BERLIN (AP) - Nathan Ngoumou scored late for Borussia Monchengladbach to beat Hoffenheim 2-1 in the Bundesliga on Saturday and bounce back from its loss at Borussia Dortmund.
The French midfielder was left unmarked by the Hoffenheim defense to tuck away Luca Netz's cross in the 80th minute.
Alassane Plea fired Gladbach ahead from the penalty spot in the 58th before Wout Weghorst equalized two minutes later.
But the visitors were unable to muster a response to Ngoumou's late goal as they slumped to their first away defeat.
