Schalke Surrender to Decent Düsseldorf

Düsseldorf welcomed Schalke to the Merkur Spile-Arena, with both sides in dire need of points.

The first half saw Fortuna emerge as the better side, but they couldn’t create any great chances. Schalke grew into the game and had a few spells, but couldn’t do much either.

The second half saw Schalke come out quicker, as they created a couple of chances as well. They finally got their reward when McKennie headed Oczipka’s free-kick into the back of the net.

But Düsseldorf bounced back, when Stöger’s free-kick was parried into the area, where Hennings was on-hand to head it in.
