With both teams hovering precariously above the relegation zone, Sunday's clash between 15th-placed Cologne and 14th-placed Werder Bremen carried enormous significance in the fight for Bundesliga survival.
The hosts entered the match winless in eight league games but had shown resilience, recovering points from losing positions nine times this season. Bremen, meanwhile, had found some form under new coach Daniel Thioune, winning three of their last five matches and their previous two away games after a 10-game winless streak on the road.
