Noah Atubolu rues late error as Freiburg suffer Braga defeat

Noah Atubolu went from Freiburg’s hero to the player who cost them as a stoppage-time error was punished by substitute Mario Dorgeles in Braga. He had earlier denied ex-Bundesliga forward Rodrigo Zalazar from the spot, preventing the hosts from restoring their lead before half-time.

"The problem was that I didn't see the ball. I think it was Philipp Lienhart who was almost in front of me or next to me," he said to RTL after the game.

He had parried Vítor Carvalho’s weak effort, only for the rebound to fall kindly to the 21-year-old, who converted.

"We didn't defend well in the few moments that we were punished. We can do that better, and we have to do better," said Freiburg coach Julian Schuster.

Braga take a narrow lead into next week’s second leg.
