Lakenmacher!
Now a simple long ball is enough to put Schalke in trouble. Kalas nicks the ball off Lakenmacher's foot at the last moment, though, just as he was poised to shoot.

Lidberg again!
Kamiński takes himself out of the game on the right side of defence, missing the ball completely! That allows Lidberg a clear path towards goal, and he sinks a brilliant finish into the top corner. From 3-0 down at the break, to 3-3 with around 15 minutes still to go!

Karaman!
This time the captain takes the shot himself. First from a low free-kick cross from the right, then more dangerously on the rebound, with Schuhen at full stretch to push it behind.

Almost!
Younes plays a one-two with Karaman on the edge of the penalty area, then aims a low shot towards the left corner, only to be denied by the quick reactions of Schuhen.

Post! Pinball! Goal!
Schalke are too fluid and too quick for the visitors! Murkin's involved on the left, with his cross finding Sylla for a shot against the woodwork. Schuhen saves the rebound, but Syllas is there to bundle in at the third attempt. The Royal Blues now lead 2-0!

Too imprecise
Younes plays a superb pass down the right flank. Antwi-Adjei has space to use his right foot, but his cross into the centre lacks precision, and Darmstadt can clear.

Darmstadt gaining momentum
Lidberg dribbles from the left towards the centre, taking on a shot from the edge of the penalty area. Once again, Heekeren needs two bites of the cherry, but is quick enough to prevent any Darmstadt player from reaching the ball.

At last!
There's the first shot from the Lilies as Corredor has a go from distance. Heekeren spills it, but recovers quickly enough to snatch the rebound away from the on-rushing Hornby.
