Union Berlin drew 1:1 with 1. FC Cologne in Sunday's Bundesliga match. The hosts took the lead, but the visitors managed to equalize after the break thanks to Malek El Mala, who scored the decisive goal on his debut in Germany's top league. Die Zeit ↗
For Union, this was a reaction to the heavy defeat against Cologne in the German Cup, which took place just a few days before the league match. The Berliners appeared more focused this time and for a long time were heading towards a home win, but they ultimately failed to hold on to their lead. Tagesspiegel ↗
El Mala experienced an extraordinarily successful moment in his first Bundesliga appearance. His goal secured a point for Cologne and continued the club's successful run following the cup win over Union. However, Cologne is still waiting for its first away win against this opponent. The team remained without a win on the road for the 17th consecutive Bundesliga match. n-tv ↗
The draw did not help Union distance itself significantly from the relegation zone. Although the Berlin side gained a league point after its cup setback, its position in the lower part of the table remains uncertain. Cologne, having picked up another point, has bolstered its positive mood, although its away record remains a problem. Tagesspiegel ↗
