Cologne are enjoying themselves now as Uth slips in Jakobs and the teenager slots the ball under Schwolow for the hosts' fourth of the afternoon. 

Kingsley Ehizibue, once the fastest player ever clocked in the Bundesliga, picks up the ball on the right from Terodde and runs at the Freiburg defence, cutting inside before coolly rolling the ball into the far corner for his first Bundesliga goal. 

He was holding his ankle earlier in the game and now it looks like Dominick Drexler will have to make way. Cologne have a substitution left but he opts to come back on.

A rousing ovation from the Cologne faithful as Jhon Cordoba is replaced by Simon Terodde. The Colombian is the first Billy Goats player since Klaus Allofs in 1984 to score in six straight home games.

Cologne's 22 attempts on goal so far today is the most they've had in a Bundesliga game this season.

The Cologne centre-back gets up high as a corner is flicked on, but he can only head over the bar from six yards!

A shot from some 20 yards takes a wicked deflection off former Cologne man Dominique Heintz and has Schwolow scrambling back across his goal to desperately claw it round his post.

Ismail Jakobs tries to wrap this up by beating Schwolow from a narrow angle. His shot is saved but the ball comes back out to him, which he shifts onto his right looking for the far corner but blasts wide.

A defence-splitting pass from Rafael Czichos gets Cordoba in behind. Schwolow makes himself bit to make the save, but the flag eventually goes up for offside.

This time it's a free-kick for the lively local boy. It looks like it's curling under the bar until Schwolow gets a solid hand to the ball to palm it over.

Jhon Cordoba has now scored in each of his last six home games! It all starts from a run by Uth as he creates space in midfield before laying it off to Hector. The captain's shot from the edge of the box is only parried by Schwolow and the Colombian tucks home his seventh goal of the campaign - all in those last six home games. 

Jakobs with a tantalising cross from the left looks destined for Mark Uth in the box, but Freiburg capatain Günter gets across at the last second to clear for a corner.

Dominick Drexler has gone down in the Freiburg box as Cologne win a corner. He looks to have taken a knock to his ankle and needs treatment.

Cologne pinch the ball back inside the Freiburg half and Cordoba is away. He only has Schwolow to beat and looks to curl it from 20 yards, but it doesn't quite have the bend on it and goes wide.

That was Sebastiaan Bornauw's fourth goal of the campaign, making him Cologne's second-best goalscorer. In terms of defenders, only Frankfurt's Martin Hinteregger has scored more this season.

They had cranked up the pressure in the last few minutes and now Cologne have their lead. It's come from a corner that Schwolow had originallz saved from close range, but he couldn't do anything as Dominick Drexler and Sebastiaan Bornauw had a swing at the rebound. It's been given to the latter for Cologne's 10th (out of 24) goal from a corner this season.

Great chance for the hosts to break the deadlock after a great run down the right by Ehizibue. He picks out Cordoba in the box but the Colombian heads wide at the far post.

Things have settled down somewhat on the pitch but Cologne top scorer Jhon Cordoba is the next player into the book for a late tackle in midfield on Gulde.

A mix-up at the back sees the ball bounce off a couple of Freiburg defenders before eventually popping up for Schwolow to collect. The goalkeeper then tries to punt the ball down the pitch but is blocked by Ismail Jakobs, who picks up his third caution of the season.

Jonas Hector chips a free-kick into the Freiburg penalty area looking for the head of centre-back Sebastiaan Bornauw, but he's on the stretch and doesn't connect at all.
