Philippines ace Schrock scores as Eintracht Frankfurt get better of APOEL

Stephan Schrock was on target for Eintracht Frankfurt as they beat APOEL Nicosia 2-0 in the Europa League on Thursday.

The 27-year old German-born Philippines international headed home Constant Djakpa's 67th minute cross to open the scoring before Djakpa added a second ten minutes later.

The victory allowed the Eagles to finish top of the Group F table with five wins and a loss from their six outings and four points clear of second-placed Maccabi Tel Aviv.

Schrock, who switched allegiances from Germany to the Philippines in 2011, netted his first goal for Frankfurt since joining from Hoffenheim in June this year.
