BERLIN — Cologne briefly forgot about its league troubles with a 3-1 win at Hertha Berlin in the second round of the German Cup on Wednesday.
The visiting side scored as many goals through Simon Zoller, Dominic Maroh and Christian Clemens at Berlin’s Olympiastadion as it had in its entire league campaign to date.
Cologne, which parted company with Joerg Schmadtke as managing director on Monday, is bottom of the Bundesliga with seven defeats and two draws in nine games. It is also yet to win in the Europa League, yet finds itself in the third round of the German Cup after victories over Hertha and fifth-tier side Leher TS.
Wolfsburg defeated Hannover 1-0 at home to give Martin Schmidt his first win as coach after five draws in the league.
Stuttgart won 3-1 at second-division Kaiserslautern, and second-division Nuremberg won 3-2 at third-tier side Osnabrueck.
Bayern Munich was playing at Leipzig later Wednesday, when Werder Bremen faced Hoffenheim, and Freiburg was also in action.
