Events

Match Events

0' KICK OFF: Eintracht Braunschweig gets underway.
5' 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 Derry Murkin suffering a number of foals already.
9' What composure from Tobias Mohr! The Germany international strokes it home. 1-0.
14' Leon Bell Bell has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
19' FC Schalke 04 seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
24' FC Schalke 04 are deployed in a 4-2-3-1 today, looking to exploit space against Eintracht Braunschweig's 3-5-2 shape.
25' What a strike from Moussa Sylla! The score is 2-0.
30' Ermin Bicakcic has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
33' Goal! Kevin Ehlers scores his 1 goal in 199 matches.
38' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
39' It’s a booking for Eintracht Braunschweig player. Rayan Philippe gets a card.
44' It looks surprising Eintracht Braunschweig does not make any changes. Fabio Di Michele Sanchez has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
46' A change in the Eintracht Braunschweig ranks — Sidney Raebiger exits the field as Levente Szabo enters on 46.
51' Kenan Karaman picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
56' It is a cagey affair so far. FC Schalke 04 in their 4-2-3-1 trying to find a way past Eintracht Braunschweig's compact 3-5-2.
58' The whistle greets Leon Bell Bell as he departs to be replaced by Fabio Di Michele Sanchez.
63' The energy levels are beginning to show. Daniel Scherning might look to freshen things up shortly.
68' Another change for FC Schalke 04 made on 68 minute. Mehmet-Can Aydin leaves to be changed by Anton Donkor.
70' FC Schalke 04 receives a card for a hard tackle on 70.
73' A goal from the Turkey international Kenan Karaman! He fires home on 73 to make it 3-1!
77' The Eintracht Braunschweig manager makes a substitution. Fabio Kaufmann departs to be replaced by Walid Ould-Chikh.
78' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Walid Ould-Chikh.
82' Moussa Sylla adds to his 2 season tally! FC Schalke 04 lead 4-1 — and this changes everything.
83' Against the run of play, Kenan Karaman has scored! This game has turned on its head.
86' A tactical swap from Eintracht Braunschweig — Robert Ivanov on, Rayan Philippe off on 86 minutes.
88' Sebastian Polter gets the nod from FC Schalke 04. He replaces Kenan Karaman and will look to change the dynamic.
The referee brings this contest to a close. FC Schalke 04 take all three points.
