Europa League: Freiburg Turn Braga Tie Into Historic Final Place
Europa League: SC Freiburg reached the Europa League final for the first time in the club's history after beating Sporting Braga 3-1 in the second leg of their semifinal to overturn a 2-1 first-leg deficit and set up a meeting with Aston Villa in Istanbul.
Julian Schuster's side advanced 4-3 on aggregate after the match was transformed almost immediately by Braga's red card. Mario Dorgeles, scorer of the Portuguese club's winner in the first leg, was dismissed in the sixth minute for a last-man foul on Niklas Beste, leaving the visitors to play almost the entire match with 10 men.
Freiburg turned that advantage into control. Vincenzo Grifo's cross from the left was not dealt with cleanly, and Lukas Kubler bundled the ball into the lower corner in the 18th minute to level the tie, reports Xinhua.
