FC Köln secured a crucial win over SC Freiburg in the Bundesliga on Sunday, securing their place in the top flight and avoiding relegation to the third tier.

The match was a nail-biter as both teams were in contention for the title. FC Köln had won three of their last four games but were still just two points behind SC Freiburg in the table. However, in the dying moments of the game, Modeste's late strike gave them the upper hand.

Modeste's goal was a brilliant individual effort, scoring with his left foot from a corner. The ball was flicked into the box by a corner kick, where it found its way through the hands of the defenders and into the back of the net. It was a stunning display of skill and determination from the player who has been key to FC Köln's success this season.

However, the victory was not enough to lift FC Köln out of the relegation zone. They will need to bounce back against Eintracht Frankfurt next weekend, which is one of the clubs they currently face in the Bundesliga. But with Modeste's goal and the rest of the team's performances, it looks like FC Köln have a bright future ahead of them.
