Champions League: Nkunku scores as RB Leipzig lose to Club Brugge

The 23-year-old put the Bundesliga side ahead, yet, they crumbled at home to the visiting Belgian top-flight outfit

Christopher Nkunku scored his fourth Champions League goal of the 2021-22 campaign as RB Leipzig suffered a 2-1 defeat to Club Brugge.

The former France youth international of Congolese origin has been in fine form for the Red Bulls since the start of the 2021-22 campaign.

Against the Blue Black, Nkunku gave Jesse Marsch’s men a fourth-minute lead – with his shot too powerful for Simon Mignolet to keep out. However, they surrendered their advantage as the Belgians secured a comeback victory.
