The 2015 Colonia Cup was a summer football friendly tournament organized by German club 1. FC Köln and hosted at the RheinEnergieStadion in Cologne, from 1 to 2 August 2015. Besides the hosts, three other European teams took part: Porto (Portugal), Valencia (Spain), and Stoke City (England).[1]
The tournament consisted of four matches (two matches per day), with wins being awarded three points and losses awarded zero points. In case of a draw at the end of 90 minutes of play, a penalty shoot-out would take place to determine the winners. Additionally, each goal scored was rewarded with a point, regardless of the match outcome (penalty shoot-out goals did not count).[2]
