Bundesliga: Enter Hennes the Ninth, FC Koln's living mascot

Bundesliga's FC Koln are of one the few clubs in the world to have a living mascot. The 71-year-old club has a billy goat named Hennes as their mascot and he made his league debut against Borussia Dortmund on Friday in front of 50000 supporters at the RheinEnergieStadion.

The blessings from the billy goat helped Cologne start the game on the front foot in their first home game of the season. The early pressure paid dividends as Dominick Drexler scored the opening goal for the hosts. But Dortmund came back from behind to win the game 3-1, with Jadon Sancho grabbing a goal and an assist in the second half.
