Borussia Dortmund secured their place in the Bundesliga top three by defeating SC Freiburg at home on Saturday evening. The match ended in a thrilling finish as Borussia Dortmund won 2-1, thanks to a goal from Jadon Sancho.

The match was a classic example of the attacking style that Borussia Dortmund play. They started brightly and took the lead early on through a fine strike from Sancho. However, SC Freiburg fought back valiantly and equalized through a well-taken header from their captain, Stefan Finnbogason.

In the second half, it was clear that both teams were looking for an opportunity to win the game. Borussia Dortmund came close to taking the lead again when they had a penalty awarded against SC Freiburg. However, the referee waved off the spot-kick due to a handball by the defender.

Despite the setback, Borussia Dortmund refused to give up and continued to press forward. In the dying minutes of the match, they finally broke the deadlock through a brilliant goal from Jadon Sancho. The winger scored with a powerful shot from outside the box, leaving the opposition goalkeeper no chance.

With this victory, Borussia Dortmund moved up to third position in the table, just one point behind leaders Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig. It was a much-needed win for the team, who have struggled recently in the league.

SC Freiburg will be disappointed with the defeat, but they can take heart from the fact that they played well throughout the match. Next week, they will face Hoffenheim away from home, a match that could determine whether they remain in the top four or slip further down the table.

Overall, it was a thrilling match between two of Germany's top sides, and Borussia Dortmund emerged victorious. With their next match coming up against Hoffenheim, they will need to maintain their focus if they want to keep their hopes of a Champions League qualification alive.
