It was the Billygoats' first away point of the league season.
The pair shared a pitch for Cologne's senior team for the first time as 21-year-old Malek fired into the roof of the net on 79 minutes. His 20-year-old brother's cross had somehow found its way to him across the packed Union box.
Germany winger Saïd had earlier missed Cologne's best chance up to that point when he shot over, moments after Malek had been introduced from the bench. The older but less experienced brother showed his sibling how it was done having only been on the field for seven minutes.
Union had seized an early lead when Janik Haberer scored his second goal in two games having gone two seasons without netting in the league. The midfielder-turned-wingback prodded home after good work by Tim Skarke.
The capital club are in the relegation play-off spot with seven points from eight games, while Cologne are 12th on nine.
