MANE!
The Senegal forward takes aim, but the ball hits a bump in the turf and completely throws him.
87'
TEL!
Sabitzer cushions a Gnabry cross into the path of Tel, who sends a half-volley over. Bayern have been brilliant today.

IT'S FIVE!
Ginter blocks Mane's path to goal, but only succeeds in poking the ball back to the edge of the box, where Sabitzer sweeps unerringly into the bottom corner.

STANISIC ON
Mazraoui's pulled something, but smiles as he goes off - so it can't be that bad. Young Stanisic is on.

CH-CH-CH-CHANGES
Seventeen-year-old Tel follows Sabitzer and Pavard onto the pitch. Sane's annoyed he didn't add a second goal to his tally, but it was another superb display by the Bayern No.10. Goretzka and De Ligt also get a breather. Höler's on for Freiburg as the visitors chase a measure of pride.

CHANCE!
Musiala sends Sane in on goal. He could go it alone, but elects to square a pass to Davies - blocked! If that had been on his left foot, the break would surely have ended differently.

Bayern lead, and lead comfortably at the break. Goals from Gnabry and Choupo-Moting have provided the rewards for a tasty 45 minutes of football from Julian Nagelsmann's side.

SANE MISS
Sane blooters an effort way off target. Probably worth an effort, but Sane will want to do a lot better next time he gets a look at goal.

Bayern build. Sane plays the most delicious of passes with the outside of his boot in for Choupo-Moting, who thumps home Bayern's second. The hosts are well in command at the Allianz Arena.

STILL BAYERN COME
Bayern are looking threatening every time they come forward now. Kimmich plays a tasty, looping pass in for Gnabry, who volleys across the face of goal. There's nobody there for the hosts.

BAYERN'S KLASSIKER MEMORIES
FREIBURG'S "NICE POSITION"
Freiburg are unbeaten in seven Bundesliga games, of which they have won four. It's just that sort of form that has the Black Forest side in second place in the standings going into Super Sunday. “It’s nice that we can travel to Munich in this position," coach Chrsitian Streich said. "[Bayern] aren’t above us for once and we hope that they won’t be after the game either,” he added.
