The price is only rising for him: Benjamin Šeško, despite coming off the bench, scored in his sixth consecutive match, as Leipzig concluded their home season with a draw

RB Leipzig for the last time this season at the Red Bull Arena, and Benjamin Šeško altogether? The former holds true, but as for the latter, we’ll still have to wait a bit longer, especially after the Slovenian representative’s outstanding performance, scoring in his sixth consecutive match, despite entering the game from the bench this time, as he wasn’t fully fit due to a slight illness he caught during the week.
Without Šeško in the starting lineup, the Red Bulls didn’t fare well, finding themselves trailing ten minutes before the end of the first half, after an unlucky own goal by Nicolas Seiwald.
Down at halftime, the home coach Marco Rose reacted, immediately sending Šeško into the game upon returning from the locker room, and he repaid the faith about fifteen minutes later with a magnificent volley, clocked at 105 km/h, leaving the visiting goalkeeper Michael Zetterer no chance and climbing to sixth place on the Bundesliga top scorers’ list.
Moments later, Kevin Kampl also got his chance, receiving slightly more playing time than usual, but there were no changes on the scoreboard until the end.
RB Leipzig will play their last match of the season next Saturday when they visit Eintracht Frankfurt.
