While Bayer Leverkusen had the opportunity to win the first German championship title in its history if they succeeded in front of their home crowd against Werder Bremen, another meeting counting for the 29th day of the Bundesliga was to follow between Darmstadt and Freiburg. Still in search of three points since the start of the calendar year, the promoted team once again bit the dust at home (0-1), a week after being swept away by Mainz, a remaining competitor.

Led following a goal from Doan in the first period (36th), Darmstadt stood out at the forefront without managing to equalize. Relegated 13 points from 15th place occupied by Bochum, Torsten Lieberknecht’s men have undoubtedly drawn a line on remaining. Swept by Leipzig last weekend, Friborg resumes its march forward and completely relaunches itself in the race for European places.
