Egypt forward Omar Marmoush starred again to lead Eintracht Frankfurt to a 4-2 win at promoted Holstein Kiel for its fourth straight Bundesliga win on Sunday.

Marmoush scored two goals and set up the other two to help Frankfurt continue its winning run since starting the league with a 2-0 loss at Borussia Dortmund. He has scored in every win – Marmoush had never scored in four straight league games before.

The 25-year-old forward opened the scoring in the 25th minute and set up Igor Matanović’s first league goal after the break to cancel Shuto Machino’s penalty equalizer for Kiel.

Machino scored again in the 50th, but Marmoush replied again in the 65th, nine minutes before he set up Brazilian defender Tuta to seal the win.

The win means Frankfurt is just a point behind league leader Bayern Munich after five rounds. Bayern dropped its first points Saturday in a 1-1 draw with defending champion Bayer Leverkusen.

Hoffenheim was to host Werder Bremen to close out the round later Sunday.

Israel's Nations League soccer match against host France next month will take place in "usual conditions,” French authorities said Tuesday, a day after Italy hosted Israel in the same competition without incident despite security concerns.

Laurent Nuñez, the Paris police prefect, said in a statement that the match at the Stade de France on Nov. 14 will be played “under the usual conditions for a Nations League match and will of course be open to the public,” The AP reported.

Italy beat Israel 4-1 in the Nations League on Monday, with the game being played against the backdrop of the ongoing conflict in the Middle East which has spread to Lebanon after more than a year-long war in Gaza.

It was the first match Israel has played outside neutral Hungary this year. After the Israel-Hamas war started on Oct. 7 last year, the national soccer team played in Kosovo and Andorra last November.

All Israel matches since then have been in Hungary, including last month’s game against Belgium in the Nations League after the Belgian Football Association refused to host the game for security reasons.
