The scoring spectacle commenced with South Korean defender Kim Min-jae breaking the deadlock for Bayern Munich just 15 minutes into the match.
A mere seven minutes later, the Egyptian goal-scoring sensation, Marmoush, leveled the playing field for hosts, Eintracht, with a thunderous strike from inside the box, courtesy of a precise assist from winger Ansgar Knauff.
Then the 25-year-old set up French striker Hugo Ekitike to put Eintracht Frankfurt in the lead in the 35th minute.
Bayern Munich's Dayot Upamecano equalized just before halftime, ensuring both teams entered the break on level terms.
In the 53rd minute, Michael Olise notched the third goal for Bayern Munich, momentarily giving the visitors the lead.
However, the Egyptian star Marmoush had the final say, salvaging a draw for Eintracht Frankfurt in injury time with a deft lob over keeper Manuel Neuer.
Marmoush's impressive form sees him now with eight goals in the Bundesliga this season, three ahead of England's Harry Kane.
His recent standout performances include a crucial goal in the 2-0 victory over Borussia M'gladbach and a brace in Frankfurt's 2-1 triumph against Wolfsburg, following a stellar display in their 3-1 win against Hoffenheim on the second matchday, where he contributed a goal and an assist.
Marmoush notched his first-ever Europa League goal in the 3-1 victory against Besiktas last week, raising his total tally to nine goals in nine games this season.
Throughout the 2023/2024 season, the Egyptian standout has been in exceptional form, accumulating an impressive tally of 17 goals and 6 assists in 41 appearances for the German side across all competitions.
Currently, the Eagles sit in third place in the Bundesliga standings with 13 points, trailing league leaders Bayern Munich by a mere one point.
