Events

Match Events

  • 0' It’s Showtime! The match between 1. FC Koln and 1. FC Magdeburg is underway.
  • 5' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both 1. FC Koln and 1. FC Magdeburg are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 10' It’s high time Christian Titz made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 15' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 18' Dejan Ljubicic picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 23' It is a cagey affair so far. 1. FC Koln in their 4-2-2-2 trying to find a way past 1. FC Magdeburg's compact 3-4-2-1.
  • 27' Andi Hoti is having his name booked by the referee on 27.
  • 29' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Leart Paqarada on 29 minutes.
  • 34' It looks surprising 1. FC Magdeburg does not make any changes. Silas Gnaka has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 39' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Xavier Amaechi suffering a number of foals already.
  • 44' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering 1. FC Koln that had 405 games and scored 355 goals.
  • 46' Alexander Nollenberger is ready to make an impact after coming on for Baris Atik at the 46 minute mark.
  • 49' Brilliant from the forward! Damion Downs makes it 1-0 with a superb finish on 49.
  • 54' 1. FC Magdeburg are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 58' A meaty challenge results in booking for Eric Martel on 58.
  • 60' Connor Krempicki is having his name booked by the referee on 60.
  • 63' Connor Krempicki makes way for Abu-Bekir Omer El-Zein at the 63 minute mark. A tactical switch from 1. FC Magdeburg.
  • 64' The whistle greets Xavier Amaechi as he departs to be replaced by Livan Burcu.
  • 66' What a strike from Falko Michel! The score is 1-1.
  • 69' It is a substitution in 1. FC Koln team. Jan Thielmann is replaced by Rasmus Carstensen on 69 minute.
  • 74' 1. FC Koln currently sit 6 in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 76' The whistle greets Damion Downs as he departs to be replaced by Sargis Adamyan.
  • 80' Rasmus Carstensen has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 80.
  • 81' A meaty challenge results in booking for Gerhard Struber on 81.
  • 83' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Jean Hugonet makes it 1-2.
  • 88' The 1. FC Koln manager makes a substitution. Julian Pauli departs to be replaced by Steffen Tigges.
  • 90' Tobias Muller gets the nod from 1. FC Magdeburg. He replaces Martijn Kaars and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 1-2 the final result. 1. FC Koln will be bitterly disappointed.
