Maza, Schick help Leverkusen beat Freiburg

Bayer Leverkusen secured a 2-1 victory over in-form Freiburg in a Bundesliga match held in Leverkusen on Sunday. The win came after Leverkusen suffered a surprise defeat to promoted Elversberg in the opening game of the season. The match saw Ibrahim Maza and Patrik Schick assisting each other, with the latter scoring in the 14th minute to become the first Leverkusen player to score in each of the first six matches of the Bundesliga season.

Freiburg, currently the top team in the Bundesliga, played the match at Leverkusen under the supervision of Germany coach Jurgen Klopp. In the initial stages, Freiburg took the lead with a goal from Derry Scherhant, assisted by Philipp Treu. However, Schick equalized five minutes later with a well-executed pass to Maza. Leverkusen extended their lead in the second half, with Maza scoring in the 75th minute before Schick sealed the win with a controlled shot in the 84th minute.
