Schalke 1-1 Galatasaray Gol Hamit Altıntop
Schalke had been to Borussia Dortmund as the second German team in the top eight in Europe. But now this bitter off!
It starts so well. 17th Minute: Farfan corner, Höwedes is blocked, then hampered Matip goalkeeper Muslera so Neustaedter comes to the ball and hits with the left. 1:0!
Altintop then the hammer! 37th Minute: Gala captain Inan is pushing a free-kick to Altintop. Standing 35 meters in front of goal and hammered the ball into the right corner. From the post, the ball smacks into the net. 1:1!
Altintop cheered wildly, points to the gala crest on his jersey. He played from 2003 through 2007 for Schalke, mother Meryem lives only seven kilometers away from the arena.
It gets worse. 42nd Minute: misplaced pass by Neustaedter, Inan skin the ball forward. Turks Star Yilmaz shakes Höwedes, goalkeeper Hildebrand comes out, Yilmaz is first on the ball and hits. 1:2! The ninth goal for Galatasaray this season, the eighth of Yilmaz!
