Alex Král: It was a step in the right direction

Alongside Werder Bremen’s Romano Schmid, Alex Král was the fastest player on the pitch during Saturday’s match (05.11). The Czech was always involved in the action, showed lots of drive to get in front of goal and was almost able to celebrate his first goal in a Schalke 04 shirt. He was able to enjoy his 17th minute goal briefly before it was ruled out due to Kenan Karaman, who provided the assist, being in an offside position in the build up.

Thomas Reis: It’s possible to get something from every game

In the clash between the two promoted sides, FC Schalke 04 take on the challenge of SV Werder Bremen on Saturday (5/11, 18:30 CET). For head coach Thomas Reis, the opposition aren’t an unknown entity, having already faced them this season with his former club VfL Bochum. Unlike two months ago – in which the game ended with a Werder win thanks to two late goals – the head coach would like to have added to his own points tally this time when the final whistle goes.
