The story in brief
5-second readKöln and Union Berlin will lock horns in the second round of the DFB-Pokal tie on Tuesday night.
From the source
Köln and Union Berlin will face twice in the space of five days as their first clash gives Rene Wagner's side a home advantage in a cup tie.
Köln's unbeaten home run extended with a goalless draw with newly-promoted Schalke on Saturday. René Wagner's men had the better chances, but they failed to find a way to beat Loris Karius in Schalke’s goal.
All 18 Bundesliga clubs advanced to the second round, but the four-time cup winners were trailing 3. Liga outfit Würzburger Kickers by half-time. Isak Johannesson scored his first brace for the club to avoid an early cupset.
