"Kane's unstoppable force!"
Friday's (20:30, DAZN) clash between Cologne and Bayern isn't just another game; it's Kane vs Cologne (30)!
Impressive numbers from Bayern's top-tier forward: 17 league goals (5 assists) across 11 games. Mind-blowing! And as FC gears up for his next astounding performance, the buzzing question lingers - who can halt this relentless England powerhouse?
Timo Hübers (27), undeniably, is the individual tasked with the challenge. He shares his thoughts on the England star: "He's unquestionably top-notch. Phenomenal finishing, particularly in the box. No one can single-handedly stop him," Hübers remarked, praising Kane.
So, what's Hübers' game plan? "There's no use attempting to shut him down for 90 minutes one-on-one, as was possible in the past," the central defender explained. "It's all about denying the passers the opportunity to feed him, blocking his favored play."
FC, currently at the bottom of the table, faces an uphill battle against the formidable Bayern.
Hübers disclosed, "You're taking on one of Europe's best teams, arguably even the world's. It's always a thrilling challenge to test yourself against such talent, although it's unlikely we'll snag three points here." Hübers, however, suggested a glimmer of hope: "While it may seem remote, picking up one to three points is possible. That's the aim." He added, "We need to outperform them in the skillsets they lack - sheer grit and tenacity."
So far, FC has managed to score a solitary victory this season (3:1 against Gladbach). Recent disappointments include stalemates against Augsburg and Bochum (1:1 each). Remarkably, Hübers remains optimistic about FC's chances of avoiding relegation.
"We still harbor unwavering belief. A quick glance at the table reveals how close the competition is. Nothing's set in stone. We don't require two consecutive wins to remain in contention. We're just a scratch away, and it can flip the script completely," said Hübers, referring to Augsburg's current 4-game unbeaten streak.
However, overcoming Bayern in Cologne's current form remains an ambitious dream. In forthcoming encounters against Darmstadt (December 1, 8.30 pm) and Mainz (December 10, 5.30 pm), prospects might improve. Fingers crossed...
