Frankfurt's Keeper Errors Cost Them Against Mainz

Eintracht Frankfurt faced a disappointing 3-1 loss to Mainz in the Bundesliga's 15th round, largely due to two shocking errors by their goalkeeper, Kawa Santos.

The first blunder occurred in the 15th minute when Santos, under pressure during defensive passing, misplaced a ball that led to Mainz's opening goal. In an attempt to clear, Santos accidentally knocked the ball into his own net.

Frankfurt, already struggling after Nadiem Amiri was sent off in the 58th minute, suffered again when Santos failed to handle a back-pass correctly. The mistake gifted Mainz another easy opportunity, which they capitalized on to extend their lead.

Though Frankfurt managed to score a consolation goal in the 75th minute, Santos's mistakes overshadowed their efforts, leaving the team and fans frustrated with the result.
