Vote of the Week: Which is the best tackle of the season so far?
There's nothing quite like a last-ditch challenge to get the adrenaline pumping. bundesliga.com has compiled five of the very best so far in 2023/24, featuring Piero Hincapié and Mats Hummels. All you have to do is vote for your favourite...
Hincapié put in a remarkable challenge on Benjamin Šeško in a thrilling game between Bayer Leverkusen and RB Leipzig on Matchday 18. Leverkusen came from behind to win, but could not find a way through against Borussia Mönchengladbach, thanks, in part, to Florian Neuhaus' superb tackle to deny Amine Adli.
The Bundesliga leaders went on to beat Bayern Munich 3-0, and it might have been more but for Dayot Upamecano foiling Adli when through on Manuel Neuer's goal. Mats Hummels did help Borussia Dortmund prevent Xabi Alonso's team from taking all three points prior to the winter break, though. There's also a superb piece of defending from Mainz's Sepp van den Bergh to consider.
