Eintracht Frankfurt will face their local rival FSV Mainz 05 in the penultimate test of the preparation on Wednesday. On the club's own channel "Eintracht TV", the match will be commented by legendary commentator Béla Réthy (69)! Réthy retired after the 2022 FIFA World Cup. For the ZDF, he commented on numerous FIFA and UEFA World and European Championships as well as the Olympic Games. Now the fans can hear his legendary voice again during the Eintracht test. The club recently asked him if he was interested. They want to expand Eintracht TV a bit. I came back from my vacation two days ago, so it was perfect. I'm really looking forward to it. It's even possible that Réthy will be heard more often in the future. The friendly match against FSV will be a kind of test run for further broadcasts. For Réthy, the Eintracht assignment is also particularly special for another reason. Because: He is a big fan of the Hessian Bundesliga club, he admits laughing: "Since I was 11 years old, I've been going to Eintracht's stadium. Now that I'm a pensioner, I can finally admit it." And how does a commentator prepare for a broadcast after such a long break? Réthy tells BILD: "Nothing has changed compared to before. I'm sitting in front of my laptop again and going through the squad. It's quite challenging for Eintracht, of course, because a lot is still happening until the transfer deadline." The commentator will certainly get enough input. Before the game, he will have a background conversation with Eintracht coach Adi Hütter (56). And if he can't help him, who then... Eintracht Frankfurt currently occupies 7th place in the Bundesliga, has 42 points and has achieved 11 wins, 9 draws and 9 losses in 29 games. The team is 34 points behind the leaders Bayern München. The next game will take place on 6th February 2027 against FSV Mainz 05, who are currently in 9th place in the table.
