Japanese midfielder Daichi Kamada scored in his second consecutive Champions League match as Eintracht Frankfurt pulled off a 2-1 Group D win at home to Olympique Marseille on Wednesday.

The win moved Frankfurt to seven points, one behind Group D leaders Tottenham Hotspur. Frankfurt, the reigning Europa League champions, will advance to the round of 16 with a win over Sporting in their final group match next week.

Sporting, for whom Japanese midfielder Hidemasa Morita started in their 1-1 away draw at Spurs, lead Frankfurt on goal difference. Marseille are last with six points.

Kamada opened the scoring just three minutes into the match, moving up from midfield and firing home after being set up by an outstanding feint by Jesper Lindstrom.

Matteo Guendouzi equalized for the French club in the 22nd minute, but Randal Kolo Muani put Frankfurt back in front five minutes later.

"I'm now confident of scoring goals when chances come my way," Kamada said.

Asked to comment on his team's next match against Sporting, Kamada said, "We can beat them. I'll do whatever I can to win the game."
