DESERVED WIN
They had to work hard for it, but it was a fully deserved win for Fortuna under their new coach Daniel Thioune, who created numerous chances and finally got the goals their play warranted.

TERODDE CLOSE!
With the last kick of the game, Terodde very nearly levels for the Royal Blues!
90'
FOUR MORE MINUTES
Plenty of time for something to change here, since Schalke have scored more late goals than any other side in Bundesliga 2 this season - 13 in the final 15 minutes of games!

SANE!
Almost an immediate impact from the sub, as Sane sends a volley just inches over the crossbar. Could there be a twist in the tale?
85'
GAVORY GOES CLOSE!
Gavory nearly scores after getting forward from his full-back position, but his effort is deflected behind for a corner!
83'
NOT DONE YET
Fortuna have conceded plenty of goals in the final ten minutes of games this season, so they cannot be sure of the points just yet.
78'
DE WIJS BOOKED
A foul on Palsson very similar to the one Palsson got away with in the first half, is sanctioned with a yellow card.
74'
GINCZEK OVER!
Another chance! Ginczek heads the ball over, though the offside flag is raised and it would at least have been checked by VAR.

70'
OOOOHWEJAN!
There is a reminder, if Fortuna need it, of how slender this lead is. Ouwejan's angled shot takes a deflection and misses the post by a matter of inches!
69'
NAREY WIDE
Another big chance for Fortuna with Narey screwing his shot wide, and Ginczek unable to turn it back towards goal at the far post. Will they pay for their profligacy?
64'
HENNINGS HEADER
Fortuna are looking to seal the deal here and another Hennings header has Fraisl flying to make the save.
61'
LEE DEBUT
Lee comes on to make his Schalke debut.
60'
HENNINGS IN DOUBLE FIGURES
Hennings now has 10 goals for the season – one more than his total of nine last term.
56'
HENNINGS HAS HIS GOAL!
It was in the air, and here it is - Narey turns provider, teeing up Hennings, who does not make any mistake this time from a similar position to the one he missed moments earlier.

TELLING THE STORY
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).

HOW DID HENNINGS MISS?
A gilt-edged opportunity for Fortuna's top scorer after a mistake by Itakura, but he places his shot straight at Fraisl from eight yards out!
51'
FIRST IN 429
After a drought of 428 minutes, Fortuna finally find the back of the net, and it is Narey's sixth of the season - just one shy of his personal best for a single season.
50'
HENNINGS HEADS WIDE
Another chance for Fortuna, who have shaken off the shackles. Hennings heads just wide of the near post, and the stadium is buzzing now!
48'
THERE IT IS!
At last! Fortuna have done it! Narey does not give up on a lost cause and pressures Schalke defender Kaminski into losing the ball, and he sweeps it past Fraisl!
46'
NO CHANGES
No changes at the break and the only change Thioune will want to see from his team is in front of goal.

SMASH AND GRAB
Fortuna dominated the first half, but Schalke struck with Idrizi netting his first goal in Bundesliga 2 to give the guests the lead, while Fortuna will be wondering what they have to do to end their long goal drought.

SEVEN AND COUNTING
Fortuna have now gone seven hours without scoring a goal...
45'
NEARLY NAREY AGAIN!
Narey curls an effort towards the far corner, but it's plucked out of the air easily by Fraisl.
42'
SCHALKE SHOCK!
Against the run of play, Zalazar gets free down the right wing and his low cross is missed by Terodde, but met by Idrizi at the far post, and he turns it into an unguarded goal! Schalke lead!
41'
WELL-WORKED FREE-KICK
Thioune only got to the Fortuna training ground on Wednesday, but that was a good move from a free-kick from them.
37'
NAREY OVER!
Since Ginczek's header against the post, this was the closest Fortuna have come to scoring, with Narey scooping the ball over the crossbar at the far post when he would likely have scored if he had hit the target!
34'
ZIMMERMANN OVER!
The first shot in a while comes from Zimmermann, who blazes over from 20 yards out. Still the hosts enjoying the better of this first half.

NEARLY NAREY

OPENING UP
Ouwejan has now had two efforts on goal, though this latter volley was more of a cross than a shot, and the game is starting to open up.
13'
TERODDE IS HERE
Finally an effort on goal from Schalke and Terodde warning that he is always a threat, even if he's only seen the ball once all game.
12'
ALL IN ONE HALF
Schalke are continuing to struggle to get out of their own half of the field, with Fortuna keeping the pressure up.
10'
CLOSE CALL!
Nothing comes from the third corner, but how close Fortuna were from opening the scoring there? After Ginczek's header came back off the woodwork, de Wijs' follow-up was blocked just in front of the line.
9'
SECOND CORNER
Fortuna increasing the pressure with their second corner and it almost results in a goal for Ginczek, who hits the woodwork. The ball goes behind for another corner.
8'
PALSSON OFF THE HOOK
Palsson commits a professional foul, but referee Osmers just has a word rather than showing the first yellow card of the game.

CONFIDENT FORTUNA
Often a change in coach provides an injection of belief in a team and, the way Fortuna have started, they do look more confident than in recent weeks.
キックオフ
TEAMS IN THE TUNNEL
Not long now before kick-off - can Fortuna respond to their managerial change, or will Schalke improve their promotion chances? We'll find out shortly!
"CAN'T CHANGE MUCH"
Thioune took charge on Monday, but he cautions that he cannot be expected to perform miracles in such a short period of time. "I can't change in five days what has happened in the 50 days before, but I've had a lot of talks with the players and the focus is on the future and not what has happened before," he told Germany's Sky Sport.
LEE DEBUT?
Donggyeong Lee is on the Schalke bench for the first time since making his move to the Gelsenkirchen club on transfer deadline day.
TWO CHANGES FOR SCHALKE
There are also two changes to the Schalke team from last week with Andreas Vindheim out and Salif Sane rested. Malick Thiaw and Marius Bülter come in, with the latter making his first start since the end of November.
TWO CHANGES FOR THIOUNE
Fortuna's new coach Daniel Thioune has kept changes to a minimum from the team he inherited, with Khaled Narey fit again and starting for Felix Klaus, while Rouwen Hennings returns ahead of Robert Bozenik, partnering Daniel Ginczek in the attack.
