Following Stuttgart’s success against Mainz earlier in the day, the 21st day of the Bundesliga ended with a duel between Hoffenheim and Cologne. Without a victory since December 8, Hoffenheim hoped to return to success at the PreZero Arena against a Cologne team destined for hell after a catastrophic first part of the season but which remained with an encouraging victory against Frankfurt, the weekend -end.

If the two teams returned to the locker room at the break with a parity score, the match finally settled in the second half. It was Max Fingrafe who took matters into his own hands by giving his team a definitive advantage in the 79th minute (0-1). While the fate of the match already seemed sealed, Andrej Kamaric shocked the crowd at the PreZero Arena by scoring at the end of added time (1-1, 90th+4) to secure the draw. Consequence in the ranking, Cologne misses the opportunity to come back to two points from Union Berlin, first non-relegation. Opposite, Hoffenheim is not reassured but nevertheless occupies the first part of the table.
