Busy in finale
Doan registered three shots (one on goal), six crosses (one accurate) and four corners in Saturday's 2-2 draw against VfB Stuttgart.
Analysis: Doan wrapped up his first season in Frankfurt with a pair of chances created during a solid, if not glamorous showing. The winger was a threat throughout the match, but couldn't get on the scoresheet. He was good throughout the season, making 31 appearances (28 starts) on the way to five goals and five assists, though he wasn't as productive as his final season with Freiburg.
Set for return
Doan is no longer suspended and is an option for his club again.
Analysis: Doan had to miss the club's last contest due to a yellow card ban, but is now set for his return, as the ban has been served. This will give the club back a regular starter for the final two games of the season, recording five goals and five assists in 29 appearances (26 starts) this season.
Set to miss Hamburger match
Doan is set to be suspended after accumulating five yellow cards in the Bundesliga.
Analysis: Doan scored in the 66th minute but picked up his fifth yellow card in the Bundesliga and is now suspended for the match against Hamburger on May 2. The Japanese forward had been playing a rotational role in recent matches, so his absence is unlikely to be heavily felt, with Paul Love Arrhov or Fares Chaibi likely to fill the role until he returns.
