BERLIN (Reuters) - RB Leipzig missed the chance to move into second spot when they suffered a shock 2-1 home defeat by Bundesliga basement side FC Cologne on Sunday, while Schalke 04 jumped up to third with a 2-0 win at 10-man Bayer Leverkusen. Leipzig seemed headed for a narrow victory after taking a fifth-minute lead through Jean-Kevin Augustin but were stunned by two late goals against a Cologne side who remain bottom. Our performance in the second half wasn't like us at all," said Leipzig's Sweden winger Emil Forsberg. Schalke striker Franco Di Santo said: "We came here with the mentality that we needed the three points. Dortmund have 40 points along with Schalke, with Eintracht Frankfurt, who lost 1-0 at VfB Stuttgart on Saturday, on 39 while Leverkusen and Leipzig are level on points with 38.
