FRANKFURT, Germany (Reuters) -Borussia Dortmund slumped to a 2-0 loss at Eintracht Frankfurt on Friday for their third straight Bundesliga defeat that deepened the crisis at the Ruhr Valley club.

The result piles more pressure on already-embattled Dortmund coach Nuri Sahin, who still enjoyed the backing of club bosses after their midweek defeat by struggling Holstein Kiel.
