  • 0' That's the starting whistle at Merkur Spiel-Arena. Ninety minutes of football awaits between TSV Fortuna 95 Düsseldorf and FC Schalke 04.
  • 5' Over 5 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 10' Christopher Antwi-Adjei has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 15' TSV Fortuna 95 Düsseldorf are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined FC Schalke 04 backline.
  • 20' TSV Fortuna 95 Düsseldorf started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 20.
  • 25' 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.
  • 30' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Jakob Fimpel will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 34' Giovanni Haag has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 34.
  • 35' It’s a booking for TSV Fortuna 95 Dusseldorf player. Jamil Siebert gets a card.
  • 40' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 45' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 47' FC Schalke 04 player sees a card in front of him.
  • 52' Moritz Heyer, a Germany centre-back, has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 57' Dawid Kownacki adds to his 0 season tally! TSV Fortuna 95 Dusseldorf lead 0-1 — and this changes everything.
  • 60' Amin Younes makes way for Mehmet-Can Aydin at the 60 minute mark. A tactical switch from FC Schalke 04.
  • 65' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 68' Danny Schmidt is replacing Dawid Kownacki for the TSV Fortuna 95 Dusseldorf side.
  • 73' 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 Pape Ba suffering a number of foals already.
  • 78' GOAL! Myron van Brederode scores on 78. Assisted by Danny Schmidt
  • 81' Taylan Bulut makes way for Anton Donkor at the 81 minute mark. A tactical switch from FC Schalke 04.
  • 86' Andre Hoffmann is ready to make an impact after coming on for Nicolas Gavory at the 86 minute mark.
  • The final whistle goes. A composed, disciplined performance from TSV Fortuna 95 Düsseldorf to claim maximum points.
