Elversberg onslaught
With long balls forward, the hosts are trying to force their way through. The Schalke defence is still holding firm though.

Rohr denied with his head
Pherai delicately chips a free kick from the left side into the box. The centre-back rises high and has a free header from five metres out, but doesn't get enough power behind the ball, allowing Karius to make the save!
90'
Stoppage time is underway
Five minutes separate Schalke from an away victory! Or will Elversberg come back? We'll find out soon enough.
86'
The seconds are ticking down
The hosts are putting in a lot of effort and are trying hard, but in the past few minutes they are not managing to create any dangerous chances. Schalke are using every chance they have to run down the clock.
83'
Energetic Elversberg
In the second half, the home side need an average of just eight seconds to win the ball back. In the first half, it took them significantly longer.
83'
Ball Recovery Time
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).

Just wide!
Mokwa is targeted with a sharp cross from the left, and he manages to get his forehead to it, but the ball whistles just past the right post.
76'
No way through
Elversberg are circulating the ball around the Schalke penalty area, but they can't find a way through the deep defensive block at this stage. However, there's still plenty of time left for a comeback!

Substitutions on both sides
Elversberg make a double change with Adam and Schmahl coming on as attacking subs, while Schalke becomes even more defensive with Gantenbein.

Petkov offside
After a cross, the right winger gets his head to the ball, but Karius manages to save it. Shortly afterwards, the flag goes up!
65'
Elversberg pressing forward
The home side want to force the equaliser with their numerical advantage. However, there are hardly any gaps opening up against the deep-lying Schalke side at the moment.
62'
Almost another dream goal!
Schalke are sitting very deep now and waiting to pounce on counter-attacks. Ljubicic does just that, winning the ball in his own penalty area and then breaking away. Just after he crosses the half-way line, he shoots without hesitation, but the ball goes narrowly wide of the right post.
59'
Penalty call chalked off
The referee initially pointed to the spot, but Pherai was clearly offside on the left side of the penalty area when he received the pass, before being fouled by Kuruçay. Play therefore continues with a free-kick for Schalke.
Ten men of Schalke take the lead!

Chance for Elversberg to take the lead
Pherai chases down the left during a break, and Mokwa is completely free in the centre and waiting for the square pass - which is too late and imprecise to lead to a shot.
46'
We're back underway!
Elversberg kick off the second period. Mokwa has come on for the goalscorer, Schnellbacher.

Schalke pick up steam
After a long passing sequence, Ndiaye breaks through on the left byline and delivers a sharp cross, but Elversberg clear it for a corner.
18'
Wagner cautioned
The Elversberg coach clearly wanted a foul awarded against Petkov and gets shown a yellow card for dissent.
17'
Schalke struggling

Eager Elversberg!
Günther is sent down the left with a brilliant through ball during a counter-attack. In the Schalke penalty area, he looks for Schnellbacher with a square pass, but the visitors' defence manages to clear the danger this time.

How will Schalke respond?
The visitors are not yet in the match in this opening phase and have mostly been chasing the ball.

First booking
Ndiaye goes in far too late against Petkov and steps heavily on his foot - that's a yellow card!

Chance for a second!
This time the attack comes from the left side and Günther plays a sharp ball across the goalmouth, but Pherai can't convert.
Elversberg take early lead!
