Draw against Fortuna
Kainz scores, but Cologne miss out on top spot
1. FC Köln missed out on a return to the top of the table in the second German soccer league. Austrian international Florian Kainz scored a goal on Sunday - but it was not enough for a win.
The team of coach Gerhard Struber, who put the ÖFB internationals Florian Kainz and Dejan Ljubicic as well as Salzburg-born and ex-Sturm Graz professional Jusuf Gazibegovic in the starting eleven, only managed a 1-1 home draw in the Rhine derby against Fortuna Düsseldorf on Sunday. Kainz had put Cologne in front (67'), Isak Johannesson equalized with a penalty in the 90th minute.
The penalty was the result of a lapse by Cologne's Joel Schmied, who had "cleared" a Düsseldorf cross in the penalty area with his hand. After 23 rounds, Cologne are one point behind HSV in second place in the table with 41 points. Fortuna (38) are fifth.
