RB Leipzig confirm fan death following 4-0 victory over Freiburg

RB Leipzig guaranteed their place in the top four – and at least a spot in the Champions League qualifiers – with a 4-0 win over Freiburg at Red Bull Arena.

The result extended Leipzig’s run of consecutive victories to four and they have now won their last three home games without conceding a goal, ensuring league leaders Bayern Munich haven’t been able to sit comfortably in the closing stages of the season.

But the club has confirmed that a 56-year-old supporter sadly passed away after suffering a heart attack at today’s game.
