Events

Match Events

  • 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Borussia Dortmund and 1. FC Koln has kicked off!
  • 5' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 10' 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 Florian Kainz suffering a number of foals already.
  • 11' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Benno Schmitz.
  • 16' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 21' Manuel Akanji has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 7 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 26' 1. FC Koln are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 31' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Timo Horn made 400 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 36' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 40' A stunning finish from Thorgan Hazard — that came from absolutely nowhere!
  • 45' Julian Brandt has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 1 goals to his name this season.
  • 50' Borussia Dortmund have won 804 goals from 523 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 51' Thomas Meunier has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 51.
  • 56' A meaty challenge results in booking for Timo Hubers on 56.
  • 58' Borussia Dortmund ring the changes. Thorgan Hazard has done his job and it is now time for Donyell Malen to step up.
  • 59' The crowd applauds Ondrej Duda as he leaves the pitch. Florian Kainz steps in for 1. FC Koln.
  • 64' Fresh legs for 1. FC Koln! Rafael Czichos comes on to replace Timo Hubers.
  • 64' Magnificent from Steffen Tigges! That is 14 goals in 45 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 69' Borussia Dortmund are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined 1. FC Koln backline.
  • 70' The Borussia Dortmund manager makes a substitution. Marius Wolf departs to be replaced by Felix Passlack.
  • 75' 1. FC Koln fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 80' 1. FC Koln 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.
  • 81' It is a substitution in 1. FC Koln team. Dejan Ljubicic is replaced by Louis Schaub on 81 minute.
  • 82' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Salih Ozcan on 82 minutes.
  • 87' The Borussia Dortmund bench stirs into life. Julian Brandt is withdrawn and Ansgar Knauff gets his opportunity.
  • 88' That is a Yellow card for Borussia Dortmund. Jude Bellingham will be fuming at that decision.
  • The final score is 2-0.
