Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds WWK Arena will turn into a battlefield for FC Augsburg and FC Schalke 04.
- 5' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FC Schalke 04 that had 403 games and scored 308 goals.
- 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Tomas Kalas made 376 appearances and scored 4 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 15' 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 Felipe Sanchez suffering a number of foals already.
- 20' Supporters expect more eagerness from Chrislain Matsima, as he is very good at scoring at WWK Arena with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 25' Janik Bachmann needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 26' FC Augsburg is taking the lead after the goal scored by Alexis Claude Maurice on 26.
- 31' FC Schalke 04 is showing some good football. However, FC Schalke 04 are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 36' FC Augsburg is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 41' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.

- 59' Another substitution for FC Schalke 04 to replace Marcin Kaminski by Martin Wasinski on 59 minute.
- 64' It looks surprising FC Schalke 04 does not make any changes. Kenan Karaman has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
