BERLIN (AP) — Eintracht Frankfurt’s revival under new coach Oliver Glasner has continued with a 2-0 win at third-place Freiburg in the Bundesliga. It’s Freiburg’s first defeat in its third league game in its new stadium. First-half goals from Jesper Lindström and Filip Kostic gave Frankfurt its third successive win across all competitions. Glasner endured a difficult start to his tenure when Frankfurt was knocked out in the first round of the German Cup before going seven league games without a win. Frankfurt climbed to 11th in the 18-team division, ahead of Cologne on goal difference. Cologne drew 1-1 in the late game at Mainz, where its top-scorer Anthony Modeste was forced off with an injury.
