Bolin scores three in two friendlies as Gladbach call him "Svensk Houdini"

Hugo Bolin has hit the ground running at Borussia Mönchengladbach, scoring three goals in two preseason friendlies since his loan from Malmö FF was made permanent earlier this year (1). The German club have already given the Swedish winger a nickname: "Svensk Houdini." Bolin's quick start stands in contrast to Malmö's current struggles, your team sits eighth in Allsvenskan after a 2–1 home defeat to Elfsborg on Sunday, their first loss under new manager Gaute Helstrup. The red card to young defender Malte Frejd Pålsson in that match only deepened the frustration.
