Monchengladbach see off Freiburg 4-2 to remain atop Bundesliga standings

A resilient Freiburg showed vital signs at the hour mark after Christian Gunter nodded home Lucas Holer's cross into the box. Holer almost shocked Monchengladbach with the equalizer but Ramy Bensebaini cleared the effort off the goal line.

Monchengladbach broke Freiburg's resistance though in the 71st minute when Embolo forced a turnover to wrap up his brace and all three points on home soil.
