The Cologne team had to operate outnumbered for a long time, as Jan Thielmann was shown red after just 14 minutes for a serious foul on Granit Xhaka. Things continued in this vein, ÖFB team player Dejan Ljubicic picked up his fifth yellow card after criticizing the referee and is therefore suspended against Mönchengladbach next week. Shortly before the break, Leverkusen, who were by no means dominant, took their chance to take the lead through Jeremie Frimpong (38th).
Sargis Adamyan missed the equalizer for the Billy Goats after the restart; the striker failed to hit the inside post (51′). On the other hand, Alejandro Grimaldo made it 2-0 better with his goal (73′). The Cologne team, for whom Florian Kainz was only a substitute this time, remain in 16th place – one point ahead of 17th (Mainz) and eight behind 15th (Bochum).
