Niklas Süle scored the winning goal for Hoffenheim against Hertha Berlin on Friday night, and what a goal it was.
With Hoffenheim and man up and time creeping closer to the end, Süle saw an opening as he came up from the backline. He took a touch when he received the pass and then unleashed an absolute rocket.

The victory moves Hoffenheim one point behind RB Leipzig and two points above Borussia Dortmund (Both have a game in hand). More importantly, they are now eight points ahead of fifth place Hertha. That could be enough to secure them a spot in the Champions League next season.
