Overview
- Freiburg opened the scoring when Derry Scherhant finished a move from Philipp Treu to put the visitors ahead early.
- Ibrahim Maza equalised with a composed finish after a one-two involving Patrik Schick, and Maza set up Schick for the 76th-minute winner.
- Patrik Schick became the first Leverkusen forward to score in each of the club’s first six Bundesliga matches this season.
- The loss was Freiburg’s first of the campaign and left Leverkusen level with them on points but behind on goal difference while Bayern moved to the top of the table.
- Play was halted for about five minutes when Freiburg supporters threw tennis balls in protest of away‑fan restrictions at the BayArena and Germany coach Jürgen Klopp watched from the stands after recent Freiburg call‑ups.
