Undav Shines in Augsburg Victory

Two Goals and an Assist

In a dominant 5-2 win over Augsburg on Sunday, the 29-year-old striker notched two goals and provided an assist, bringing his total to 18 goals in the current Bundesliga season. This puts him just behind Bayern Munich’s Harry Kane, who leads the league with 31 goals.

Bouncing Back from Europa League Exit

For Undav, the standout of the match, the victory not only underscores his talent but also serves as a necessary recovery from the disappointing defeat his team faced on Thursday, leading to their exit from the Europa League. In a post-match interview with DAZN, he expressed his relief.

“We wanted to channel that anger,” Undav stated, referring to the previous loss against Porto. “I remained focused on my first goal. For my second, I told Chris Führich, who let me score a tap-in, that he better pass the ball. My assist for Ermedin Demirovic’s goal proves that I’m not just about myself.”

A Lighthearted Approach

In discussing his contributions, Undav maintained a playful attitude. His humor might not be immediately recognizable to those unfamiliar with the German forward, as he has become known as the “clown prince” of German football since returning to the country in 2023.

Ambitious and Team-Oriented

Undav’s night wasn’t over just yet.

“I’m still going to catch up to [Harry] Kane!” he joked. “But it shows I’m not greedy. Other players might have gone for a hat trick, but the team’s success is what matters most. What’s better than setting up a teammate for a score?”

In closing, he reflected on his upcoming international commitments, noting, “When I play, I aim to excel and contribute goals.” He added, “I hope to feature, but it’s up to the national team coach to make that decision.”
