With his back to the goal, Lewandowski controlled a cross with his chest and fired past the Freiburg goalkeeper in stoppage time to rescue the three points for lackluster Bayern. “For us, it was a very hard game from start to finish, because Freiburg were good,” Bayern coach Carlo Ancelotti said. Freiburg came close to grabbing a late winner against the run of play, with Bayern goalkeeper Manuel Neuer tested repeatedly in the final minutes before the Pole rescued the champions with his last-gasp strike. Bayern are on 42 points, six ahead of second-placed RB Leipzig, who were yesterday to host Eintracht Frankfurt. Nice, bidding to win a fifth title, but first since 1959, leveled through Arnaud Souquet just after the half-hour mark.
