“It really well and went 2-0 up early on. When you do that you need to kill the game off and score more goals.

Nigerian forward, Anthony Ujah halved Bayern’s lead just before half-time as Cologne finished the half stronger.

Robben continued, “We didn’t do either and then we conceded at the worst possible time.

We didn’t start so well in the second half anddidn’t have the same aggression going forward with the ball.And after that Manuel [Neuer] made some brilliant saves. It was down to Manu that we won today.

“Without him maybe the gamewould have finished differently. I was very annoyed with myself after wasting a chance just before my goal.

“I wanted to pass to Frank and I should have played it better. If I had, he’d have made it 3-1 and that would have been game over.

“So I was still very frustrated at myself but I was also happy at scoring and putting the game to bed,” he added.Bayern lead the Bundesliga table – 11 points better than Wolfsburg, who play on Sunday.
