Minute-by-minute report: Will either team take control of this tie in Germany? Join Nick Ames.
Tonight they go again, in this not-particularly-new-fangled Europa League of ours – and they’re tantalisingly close to making history again. Back then, they edged past Fiorentina in the Uefa Cup, only to fall short against Zenit at the last. So at long as there are no disasters tonight, the Ibrox crowd may well be able to see them home next time out. Our players believe, they’ve trained well, they look very focused and we’re going to play in a great atmosphere against a good team. Nkunku goes down in the box as he tries to spin Goldson, but tumbles a bit too easily. Rangers’ fans have been making themselves seen and heard in town all afternoon, in tremendous number.
West Ham face a mountain to climb in Germany after Eintracht Frankfurt beat them 2-1 at the London Stadium in the first leg of their Europa League ...
West Ham had it all to do by the end. It was uncomfortable for West Ham. Eintracht simply had more to them. In the end the only consolation for West Ham was that they are still in the tie. The visitors were backed by a large travelling contingent and, more importantly, were not short of confidence on the pitch. This was their side’s first European semi-final since 1976 – through a strange quirk of fate, that was also against Frankfurt – and it was not a surprise to find the ground packed long before kick-off, the hairs on the back of the neck standing to attention when the home fans launched into a rousing rendition of I’m Forever Blowing Bubbles a the teams emerged. Eintracht Frankfurt were superior for long spells and, as David Moyes picks through a messy performance from his team, he will feel relieved that West Ham will have a chance of reaching the Europa League final when they travel to Germany next week.
It should have been a historic night in London. Instead, West Ham ceded advantage to a Eintracht Frankfurt side that again made its presence felt.
West Ham can avoid that fate in the second leg next week in Germany, but they have to cope with the occasion better than they did here. Instead of this being a famous night in West Ham's modern-day history, they have the ignominious honour of becoming just the third side to lose a Europa League semifinal first leg at home. "I don't know if it is the level -- the level of the games go up and maybe we don't quite have the quality at times required to be at this level," Moyes said. There was a lack of intensity in their defending, while going forward they never hit the exhilarating heights that have got them into this position. Moyes made six changes in West Ham's previous outing at Chelsea in an effort to keep preserve energy levels for this but they still rallied far too late in the piece. After almost 15 minutes of stabilising themselves in front of a capacity crowd fearing the worst, West Ham did improve.

Seventh in the Premier League against ninth in the Bundesliga with both teams having the carrot of knowing that if they triumph they will be just one game away, when the final is played on May 18 in Sevilla, from not only winning a major trophy but also qualifying for next season's UEFA Champions League. 80 minutes to KO: And now we have the Frankfurt line-up too. A real challenge ahead for West Ham, who are struggling to get a foothold in this game so far as the Germans dominate possession. His shot is saved by Areola, but Kamada is on to the rebound and taps it home from practically on the line. 25 mins: It has been a terrific response from West Ham but they cannot afford to let their guard down. Warning signs for the Bundesliga side though they show their danger on the break as Kostic races away after Bowen loses possession but his final ball to Borre is wayward. They deserved their goal and West Ham really are on the back foot here. West Ham needed some impetus to get back in this game and their man off the bench has definitely offered that. West Ham trying to build some late pressure but nothing comes from the resulting corner. That is exactly what Frankfurt did as they set their stall out from the off with a flowing passing move that got them in to West Ham's penalty area. West Ham now know they must win next Thursday in Germany to have any chance of going through. They had survived West Ham's comeback and equaliser to begin the second half still level.
Eintracht Frankfurt is a step away from its first European final in more than 40 years after beating West Ham 2-1 in leg 1 of the Europa League semifinals.

Minute-by-minute report: Will West Ham continue their dream run and take a lead to Germany? Find out with Rob Smyth.
With Craig Dawson likely to be the only recognised centre-back available, David Moyes will probably go with the extra protection of a back three. David Moyes, ostensibly admired but still insidiously disparaged, doesn’t get nearly enough credit for creating what is surely, with a respectful nod to the Paolo Di Canio era, the best West Ham team since the Boys of 86. This is a great piece on Yeboah from the archive. (Don’t play silly buggers and start talking about the 1999 Intertoto Cup, not on a night like tonight.) And they haven’t played in a European semi-final since 1975-76, when - of all the gin joints - they beat Eintracht Frankfurt before losing to Anderlecht in a pulsating final. This has been a terrific response from West Ham, and inevitably the goal came from a high-class set piece. And yet my favourite moment is when he decided to climb atop a pile of guys in Munich. The bad stuff is always more memorable innit.” But if you want charm, romance, great stories and a refreshing lack of entitlement, the Europa League is where it’s at. The ball deflects off a West Ham defender and away from Borre. In the end he takes a touch and is dispossessed by Hinteregger. Antonio had very little time, but it was still a chance. 35 min Knauff, the 20-year-old on loan from Dortmund, looks a player. Cresswell stretches between Knauff and Areola to make a desperate, brilliant tackle, but Knauff is able to collect the loose ball. Borre runs 40 yards and then angles a superb through pass to Knauff, charging infield from the right.

Best wishes to all West Ham supporters who love football and respect their opponents.— Phil Hofmeister (@thehopemaster)April 28, 2022 West Ham said they were aware of the incident and would work to identify the offender.
West Ham's hopes of reaching a first European final for 46 years were dented in their 2-1 defeat at home to Eintracht Frankfurt on Thursday night.
And all the pressure will be on the hosts in next week's decider. An early leveller would spark life back into the Hammers, yet they need to be much more precise and clinical to make that happen. It was not only the start of each half when Frankfurt posed West Ham problems, nevertheless. And after a 1-1 draw against Lyon, Moyes' men blitzed their way to a swaggering 3-0 win out in France to reach the last four. Keeping Frankfurt at bay will make things much easier in the second leg, as only a goal would be required to send the tie to extra-time and a 2-0 win would be enough to book their place in the final. The Hammers got off to the worst start possible in the first leg of their Europa League semi-final tie, falling a goal behind inside the first minute when Ansgar Knauff headed home after 49 seconds.
Rangers will hope for an encore of a memorable quarter-final comeback against a Leipzig side looking to protect a 1-0 advantage from the first leg.
• Rangers are the first Scottish club to appear in the UEFA Europa League semi-finals, making Scotland the 12th country represented at this stage of the competition. They are the only team among the last four whose 2021/22 European campaign began in the qualifying phase and the only group runners-up to have reached this stage of the competition. • New boss Jesse Marsch was in charge for the start of this season's UEFA Champions League campaign, but defeats at Manchester City (3-6), at home to Club Brugge (1-2) and in Paris (2-3) scuppered their chances of a third successive knockout phase appearance. • Leipzig's away record in the UEFA Europa League knockout phase is W3 D1 L1, with 11 goals scored and eight conceded, the sole defeat that 5-2 reverse in Marseille four years ago. No German team has ever reached the UEFA Europa League final. In UEFA competition overall this is the Glasgow club's sixth semi-final, with victories in all of the last four, the latest in the 2007/08 UEFA Cup when they overcame Fiorentina on penalties in Italy after two goalless draws. The last such comeback was by Liverpool against Villarreal in 2015/16 (0-1 a, 3-0 h). They reached the UEFA Champions League round of 16 last term, where they were eliminated by Liverpool, having been semi-finalists, also under coach Julian Nagelsmann, the season before. • Rangers clinched a UEFA Europa League knockout phase berth with a game to spare, finishing runners-up to Lyon in Group A with eight points. • This is Rangers' first appearance in the UEFA Europa League semi-finals, their three previous participations in the knockout phase having all come to a halt in the round of 16. Although they lost their opening two group games – against Lyon (0-2 h) and Sparta Praha (0-1 a) – they remained unbeaten thereafter, taking four points off Brøndby (2-0 h, 1-1 a) and clinching second place with a 2-0 victory over Sparta at Ibrox on Matchday 5 in their first match under new manager Van Bronckhorst, who had replaced Steven Gerrard. • This is Rangers' 52nd UEFA match against German opposition.

I don’t know why I’ve just got that feeling.” “But the Scottish league is not as strong obviously as the Premier League or the Bundesliga. But I’ve still got a feeling it will be West Ham-Rangers in the final. “I think if you look at the four teams that are left in the tournament, and you look at respected leagues and their positions, you would have to say that West Ham and Leipzig are the two favourites to go through,” he said.
