KAISERSLAUTERN, Dec 14 (SW) - Eintracht Frankfurt extended their unbeaten Bundesliga run to six matches on Wednesday with a 2-1 win at bottom side Kaiserslautern.

Once the match got underway, the visitors asserted themselves early as the in-form team and Markus Weissenberger put Frankfurt in front on five minutes and Francisco Copado quickly made it 2-0 in the 13th minute with a beautiful shot.

Jochen Seitz pulled the home side to within a goal with five minutes to play and they had a chance to get a draw but a late effort by Ferydoon Zandi went wasted over the crossbar.

The match, originally scheduled for 3 Decemeber, was postponed over safety concerns at Kaiserslautern's Fritz-Walter Stadion, one of the venues for the 2006 FIFA World Cup finals. The issue was a crack in the stadium's roof.
