On such a good path to finishing the Bundesliga season undefeated, Leverkusen moved a little closer to their goal this Sunday. Opposed to Fribourg, as part of the 26th day of the Bundesliga, Xabi Alonso’s players won 3-2, despite some scares at the end of the match. The inevitable Florian Wirtz, already involved in 27 goals this season, broke the deadlock in the 2nd minute (0-1), before the Japanese Ritsu Doan equalized eight minutes later (1-1).

Adam Hlozek then gave Leverkusen the advantage (40th, 1-2), then Patrik Schick, already decisive midweek in the Europa League against Qarabag, hit the nail on the head (53rd, 1-3). At the end of the match, the reduction of the gap by Yannik Keital (79th, 2-3) proved insufficient. In the standings, Leverkusen is more than ever leader and has a comfortable cushion of 10 points ahead of Bayern Munich, eight days from the end. Friborg is 9th.
