The result at the Red Bull Arena on Sunday returned Leipzig to winning ways.

Ouedraogo had only just returned from a previous shoulder problem, and other injuries have also limited his availability since he joined Leipzig in 2024.

The 20-year-old has made 27 appearances for the club, scoring four goals and providing four assists.
