Simons Stars as Leipzig Crush Cologne to Climb into Top 4
In a blistering display of attacking prowess, RB Leipzig dismantled a hapless Cologne side 5-1 on Friday night to vault into the Bundesliga’s coveted top four positions. The architect of this resounding victory? None other than the mercurial Dutch midfielder Xavi Simons, who orchestrated proceedings with a goal and an assist to continue his sensational debut campaign in German football.
Simons opened the scoring in the 15th minute, applying the final touch to a slick passing move involving Dani Olmo and Benjamin Sesko.
