LEIPZIG FREE KICK
Forsberg delivers a free kick from deep into the area, but it's well defended by Freiburg.

FREIBURG IN CONTROL

SPECULATIVE EFFORT
Orban picks up the ball from thirty yards and strikes at goal. The low strike is saved easily by the Freiburg keeper.

LEIPZIG CLEAR THEIR LINES

OFF THE LINE!
End to end stuff. Schlotterbeck, who's playing his last game for Freiburg, clears the ball off the line after Nkunku's instinctive close range shot hit the keeper and almost trickled into the goal.
