The 1. FC Köln is the football club from the cathedral city. In the New sticker on T-Online you will find all the important messages about the “billy goats”.
The season ended prematurely for the Yannick Mausshund, which was changed from Hertha BSC to 1. FC Köln this winter. The central defender suffered a serious ankle injury and was already operated on Wednesday. Mouse dog was bent on Saturday, at the Cologne U21 regional league game against SC Wiedenbrück (1-0), in the first half.
“This is very bitter. On the one hand, I feel sorry for him, on the other hand, of course, for us,” of course for us, “coach Evangelos Sbonias told the” Geissblog “. Mouse dog had promptly made it into the starting eleven of the U21 and made it in his debut against city rival Fortuna Cologne (3: 3). The serious injury followed in the second mission.
Good news at 1. FC Köln: Mark Uth stood together on Wednesday since his muscle fiber tear in early January with his teammates on the training ground. Before warming up, FC coach Gerhard Struber gathered his players on the middle circle and announced the good news of Uth’s return. The professionals applauded the attacker and celebrated him with the well-known “Uth, Uth, Uth” speaking.
After the unit, Eric Martel, which is also also a muscle fiber tear, also entered the place. Together with Jacob Christensen (cruciate ligament rupture), the six completed an individual unit. However, both Martel and UTH are not yet an option for the derby against Fortuna Düsseldorf.
The professionals of the 1st FC Köln started an emotional call for the 2025 Bundestag election by video message. On the second division team’s Instagram channel, the players were asked when “the question of the week” format: Why are you going to vote? On the way to the training site, Captain Timo Hübers, the Cologne residents, for example: “To keep us together, in which everyone can feel comfortable, no matter where they come from, whatever they look or what. So, as with us in the team. “
Mathias Olesen chose particularly emotional words. “I can’t choose in Germany. But please choose so that I can stay here,” said the midfield player, who, in addition to the Luxembourgian, also has Danish citizenship. The 1. FC Köln uses itself with many promotions for diversity and equality as well as against discrimination. Before the derby against Fortuna Düsseldorf on the election Sunday, there should also be a joint call from both clubs.
The 1st FC Köln started preparing for the home game against Fortuna Düsseldorf on Monday afternoon. The personnel situation remained tense. With Neo Telle, who was not there in Magdeburg due to illness, only one of the numerous most recently unusual players returned to team training.
In addition to the long -term injuries Jacob Christensen, Luca Kilian and Mark Uth, Tim Lemperle, Eric Martel and Julian Pauli are still missing. The sextet worked instead in the rehabilitation area. Uth took one step forward: The playmaker, battered by injuries, completed an individual unit on the lawn together with Christensen.
The 1. FC Köln remains the leaders of the 2nd Bundesliga despite the bitter 0: 3 defeat at the 1st FC Magdeburg. The Cologne slips could not use the direct pursuers from Kaiserslautern and Hamburg on matchday 22. After the FCK broke up with a goalless draw from Hannover 96 on Saturday, HSV did not get out of a 1-1 table at the bottom of the table Jahn Regensburg on Sunday.
