Events

Match Events

  • 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at RheinEnergieSTADION!
  • 5' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering 1. FC Koln that had 403 games and scored 353 goals.
  • 10' 1. FC Koln are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined SC Freiburg backline.
  • 15' The 26-year-old Yannik Keitel has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 20' Lucas Holer is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for 1. FC Koln so far.
  • 25' It looks like no one’s ball. 1. FC Koln is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 30' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 35' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 40' named a 4-2-3-1 earlier, and opted for a 3-4-2-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
  • 45' It is a cagey affair so far. 1. FC Koln in their 4-2-3-1 trying to find a way past SC Freiburg's compact 3-4-2-1.
  • 50' The energy levels are beginning to show. Timo Schultz might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 51' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Lukas Kubler on 51 minutes.
  • 56' 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 Ritsu Doan suffering a number of foals already.
  • 57' Another change for 1. FC Koln made on 57 minute. Julian Chabot leaves to be changed by Dominique Heintz.
  • 62' 1. FC Koln are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 67' It’s high time Christian Streich made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 68' 1. FC Koln ring the changes. Linton Maina has done his job and it is now time for Florian Kainz to step up.
  • 73' Max Finkgrafe has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 73.
  • 78' The SC Freiburg bench stirs into life. Roland Sallai is withdrawn and Maximilian Philipp gets his opportunity.
  • 83' The home supporters are growing impatient. 1. FC Koln must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 84' The supporters are chanting for Sargis Adamyan. He replaces Gian-Luca Waldschmidt on 84 minute.
  • 88' The SC Freiburg bench stirs into life. Michael Gregoritsch is withdrawn and Chikwubuike Adamu gets his opportunity.
  • will have plenty to reflect on. were simply the better side today.
