Full-time: Cologne 2-2 Hannover

Hannover battle to a 2-2 draw against Cologne. In the first half, the visitors are the better side and take the lead through Jessic Ngankam. After the break, however, Cologne dominate and turn the match around with goals from Tim Lemperle and Damion Downs. But the fiercely fighting Hannover side, playing with ten men after Max Christiansen's red card, manage to equalise when Florian Kainz scored an own goal.

Hannover have been without a shot on goal since the 40th minute, yet still manage to equalise.

Unbelievable - Kainz scores an own goal!

What a blow for the hosts! Hannover attacks down the right. Monju Momuluh crosses. In the middle, Hübers attempts to clear but deflects the ball with his shin - and from there it bounces off Kainz's chest and into the net.

Goooal! - Cologne take the lead

Cologne turns the game around and takes a well-deserved lead. It's a brilliant individual effort that leads to this goal. Maina sprints at full speed down the left-hand side, leaves two Hannover players standing, and then passes low into the middle. Damion Downs stretches out a long leg in the six-yard box and slides the ball onto the inside of the post and into the net.

The equaliser!

It takes the Cologne side just three minutes after the break to level the score at 1-1. Brilliant pass from Hübers to the left to Paqarada, who chips the ball into Lemperle's path. The striker uses his body to get past Knight and then slots it past Zieler from a tight angle. A brief VAR check verifies the goal.

後半開始

Half-time: Cologne 0-1 Hannover

Hannover 96 lead 1-0 at half-time. Cologne have had more of the play and keep trying to move forward quickly. However, they haven't created many clear-cut chances. Hannover, on the other hand, have had their opportunities from set-pieces - and capitalised on one of them with Jessic Ngankam scoring the opener.

Slightly better chances

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).

Cologne have slightly better chances. However, both teams need to improve in the xG department.

Big chance

Hannover gets a free kick on the left touchline and they take it quickly. Leopold crosses with his left foot, Schwäbe can only parry slightly - then Håvard Nielsen gets a free shot from 12 metres - but hits a Cologne player.

First goal conceded by Schwäbe

Marvin Schwäbe has conceded his first goal since 18 May - he was beaten by Jan-Niklas Beste in the 4-1 Bundesliga defeat at Heidenheim.

37'

Behind the back

Good counter-attacking opportunity for Cologne. Lemperle is out on the left, passes to the centre - but behind Waldschmidt. He has to take two steps back, so his shot is harmless.

36'

Penalty?

Jessic Ngankam dribbles into the penalty area, approaches the goalkeeper and then goes down in a foot race with Heintz. Referee Storks waves it off, no penalty.

Lemperle misses the target

Cologne counter-attack down the left, then play around the penalty area. Finally, Lemperle comes from deep to take a shot but puts it well wide of the left post.

Dangerous

Nielsen receives the ball 30 metres from goal, advances, cuts inside and then unleashes a shot. However, Schwäbe manages to parry it with a fine diving save.

No shots on goal yet

Cologne have had more possession, but they're still without a shot on target.

13'

Nearly an own goal

Corner for Cologne from the right. Paqarada delivers the ball, it's flicked on and then bounces off Ngankam's head towards the goal. But it goes just over the crossbar.

11'

Into trouble

Cologne play their way through brilliantly with a clever backheel on the halfway line, then Ljubicic makes a forward run. Waldschmidt is also free beside him, but the midfielder doesn't pass - and ultimately gets stopped by the two Hannover defenders.

Second corner in a row

Hannover is really pushing Cologne back, dominating the game.

Missed opportunity

That was a golden chance for Cologne. Maina went through one-on-one with the goalkeeper. From 14 metres out, he tries to slide the ball past Zieler - but is denied by the Hannover 96 keeper. However, the play is called back for offside. Therefore, there's no corner kick either.

Intercepted

Hannover get a free kick about 30 metres to the left of the goal. Leopold delivers the ball, but a Cologne player heads it away. However, Cologne then struggles to play out from the back. Hannover forces the home side deep into their own half.

Another Schwäbe clean sheet?

Before kick-off, Cologne have gone 370 minutes without conceding a goal in competitive matches, over six hours. Marvin Schwäbe has been in goal for all of these four matches.

With purpose

In the first two minutes, Cologne are playing quickly and purposefully forward. No cautious build-up play, but rather immediate forward passes. So far, however, Hannover are intercepting everything.

キックオフ

Strong back three

Hannover have started with a back three in defence three times this season, and in these three matches, they have not conceded a goal: 3-0 away to Magdeburg (matchday 10), 0-0 away to Münster (matchday 2) and 2-0 against Regensburg (matchday 1).

The stage is set

The match is about to begin at the RheinEnergieSTADION.

Four changes for Hannover

Hannover make four changes to their starting line-up, including returns for Havard Nielsen and Jessic Ngankam in attack, starting together for the first time since early October. Josh Knight and Jannik Dehm are back in the side too.

Cologne unchanged

The Billy Goats start with the same XI as in their recent 1-0 victory in Münster. Gerhard Struber generally makes very few changes, with a maximum of two changes from match to match this season.

Hannover starting XI

Zieler - Knight, Halstenberg, Neumann - Muroya, Leopold, Christiansen, Dehm - Nielsen - Tresoldi, Ngankam

Cologne starting XI

Schwäbe - Pauli, Hübers, Heintz - Ljubicic, Martel, Huseinbašić, Paqarada - Waldschmidt, Maina - Lemperle

Battle for promotion

Despite their two recent defeats, Hannover could become league leaders with a win (depending on the result between Elversberg and Paderborn at the same time). Cologne, on the other hand, would definitely jump to second place with a win and could then drop to fourth place at most tomorrow.

Leitl on facing Hannover

"Of course, there's a great sense of anticipation among us. It's always something special to play in Cologne. 50,000 capacity, sold out, 5,000 from Hannover – the setting couldn't be better. We're facing a team that is very strong, which has certainly gained some stability through the tactical change. They press high, in fact they have a lot of intensity in their pressing patterns."

Struber on facing Hannover

"Hannover are a very strong opponent - both in terms of individual players and overall team performance. It will be a very big challenge for us. Of course, we're pleased that we've kept four clean sheets in a row. But we can't rest on our laurels. Everyone needs to push themselves to the limit on Saturday for us to be successful."

Zieler's return

Ron-Robert Zieler is a native of Cologne and played for FC from 1999 to 2005 and in 2020/21. His only competitive match for FC's first team was the last of his 254 Bundesliga appearances (on 6 November 2020 in the 1-1 draw against Bremen).

Familiar faces

Timo Hübers (five Bundesliga matches and 32 second division matches with three goals for Cologne) and Linton Maina (22 Bundesliga matches, one goal; 69 second division matches, ten goals) are former Hannover players.

Last encounters

The last competitive matches between Cologne and Hannover took place in the Bundesliga season 2017/18 and both ended in draws (0-0 in Hannover and 1-1 in Cologne).

25 years ago

For the third time and for the first time in 25 years, Cologne and Hannover 96 are together again in Bundesliga 2. In their previous shared second-tier season in 1999/2000, Cologne won both matches (3-1 at home, 5-3 away).
