On Friday evening, the 30th round of the "Bundesliga" started, which was initiated by a victory by the "Freiburg" team, who defeated the "Monchengladbach" footballers at home by a minimum score of 1:0. In the first half, the visitors were more active, even scoring a goal, but it was disallowed due to offside. In the 58th minute, "Freiburg" took the lead, successfully converting a penalty kick, scored by Nils Petersen. Just ten minutes later, the situation for "Gladbach" became unfavorable, as Alassane Plea was sent off for a second yellow card after a very questionable referee decision. In the remaining time, the visitors failed to equalize the score, and "Freiburg" added important three points to their tally. "Freiburg" continues to hold real chances to compete for the sixth place, which would open the way to the Europa League tournament. "Gladbach" somewhat complicated their situation in the fight for a place in the Champions League after this defeat.
