Bayern had over 70 per cent possession and completed more than double the number of passes Freiburg managed in the first half, but Alexander Schwolow remained largely untested in the visitors' goal.  Lewandowski has scored 13 Bundesliga goals against Freiburg but failed to add to his tally in the 26th minute when he got his footing wrong while bearing down on goal and stabbed a tame effort at the goalkeeper from six yards.Referee Felix Zwayer denied Bayern a penalty after reviewing video footage of the ball striking Manuel Gulde's hand in the area before the hour mark. Kovac sent on Franck Ribery and Thomas Muller in an attempt to inject a spark to his team's attack, but it was Gnabry who made the difference, taking full advantage of the space afforded to him by Nicolas Hofler by drilling into the bottom-right corner. Bayern were unable to hold on for the win, though, as Holer stretched to connect with Christian Gunter's cross to deny Manuel Neuer a clean sheet in his 200th Bundesliga appearance for Bayern.</blockquote>
