Fabian Reese's Scoring Surge Lifts Hertha BSC in Relegation Fight

After returning from a long injury, Reese has scored five goals in three matches, boosting Hertha's hopes under new coach Stefan Leitl.

Fabian Reese, recovering from a nine-month injury break, estimates he is currently at 85% of his performance capacity.
Reese has scored six goals in six games since his February return, including five in the last three matches, solidifying his role as a key player.
Under new coach Stefan Leitl, Reese has adapted to playing as a central striker, a position he describes as secondary but effective for his current form.
Hertha BSC has secured two consecutive wins, reducing relegation concerns in a challenging season marked by financial and performance struggles.
Coach Leitl credits Reese's reduced defensive responsibilities in his new role for conserving energy and enhancing his offensive impact.
