Tah sets Bundesliga passing mark, Köln among opponents

Jonathan Tah set a new Bundesliga passing benchmark in the season just concluded, completing 96% of his passes, the highest rate recorded since detailed data collection began in 2004/05.

Harry Kane and Michael Olise were among his teammates benefiting from that distribution. Your side had a front-row seat to Tah's metronomic season, facing him in a league meeting where that passing reliability was on full display.
