Bayern might end up losing this game after a mix up during a substitution meant that for 17 seconds they actually had 12 players on the pitch.
Bayern's bench gave the wrong shirt number to the fourth official when making a double substitution meaning 2 players came on and only 1 went off. Coman was due to come off but the member of the Bayern coaching staff gave the fourth official his old squad number so he didn't realise he was being subbed. The fourth officially didn't check the numbers on the paperwork either to spot the error before the sub was made.
For the result to be changed Freiburg need to appeal it's expected they won't they are taking it as a mistake that had little impact on the result so don't want to make a big fuss about it even though 3 points would put them level on points with Leipzig in 4th spot.
