Schalke welcomed Augsburg to the Veltins-Arena in a clash between the two teams with the longest winless streaks in the Bundesliga, knowing that a win would take them back to 6th in the table.
Schalke started well but Rami Khedira won a free kick for Augsburg early on, which Eduard Löwen converted with a thumping strike.
The Royal Blues dominated possession throughout, but failed to create any clear-cut chances in the first half.
The story of the second half was the same. In the 76th minute, a long ball and a mistake from Kenny allowed Sarenren Bazee to score.
