Keisuke Goto scored twice as SC Freiburg booked their place in the last 16 of the DFB-Pokal with a 3-2 win over Wolfsburg, according to the club's official website. The Japanese forward came off the bench to equalise with a header in the 75th minute from a corner by Grifo, then chipped the Wolfsburg keeper in added time to settle it.
Freiburg had led early through Igor Matanovic in the 6th minute, but Kento Shiogai struck twice for the visitors, in the 8th and 43rd minutes, to turn the game around before half-time. A penalty was overturned after a VAR review and a GĂŒnter goal was ruled out for offside, keeping the tie tense until the end.
Coach Julian Schuster said afterwards that the substitutes had made the difference and that his bench was always ready.
