Events

Match Events

  • 0' In just a few seconds Eintracht-Stadion will turn into a battlefield for Eintracht Braunschweig and 1. FC Koln.
  • 1' Goal! Ermin Bicakcic scores his 11 goal in 407 matches.

  • 11' It’s high time Daniel Scherning made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 13' What an equalizer from Eric Martel!
  • 18' It looks like no one’s ball. Eintracht Braunschweig is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 23' 1. FC Koln is showing some good football. However, 1. FC Koln are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 28' Rayan Philippe has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 30' GOAL! Damion Downs scores on 30.
  • 34' The referee calls foul for Rayan Philippe. He receives a card.
  • 37' The referee shows Eintracht Braunschweig player a card on 37.
  • 41' Time for substitution for 1. FC Koln. Florian Kainz is replaced by Denis Huseinbasic.

  • 46' The referee calls foul for Leart Paqarada. He receives a card.
  • 51' 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.

  • 73' 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.
  • 74' Fabio Kaufmann has so much to prove this time. He replaces Johan Gomez on 74 minute.
