Goretzka to shoulder more responsibility

Mixed fortunes for Köln

1. FC Köln's preparations for the new season suffered a blow after a 1-0 defeat to Spanish top-flight side Malaga CF in Aachen. Pablo Fornals Malla put Malaga ahead in the 19th minute, with new signing Artjoms Rudnevs' 29th-minute effort that hit the post the closest the Billy Goats came to an equaliser.

Rudnevs found the net in the second game of the day, though, as Peter Stöger's side beat Olympique de Marseille 2-1, with Leonardo Bittencourt also on the scoresheet.
