Bayer Leverkusen went goal-crazy as they beat newly-promoted Freiburg 5-0 at the Badenova Stadion.
The Werkself scored the first goal after 35 minutes with Stefan Kiessling scoring his third goal of the season. Freiburg had their chances, but it was Bayer, who took theirs first. A great pass from Simon Rolfes went to Kiessling, and the German striker took a first-time shot which left the keeper no chance.
The visitors added a second two minutes into the second-half through Tranquillo Barnetta. Freiburg were too passive at the back and the Swiss midfielder was given plenty of time to fire the ball into right-hand corner.
2-0 became 3-0 after 69 minutes when summer signing Eren Derdiyok fired in a direct free-kick from 18 metres out. The ball was stoppable and Freiburg keeper Salz should have done better.
Six minutes later and a fourth goal was added to Leverkusen’s tally with Barnetta grabbing his second of the game. Krnas lost the ball on the edge of his own area to the Swiss international. He didn’t need a second invitation fired a precise shot into the back of the net.
The final nail in the coffin was hammered in six minutes from time with Eren Derdiyok adding his second of the game. A free-kick from Toni Kroos was headed on by Simon Rolfes and Derdiyok was on hand to score while fully unmarked.
