Robin Koch suffers scare but injury fears eased for Frankfurt

Robin Koch suffered a worrying moment on Saturday during Eintracht Frankfurt's 0-7 friendly defeat to Brentford FC, when the defender and club captain was withdrawn shortly before halftime.

However, the news that emerged the following day proved far more encouraging. Frankfurt released the results of their initial medical assessment, and according to kicker, Koch's injury is not serious. What looked like a significant blow turned out to be more scare than genuine damage for the Bundesliga side, who should be able to count on their captain for upcoming pre-season fixtures.
