Kramarić and the 17th strike

Andrej Kramarić is TSG's record goalscorer and has been an ever-present figure at Hoffenheim for years. And now the attacking player has achieved another remarkable record: in the game against VfL Bochum, the Croat scored against the only current Bundesliga club that he had not previously scored a goal against. However, the record against all previous league opponents has a small black mark.

235 appearances, 105 goals, 48 assists – Andrej Kramarić's numbers in the Bundesliga speak for themselves. VfL Bochum was the only blot on his statistical copybook, with the 32-year-old having previously failed to find the net the four times he has faced them. But Kramarić scored a goal against VfL in Friday evening's 3-1 victory. The goal means that the Croat has now scored against the current Bundesliga clubs that he has played against.

Andrej Kramarić took aim in the December issue of SPIELFELD – and now the final can has been knocked over.

 

TSG's record goalscorer has actually scored more than one goal against every current league opponent – except against Bochum and 1. FC Heidenheim, but he has previously faced the latter on only one occasion. His favourite foe Hertha BSC – against whom he has scored 12 goals in 14 appearances – are currently not in the division. Of all the teams in the top flight at present, BVB have conceded the most goals scored by Kramarić, who has found the net against Dortmund on nine previous occasions.

But the record is not completely flawless: Kramarić has faced 26 opponents in the Bundesliga, scoring against 25 of them. The Croat only failed to score in both matches against Greuther Fürth, although he did get a goal against Fürth in the DFB-Pokal. But with the club currently in fourth place in the 2. Bundesliga, there is hope that Andrej Kramarić can do something to remedy that next season.
