WEGHORST!
Has to score, but no. He fired Bornauw's knock-down goalwards, but Schwäbe throws out a strong hand.

CHANCE!
Big opening for Wolfsburg as Lacroix heads over from a corner. The net was waiting to bulge!
82'
DANGER!
Uth finds Modeste in the box, but his control evades him and it goes behind off his shin. That was a chance!
81'
YELLOW PERIL
Wolfsburg's frustrations boiling over as Roussillon and Arnold go into the book.
77'
OFFSIDE!
Baku converts Roussillon's cross, but he's clearly offside. That won't count.
73'
UTH? UTH?! YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE UTH!
Those Cologne changes pay off! Pinball in the box ends with Schindler finding Uth, who uses his chest to steer the ball in and bring Cologne level!

OFFSIDE!
Steffen glides past two Cologne players, but Lukebakio's offside when he receives the ball. A bit more precision, and he'd have been in!
65'
NMECHA INJURED
Lukas Nmecha can't continue after that bookable offence from Schmitz. Gerhardt's on in place of Wolfsburg's joint-top scorer.
59'
WOLFSBURG CHANGE
Lively full debut from young Felix Nmecha, though he faded towards the end of the first half. Renato Steffen is his replacement.
51'
WEGHORST!
Wolfsburg retake the lead! Roussillon sends Lukebakio away. He dances into the box, and selflessly squares for Weghorst, who cannot miss from close range.
48'
REFLEX SAVE!
Sensational goalkeeping from Schwäbe. He punches clear a free-kick. Lukebakio's follow-up is more of a cross-shot for Nmecha, who looks for all the world like scoring from six yards. It's deflected, but Cologne's deputy stopper somehow keeps it out!

HALF-TIME! WOLFSBURG 1-1 COLOGNE
Bit of a wild end to the first half. Wolfsburg led through Lukas Nmecha, but Anthony Modeste's ninth goal of the campaign sends Cologne in level at the break.

HECTOR!
Wolfsburg are all at sea as Schmitz launches a long throw into the danger zone. Hector tries to find the top corner, but shoots over.
39'
ACCESS DENIED!
Wolfsburg immediately on the offensive with Weghorst, who's denied a clear sight of goal by Schmitz. Nmecha follows suit soon after, but his shot is blocked, catching Hector in the unmentionables.
34'
COLOGNE LEVEL!
Modeste ends his drought! Baku attempts to let the ball run out for a goal-kick, but Hector nips in to swing over a cross. Duda helps it on for Kainz, who fires aganst the crossbar. Modeste gets his head to the loose ball to convert from close range and get Cologne back on level terms. Wolfsburg will be kicking themselves.

ROUTINE SAVE
Vranckx catches Duda, presenting Kainz with a sight of the Wolfsburg goal from a set-piece. He winds up, but a deflection takes the sting out of the shot and it's an easy save for Casteels.
19'
MODESTE!
Play resumes with Cologne looking to take advantage of any dazed heads. Hector finds Modeste with a cross, but the Frenchman heads straight at Casteels. He's four games without a goal...
17'
COLLISION
Wolfsburg centre-back Bornauw and Lacroix collide, challenging for an aerial ball. We'll have a stoppage, whilst the physios give both men a once-over.
14'
PROCEED WITH CAUTION
Felix Nmecha catches Hübers, and can have no complaints. The youngester will have to watch his step from now on...
12'
WOLFSBURG COM-BRO
Here come Wolfsburg again with goalscorer Nmecha. He passes to younger brother Felix, who can't direct his attempt past Schwäbe.
8'
WOLFSBURG LEAD!
Now this is how to counter! Schaub sees a shot blocked following a corner, allowing Baku to go on the attack. He exchanges passes with Lukebakio, before clipping an inch-perfect ball into the middle for Lukas Nmecha, who makes no mistake with his finish. That's six for the season for the Germany striker.
7'
NMECHA AGAIN!
Wolfsburg break at speed as Weghorst plays in young Felix Nmecha. He has unmarked teammates in the box, but can only find the gloves of Schwäbe with his attempted cross.
3'
NMECHA!
Felix, not Lukas, takes on a ball from Vranckx in the box. He guides it goalwards, forcing Schwäbe to tip over the crossbar.
キックオフ
WEGHORST'S GOT FORM
Wolfsburg’s top scorer with five goals along with Lukas Nmecha, Wout Weghorst can boast of two goals and an assist in four previous meetings against Cologne. The Dutch forward’s last top-flight goal this term came against Borussia Dortmund at the end of November.
BAUMGART CANDID
Cologne coach Steffen Baumgart admitted it was “difficult for us to score at the moment,” with the 49-year-old’s side registering just one goal in their last two games. Despite the Billy-Goats losing their title of the division’s last unbeaten home team with defeat against Augsburg on Friday, Baumgart believes his team are still, “on the right track” as they get set to face Wolfsburg.
KOHFELDT CALLS FOR BRAVE WOLVES
VfL coach Florian Kohfeldt told his side to be “courageous” as they seek to end a run of seven games without a win in all competitions. “We need clear leadership,” the tactician said. “It’s important to accept periods like this and be proactive in dealing with them.”
MODESTE AT THE READY
Could Anthony Modeste be the man to break the Billy Goats’ barren run in Wolfsburg tonight? Cologne have won just once in 14 trips to the Volkswagen Arena but in their French marksman, have a player who has scored six times in 11 meetings against the Wolves.
RESPONSE SOUGHT
Tonight’s opponents are separated by just one place and a single point in the Bundesliga standings, with eleventh-placed Wolfsburg edging visitors Cologne. Both will be keen to bounce back from respective Matchday 15 reverses last weekend. The hosts are smarting from a 2-0 loss against Stuttgart while Cologne went down to Augsburg.
