Young Boys Eliminated From UCL Despite Ngamaleu’s Assist Against Atalanta

A bitter – sweet experience for Indomitable Lions winger, Moumi Ngamaleu as he had a hand in his team’s second goal, but at the end, had hopes of making the knock – out rounds of the Champions league, crushed!

It was the fifth game played to the depth by the Cameroonian, who now counts a goal and an assist in Europe’s elite competition.

Ngamaleu and co were eliminated from Champions League contention by Atalanta’s late leveler; three – all, but can still finish third which earns a place in the Europa League knockout playoffs in February. Young Boys next plays at Man United.

Atalanta held a 2-1 lead entering the 80th minute, before the Swiss champions stunned the visitors with two goals in four minutes including; Ngamaleu’s assist for the second, before a rifled shot by Silvan Hefti to go ahead for the first time.

The Italian side was heading for last place in the group until Luis Muriel struck with a free kick in the 88th minute to salvage a point.

Atalanta twice led with goals early in each half from two South Americans, Colombia forward Duván Zapata and Argentine defender José Luis Palomino, but all that ended in ruins.
