oh and he scores
And they've just subbed him straight away which is a bit of a ball ache.
Still, 1st start for Frankfurt and capped it off with a tremendous finish.

Player Valuation: £25m
Here's the goal
Just to add to the posts above, Tarashaj probably got his chance because a couple of Frankfurt players were out (one from a previous red card, one injured).
OS Match Report
"While the hosts were still getting themselves organised, Tarashaj suddenly made his way into a promising position in the penalty area and fell to the ground. The referee decided it was a dive and gave a free kick to Hamburg."
"Only three minutes later, the Eagles made their numbers count when Tarashaj showed his elusiveness in the penalty area and made his way past a number of defenders before scoring to make it 2:0."
Quote from Tarashaj in Bild newspaper: "I thought there was contact, I only went down because I thought he was going to catch me."
(Re the goal) "I turned him on the right and then on the left and then whacked it under the bar. It was a good victory and a team performance that we can be proud of."
Fan Forum
"The dive by Tarashaj was stupid and he needs to impose himself a little more, on the game and in the interview afterwards. He showed he didn't need to do it with the way he took his goal."
Other Stuff
The first Frankfurt goal was down to Lewis Holtby (ex-Spurs and -Fulham Everton fan who has been linked with us in the past) who first lost the ball and then turned a cross into his own net.
Frankfurt move up to 4th in the Bundesliga (before today's regular programme).

Cheltenham Town - Russell Griffiths played full match in 1-0 away win at Grimsby Town
OS Match Report
"Just two minutes into the game Grimsby created the first chance as Omar Bogle was given the ball and beat Aaron Downes, but his shot was saved by the feet of Russell Griffiths."
"The Robins were hanging on at this point, as four minutes later it took another brilliant save from Griffiths to keep out Bogle’s shot and maintain the away side’s slender advantage."
Twitter stuff
2: First chance of the game goes to Grimsby as Bogle twists and turns past Downes but his shot is well saved by Griffiths.
74: Brilliant save from Griffiths to deny Bogle from close range! Grimsby very much on top but it's still 0-1
78: Griffiths again does well to get down and save from Bogle's curling effort. Come on boys hold out!
Fan comments
"Also well done Russell Griffiths, making the important saves to give us the points that Phillips and Flatt were making last season."

This is quite an achievement for Russell Griffiths, given he's up against 3 divisions of goalkeeping talent.

OS Match Report
"Although they led on two occasions the Robins were indebted to a fine display of goalkeeping by Russell Griffiths, who produced a string a great saves to ensure a share of the points."
"Griffiths was called into his first save of the game, a diving stop, only 15 seconds in when he leapt to his left to deny Jamille Matt from 12 yards."
"Vassell was then gifted a free header, meeting Colin Daniel’s inviting ball from the right with a decent enough header but Griffiths was equal to it."
"Cheltenham were indebted to another fine save from Griffiths 25 minutes from time to prevent Jamille Matt adding a third after the striker picked up Aaron Downes’ uncertain clearance."
Twitter stuff
1: 15 seconds in and Russ Griffiths has already made a great save - low to his left to deny Jamille Matt. Fast start from @BlackpoolFC
7: Hits the bar! On the counter attack Potts took it around Griffiths but his shot cannons back off the bar! Lucky...
8: Vassell has a free header 4 yards out but Griffiths again does well - getting down low to push it away. Great chance for @BlackpoolFC
59: Vassell plays in Potts with a good ball but Griffiths does excellently to come out and smothers the shot - a great save
Blackpool manager praises Griffiths:
Fan comment
"If I gave ratings today Griffiths would get a 7"
"Griffiths was my Mom; no-one else really deserved it."
Griffiths gets his own thread on their forum debating whether his loan should be extended.

Some disappointing loans there, not getting game time, garbutt especially, not as good as we first thought by the look of it.

"On 56 minutes Russell Griffiths had to be alert to keep out Ryan Lowe’s close range effort, but in truth the veteran striker’s shot was tame and he should have done better from the position he was in."
"And the away side levelled things up on 73 minutes when George Cooper’s fantastic flick went straight into the path of Jones, who slotted the ball past Griffiths and into the bottom left corner."
