Matthias Ginter scored against his former club Borussia Mönchengladbach to help his current team Freiburg claim a 2-1 win in the Bundesliga on Sunday.
Ginter didn't celebrate after he broke the deadlock in the 38th, volleying it home after Gladbach's Kevin Diks inadvertently flicked a long throw to him.
They almost doubled their lead in the 63rd, as Niklas Beste was free at the back post after another throw-in. But he was denied from point-blank by goalkeeper Moritz Nicolas.
Goal number two, however, came in the 74th, after Gladbach lost the ball in midfield. Maximilian Eggestein's low cross was palmed by Nicolas into the path of Igor Matanovic, who tapped the ball into the empty net.
Gladbach had a goal ruled out in the 83rd and still pulled one back two minutes later through Haris Tabarovic, but despite late pressure couldn't find an equalizer.
Freiburg are seventh, three points from the European spots, while Gladbach are 14th, just three points from the relegation zone.
On Saturday, Bayern Munich extended their lead at the top of the Bundesliga table with a 3-2 win against Eintracht Frankfurt and thanks to Borussia Dortmund's 2-2 draw with RB Leipzig.
Bayern now have an eight-point advantage over Dortmund ahead of their clash next weekend.
