Leipzig's women's soccer team is still waiting for its second road win. The team from Saxony let a lucky lead slip away just before halftime.

The RB Leipzig women's soccer team lost their away game against 1. FC Köln 1-3 (1-2) and thus remain just four points ahead of the first relegation spot. The team from Saxony came under immense pressure early on but took a 1–0 lead thanks to an own goal by Cologne goalkeeper Lisa Schmitz (20th minute).

Before halftime, the hosts turned the game around. Lydia Andrade (38th minute) and Vanessa Leimenstoll (40th minute, making it 2-1) turned the game around within two minutes. With her second goal, former Leipzig player Andrade sealed Cologne’s fifth win of the season.
