Events
Match Events
- 0' Here we go! The referee blows the whistle and SC Freiburg launch into their encounter with RB Leipzig.

- 41' Magnificent from Christopher Nkunku! That is 90 goals in 523 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 46' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
