1. FC Köln stumbles to Europe

  1. FC Köln receives one of its most beautiful defeats in 0-1 against VfL Wolfsburg: thanks to the shooting aid from the rival Bayer Leverkusen, the European Cup has been reached.

Anthony Modeste was carried in good tradition by the fans, and the lawn of the Cologne stadium and the goal nets were not safe from the fan masses. The pictures were dramatic from May 20, 2017 when 1. FC Köln returned to international business after 25 years. Fine difference: This time the Effzeh reached the European Cup despite a 0: 1 (0: 1) defeat against VfL Wolfsburg - thanks to shooting aid from the rival Bayer Leverkusen.

"Before the season, nobody would have thought that we would see such pictures here," said Thomas Kessler, head of the license area at 1. FC Köln, at Sky on the peaceful place storm. "When the first disappointment about the defeat is gone, the boys can reward themselves a bit today," said Kessler, who was celebrated extensively as a FC professional five years ago by the fans in the stadium.

At least these pictures did not repeat on Saturday: the team quickly disappeared into the cabin that she wanted to concentrate on the last Bundesliga game next Saturday at VfB Stuttgart, announced stadium spokesman Michael Trippel.

The Conference League is sure to have slipped in seventh place because pursuer TSG Hoffenheim lost 2: 4 against Leverkusen. However, like 2017, it could still go to the Europa League, but the competition must also play along.

Last but not least, the fact that the FC needs further shooting aid is due to an ex-Kölner: Yannick Gerhardt (43.) met for Wolfsburg and ended the host after four victories. "It is perfect for me: I met and the FC plays European," said Gerhardt.

It is noteworthy that Steffen Baumgart's Cologne team has now qualified for European business: In May of last year, the team that has hardly changed since then had only prevented relegation.

Cologne fans look forward to Europe

1.FC KÖLN ULTRAS - BEST MOMENTS

For days, the whole city had been looking forward to this game that the club claimed that it could have sold 200,000 tickets. Ultimately, 50,000 came in, the south curve already addressed a choreo with a choreo - and the organizers had installed fences around the field as a precaution to prevent a place after the final whistle - which was not part of it.

Cologne pressed from the kick -off, Wolfsburg did not arrive at all at all, the first ten minutes took place almost exclusively in and around the penalty area of the guests.

Cologne could have already met twice: Modeste header defused Pavao Pervan in the Wolfsburg goal (3rd), Benno Schmitz 'shot clapped on the post (6th). Only after 20 minutes did Wolfsburg show up every now and then in front of the goal, without becoming dangerous.

Nevertheless, the game was more balanced when the break came closer, Cologne suddenly even seemed tired after the swinging initial phase - and Wolfsburg hit.

The break then helped the Cologne to take new swing, because they also ran in the second half. Florian Kainz (53./59.) And Modeste (69th/74th) failed twice. At times, the game was as one -sided as in the initial phase, which was the audience, but continued to wait for the goal - in vain.

Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl Tips - How to update the secret base and farm fast XP

Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl are pretty good remakes of the original DS title, but also offer some new content for everything else. This includes the Grand Underground, which replaces the ancient underground and offers new opportunities to catch Pokemon (although they are much more difficult than those on the surface). It is accessible from almost everywhere in Singh and also offers some additional treasures that can be found. Treasures can also be exchanged on hikers, which give them balls in return. Together with the upgrade of your secret base, you can buy with spheres of evolutionary stones and heart shed (which can be exchanged against the motion reminder in Astoria City to help Pokemon when recovering certain movements). But where are these hikers? Just drive northwest of the Battle Zone area Grand Underground or go directly from the entrance to the Twin Leaf Grand Underground to find a Hiker. You will also find them in the different sections of the Grand Under...

Despite withdrawn penalty: BTSV wins in Mannheim

Both Mannheim's coach Patrick Glöckner after the 2-1 victory in Halle and Braunschweig coach Michael Schiele after 2: 1 against the MSV Duisburg put on the starting formations of the previous week. The Waldhof started swinging, Martinovic left a first chance for Donkor preparatory work after 100 seconds. It was ugly after 15 minutes, as a snatterer Krauße met with a high leg on his face. The Mannheim Routinian saw yellow, while the guest actor with bleeding place wound hurried into the cabin. For minutes, the BTSV operated in exterior, marriage with turban returned - hug with a chatter included (21.). After that Brunswick came into play and better in the game, but was lucky that a gate of Costly after See-Segert header did not find any recognition (38.). The direct return led to the 0: 1. A beautiful combination over Krauße and Henning landed at Multhaup, the powerful and flat Königsmann overwall - 1: 0 for the Lower Saxon lions, ice-cold shower for the SV Waldhof (39th). Tha...
