Veltins-Arena saw a game that will be talked about for a long time among Schalke fans.
Towards the end of the match, the home team was losing 2:0, but they still managed to save themselves from defeat by playing 2:2, and the first goal was the work of Edin Dzeka.
After the game, Schalke coach Miron Muslić did not hide how much Edin Džeka’s presence in his team means.
He especially emphasized what was clearly visible on the field, the difference in quality, but also in the presence on the field.
“Edin has brought something that we’ve been missing for six or seven months. He’s that striker, a target-player who can keep the ball, who can impose himself against the physically strong stoppers that every team in this league has.
“The way he fought against two players gave us faith that we could do it and made a difference to the opponent,” said Muslić.
Jackie’s goal wasn’t just a goal to reduce the score. It was a moment that started the team, lit up the stands and completely changed the dynamics of the match. Schalke went from a losing team to a believing team.
In the end, the point won by Schalke may not solve all the problems, but it showed something extremely important, that with Edin Dzeko on the field, this team has support, authority and a figure around which a comeback can be built.
