Mohr scores - Offside!
After a magnificent outside-of-the-boot pass from Younes from the centre circle, Karaman gets a shot off from the left side of the penalty area. Urbig parries the ball and Mohr buries it in the Köln goal. After the celebration, a calibration is needed: Was Mohr offside? The VAR check confirms: Yes, the goal is disallowed.

Karaman converts!
From the shooter's perspective, Urbig dives to the right and has no chance to reach the ball, which is shot high to the left by the Schalke captain. Can Schalke come back now? It's only 1-3.
Goal probability
Goal probability
Goal probability determines the likelihood that the ball will land in the goal from every position on the pitch. The value is based on large amounts of data from previous years; factors such as shot angle, distance to goal and opponent pressure - as well as mathematical models.
Distance to Goal
Distance to Goal
The distance to goal is measured at the time of the shot - from the position of the ball to the center of the goal.

Lemperle! 3-0!
A cold shower for Schalke! Köln combines effortlessly on the left into the penalty area. Paqarada whips in a cross to the centre and Lemperle only needs to stick out his foot at the far post. VAR checks for offside and confirms the goal - Köln pulls away!

Half-time at Schalke
In what was initially an evenly matched game, Köln had the better chances, took a deserved lead, gained control of the match, and executed a textbook counter-attack seconds before the half-time whistle to make it 2-0. This will be a tough mountain to climb for Schalke.

Maina! 2-0!
A perfect counter-attack leads to Cologne's second goal. Thielmann brilliantly keeps the ball in play at right-back position, then sends Maina on a run down the right. After a delayed one-two with Downs, Maina initially seems to dribble himself into trouble against Heekeren, but gets a second chance and slots it in with his left foot into the bottom right corner - two Schalke players on the goal line can't save it. Then it's half-time!

Downs! 1-0 to Köln!
After a drinks break in 29-degree heat at Schalke, the home side are not yet back in the game. Heekeren's long ball is immediately returned, and Downs finds himself free to shoot at the edge of the penalty area. He slots the ball into the bottom right corner with the inside of his right foot.

xGoals
The xGoals value of a club is calculated from the sum of all goal probabilities (goals and shots on goal) of that team. During a match, it’s easy to see whether the club is performing better than expected (goals > xGoals) - or maybe even higher (xGoals > goals).
