MATCHDAY 7: Schalke vs Preußen Münster

Schalke traveled about a hour away for their match against Münster.

The last time these two teams faced each other was back in 1990/91 Bundesliga 2. season.

Both these teams are founding members of the Bundesliga back in 1963.


After a crazy week which seen Schalke relive Wilmots and Garerts of their duties and U23's coach Jakob Fimpel taking over until a replacement coach is found,


Schalke played this match very carefully focused on controlling the ball, Münster did come out with purpose and tried to capitalize on a Schalke team looking for confidence.


A early chance at goal for Münster but the goal would be reviewed by VAR and the build up to the goal would be deemed offside and no goal.

Near the end of the half Schalke defender Kalas would make a huge block and clears the ball with authority.


The half time whistle goes and the teams head into the clubhouse tied at zeroes.


The second half starts and again Münster come out looking to score, Heekeren had to make some saves and a good shot just goes over the bar by Münster.


In the 53rd minute, it would Münster who are finally rewarded for their hard work and would open the scoring from a goal by Charalambos Makridis


Münster 1 - Schalke 0


Schalke would keep pushing and eventually get a equalizer, Moussa Sylla at the 67th minute would pounce all over the rebound from a Aydin shot on goal that the Münster keeper could only parry right to Sylla.


Münster 1 - Schalke 1


Schalke keeps on coming and at the 74th minute it would be Sylla again,

A pinball feel in the Münster box and finally Sylla has a clearance attempt go off him and gets over the goal line and Schalke take the lead.


Münster 1 - Schalke 2


Münster would keep coming at Schalke and Heekeren would stand his ground and make some great saves to keep all 3 pts for Schalke.


The full time whistle goes and Schalke win on the road and also come from behind to get this victory, from a Münster side who put everything against Schalke and would feel disappointed by this result.

This is Schalke's first away win of the season.

With his brace Sylla moves into a tie with Karlsruher's Zivzivadze as both players sit with 6 goals on top of the scoring leaders.
