Events
Match Events
- 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at BayArena!
- 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Lars Bender made 541 appearances and scored 5 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 10' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Omar Mascarell suffering a number of foals already.
- 15' Lucas Alario adds to his 1 season tally! Bayer 04 Leverkusen lead 1-0 — and this changes everything.
- 20' FC Schalke 04 is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 25' With 0 assists to his name this season, Lukas Hradecky is clearly more than just a goal scorer for FC Schalke 04.
- 29' Controversy at the stadium! Daniel Caligiuri argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.

- 48' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 53' Benito Raman is having his name booked by the referee on 53.
- 58' Both keepers have barely been tested. Bayer 04 Leverkusen and FC Schalke 04 are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 60' Moussa Diaby has so much to prove this time. He replaces Leon Bailey on 60 minute.
- 65' Charles Aranguiz, a Chile , has 25 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 70' Ahmed Kutucu gets the nod from FC Schalke 04. He replaces Guido Burgstaller and will look to change the dynamic.
- 71' The Bayer 04 Leverkusen bench stirs into life. Kai Havertz is withdrawn and Nadiem Amiri gets his opportunity.
- 76' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Bayer 04 Leverkusen and FC Schalke 04 are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
