While they trailed and could have lost it in stoppage time, Leipzig will be frustrated to take just a point. They are four points behind Bayern, but the leaders now have a game in hand. Leipzig play Mainz next, while Freiburg host Werder Bremen.
There were no fans at Red Bull Arena to see it, but we were treated to a thriller on the Bundesliga's return. Freiburg led entirely against the run of play through Gulde, with Leipzig taking until the 77th minute to equalise. Poulsen finally scored after he and his team-mates had passed up a number of opportunities.
