SC Freiburg missed their first home win of the season. Breisgauer were separated in a draw with VfL Wolfsburg. Nils Petersen met once again for the sports club.
SC Freiburg have just lost a possible dream start to the Bundesliga. Despite an early lead and clear superiority against VfL Wolfsburg, manager Christian Streich’s team did not go past 1-1 (1: 1).
Three points and even the jump to the top of the table would have been possible in the heated meeting with a clear increase in chances. But due to lack of efficiency, Josip Brekalo (42nd) was able to make up for Nils Petersen’s (11th) lead at SC with one of the few opportunities from VfL.
Wolfsburg was left without a win against Freiburg for the fifth time in a row and could only muster little self-confidence for the final Europa League qualifying match on Thursday at AEK Athens. Two points from the first two games are not enough for your own requirements.
Freiburg with record purchases, Wolfsburg without goalkeeper
As a stabilizer, Streich built on Baptiste Santamaria’s record buyout in defensive midfield. On the other hand, Oliver Glasner voluntarily rotated to seven positions, and goalkeeper Koen Casteels with knee problems had to pass after warming up.
Freiburg took advantage of the lack of variety resulting from the changes in front of 3,200 spectators at the first corner. Petersen slipped off the short post and completed a tremendous under the bar. As a result, the SC acted very domineering despite the renewed sangria in the summer holidays, bought the guests with a deft midfield pressing from the edge.
Freiburg with little exploitation of opportunities
Grifo with a free kick (26th), again the German-Italian and Christian Günter (28th) with a double chance missed the best opportunities. After half an hour, VfL found its way to better play, but developed no risk of scoring for longer periods of possession. Out of nowhere, Brekalo fired a free kick from 17 meters, which Roland Sallai unfortunately faked with his hip to the wall.
After the break, both teams largely neutralized each other in midfield, the danger arising mainly from a distance. Yannick Gerhardt (48th) for VfL and Rolland Sallai (57th) as well as Christian Günter (61st) for SC narrowly missed the first goal. After an hour, Freiburg acted more convincingly. Santamaria (64 °) only hit the post, Lucas Höler (90 ° + 2) also missed a great opportunity.
“I’m satisfied, but not with the result. Because of the chances we have of scoring at least a second goal,” Freiburg coach Christian Streich said after the match. His counterpart Oliver Glasner seemed relieved after the final whistle: “I am very happy with today’s point and very satisfied with the way the team fought for it. We had big problems for 20 or 25 minutes in the second half, so Freiburg pressed a lot. It has. “
