8:06 p.m
Half-time conclusion:
Dresden deservedly leads 3-0 at the break against Cologne and doesn’t let anything go wrong here. Kutschke made it 1-0 early with a hand penalty, and after a mistake in the hosts’ build-up to the game, Hauptmann then increased the score for Dresden. Things got even worse for Viktoria in stoppage time: Greger beat Lemmer in the penalty area, there were penalties for Dynamo and the traffic light card for Greger. Kutschke stepped up again and converted safely again. There was absolutely nothing offensive from Cologne, and the cathedral townspeople were now outnumbered in the second half. The game seems already decided. It’s about to continue!

A free kick from the right half of the field almost creates a bit of danger in the Dresden penalty area.

It should be a special game today for the hosts’ coach, who coached today’s guests for around a year, but was relegated with Dynamo in 2014 and then had to leave. According to his own statement, it was still a special stage in his career for him. It is also a special game for Robin Meißner. Last season he was in the Domstädter jersey with a total of three goals against Dynamo, and today he plays for Dresden. However, he initially sits on the bench.

6:18 p.m
Coach Markusbeginn, however, warns against taking the game in his hometown of Cologne lightly and says of Viktoria: “They have a lot of potential in their ranks with their target players in the offensive and the great defenders in defense. They are also a physically strong team that can always be dangerous from set pieces.”
18:11
Viktoria is currently in eighth place in the league with 20 points and has started the season well, but recently lost 2-1 against Kellerkind Halle and remained below its potential. Dresden has been undefeated in the league for five games, is already seven points ahead of the relegation place and even has the catch-up game against Saarbrücken in hand. The promotion mission at Dynamo is currently going very well.
6:03 p.m
The league leaders are guests in the Rhineland. One day before the start of the carnival session, the Cologne team, who are still unbeaten in front of their home crowd, want to celebrate with their fans today and ring in the fifth season with a victory. Dresden, on the other hand, wants to say goodbye to the international break with a win and the lead in the table.
