+++ Update live ticker +++
After the game: Many S04 fans are frustrated. Due to the blunders of the competition, Schalke had a great opportunity today to set an exclamation mark in the fight for promotion. But the courage was lacking over long stretches. Holstein earned the draw.
Enough! It remains a draw. OK for Kiel, disappointing for Schalke. But apart from a big phase of pressure at the beginning, there wasn’t enough from the S04 to earn a win here.
85th: Crunch time begins. Both try to score the winning goal, but none with the last risk. Especially for Schalke, the draw at home should not be enough.
73. GOOOOOR for Schalke!
The answer comes quickly! Palsson puts through to Terodde, who doesn’t need to be asked twice in front of Kiel keeper Dähne. Tunnel, goal, balance!
67 .: GOOOOOOR for Kiel!
The guests take the lead. Bartels seemed to have missed a promising opportunity in the penalty area. But in the back room, Mühling gets the ball and shoots the thing fantastically into the net. Untenable. 1:0 Kiel!
63rd: Double changes at the S04, Churlinov and Idrizi have to give way for Bülter and Drexler.
60th: We’re still waiting for the first chance of the second half.
52nd: What started out as a fiery game has turned into a sleeping pill. Both defensive lines are secure, but are simply not lured out of reserve by the opponent.
46th: It’s on to Schalke, both teams are back on the pitch unchanged.
Break! After a furious start, Schalke and with it the quality of the game dropped a bit. Hopefully that will pick up speed again in the second round.
35th: Kiel now has the upper hand a bit without being able to create any clear chances.
20th: After a super start, the S04 is now a little out of breath. The big attack mode is over.
14th: Sensational S04 Attack is not rewarded. Zalazar drives from the center, lightning-fast combination via Terodde and Idrizi, in the middle Churlinov just misses the shot on an empty goal.
5th: Fiery start on the other side, Terodde directs a Palsson cross with his thigh to the crossbar.
4th: What was that?! A bad misunderstanding in Schaölke’s defense almost leads to an own goal. Sané and Fraisl disagree after a cross, the ball rolls towards the line. At the last moment, Sané irons out the mistake.
3rd: Schalke starts powerfully. The first 3 minutes all take place around Kiel’s penalty area.
1st minute: Get in the game! The game is on, Schalke starts in attack mode and Ranftl gets a free kick in a good position after a few seconds. But X Ouwejan’s cross from the right only finds a Kiel buyer.
1:20 p.m.: It starts in ten minutes, unfortunately once again in front of an extremely sparse backdrop. The pandemic and above all the spread of the Omicron variant again only allows 750 spectators. The Schalke Arena looks deserted.
12:51 p.m.: With this starting XI, Grammozis nailed it. Very few people would have typed that. We will soon find out whether the courage to change pays off. Incidentally, the people of Kiel are countering it with a lot of offensive power.
12:32 p.m.: Schalke’s line-up is here – and it’s a real hit! Terodde is right back in the starting line-up, but Grammozis put Marius Bülter on the bench! Captain Latza and Dominik Drexler are also stewing on the reserve bench for the time being! And: Salif Sané starts and both Norwegian newcomers are already in the squad.
12:22 p.m.: The head of the party is called Sven Waschitzki. The 34-year-old referee has officiated a few Bundesliga 2 games so far. There was no Schalke game. It will be a reunion for Kiel. Waschitzki officiated the first half game of Kiel against Hansa Rostock. Kiel lost the game 2-0.
11:37 am: And suddenly a new transfer rumor popped up. Schalke are said to be on the “South Korean Messi”. Here all information >>>

2:32 p.m.: A look at the table: While Schalke is playing for promotion in the upper ranks, the guests have to be careful not to slip into the relegation battle. Marcel Rapp’s team still has a four-point buffer for relegation.
1:12 p.m.: Great news for the miners! Top scorer Simon Terodde is said to be celebrating his comeback after surviving corona disease. “He took part in the whole program on Friday and made a good impression,” announced his coach Dimitrios Grammozis at the pre-game press conference. “If nothing comes up, he will play,” he said again clearly.
