STUTTGART: Stuttgart secured a 4-1 victory over Cologne in a Bundesliga home match on Friday, marking a strong comeback from their opening-day defeat to Bayern Munich. Bilal El Khannouss led the scoring with a brilliant individual goal and Josha Vagnoman added a stunning long-range volley. Grischa Proemel, the goalscorer, expressed his joy over the win, emphasizing the team's focus on bouncing back after the Bayern loss.
The match saw El Khannouss, a former Leicester winger, nutmeg two players to score a low strike, describing his goal as "pure instinct." Just before halftime, El Khannouss set up Proemel for the second goal. Erik Demirovic added a third in the 65th minute, and Vagnoman scored a dramatic equalizer in the last minute with a clearance into his own net from outside the box.
Cologne managed to pull one back through debutant Mikey Moore, but Stuttgart maintained their lead until the final whistle.
