Key numbers
- 10 shots on target to 2 told the story
- Sub Matanović: 2 goals, 1 assist in 21'
- 18' opener worth +0.6 FN xPts
A narrow lead that broke open late on
Lucas Höler's goal in the 18th minute put Freiburg ahead, and the visitors held that advantage for a long time before three goals in ten minutes from the 71st settled it. Fabian Schleusener pulled one back for Fortuna Düsseldorf in the 76th minute, but it did not change the direction of the match.
Matanović turned 21 minutes into a hat-trick of contributions
The opener was worth +0.6 FN xPts, the largest figure of the match, while the later goals came with the lead already established and were worth close to nothing. Igor Matanović, introduced as a substitute, scored twice and set up another in 21 minutes, and Freiburg finished with ten shots on target to two.
