BERLIN, Dec. 7 -- Already eliminated Hoffenheim secured one point following a 1-1 against Ludogrets meanwhile Berlin craved out a futile 1-1 over Oestersund at last round of Europa League's group stage.

Meanwhile Hoffenheim had not a chance to advance into the knockout stages, Ludogrets needed just a draw from Group C to qualify for the next round.

However, things did not went in favour of Ludogrets as Hoffenheim grabbed the lead with 25 minutes played through Philipp Ochs, who marked his first ever goal in the Europa League from eight meters following a through ball from Robin Hack.

The Bulgarian visitors responded after the restart and marked the needed equalizer as Marcelinho's pass into path allowed Wanderson to drill the ball past Hoffenheim goalkeeper Gregor Kobel in the 62nd minute.

Hoffenheim dictated the pace but Ludogrets stood firm and protected their 1-1 draw, despite losing substitute Claudiu Keseru to a straight red card in the closing period.

With the result, Ludogorets complete Group C on the second place, behind leaders SC Braga and followed by Istanbul Basaksehir and Hoffenheim.

Elsewhere, Hertha Berlin can no longer qualify for the next round but still they rounded off their Europa League campaign with a 1-1 draw against Group J runner-up Oestersund.
