FC Köln secured their place in the Bundesliga next season with a hard-fought victory over VfL Bochum on Saturday.

The game was a tense affair, with both sides creating chances but unable to break down the opposition's defense. However, it was FC Köln who emerged victorious in the end, thanks to a late goal from Modeste.

Modeste's goal came just moments before half-time and gave FC Köln the lead they needed to secure all three points. The forward's effort was well-taken and saw him score his first goal of the season.

Despite the loss, VfL Bochum manager Peter Stöger praised his team's efforts and said that they had put up a good fight against a strong FC Köln side.

The result sees FC Köln move into third place in the table and ensure that they will be safe from relegation this season. It also gives them a chance to compete for European football next year.

Overall, it was a solid performance by FC Köln and a big win for Modeste and the rest of the squad. They now look ahead to the remainder of the season with confidence and determination.
