Events

Match Events

  • 5' The energy levels are beginning to show. Christian Streich might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 6' What composure from Xavi Simons! The Netherlands international strokes it home. 1-0.
  • 11' Supporters expect more eagerness from Chikwubuike Adamu, as he is very good at scoring at Red Bull Arena with 2 goals in the last 2 games.

  • 31' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. SC Freiburg needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.

  • 61' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

  • 79' SC Freiburg make a change. Merlin Rohl trudges off to be replaced by Ritsu Doan on 79 minutes.
