1. FC Cologne – BVB 0:4 (0:1)
Tore: 0:1 Malen (12′), 0:2 Füllkrug (FE/58′), 0:3 Malen (61′), 0:4 Moukoko (90’+3)
+++ Update live ticker +++
90’+4 And then it’s over. Dortmund don’t play like stars in Cologne, but they still deserve to win. Six points and 7-0 goals in the new year. That used to be worse.
90’+3 Gooooool for Borussia Dortmund!
And then a fourth goal is scored! Dortmund wins the ball in their own half and then makes the game quick again. The ball comes to Moukoko via Reyna and Bynoe-Gittens, who scores the final score.
79′ Cologne is trying something here, but fails due to its own inability. The billy goats show the same weaknesses as in 2023. This makes it difficult to score goals.
74′ The air is gone, both for the home team and the guests. Moukoko and Reyna now get a few more minutes.
66′ Jamie Bynoe-Gittens and Marco Reus come for Julian Brandt and Jadon Sancho. Terzic can now save some energy.
61′ Gooooool for Borussia Dortmund!
The decision! Dortmund countered with Ian Maatsen who hit a long ball to Malen. His Holland friend is up and running and makes it 3-0 alone in front of Schwäbe. That was strong.
59′ Is that bitter for Cologne, who were on the verge of equalizing here. Things are now going to be very difficult for the cellar child.
58′ Gooooool for Borussia Dortmund!
The previously hapless Füllkrug takes the penalty and slams the ball in. 2-0!
56′ Excitement at FC! Jadon Sancho enters the penalty area. Carstensen holds the Englishman by the hip, but he then falls to the ground relatively easily. But the whistle stops.
51′ Mega opportunity for Cologne! After a foul on Dortmund’s penalty area, referee Schlager decided on the advantage. Maina takes heart and flicks the ball over Kobel and onto the post. Carstensen cannot control the duster. It almost happened then.
46′ The teams are back and there is a debut at BVB! Hendry Blank comes on for Niklas Süle and is making his first appearance in the Bundesliga.
45’+8 But nothing of substance happens anymore. BVB goes into the break with a narrow but deserved lead against 1. FC Köln.
45′ We get eight mints on top…
44′ The encounter ripples a little towards the half-time whistle. There’s not much going on on the field or in the stands. A hello-wake effect is missing here.
37′ And another chance: In a roundabout way, a corner comes to Thomas Meunier, who puts the ball just next to the post with his head. BVB has now taken control of the action.
32′ Dortmund with a nice attack on the right side. In the middle, Niclas Füllkrug can no longer get the ball decisively.
29′ This isn’t a footballing treat yet. Cologne briefly creates danger because the coordination between Kobel and Meunier is not right. Ultimately, however, this does not create an opportunity.
19′ After a break of almost six minutes, we continue. Not that the players are getting cold yet.
18′ After the field has been cleared in front of the Cologne curve, it starts on the other side. Now the BVB supporters are happily throwing the coins. The transfer was probably agreed upon between the friendly fan scenes.
13′ Shortly afterwards the game had to be stopped because fans threw coins and other objects onto the field in protest.
12′ Gooooooooool for Borussia Dortmund!
The guests strike here after a slow scan. Donyell Malen takes the lead for BVB. After a flat corner, the Dutchman finishes and hits the ball into the net. It still remains eerily quiet because 12 minutes weren’t over yet.
5′ There is silence in the stands here. A sign of protest against the DFL.
1′ It starts in Cologne. BVB kicks off.
3:15 p.m.: You urgently need the victory to achieve your goals, says Edin Terzic before the game on “Sky”. A few tactical things were changed in preparation for the game. Let’s see if this is successful.
3:03 p.m.: It starts in about half an hour. In Cologne there are frosty temperatures around zero – but it doesn’t snow anymore.
2:33 p.m.: He’s finally back! A week after his comeback, Jadon Sancho is back in the starting line-up at Borussia Dortmund. A clear signal to Gio Reyna that even a player who hasn’t had any match practice for three months is currently ahead of him. The only downer for BVB: Emre Can is missing due to injury.
The line-up: Kobel – Meunier, Süle, Schlotterbeck, Maatsen – Özcan – Sancho, Sabitzer, Brandt, Malen – Füllkrug
1.30 p.m.: The Cologne team does have some concerns about their attack. Nevertheless, Terzic warns his players: “Cologne are still an unpleasant opponent. At home with the fans behind them, they always showed good games, especially against teams from the top third of the table.”
12.45 p.m.: 1. FC Köln has issued a safety warning for all visitors to the game. “Please travel carefully and wear appropriate footwear so that no one slips. “It could be slippery, even on the stadium steps,” the club tweeted on Saturday morning. So caution is advised.
11:36 a.m.: In the run-up to the meeting there was a possibility of cancellation due to the cold weather conditions. But now it’s clear, it can be played! The people of Cologne announced this on Saturday morning. You can get all the information about this here >>>
10:18 a.m.: Returnee Jadon Sancho particularly shone, as he was able to provide an assist in his first BVB game in over 900 days. New signing Ian Maatsen is also in good form. BVB is likely to rely on both against 1. FC Köln.
9:32 a.m.: BVB, on the other hand, stuck with Edin Terzic despite all the quarrels and only gave him two new assistant coaches. In the first Bundesliga game of the year it paid off with a 3-0 win against Darmstadt.
You can get more news here:
9.11 a.m.: In the table, both teams are worlds apart. While Borussia Dortmund arrives fifth in the table, the billy goats are second to last! During the winter break, a new coach, Timo Schultz, was installed. In his first competitive game there was a 1-1 draw against Heidenheim.
Saturday, 8 a.m.: Hello and welcome to the game between 1. FC Köln and BVB! Who will prevail in this traditional duel? The answer will be available here in our live ticker from 3:30 p.m.!
