DORTMUND, Germany (Reuters) - Borussia Dortmund crushed 10-man Freiburg 5-1 in the Bundesliga on Saturday, with forward Sebastien Haller on target for the first time since his return from cancer treatment, helping lift his side into third spot.

The Ruhr valley club, who face Chelsea in the Champions League Round of 16 on Feb. 15, was in superb form as they made it four wins out of four league games since the restart and move up to 37 points, as many as champions Bayern Munich, in second, who are in action at VfL Wolfsburg on Sunday.
