 | Leverkusen gave Cologne the victory and the miracle is not ruled out19-03-2018 |
After 24 rounds at the bottom, Cologne finally managed to get away from the last place in the Bundesliga and is now 5 points out of salvation. This was a fact when the goats beat Bayer (Leverkusen) with a 2-0 home win in the regional derby and passed Hamburger WF. By the end, there are seven circles in which Cologne has real chances of creating the sensation. So far, in the history of the Bundesliga, no team with as many points as the hosts had before this match - 17, at this point in the season, failed to survive.
The players in the white-red were facilitated by two offspring of the rival. In the 9th Juya Osaka scored 1-0 and hoped for the local audience.
The 33rd minute was running when the first gift came from the guests. Then Leverkusen`s central striker Lucas Alario struck Dominique Maro without a ball and received a decent red card. The second big prize came in the 69th when Bayer`s midfielder Charles Arangis did not appreciate the situation and his pass to the goal keeper was met by Zimon Zoller, who was easy to score for 2:0.
The Aspirins had several positions and could change the course of events, but they did not score any of them.
After this round, Leverkusen is already outside the Champions League.
