Events

Match Events

0' Temperatures are rising at RheinEnergieSTADION as 1. FC Koln face off against TSG 1899 Hoffenheim in what promises to be a fascinating contest.
1' Magnificent from Andrej Kramaric! That is 122 goals in 407 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
6' Florian Kainz has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 34 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
11' Anton Stach has been relatively quiet despite scoring 7 goals in his last 313 appearances.
16' It looks surprising 1. FC Koln does not make any changes. Julian Chabot has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.

45' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Julian Chabot on 45 minutes.
50' It is a cagey affair so far. 1. FC Koln in their 4-2-3-1 trying to find a way past TSG 1899 Hoffenheim's compact 3-5-2.
52' A goal from the Germany international Maximilian Beier! He fires home on 52 to make it 0-3!
57' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Timo Hubers made 291 appearances and scored 15 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

61' GOAL! Davie Selke scores on 61.

84' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both 1. FC Koln and TSG 1899 Hoffenheim are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
