RB Leipzig disappointed again: coach Rose is under pressure!
Freiburg, Deutschland - rb Leipzig had to be satisfied with a goalless draw against SC Freiburg in the Bundesliga on Sunday.

The game in the Europapark Stadium watched 32,900 spectators, but the offensive efforts of Leipzig remained largely harmless.
Freiburg's strong defensive and goalless game

On the other hand, Freiburg's goalkeeper Noah Atubolu set up a club record by staying without conceding for 509 minutes. After the change of sides it remained low in the chance, the two goalkeepers were not seriously challenged, and the game ended without goals.
The challenge for Leipzig is growing because the gap to the upper table places will not be lower, and the upcoming games will be decisive for the season.
