BERLIN : RB Leipzig's first half of the season could have been better but the team is firmly in the hunt for a top four finish this season to secure Champions League football that is crucial for the club, Leipzig top scorer Lois Openda said on Wednesday.The 23-year-old has enjoyed a sensational first half of his maiden Bundesliga campaign, having scored 11 goals and delivered four assists."It's important to feel good and feel at home.
I know that I can, for sure, do more," Openda told reporters. "I want to be a top player, play for the best team in the world.
The move to Leipzig can help me to do that."Together with fellow new signing Xavi Simons, who has netted four times and added another seven assists, they have plugged the attacking gap that was initially left by the departures of Christopher Nkunku and Dominik Szoboszlai last summer and the injury of Dani Olmo earlier this season."Now we have our objectives.
The first part of the season was good but it could be better because we lost some games, missed some points," the Belgium international said."We wanted to be in the top four and three and we are still there.
