Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting has found his place.
Holder for the third time in a row in the Bundesliga, the former Paris Saint-Germain striker scored his first goal in Germany on Saturday.
Transferred to Bayern Munich last summer, the Cameroonian gave the Bavarians a perfect start to their match against Cologne, ultimately winning 5-1.
Like a real fox on the surfaces, Choupo-Moting took advantage of a superb cross from Leon Goretzka to get ahead of his opposite at the far post and place an unstoppable header.
Already scorer of two goals in the German Cup and decisive once in the Champions League, the former Parisian number 17 opened his league counter for his 13th appearance.

Replaced by Serge Gnabry after the hour mark, Choupo-Moting was able to attend the Bayern festival from the bench.
After a brace from Robert Lewandowski (33rd, 65th), Gnabry also scored two goals (82nd, 86th), including one on a pass from Frenchman Lucas Hernandez.
But the man in this game is called Leon Goretzka, decisive passer on three occasions, for three different scorers: Choupo-Moting, Lewandowski and Gnabry.
Bayern is rebounding in the best possible way after two games without a win in the league (3-3 against Bielefeld and defeat 2-1 in Frankfurt).
