Sildillia overhead kick and double brace help Freiburg thrash Bremen

Kiliann Sildillia’s perfect overhead kick lit up Freiburg’s 5-0 Bundesliga home win over Werder Bremen on Friday, which sent the Black Forest side up to fourth. Sildillia’s acrobatics after a Vincenzo Grifo’s corner was flicked on gave the hosts a 15th-minute lead and it was soon 2-0 through Grifo’s curling free-kick into the bottom corner. It was redemption for the Italian after his “Panenka” penalty was saved in last weekend’s 1-0 win over St Pauli, Freiburg’s sixth missed spot-kick in a row.
