This time, however, BVB decided to top it up. It became dangerous again after a long pass, this time Jude Bellingham played on Erling Haaland, who narrowly missed the Cologne goal with his right foot when he made his comeback from the start (25th). Shortly afterwards, Cologne also had their first good opportunity, Mark Uth hit the side netting from close range (26′), seconds later the ball jumped clear in front of the goal with an even better shot (27′).
The FC meets again on the outside
After 35 minutes, BVB keeper Gregor Kobel had to reach behind him again. After a cross from Jannes Horn, Anthony Modeste headed the ball, but instead of on goal, the ball went straight to Sebastian Andersson, who only had to slide it into the empty net from a few meters. It was Cologne’s 15th goal from a cross this season – the best in the league.
