Schalke unlucky!

Aydin cuts inside and crosses. Karaman gets to the ball in the middle but can't turn it towards goal, but his touch changes the flight enough though so that Sylla also misses it at the far post. That should have been a goal!

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).
Hardly any chances, three goals - 1. FC Nürnberg prove their ruthless streak in front of goal. Klose will be proud.

Klose has the golden touch

Just brought on by his new boss, who is making his home debut, Rafael Lubach extends the hosts' lead! First the defensive midfielder wins the ball, then he is perfectly positioned in the quick counterattack and taps in a ball after Schleimer's shot. 3-1!

It's 10 vs 10!

Jander catches Gantenbein on the foot while pressing and gets a second yellow to go with the one he was shown in the first half. He's put Nuremberg ahead, but wiped out their man advantage.

Still no Nürnberg shot on goal

The Nürnberg players are having massive problems whenever they get near the Schalke penalty area - and they rarely even get there. Nürnberg have zero shots on goal compared to Schalke's five attempts.

Bachmann!

Karaman plays it out wide to Gantenbein on the right, who crosses perfectly for the unmarked Bachmann - his header is solid, but is denied by a strong save from Reichert.

Karaman!

Danger now from the throw-in! Gantanbein passes to Bachmann, who heads it on to Højlund. The striker lays it back from the by-line, first Sylla misses, then Karaman shoots - but wide left! First good chance of the game.

Kaminski a late change

With Seguin suffering an injury in the warm-up, Kaminski was a late addition to the starting XI for Schalke.

FCN struggling

Nuremberg are trying to build up play, but Schalke are not giving them any space so far, and are looking for quick counterattacks themselves.
