Henning Matriciani putting his body on the line and preventing Dortmund from going 3-2 ahead in the 90th minute was a moment that reflected the passionate Schalke display in the Revierderby on Saturday (11/3), and a moment that might leave a more lasting impression than the four goals scored in the 100th Bundesliga match between the S04 and BVB. It was the final moment to reward the two-goal comeback on Saturday evening and earn Schalke a point against the team second in the table.
