Schalke 04
FC Bayern München
Outstanding performance
FC Bayern München•MidfielderBayern München laid siege to Schalke's goal for ninety minutes, racking up 15 shots, 11 corners and 128 dangerous attacks compared to Schalke's meager 21, yet found no way through a stubborn home defense. Harry Kane came on at halftime alongside a wave of attacking changes - Musiala, Olise, Bischof - as Bayern threw everything forward, but six big chances went begging. Schalke, despite managing just 17% possession and 183 passes to Bayern's 914, dug in with 41 tackles and five crucial saves to frustrate their star-studded visitors. The result keeps Bayern's title credentials under scrutiny despite their dominance, while Schalke will take real satisfaction from a hard-fought point against one of Europe's giants.
