A simple finish after some great work by Dominick Drexler saw Simon Terodde write his name into the history books on Sunday (3/10) in Schalke’s 3-0 home win over Ingolstadt. Terodde’s goal – the third and final one of the afternoon – was already his 11th of the season and his 153rd overall in Germany’s second tier.
