Freiburg 2-1 Borussia Mönchengladbach Goals: 1-0 Ginter 38’, 2-0 Matanović 74’, 2-1 Tabaković 85’ (assist: Stöger)
Freiburg entered this Matchday 23 fixture in impressive home form, having won all four of their matches at the Europa-Park Stadion since the winter break. The Black Forest club were also enjoying a nine-game unbeaten streak against Gladbach – their longest such run against any opponent.
For the visitors, the situation was far more concerning, with Eugen Polanski's side sitting just three points above the relegation zone after a run of six league matches without a win.
