Futmo picks out five players who shined during Bundesliga matchday 25. Picks include players from Bayern Munich, Köln and Borussia Mönchengladbach.

Leon Goretzka: Bayern Munich 8 - 1 Mainz

Scoring two and grabbing two assists, Bayern's Leon Goretzka had an excellent game against Mainz and was one to remember for the German midfielder as Bayern Munich put eight past Mainz.

On top of this, he achieved a staggering 93% pass accuracy and made five tackles throughout the ninety minutes.

Harry Kane: Bayern Munich 8 - 1 Mainz

Harry Kane was superb once again as he got himself a hat-trick against Mainz. After a few disappointing performances by his high standards, Kane made sure he hit the target multiple times against a struggling Mainz.

A total of nine shots against the carnival side meant he was an ever-present problem. Adding to this, he hit the post early on before Leon Goretzka netted his goal.

Jamal Musiala: Bayern Munich 8 - 1 Mainz

Jamal Musiala once again proved why he is good value for a starting position alongside Florian Wirtz in Julian Nagelsmann's summer lineup for the Euros.

He managed two assists and a goal during the course of the tie and also was able to have a pass accuracy of 85%. He was one of Bayern's most clinical players as he required only three shots throughout the game for his goal.

Faride Alidou: Borussia Mönchengladbach 3 - 3 1. FC Köln

Köln were finally able to be clinical in a Bundesliga game. Faride Alidou was a huge part of this as he scored two goals within this Rheinderby matchup.

Despite Davie Selke only coming on late into the game, Alidou proved that Köln can find solutions for their goal problems elswhere.

Robin Hack:  Borussia Mönchengladbach 3 - 3 1. FC Köln

Robin Hack was the definition of a super sub on Saturday against the Billy Goats. At twenty-five-years-old, Hack managed three shots for Borussia Mönchengladbach and scored two of these.

A late chance for him was unable to be converted as he guided it just over the bar. Despite this, you cannot blame him for missing such an opportunity.
