SV Werder Bremen earned a hard-fought point against 1. FC Köln after a nail-biting 1-1 draw at the Weserstadion. Marvin Ducksch gave the hosts a first-half lead, only for Anthony Modeste to level the scores for Köln in the second period. The result keeps Werder Bremen's faint European hopes alive, albeit temporarily, while Köln continues to push for Champions League qualification.
