Vitesse desperately needs points against Go Ahead – PSV and AZ in action at 8 p.m.

Bayern past Freiburg thanks to De Ligt

Matthijs de Ligt helped Bayern Munich to three points in the Bundesliga match against Freiburg. Thanks to a seething shot from distance by the Oranje international, they won 1-0, keeping the southern Germans in the lead.

Visiting Freiburg, Bayern was the dominant side without creating too many chances. Nevertheless, it did push Freiburg very far back. A goal for Thomas Tuchel’s new coach hung in the air for a long time.

The goal finally fell only half an hour before time, when De Ligt got some space, set up the ball and lashed out devastatingly. Goalkeeper Mark Flekken, also an Orange international, was completely defenseless.

Pursuer Borussia Dortmund also won, 2-1 at home to Union Berlin. A Dutchman scored there as well: Donyell Malen made the 1-0
