HT: Köln 1-0 Wolfsburg Köln are definitely the happy of the two teams as they go into the break 1-0 up thanks to a Maina strike.

No penalty and Kraub has now gotten up. Köln 1-0 Wolfsburg Kraub is down after a collision in the box. The ref has gone over to have a look. Play has been stopped. Yes, that Eriksen I mentioned in my last post was former Manchester United and Tottenham midfielder Christian Eriksen. When he signed to the German club after leaving Manchester United at the end of last season, he said: "Wolfsburg is my first club in the Bundesliga - I'm really looking forward to this new adventure. I'm convinced we can achieve something together. "I immediately sensed that [Wolfsburg manager] Paul Simonis has a clear vision for the team and for me personally. "The fact that there are several familiar faces in the squad from the Danish national team makes Wolfsburg a particularly attractive proposition for me. " Eriksen has registered 4 assists and 1 goal in 16 appearances. Thumbs up if you think if you think he'll be the difference tonight and thumbs down if not. Köln 1-0 Wolfsburg Wimmer gets through for Wolfsburg for the first time tonight, Eriksen plays an intelligent lofted pass though the gap of Köln's defence but Wimmer on his weaker left foot is wasteful and fails to hit the target from a close but awkward range. Köln 1-0 Wolfsburg That goal has stunned Wolfsburg and energised Köln who are looking to press their advantage and get their second of the night.
