Eintracht Frankfurt Sends Barcelona Crashing Out of Europa League

In the course of 90 minutes, Barcelona went from Europa League favorite to a second humiliating elimination from European competition this season.

After a 1–1 draw in the first leg of the Europa League quarterfinals, German side Eintracht Frankfurt came into the Camp Nou and stunned Barcelona with a 3–2 (4–3 aggregate) win.

The Barça loss comes five months after a 3–0 defeat at Bayern Munich in its Champions League group stage finale saw the Spanish giant miss out on the knockout stages for the first time since 2003–04.
