Rafael Santos Borré returned to score in the Bundesliga, the Colombian forward scored the 4-0 in the match between Eintracht Frankfurt vs. Leipzig and ended his 7-game drought. The attacker scored the ball on the right side of Gulácsi's goal and left him no chance. The last goal scored by the Colombian was in the Europa League, so the goal boosts his spirits in every way.
Santos Borré entered the field in the 74th minute to substitute Kolo when the match was in favor of the home team. Although the match was already resolved, the Colombian entered the field with the aim of making a difference, and he did. Remember that the attacker lost his starting position and is gradually making merits to be considered again.
The goal was the fourth for the team and added to the goals scored by Daichi Kamada, Sebastian Rode, and Lucas Silva Melo at 16', 22', and 67' respectively. This is the first official goal for the Colombian national team player in the 2022/2023 Bundesliga season and he hopes to regain the level shown in previous months.
