Hoffenheim secured their place in the Europa League last-16 with a thrilling victory over Eintracht Frankfurt in extra time at the Veltins-Arena on Wednesday night.

The hosts took the lead through a goal from Klemen Kramaric in the first half, but Frankfurt fought back to level things up before the break thanks to a strike from Michael Baumgartner.

In the second half, Hoffenheim were able to hold onto their advantage as they went on to win 2-1 on penalties after the match had finished 1-1 after regular time.

Kramaric was named man of the match for his impressive performance, which saw him score both goals for Hoffenheim.

The win means that Hoffenheim will now face either Manchester United or FC Midtjylland in the next round of the competition.

It's been a successful season so far for Hoffenheim, who have qualified for the Europa League for the first time since 2014.

The club has been working hard behind the scenes to improve its squad, and it seems like they've made some important signings during the transfer window.

With a strong team and a good manager in Joachim Low, it looks like Hoffenheim could be a force to be reckoned with in European football in the future.

Overall, it was a great result for Hoffenheim, and one that sets them up nicely for the rest of the season.
