- 30' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 35' FC Bayern München is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 40' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering 1. FC Köln that had 408 games and scored 361 goals.
- 45' 1. FC Köln seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 50' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. 1. FC Köln needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 52' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Maxim Choupo-Moting.

- 75' FC Bayern München fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.

- 78' Time for substitution for 1. FC Koln. Luca Kilian is replaced by Gian-Luca Waldschmidt.
- 83' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 88' 1. FC Köln are deployed in a 4-2-3-1 today, looking to exploit space against FC Bayern München's 4-2-3-1 shape.
- Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 0-1 draw is a fair result on the day.
