The match between VfL Bochum and 1. FC Köln was a closely contested affair with both teams displaying strong attacking performances. However, it seems that the scoreline did not reflect this as neither side managed to score a goal in the first half.

Despite the draw, Bochum striker Christian Gueye scored for his team in the second half. The goal came on a corner kick from a cross by the midfielder, who then converted it into an own goal by the opposing goalkeeper.

However, it seemed that the game could have gone further as Köln equalized through a penalty shootout after a goalless first period. Despite the pressure, Bochum managed to hold onto the lead until the end.

Overall, the match was a well-contested one with both sides displaying their best efforts. It will be interesting to see how the teams perform in future matches.
