After half an eternity without a win, RB Leipzig have shown a sign of life - and what a sign it is! With a 3:0 win against Eintracht Frankfurt, who have been so strong in the league, the "Bulls" managed a veritable liberating blow in the current crisis.

Their progression to the quarter-finals saved coach Marco Rose's job for the time being after the Saxons had gone six games without a win and conceded five defeats in the process.

Benjamin Sesko (31') and Loïs Openda (50', 58') sealed Leipzig's progress, with Christoph Baumgartner and Nicolas Seiwald playing through and Xaver Schlager coming on as a substitute in the 71st minute.
