Schalke 04’s Harit dedicates match-winning goal to injured Senegal defender Sane

Schalke 04 match-winner Amine Harit has dedicated his fifth goal of the season to Senegal centre-back Salif Sane who picked up a knee injury in Sunday’s Bundesliga encounter.

The Royal Blues turned around a two-goal deficit to defeat Augsburg 3-2, thanks to Harit’s 82nd-minute solo goal at WWK Arena.

Earlier in the game, Sane was stretchered off in the ninth minute after a collision with Augsburg forward Florian Niederlechner.

With the game tied at 2-2 in the final 10 minutes, Harit produced a moment of magic by charging past Tin Jedvaj before slotting his effort into the back of the net.
