Köln vs Freiburg ended up 0-0 draw, this draw didn't bring anything blessing to any of these teams. till now Köln are in 17th position, with 24 points they are 5 points behind Mainz, so sad relegation is almost confirmed for Köln. On the other hand, Freiburg failed to come close to Frankfurt, they are 4 points behind and acquire 7th points with 41 points.

Köln has not been performing well in recent years. In the last couple of seasons, they have seen a steady decline. In this season they are currently in the relegation zone. And the way things are shaping up, I do not think they will be able to avoid relegation in this season anymore.

Actually, I think there is still a chance for them to at least play in the relegation playoffs. But even that idea looks really far away from reality.  In this season it looks like they are going to get relegated and I think if they actually get relegated, it is going to take them a long time to earn promotion again. Hard to believe that only one season ago they had finished on the seventh position and played in the Europa Conference League qualifier. I am talking about the 2021-22 season.
