Continuation of the 13th day of the Bundesliga. On the pitch of the PreZero Arena, Hoffenheim, in the soft underbelly of the Championship, hosted Friborg, at the gates of the European places. The match was not very lively in the first half. Before returning to the locker room, Hoffenheim defender Valentin Gendrey missed a great opportunity (44th). Finding space, he unleashed a powerful shot from distance, but the goalkeeper blocked brilliantly.

At the hour mark, Matthias Ginter broke the deadlock, scoring the first goal of the match (68th, 0-1) with a heavy strike. But the locals reacted quickly thanks to Tom Bischof, who got the score back in the 73rd minute of play (1-1). This result allows Friborg to come within a small point of the European places. The club is currently 7th with 21 points. For its part, Hoffenheim stagnates in 14th place.
