Leverkusen host the Champions League favorites on Wednesday in the first leg of their last-16 tie but Saturday’s wild draw may hurt their chances of reaching next year’s competition.
The result leaves Leverkusen sixth, losing ground on top-four rivals Hoffenheim and RB Leipzig, who both won on Saturday.
Freiburg twice went ahead thanks to goals from Vincenzo Grifo and Yuito Suzuki but Leverkusen twice equalized through Christian Kofane and another superb free-kick from Alejandro Grimaldo.
