So.. Cresswell gets red carded in their 1st QF game against Lyon in the 45th minute. West Ham manages to draw the game and progress after a great away game in France.

Cresswell returns and gets RED CARDED in 19th minute of their 2nd semifinal - giving Eintracht a clear path to the final.

I really don't know what I'd tell him if I was Moyes.

At the beginning of the match, West Ham still looked promising, although they didn't get many chances, but they dominated the game a bit more. Unfortunately, West Ham have to face their nightmare when Cresswell got a red card in the 18th minute and of course, this greatly affects their appearance. The game isn't over yet, but chasing 2 goals with only 10 men is a tough mission, moreover, West Ham comes as guests.

It is a very poor half for WestHam United; they are a man down and also 2 goals down away at Frankfurt; bar football miracles; it is looking impossible for WestHam to overturn this defeat and qualify for the europa league final.

Meanwhile Rangers are 2 goals up against Liezpig; and 2-1 on aggregrate. Theres 45 minutes left to play. Who are your predicted winners?

Leipzig's poor form in the Bundesliga seems to have continued into the Europa League, Leipzig is currently two goals behind by Rangers.
There is still a chance for Leipzig to score a goal to make the aggregate equal first, I still believe Leipzig can turn things around. The most
important thing is that Leipzig must play more carefully, don't let Rangers score another goal. For Rangers, even though they are already
ahead on aggregate, Rangers should still struggle to score a third goal, because Rangers are still not said to be safe.

The match in the second half is actually difficult to predict, because if we look at the match statistics the two teams are not much different.
So there is still a chance for both teams to qualify for the final, we will see if Rangers can maintain their aggregate advantage, or Leipzig could
turn things around. What is certain is that Leipzig are now under considerable pressure, because they are in a position to fall behind.
But as long as the game is not over, there are still opportunities for Leipzig.

It seems West Ham couldn't be more trying to win the second leg today after one of their players got a red card. It certainly hurts the team so far because they have to play with 10 people from the middle of the first half. West Ham will fail to reach the final and Frankfurt will get that ticket today.

Then Rangers surprisingly scored two first-half goals which put them leading 2-1 on aggregate. If Leipzig can't score then they will also miss out on the final, but if they do qualify then the chances of winning the title look good for those who will probably be up against a team they have played against in the league many times.

Leipzig have finally found the goal they were making a big effort to score by Nkunku. It has just came and the rest of the game is going to be much more interesting now. Because the current 2-1 score is going to cause the game to go straight to extra time. I think that the remaining minutes would be played in a more controlled way. I'm saying this for both teams I mean. Because taking a big risk at this point would cost that team too much. One goal will bring the finale to the team that score now in the end.

West Ham's position was very difficult after one player came out early with 10 men of course the game would not be optimal and Frankfurt took this opportunity but it was good enough they could score in the 26th minute the rest West Ham could hold on until now but they couldn't reply. which finally ended 1-0 with AGG 3-1. If West Ham did not get their cards maybe the game was more aggressive than West Ham.

Rangers had ended the match 3-1 this was an unexpected performance that I thought Leipzig would go through but it was different Rangers went ahead and could hold on until the final whistle.

To get a red card that early in the game was really unlucky for Westham and definitely a huge factor in the match today. I also have to say though that this red card was totally deserved as the player of frankfurt could have moved completely alone towards the goal otherwise and thankfully the video referee insisted there and let the referee check that scene again. Overall i think that Frankfurt has deserved to go through to the final. They were the better team over the two legs in my opinion and the fans were just great today again.
The result of the other match is very surprising to me as Leipzig had the best squad out of all 4 teams that were in the semi final.

What a win for both teams and its gonna be an intresting final now for sure. Rangers made a really surprising win and won with a disadvantage from last game. I think Frankfurt is the favorite in the finals and im going with them to win the europe league
