Constant siege
Cologne now want to win here and are playing better again. Nevertheless, they can't find a way through.

Injury time
Six minutes have been indicated.

A collector's item
Timo Hübers had gone the whole of last season without scoring a competitive goal for Cologne. For the first time since May 2023, he has scored again, back then he even scored twice in a 5-2 home win against Hertha in the Bundesliga. Does that mean he'll get a winner here?

That's bitter

Nearly 3-1!
Pinckert pops up on the right side of the penalty area and hits a crisp shot. Urbig has to stretch and just manages to claw the shot out of the top left corner!
62'
Game turned around!
What is going on here all of a sudden? Elversberg counter and make it 2-1! Feil plays a dream of a chipped pass into the path of Asllani. He lays it across to Schmahl to the right of the goal. He just has to tap it in - another goal by a substitute!
54'
The next chance!
Suddenly the hosts have a lot of space. A cross from the left lands at the feet of Feil, whose shot is just blocked by Paqarada!
Kick-off!

Schnellbacher shoots
Another chance for the home side. Schnellbacher is played through in the penalty area and gets a shot away quickly. It just goes wide of the left-hand post.

Goal drought ended
Denis Huseinbašić had not scored a single competitive goal Cologne throughout the whole of last season. For the first time since 12 May 2023 (and a 5-2 home win in the Bundesliga against Hertha), the 23-year-old Bosnian has finally scored again.
22'
Cologne hit the front
The ninth Cologne shot lands in the net! Ljubicic sends Martel down the right into the penalty area, he cuts it back low into the space, where Lemperle plays it on to Huseinbašić with an outstretched leg. He pulls the trigger from 18 metres out, and his low shot fizzes into the net.
15'
Maina!
The lively attacker plays a sharp one-two with Ljubicic on the right edge of the box and then shoots from a tight angle. Kristof makes a strong save!

Schnellbacher shoots
Gerezgiher has space on the left side and puts a low cross into the box, where Schnellbacher at the near post mishits the ball - Urbig saves.
5'
Big chance!
Ljubicic puts in a cross from the right side of the penalty area to the far post, where Lemperle misses the ball. The second ball then lands at Downs' feet in front of goal, but he skies it over the bar!
Kick-off!
This is how Cologne starts
Urbig - Thielmann, Hübers, Heintz, Paqarada - Martel - Ljubicic, Maina, Huseinbašić - Downs, Lemperle
The Elversberg starting eleven
