Myron Boadu silenced his critics with a sensational hat-trick in a dramatic 3-3 draw against RB Leipzig, proving his worth to his team and coach Dieter Hecking.
The 24-year-old forward, who recently faced public criticism from Hecking over his training performance, showcased his talent in a crucial performance that salvaged a point for the Bundesliga’s bottom team.
“He showed himself and all of us that we have a weapon up front that has been a bit lost so far,” Hecking remarked, expressing hope that Boadu’s newfound confidence will continue to shine.
The Dutch striker’s resurgence comes after a challenging period marked by a pubic bone infection that left him sidelined and struggling to regain form. “I thought that he wasn’t physically at Bundesliga level for a long time,” Hecking admitted, highlighting Boadu’s perseverance through adversity.
Looking ahead, Boadu is poised to make another impact in the team’s upcoming clash with Borussia Mönchengladbach, as Hecking hints at a potential starting spot for the revitalized striker.
