Title: FC Köln secures crucial win over SC Freiburg, Modeste's late goal lifts team out of relegation zone

FC Köln secured their first victory in the Bundesliga since October 29th against SC Freiburg on Sunday evening. The match was highly anticipated as both teams were fighting for survival in the league table.

In the opening stages, both teams struggled to find the back of the net. However, FC Köln managed to break the deadlock with a powerful shot from goalkeeper David Alaba. Despite being heavily downplayed by their opponents, FC Köln continued to press and create opportunities.

The momentum shifted when Christian Pogba scored a brilliant strike into the bottom corner of the penalty area after a long-range drive from the right wing. The goal proved decisive for FC Köln, who now have five points ahead of SC Freiburg, securing their crucial win.

Modeste's late goal was instrumental in lifting FC Köln out of the relegation zone. With just two games left to play, they had every chance to secure promotion to the top flight of German football. Modeste's goal, which came just moments after his side had already lost the game, showcased his exceptional finishing ability.

However, the victory was not without its challenges. The team faced a difficult task in the next round, as they will face SC Aachen at home on Tuesday night. They will need to perform well if they want to keep their hopes alive for promotion.

Overall, the victory over SC Freiburg is a positive development for FC Köln. It shows that they have the talent and determination to compete at the highest level of football. With the team's performance under the leadership of manager Michael Riedel, there is no reason why they cannot achieve success this season.
