FC Köln, a unique club in a unique city. And, remarkably, still not relegated from the Bundesliga after a barely believable comeback on Saturday. This week’s @guardian_sport column https://t.co/KTzQbsUyWP
The Kicker Monday cover is devoted to Köln’s “madness until the end.” “Köln brings down Union. The final matchday relegation battle takes on extreme dimensions again.“ https://t.co/po7njE5LIA
When we left the commentary position, really felt like Köln were back in with a big shout & might have momentum in a 3-way final day „Ferntriell“ with Mainz & Union. But Mainz have ridden roughshod over that & now it will take goal swings as well as a Köln win & Union defeat.

Haven’t had a chance to properly compose thoughts after that crazy ending. Didn’t necessarily feel that late goal coming in the Köln air today but what an ending. Köln now have a chance of staying up on the final day. Commentary dream finish. #effzeh
