Karaman bejubelt das 1:0

Overview

  • Schalke won 2-0 away, with Kenan Karaman scoring from distance in the 10th minute and converting a penalty in the 56th.
  • The spot kick followed a VAR review after Rayan Ghrieb caught Ron Schallenberg in the face during a clearance attempt.
  • Schallenberg was treated for a bleeding wound and continued with a head bandage as referee Felix Bickel gave a foul for dangerous play.
  • The result marked Schalke’s fourth victory in six league games and lifted them temporarily to fourth in front of a sold-out 27,424 crowd.
  • Magdeburg created chances, including an Alexander Nollenberger shot saved by Loris Karius and a header ruled offside, but their losing run continued.
