Full-time: Leverkusen 5-1 Freiburg

A five star performance from Leverkusen in the second half. The hosts flew out of the gates after the restart, with Wirtz making amends for his first-half missed penalty. And then it was all about Schick - everything he touched seemed to end up in the back of the net. The Czech forward scored four, grabbing a 'perfect' hat-trick along the way. It looked as though Freiburg may have got back into the game with Grifo getting on the scoresheet not long after Wirtz, but Schick ensured Leverkusen's victory.

Off the bar again!

62'

Off the bar!

Wirtz and Tella combine well on the edge of the Freiburg box. Wirtz attempts a cross from the left, curling it towards the back post. His cross is a little too close to the goal, however, bouncing off the crossbar before being cleared by Freiburg.

Schick shoots

Frimpong crosses into Tella, who lays it off to Schick. He strikes with his left on the volley, but Atubolu makes a good save to deny him.

Grifo halves the defecit!

Freiburg press well as a team, with Ginter and Dōan winning the ball high up the pitch off Schick. They quickly work it to Grifo, who doesn't have much time or space to get a shot away, but still manages to poke home into the bottom right corner from the edge of the box with a clever finish.

Wide by Tella

Wirtz finds the wide man, who has a chance to stretch his legs and run at the Freiburg defence. He strikes powerfully with his left, but the ball flies wide to the left of the goal.

Wirtz makes it two!

A fantastic passing move from Leverkusen. Grimaldo plays it off the left and into the feet of Palacios, who quickly plays one between the lines and into the box for Wirtz. He feints with his left foot, cuts back onto his right, and dispatches powerfully into the roof of the net from the near post.

Quick restart from Freiburg

Could this be a statement of intent by the visitors? An intricate passing move culminates in Eggestein feeding a ball through for Dōan to chase, but his first touch lets him down and the ball goes behind for a goal-kick.

Leverkusen get the ball rolling again for the second half here. Neither side makes a change at half-time.

Half-time: Leverkusen 1-0 Freiburg

Leverkusen go into the break as deserved leaders. They have dominated possession and created a lot of chances, but they have missed plenty too. Atubolu has had a good game so far in the Freiburg goal, getting down well to save the penalty from Wirtz. Freiburg themselves haven't created as much, but have still been dangerous, hitting the crossbar early on, but Schick's chip just before the end of the half is all that separates the sides here.

Schick breaks the deadlock!

A lovely finish to a lovely Leverkusen team-goal. Wirtz spots Schick in space, sending him through down the middle. Under pressure from two defenders and with the keeper coming off his line, Schick remains calm and delicately lifts it over the keeper and into the net with real finesse.

No shot away

Wirtz creates a chance from off the left. He plays it to Schick in the middle, who can't get a shot away and lays it off for Tella, but the winger's first touch lets him down and he can't manage to get a shot off either.

Corner for Freiburg

Effort from Wirtz

Julian Schuster on facing Leverkusen

"The football they play has shaped football in Germany. When I look at our games against Bayern or Leipzig, there are definitely things we can take to compete against quality opposition. The difficulty is that that courage is sometimes taken from you during long spells of opposition pressure."

Xabi Alonso on Freiburg

"It'll be a hard game. They're having a very good season with new ideas from a new coach. They play well with the ball, are also dangerous from set pieces and very stable in terms of their performances. But we want to end this year with a good performance and a good result."
