Köln starts break early against Hoffenheim

By: klaus | May 11th, 2009

After last weeks victory over Bremen, Köln responded with a lifeless 2-0 loss to Hoffenheim. The best thing said of the match was the weather and with three remaining matches Christoph Daum will need to spark his side or May will play out like a series of forgettable friendlies.

Coming into the match Hoffenheim were in the midst of long win-less run but despite these problems, Köln laid back in a conservative approach. Comfortable with that approach the match was void of highlights till two minutes for the hour when Hoffenheim’s Sejad Salihović drove free-kick in from twenty-five metres to make it 1-0. Ten minutes later it was 2-0 as Demba Ba hit the back of the net from just outside the area. Down by two goals, Taner Yalçın, Adil Chihi and Kevin McKenna came into the match but still Köln lacked the fire to get back in to the match.

    …there must be someone who can tell Christoph Daum that it is in fact allowed to play with two strikers in the Bundesliga. But on the other hand, Radu? Sanou? Ishiaku? yeah, I guess, let’s keep it that way…
