Wolfsburg, Germany - Two goals from Czech midfielder Petr Jiracek helped Wolfsburg to a 3-2 victory over Freiburg in the German Bundesliga Friday.
Freiburg twice came from behind before Jiracek struck a 61st-minute winner with a deflected shot from outside the area.
Jiracek in the fifth minute and Marcel Schaefer in the 14th had given Wolfsburg the lead, only for the visitors to level through Johannes Flum in the 12th and Daniel Caliguiri in the 38th.
The result moves Wolfsburg to eighth and leaves Freiburg bottom, level on points with Augsburg.
Leaders Borussia Dortmund play Bayer Leverkusen while Borussia Moenchengladbach take on Schalke Saturday in two of the top games of the weekend Bundesliga programme.
