Bayern Munich, in trouble for playing with 12 players – International Soccer – Sports

Bayern Munich won 4-1 on Saturday in Freiburg and returns the pressure to Borussia Dortmund, provisionally to nine points and forced to win at home against Leipzig to reduce the distance at the end of the 28th day of the Bundesliga.

After a goalless first half, Leon Goretzka (58′), Serge Gnabry (73′), Kingsley Coman (82′) and Marcel Sabitzer (90+6′), scored the goals of the win, although Freiburg came to tie the game thanks to Nils Petersen (1-1, 63′).

The mistake that could cost Bayern points

However, the Bundesliga leader could be in trouble due to a technical error: when the game was 1-3, the team managed to play for a while with 12 players, something that the central referee of the game did not notice.

After the claims of the Freiburg players and the announcement of the VAR, the judge stopped the match, made the remaining Bayern player leave and resumed with a dropped ball.
