Dhe SC Freiburg still trumps in the style of a top team. The Breisgauers won 3-1 against the bottom team of SpVgg Greuther Fürth on matchday 10 of the Bundesliga and are still the only unbeaten eleven in the elite class.
An own goal by Simon Asta and goals from Nicolas Höfler and Vincenzo Grifo from a penalty kick ensured the success of Freiburg, who set their club record with ten games without defeat in a row. Jamie Leweling’s goal did not change that either. In addition, the SC, who have to play against champions Bayern Munich on the coming match day, have been unbeaten for nine home games.
It looks completely different with the newcomer from Fürth. The team of coach Stefan Leitl, who was missing five professionals due to corona infections, lost for the eighth time in a row. The Franks, the only team to have lost in all away games, only have one point in their account.
In front of 31,500 spectators, the Freiburg dominated the initial phase. The Freiburg, who ran up due to a spectator death in the previous home game with mourning ribbon, pushed the Fürth almost continuously on the defensive.
Almost nothing came from the Franks on the offensive. The Fürth, who were missing in addition to the Corona failures, Marco Meyerhöfer, Justin Hoogma, Gideon Jung, Robin Kehr, Jessic Ngankam and Havard Nielsen, were all in the defense.
Freiburg increased
However, SpVgg could not prevent the deficit, which became more and more apparent as the game progressed. Asta’s attempt to defend himself with a header after a cross from Lucas Höler failed completely and the ball landed in its own net.
After the tour, the Freiburg team, who had to do without Nils Petersen, Roland Sallai and Jonathan Schmid, increased the pace again. The SC wanted to ensure clear conditions early on. That succeeded before the break. After a corner from Grifo, Höfler hit his head with the kind help of the Fürth goalkeeper Marius Funk.
At the beginning of the second round, the Fürth team booked their first chance to score through Julian Green. After that, the shamrocks got a little bolder. Freiburg shifted down several gears, the next goal was in the air – Leweling succeeded. But shortly afterwards Grifo restored the old distance from the point.
