Full-time: Schalke 2-0 Jahn Regensburg

Schalke deservedly win against harmless Regensburg in a battle at the bottom. The Royal Blues were superior in all aspects and could have won by an even larger margin. After the Bundesliga 2's Matchday 12, Regensburg continue to prop up the table.

Time running out for the visitors

If Regensburg want to get anything out of this match, they need a goal quickly. At the moment, that doesn't look likely. Schalke have everything under control.

Another attempt

Regensburg advances courtesy of Ouro-Tagba, who then plays the ball in behind for Viet to shoot. His attempt is then blocked by Schallenberg.

He has to score!

Younes receives an ideal pass about 15 yards from goal. He tries to curl the ball the ball into the corner, but it goes narrowly wide.

Too passive

Jahn have shown little initiative in the second half, much like the first. They seem almost exclusively occupied with defending.

Deserved lead

information
xGoals
The xGoals value of a club is calculated from the sum of all goal probabilities (goals and shots on goal) of that team. During a match, it’s easy to see whether the club is performing better than expected (goals > xGoals) - or maybe even higher (xGoals > goals).
Schalke have a signicantly higher xG value, suggesting the scoreline is absolutely deserved.

Regensburg change in style

After conceding, Regensburg have abandoned their very defensive approach and are now pressing Schalke earlier. In the last few minutes, they have also seen much more of the ball.

Pröger blocked

Regensburg's right winger has a chance to shoot from just outside the penalty area and takes aim. Murkin though, blocks it for a corner, which doesn't come to much.

Schalke more tenacious

Early on, Schalke have been significantly quicker in regaining back possession. While they are winning the ball back every five seconds on average, Regensburg currently needs about five times as long!

Ball Recovery Time
Ball Recovery Time gives the time in seconds in which it takes a team to win back the ball following a loss of possession. It also allows conclusions to be drawn about a team's style of play. Only time when the ball is in play is counted (i.e. no breaks in play such as for goal-kicks, throw-ins etc).

Regensburg push forward

The visitors make their first foray forward. They fire in a couple of crosses, but no-one is there to get on the end of them.

Nice burst of speed

Murkin dribbles down the left and drives into the penalty area. However, an attempted one-two with Mohr doesn't work out and he loses possession.

First sign of danger

Sylla slips in the onrushing Mohr, who seemingly has a clear path to goal. However, he loses a bit of pace and is then caught by Breunig as the ball is cleared for a corner. There was more potential in that!

Gebhardt - Pröger, Wurm, Bulic, Breunig, Hein - Ernst, Geipl, Viet - Ganaus, Hottmann

Kees van Wonderen on Jahn

"We expect an organised team and that we will have more possession. We need to play with pace and get in behind Regensburg's defensive line."

Andreas Patz on Schalke

"Joy and enthusiasm play a big role when you get to play at Schalke in their stadium and in front of that crowd; it's something special. Nevertheless, we're not going there as tourists. We want to take something from the match. The focus is on us, on what we want to do and on being well-prepared for the game."

Seguin's form vs. Jahn

Paul Seguin played six times in Bundesliga 2 against Regensburg and won all six matches. One of them with Dynamo Dresden and five with Greuther Fürth.

Cup excitement

Apart from the aforementioned Bundesliga 2 games, there were also a couple of DFB Cup matches between Regensburg and Schalke. In the first round in 1954, the clubs initially drew 1-1, with Schalke winning the replay 6-4 (on 1 September 1954) after leading 3-0 and then trailing 3-4.

What's rare is wonderful

Schalke and Regensburg only previously faced each other in the league in the 2021/22 season. In their Bundesliga 2 fixtures back then, both matches resulted in home wins (4-1 for Jahn, 2-1 for Schalke).
