Quiet victory for Pharmacists, who were in the majority from the 14th minute
Leader of the German Bundesliga Bayer confidently beat away Cologne in the 24th round match – 2:0.
The favorite’s task was made much easier by the early removal of the opponent. Striker Jan Thielmann couldn’t think of anything better than to step on Granit Xhaka’s foot. The all-seeing VAR did not ignore this situation.
Both of the Pharmacists’ goals were scored by the wing defenders. At the end of the first half, Jeremy Frimpong opened the scoring, beating the goalkeeper at close range after a short pass from Patrick Geek. The Dutchman scored the eighth goal in the current championship and made his 20th effective action of the season.
In the middle of the second half, Alejandro Grimaldo finally buried the intrigue by touching in Amin Adli’s pass. The Spaniard scored his ninth goal in the Bundesliga. He also has 10 assists in the championship.
Bayer is 10 points ahead of Bayern with ten rounds to go. Cologne is 16th, eight points behind the safety zone.
