3' GOAL! Freiburg 1-0 Bayern (Holer)
GOAL! Holer gives the home side an early lead! Freiburg work the ball well down the left-hand side. Gunter finds space to swing a cross into the area and Holer rises well at the near post and steers his header beyond Ulreich and into the bottom right corner. 1-0.
22' GOAL! Freiburg 1-1 Bayern (Lewandowski)
GOAL! Lewandowski gets Bayern level! Following a corner from the right, Freiburg fail to clear their lines on numerous occasions and Goretzka is able to hook to ball back into a dangerous area from the edge of the box. Lewandowski does exceptionally well to control Goretzka’s pass before acrobatically finding the bottom left corner with a fantastic effort. 1-1.
72' GREAT CHANCE! Gnabry's shot saved
CHANCE! James slides the ball down the right for Gnabry who made a bright overlapping run. The German takes the ball in his stride before looking to strike it across goal and into the bottom right corner, but Schwolow is equal to it as he gets down quickly to make the save in the centre of his goal.
Match reports
Bayern Munich failed to produce a second-half winner against a gutsy Freiburg as they were held to a 1-1 draw that allowed Borussia Dortmund to move two points clear at the top of the Bundesliga.
Lucas Holer put the hosts in front after just three minutes but Robert Lewandowski soon got the champions back on level terms with his 199th Bundesliga goal.
The visitors began to dominate but Freiburg stood firm, with a fantastic defensive performance and a series of saves from Alexander Schwolow denying Bayern, who also hit the post late on through Leon Goretzka.
Dortmund's win over Wolfsburg ensured they moved two points clear of Bayern at the top of the table ahead of the two clubs meeting in next weekend's Der Klassiker.
