Dortmund edges past Freiburg 2-1, Adeyemi's winner maintains top-three dominance.
Updated:2025-11-24 08:33 Views:160Dortmund have secured their place in the Bundesliga top three with a hard-fought victory over Freiburg on Saturday evening. The match ended 2-1 to the home side, as Dortmund came out on top thanks to a late winner from Julian Weigl.
The game was a closely contested affair throughout, with both sides creating chances but failing to break down the other's defense. However, it was Dortmund who eventually broke through in the second half, with a well-taken goal from Julian Weigl giving them a 2-1 lead.
Freiburg looked set to earn a point at the start of the second half, when they were awarded a penalty for handball. But goalkeeper Robert Gruener saved the spot-kick and Freiburg were unable to find an equalizer.
Despite being behind, Dortmund showed their resilience and dug deep to secure the win. They were also able to maintain their top-three position in the table, which means that they will be playing against the bottom two teams in the final weeks of the season.
Adeyemi's late goal was the difference between the two sides, as he scored the only goal of the match to give his team all three points. He has been in excellent form this season and has become a key player for Dortmund.
Overall, Dortmund's win is a huge boost for their title hopes. With just six games remaining in the season, they need to continue to perform well if they want to secure the title. But with a strong squad and a solid manager like Lucien Favre, there is no reason why they can't do so.
