Match

The wait goes on for SC Freiburg

7 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Player ratings

Lucas Höler runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 27. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

Tempers go at SC Freiburg

Maximilian Eggestein was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Match

6 unbeaten for SC Freiburg

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 6 matches without defeat is a foundation SC Freiburg did not have in the autumn.

Match

The goals have deserted SC Freiburg

3 matches, no goals, and a training ground that has tried everything. It will end — droughts always do — but nobody at SC Freiburg can tell you which week it ends in.

Squad

A promise honoured for Eliesse Ben Seghir

It is not much of a headline and it is the reason players believe the next promise. SC Freiburg told Eliesse Ben Seghir something would happen and then it happened, which in this industry passes for remarkable.

Squad

Words at SC Freiburg training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Christian Günter is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Match

SC Freiburg draw a blank against Hamburger SV

The crowd waited for a goal that never came. Hamburger SV defended in numbers and left with what they came for, and the two sides could be playing still without troubling a scorer.

Squad

Anthony Jung left out for tactical reasons at SC Freiburg

The shape wanted a different profile against this opponent, which is a real football answer and no comfort at all to the man it is about. He did nothing wrong and he did not play.

Match

4 matches without a win for SC Freiburg

The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around SC Freiburg are no longer polite ones.

Squad

Tempers go at SC Freiburg

Lukas Kübler was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Igor Matanović

At 23 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Squad

Christian Günter falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Player ratings

Igor Matanović was the difference for SC Freiburg

Marked 7.70. Ask anyone leaving the ground what settled it and you will get one name, which is the only award that has ever really counted.

Match

SC Freiburg share the spoils with TSG Hoffenheim

A 1‑1 draw with TSG Hoffenheim leaves the dressing room somewhere between relief and regret.

Match

Derry Scherhant breaks Werder Bremen hearts

Some goals win a match and some take one off somebody else. Derry Scherhant scored in the 88th minute, Werder Bremen had already begun thinking about the journey home, and SC Freiburg took the lot.

Market

David Schopper hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what SC Freiburg can pretend not to have heard.

Squad

Tempers go at SC Freiburg

Lukas Kübler was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

The terraces

SC Freiburg supporters have found a favourite in Derry Scherhant

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 23-year-old it feels ownership of. Derry Scherhant has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Match

SC Freiburg see off Werder Bremen

Three points for SC Freiburg, 1‑0 the final word against Werder Bremen in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Player ratings

Derry Scherhant in the eights

A performance of 8.00 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Squad

Christian Günter falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Lucas Höler

Successful dribbles: 15. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Market

No place for Maximilian Philipp in the plan

“The manager did not use many words, and he did not need to.” Maximilian Philipp has his answer from SC Freiburg; what he does with it is the next window’s story.
