Almost the equaliser!

Long-range shot!

Therkelsen leads a Kiel counter-attack and decides to take a shot from about 20 metres centrally in front of goal. Karius can't properly judge the swerving ball and somewhat luckily punches it away to the side.

He has to score that!

After a brilliant attack down the left flank, Karaman receives the perfect pass and really only needs to tap it in from five metres, but he doesn't connect with the ball properly and squanders this huge opportunity!

Now a Schalke player is booked too

Katić leaves his leg out and catches Therkelsen - Yellow card!

Miron Muslić on facing Kiel

"The balance between offence and defence was and continues to be the key. We managed that in the first half of the season. Due to absences and new signings, the structure has changed somewhat. Now we need to find this balance again – that will happen sooner rather than later."
