Maniche was Cologne's hero as his spectacular effort secured a 1-1 draw at home to Borussia Monchengladbach in Friday night's solitary Bundesliga game.

There were just 11 minutes left on the clock when he took Zoran Tosic's pass into his stride before registering with a fine strike from the edge of the box.

Earlier in the contest, ten minutes after the half-time interval, it was Borussia who took the lead as Marco Reus scored an individual effort as he ran past three Cologne players before producing a low finish.

The result hardly aids either sides' bid to move away from the drop zone, with Cologne having stretched their winless run to seven and Borussia five.
