Super sub saves TSG
Andrej Kramarić - who else? - saves Hoffenheim's bacon! The Croatian forward controls Kabak's dropping header on his chest before smashing in off the base of the post with a left-footed shot. Tidy.

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.

Cologne lead!
From the resulting free kick, Max Finkgräfe whips a free kick towards the corner. The ball takes the slightest of deflections while Oliver Baumann gets a hand to it but the net ripples and the away fans erupt as the visitors take the lead.

Bebou class
Ihlas Bebou brilliantly controls a pacy ball into his feet before turning and firing low at goal. Schwäbe gets down to block.

Schmitz booked
A so called 'tactical foul' by Schmitz - who tugs back the breaking Skov - earns the Cologne player a booking.
50'
Alidou probing
Some lovely work by Faride Alidou on the right for Cologne. The visiting attacker looks to take on Stanley Nsoki and almost appears to have the defender beaten, but Nsoki recovers to block the subsequent shot.

TSG come alive
The hosts have had their first shot of the game and it was Bebou who spurned a decent chance when well placed on the edge of the box. The 29-year-old skied his effort when afforded plenty of space.

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).

Billy-Goats menacing
Plenty of zip to Cologne today with Finkgräfe and Schmitz especially threatening from the flanks. Jan Thielmann
has a go at goal but he fails to trouble Oliver Baumann.

Chabot hurt
An accidental clash between Bebou and Chabot left the latter on the turf nursing a sore head. Chabot subsequently went off for treatment but has since jogged back into the game.
