Schalke take to the road and face Köln, who are coming off a heartbreaking loss 2 nights ago in the DFB Pokal against Leverkusen in a 3-2 extra time loss.
A slow and lots of mistakes on both sides to start and felt through the match, lots of passes not getting to players and sloppy plays.
Then at the 43rd minute Aydin, on a very innocent and easy play, tries to chest the ball back to his keeper Heekeren, but with no power behind his chesting the ball back to the keeper it drops in front of Heekeren and speedy Damion Downs capultizes on the loose ball that Mania is able to feed to him and a easy goal for Köln.
KÖLN 1 - SCHALKE 0
Half time and Köln go into the break with a lead.
A slow second half and the only biggest chance from either side is near the end of the match in added time and Karaman just can't reach the ball on a header from Kalas towards goal.
Full time, and Schalke lose their second match in a row.
With the end of MD21, Schalke are now only 6 points clear of the relegation zone.
