Thomas Reis: We have a clear target

Marius Bülter’s late, late winner in Mainz, coupled with the other results in the division over the following two days, means that FC Schalke 04 are no longer in the bottom three for the first time since matchday 8, something the Royal Blues will want to maintain until the end of the season. However, Thomas Reis’ side have an extremely difficult away game up next, as they travel to Munich to play FC Bayern on Saturday (13/5, 15:30 CEST). “We know what to expect,” said the head coach.
