bundesliga relegation
fears with a scoreless draw at home to Hamburger SV on Friday.
Hamburg's
Artjoms Rudnevs had the first big chance after combining with Aaron
Hunt in the 25th minute, only for Frankfurt goalkeeper Lukas Hradecky to
pull off a good save.
The visitors continued to take the
initiative, defender Gotoku Sakai firing over before Nicolai Mueller
wasted a great chance before the break.
Frankfurt improved after
the interval, when Makoto Hasebe's effort was just a whisker off the far
post. Stefan Aigner went close later on only to be blocked by Hamburg
'keeper Rene Adler at his near post.

"With a bit of luck we could
have decided the game with that chance for Aigner," Frankfurt chairman
Heribert Bruchhagen said. "HSV were confident, strong and they made it
difficult for us."
Bruchhagen criticised Frankfurt fans who set off flares behind one of the goals.
"It's not in our interest, it harms us," the Frankfurt chairman said.
Frankfurt was just two points of the relegation zone ahead of the rest of the 22nd round.
"I'm
very confident that the team is good enough to survive. We're obliged
to get points and that's what we'll do," Bruchhagen said.
Hamburg moved provisionally 10th.
"We
had good chances. We have to make sure we continue like that in the
next game and that we get them there," midfielder Gideon Jung said.
