Borussia Dortmund are being held to a goalless draw at half time against Eintracht Frankfurt in the DFB Pokal.
Henrikh Mkhitaryan wasted BVB's best chance of the half when he skewed his shot wide of the target after a slick passing exchange had put the Armenian through on goal.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang almost put the visitors ahead when Nuri Sahin slid the striker in from a free kick, but his curled effort could not quite find the corner just after the half-hour mark.
Mkhitaryan missed an earlier chance when he shot wide after Aubameyang has teed his teammate up after racing away from Frankfurt defenders down the right.
