SC Freiburg earned a valuable point with a 2-2 draw away to Eintracht Frankfurt in the Bundesliga on Saturday, 19 September 2026. The match, which featured six current international players, saw Christian Streich's side demonstrate resilience by fighting back from a deficit.
Florian Naß summarised the encounter: „Im Bundesliga-Duell zwischen dem SC Freiburg und Eintracht Frankfurt treffen gleich sechs Nationalspieler aufeinander. Am Ende müssen sich alle mit einem Unentschieden begnügen.“
The visitors from Breisgau fell behind early. Younes Ebnoutalib put Frankfurt ahead in the 10th minute. Freiburg refused to be discouraged. Derry Lionel Scherhant equalised in the 34th minute, before Jonathan Burkardt put Frankfurt back in front just two minutes later. After the break, Yuito Suzuki scored the second equaliser in the 48th minute for the final 2-2 scoreline. Suzuki is now the team's top scorer this season with four goals.
With the point, SC Freiburg maintains third place in the Bundesliga table with 10 points from four matches. The team is now just two points behind leaders Borussia Dortmund and remains unbeaten this season. Their current form of four wins and a draw from the last five competitive games is impressive. Ahead of the next match against FC Schalke 04 on 10 October, the squad can recover during the international break. Florent Muslija remains sidelined through injury, with his return date still unclear.
The focus now shifts to preparing for the home game against Schalke. A glance at the standings shows every point is precious in a tight title race.
