Free-scoring Hoffenheim have surprisingly drawn a blank in their home game against Eintracht Frankfurt in the Bundesliga.
In a closely-fought opening to the game it was the visitors who had the first sight of goal as Martin Lanig struck low from outside the box, but Jens Grahl was there in the home goal to tip wide.
Hoffenheim started to up the pressure and Niklas Sule was guilty of missing a really good chance with a header from a corner, only managing to direct it over the bar.
Kevin Volland then had a great chance for the hosts but his shot was parried back into the danger area before being put behind by Lanig.
In the second half the hosts piled forwards, with both Volland and then Roberto Firmino coming close but they were unable to create the real chance that they needed to win.
