Thomas Letsch didn’t want to blame anyone for the events that led to his Bochum team’s game against RB Leipzig beginning to fall apart. Letsch is a coach with a keen sense for special actions, so he simply said about the Saxons’ magnificent goal to make it 1-1: “Then you also have to say: the quality of Olmo – great goal.”
VfL was on its way to stealing points from the next Champions League contender after Munich, Stuttgart and Dortmund and was leading 1-0 when Dani Olmo did something that only a few players can do: received the ball halfway to the left of the penalty area , hook inside, powerful shot towards the corner, goal. The Bochum Ordets and Losilla tried in vain to throw themselves into the ball’s path; it was a hit that was almost impossible to defend. And a goal that gave hope. Because RB Leipzig is facing groundbreaking challenges in the midst of a changeable season and needs this kind of individual class.
