Eintracht Frankfurt's Kevin-Prince Boateng dedicated his goal against Borussia Mönchengladbach on Saturday to Ajax midfielder Abdelhak Nouri, who suffered serious brain damage after collapsing in a pre-season friendly with Werder Bremen on 8 July.
Breaking the deadlock in the first half of the Matchday 3 trip to Gladbach, Boateng lifted up his Frankfurt jersey to reveal a red T-shirt printed with Nouri's name and squad number.
