Suzuki!
Freiburg are two goals in front, and unless Union completely change their style of play, that might well be that! Scherhant wins the ball back and feeds Suzuki, who lifts over Rønnow.
Goal probability 
Goal probability
Goal probability determines the likelihood that the ball will land in the goal from every position on the pitch. The value is based on large amounts of data from previous years; factors such as shot angle, distance to goal and opponent pressure - as well as mathematical models.
Distance to Goal
Distance to Goal
The distance to goal is measured at the time of the shot - from the position of the ball to the center of the goal.

Brilliant again
Rønnow again makes a crucial intervention, tipping Matanović's header from close range around the post for a corner.

Great stop!
The best chance of the game so far! Suzuki receives the ball in the box, and only a fantastic save from Rønnow prevents it from nestling in the bottom corner.
34'
Save
A comfortable stop for Rønnow from Scherhant's curling free-kick.

Still Freiburg with the ball
Union are defending well at the moment, though, even if they can't get forward themselves.

Struggling
Union are currently unable to make any kind of impact in the final third. They have to find a way to cause some problems, or this will be a long afternoon.

Scherhant denied
The winger cuts in from the left and fires a low attempt towards goal. Rønnow, though, is able to gather.

Freiburg with the ball
The hosts have seen the majority of possession so far and have swung a couple of dangerous balls into the box, but Union are standing firm just now.
6'
Over
Eggestein tries his luck from distance after a couple of Freiburg shots are blocked, but he can't keep his effort down.

Early booking
Matanović goes into the book for a high boot. He will have to be careful for the game's remainder.
