Cologne go 11th

Following a cagey first half, the match came to life after the interval as Cologne’s clinical finishing took them past Frankfurt, who struggled to create any chances of note in the final third. The Billy Goats move on to 26 points, level with Gladbach in 10th, and are now nine points clear of the relegation zone.

Shkiri at the double

It's his second brace of the year already, having also found the net twice against Cologne.

Top scorer in 2023

That's five Bundesliga goals in this calendar year already for the Cologne midfielder, more than any other player in the league.

Game, set, match

Shkiri gets his second of the game, powering in a drive on the half-volley from 10 yards after Frankfurt only half cleared a cross into the box.

Try as they might, Frankfurt just can't break their hosts down. It's looking like game over here.

More subs

Frankfurt make another attacking change as Alario comes on up front for Hasebe. Cologne bring on Schindler and Thielmann - they're not parking the bus but are going for more!

Borre heads wide!

A glorious chance for Frankfurt to pull a goal back as Max delivers a corner from the left. He finds Borre near the corner of the six-yard box at the front post, but the Colombian can only direct his header wide.
71'

Two to the good!

Another lightning fast counter from Cologne and this time with an end product. Maina scurries forward and plays in Adamyan, whose shot is blocked by Trapp. The ball ricochets up kindly for Skhiri, who is left with a simple header into an empty net from close range.

Two more subs

Cologne respond with a double substitution of their own. Adamyan comes on for Tigges up top, while Olesen replaces Huseinbasic in central midfield.

Double change

Frankfurt coach Oliver Glasner has to do something and opts to bring on two attacking players on Borre and Knauff, with Lindstrom and Buta making way.
64'

Kamada almost in!

The Japanese playmaker darts into the box to collect a ball over the defence. He can't quite bring it down though and it's cleared for a corner. Kamada holds his head in his hands in frustration - that's the most space he's had in the Cologne box all game.

Key moment

Hübers' goal was just his second in the Bundesliga, his first having arrived in January 2022 in a 2-2 draw with Bochum. His goal was also the ninth time Cologne have found the net from a cross this season - more than any other team.
55'

Huge block from N'Dicka!

A sweeping counterattack from Cologne almost ends with their second goal as Maina flicks the ball through for Hector, who just has Trapp to beat. Or so he thinks! N'Dicka lunges and manages to block what appeared to be a certain goal!

Hector down

The Cologne captain is crunched in a tackle with Buta and is receiving treatment on his right knee.

Kolo Muani almost in

Lovely quick feet from Götze on the left to dance past three defenders before playing it in to Kolo Muani. He tries to spin his marker but Chabot just has enough muscle to hold him off and clear the danger.

Tale of the tape

information
xGoals
The xGoals value of a club is calculated from the sum of all goal probabilities (goals and shots on goal) of that team. During a match, it’s easy to see whether the club is performing better than expected (goals> xGoals) - or maybe even higher (xGoals> goals).
Frankfurt slightly ahead in terms of expected goals so far, but no real chances for either side as yet.

Götze in charge

The midfielder has won 57 percent of all his duels and completed 75 percent of his passes so far.

Brilliant from Kolo Muani

The Frenchman latches on to Lindstrom's pass and is properly clear of the defence for the first time all game. He skips past one defender, works and angle for a shot but just as he's about to pull the trigger from 10 yards, Schmitz recovers to poke the ball off his toe and clear the danger. He receives high fives all round from his teammates.

In control

Frankfurt have played almost twice as many passes as Cologne, and have looked the better team. They can't find any gaps in the home defence though.

The Frankfurt plays a neat one-two on the edge of the Cologne area and gets to the byline. His attempted cross is blocked for a corner by Hübers' outstretched leg though.

Kolo Muani again

Lovely footwork and shoulder dips from the Frankfurt forward to get past Martel not once, but twice down the left. His low cross into the middle is good but again a defender gets there ahead of Lindstrom.

Cologne unhurried

While Frankfurt have started aggressively, the hosts are playing patiently and biding their time, refusing to be hurried into playing long balls.

Chance for Frankfurt!

There are only about 30 seconds on the clock but Frankfurt are already in as Kolo Muani finds space on the left and crosses from the byline looking for Lindstrom. A defender's boot just gets there first though.

The stakes

Leipzig's loss at home to Union Berlin yesterday has opened the door for Frankfurt to climb back into the top four, provided they win here. Cologne, meanwhile, can only reclaim 11th place from Mainz if they win, although they would then have a more substantial cushion above the relegation places.

Birthday boy

Cologne centre-back Chabot turns 25 today. Can he celebrate with a win?
