SC Freiburg missed their fifth penalty in a row in the Bundesliga on Friday night as they were held to a 0-0 draw away at Union Berlin.

Vincenzo Grifo, whose spot-kick was saved by Union goalkeeper Frederik Rønnow, was understandably disappointed after the match.

 

"It's very bitter and annoying because we could have picked up three points," Grifo told DAZN.

"I'm going to lie in bed tonight and still be annoyed. If it had gone in, it could have opened up the game."

It was Grifo's second penalty miss of the season, having also failed to convert against St. Pauli.

The 0-0 draw lifts Freiburg into fourth place, while Union remain seventh ahead of the weekend's remaining Bundesliga fixtures.
