FC Köln and Borussia Dortmund played out an exciting Bundesliga clash on Sunday afternoon, ending in a 1-1 draw. Köln came into the match eyeing a potential European spot, while Dortmund was looking to narrow the gap with Bayern Munich at the top of the table.
The game kicked off with plenty of energy, and it didn’t take long for Dortmund to strike. In the 8th minute, Marius Wolf, a former Köln player, found himself one-on-one with Köln’s keeper Marvin Schwäbe and coolly slotted it home to give Dortmund an early lead.
Köln didn’t back down, though, and just before halftime, Sebastian Andersson leveled the score with a well-taken goal, making it 1-1 going into the break. Despite chances for both sides in the second half, no more goals came, and the teams ended up splitting the points.
One of the big highlights of the game, though, wasn’t on the field—it came from a young Köln fan in the stands. In the 61st minute, cameras caught the girl passionately screaming at Marius Wolf, who had once played for her beloved team. Her raw emotion and dedication have since gone viral, with many fans loving her enthusiasm for the game.
Marius Wolf himself noticed the clip and shared it on Twitter, captioning it: “Things we love about this game, pt. 145.” The moment has since gained over 12,000 upvotes on Reddit, with fans worldwide commenting on how great it is to see such passion in young football supporters.
With 11 games left in the season, Köln sits in seventh place, just four points away from securing a European spot. You can bet that young fan will be cheering them on the whole way, hoping to see her team make it to the big stage.
