Match Events

  • 0' That's the starting whistle at RheinEnergieSTADION. Ninety minutes of football awaits between 1. FC Köln and 1. FSV Mainz 05.
  • 5' The 31-year-old Marvin Schwabe has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 10' It looks surprising 1. FC Köln does not make any changes. Jae-sung Lee has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 15' The energy levels are beginning to show. Steffen Baumgart might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 20' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both 1. FC Köln and 1. FSV Mainz 05 are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 25' 1. FSV Mainz 05 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.
  • 30' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 34' A change in the 1. FC Koln ranks — Julian Chabot exits the field as Luca Kilian enters on 34.
  • 39' 1. FC Köln started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 39.
  • 44' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 46' Leart Paqarada has so much to prove this time. He replaces Dominique Heintz on 46 minute.
  • 50' Eric Martel has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 50.
  • 55' Rasmus Carstensen, a Denmark , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 58' Tom Krauss picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 61' Another substitution for 1. FSV Mainz 05 to replace Jonathan Burkardt by Jae-sung Lee on 61 minute.
  • 64' The supporters are chanting for Florian Dietz. He replaces Steffen Tigges on 64 minute.
  • 69' 1. FC Köln are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 74' Steffen Tigges has been relatively quiet despite scoring 14 goals in his last 41 appearances.
  • 75' 1. FC Koln make a change. Gian-Luca Waldschmidt trudges off to be replaced by Mark Uth on 75 minutes.
  • 76' The supporters are chanting for Marco Richter. He replaces Brajan Gruda on 76 minute.
  • 81' With 0 assists to his name this season, Matondo-Merveille Papela is clearly more than just a goal scorer for 1. FC Köln.
  • 83' A moment of madness from Dominik Kohr on 83 minutes earns him a Yellow card. 1. FSV Mainz 05 will be frustrated.
  • 84' The referee has no hesitation. Matondo-Merveille Papela is booked for 1. FSV Mainz 05 — Yellow card on 84.
  • 85' Controversy at the stadium! Mark Uth argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
  • 87' That is a Yellow card for 1. FSV Mainz 05. Silvan Widmer will be fuming at that decision.
