Atubolu: ‘I Didn’t See the Shot’ as Braga Snatch Late Europa League Win

Noah Atubolu went from hero to heartache in SC Freiburg’s 2-1 Europa League semi-final first leg against Sporting Braga. He kept Freiburg alive with a penalty save on Rodrigo Zalazar in stoppage time of the first half. That stop built on his record for consecutive spot-kick saves in the Bundesliga this season. But deep into added time, his view was blocked and he spilled a routine shot. Substitute Mario Dorgeles pounced to hand Braga a dramatic winner. Despite his painful error, the 23-year-old remains confident. He insists Freiburg still control the tie and hopes to bounce back in the second leg.
