THREE MINUTES ADDED ON!
Will the injury time provide some late drama in Freiburg?

SALLAI HAS A GO!
First shot on goal from the home side since the 28th minute comes from the substitute, forcing Rensing to dive across goal and parry the ball away.

TIME FOR A WINNER?
Both teams are still pushing for a winner here. Lukebakio's pace is being gambled on by Fortuna against the tired legs of Freiburg's defence, while Grifo is still working hard to create some magic at the other end.

HENNINGS DENIED!
Superb play from Fortuna as Stöger's pass to Bodzek is immediately flicked through to Hennings on goal, but his shot is matched by Schwolow with a fantastic save.
62'
STÖGER GOES CLOSE
The midfielder pulls the ball onto his left foot on the edge of the box and fires a shot at goal, but it's blocked behind with questions over a handball. VAR has a look, but no penalty is given.
60'
HOME SIDE PLAYING WELL DESPITE THE RED
Freiburg are enjoying good amounts of possession, despite being one man down now after Haberer's red card. Düssledorf have not had a chance on goal beyond Zimmermann's heroic run from deep. This game could still go either way.
52'
WHAT A GOAL THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN...
Zimmermann must have taken the ball 40 or 50 yards there, as the full-back powered towards the Freiburg goal. The defence continued to back off and so he took a shot at goal, which curled back towards the far post and went just inches wide in the end.
48'
SENT OFF!
Janik Haberer is shown a second yellow card, and therefore a red, after a foul on Bodzek.
Kick-off!
Half-time
45'
A HALF OF TWO HALVES
Freiburg dominating the opening with Grifo capping it off with a simple penalty. But from around the half hour mark, Fortuna began to kick into gear and stole the show with Kownacki's fantastic strike. Since then, the away side were on top with a few half chances coming their way before the break.
41'
COMPETITIVE TOWARDS THE BREAK
Fortuna have been the better side since bursting into this game with Kownacki's thunderbolt, but Freiburg are still pressing and working hard to win the ball back as high as possible. At the moment, though, Funkel's side have dealt well with the pressure.
31'
WHAT A GOAL!
Stunning strike for the 22-year-old Polish forward who takes a pass in his stride into the box on the left side. He has one aim in mind as he lashes a brilliant shot at goal which beats the hands of Schwolow and crashes over the line off the crossbar. Nothing was keeping that one out!
27'
GRIFO TAKES HIS TIME
The playmaker breaks into the Fortuna box but takes too much time to pick his spot to shoot at goal, and Zimmermann gets in position to make a crucial block.
19'
FREIBURG STAYING ON TOP
Grifo is the architect of all good things so far for Freiburg, who have shown their quality at home in the opening 20 minutes. No work yet for Schwolow at the other end of the pitch.
10'
ALMOST 2-0!
The home side come forward straight from kick-off again and it's Grifo who brings the ball into the box. His shot is blocked and the ball comes back to him on the right side. A dink back into the box is cleared, though, by the Fortuna defence.
10'
SIMPLE FROM THE SPOT
Grifo smashes home the penalty to give the home side the lead.

FREIBURG PENALTY!
Raman brings down Haberer in the box and Grifo is going to step up to take this...

UNDERWAY IN THE SUN!
A beautiful day in the Black Forrest, and hopefully some goals to follow...
Kick-off!
