Bayern Munich beats Freiburg 3-1 to retake Bundesliga lead

Bayern Munich secured a 3-1 victory over SC Freiburg on Sunday at the Europa-Park Stadion, reclaiming the top spot in the Bundesliga.

Dayot Upamecano opened the scoring in the 17th minute, netting his second goal of the season after being supplied by Michael Olise, who also recorded an assist and later added his own goal.

Serge Gnabry contributed a third goal for the Bavarians, while Nathaniel Brown challenged Freiburg goalkeeper Mio Backhaus on two occasions.

The win preserved Bayern’s unbeaten start to the 2026‑27 season and brought them level on points with Borussia Dortmund.

Vincent Kompany was absent from the bench due to a recent illness, and assistant Aaron Danks oversaw the team from the sidelines.

Bayern will face Borussia Dortmund in the upcoming Klassiker on Saturday at 18:30.
