Events
Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds Allianz Arena will turn into a battlefield for FC Bayern München and 1. FC Koln.
- 5' 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.
- 10' FC Bayern Munchen is taking the lead after the goal scored by Harry Kane on 10.
- 13' What an equalizer from Harry Kane!
- 18' GOAL! Said El Mala scores on 18.
- 22' What a strike from Tom Bischof! The score is 0-4.
- 27' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 32' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jonathan Tah made 163 appearances and scored 18 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 34' It’s a booking for 1. FC Koln player. Joel Schmied gets a card.
- 37' Konrad Laimer was booked on 37.
- 42' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 47' 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.
- 52' Jakub Kaminski needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 57' Supporters expect more eagerness from Marvin Schwabe, as he is very good at scoring at Allianz Arena with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 62' 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 Dayot Upamecano suffering a number of foals already.
- 67' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 69' What a strike from Harry Kane! The score is 0-5.
- 74' 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.
- 79' 1. FC Koln is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 83' Goal! Nicolas Jackson scores his 42 goal in 407 matches.
- 88' FC Bayern München looks like a favorite considering 2 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker Harry Kane scoring 3 goals.
