Brutal efficiency and sheer will!
Schalke’s winning formula in the 2-0 win in Rostock, which is also so important for coach Dimitrios Grammozis (43), can be broken down to two stars. Striker Simon Terodde (33) and goalkeeper Martin Fraisl (28) let Royal Blue dream of a return to the Bundesliga – despite the scary first half.
Phenomenon Terodde and Feartlos-Fraisl: This is how Schalke can rise!
► Terodde phenomenon
Unbelievable: The cult clippers (152 goals in the second division) turned his first two chances into two stalls. Hit 9 and 10, already his 3rd brace this season! Hanover legend Dieter Schatzschneider (63/153 goals) has to be prepared for the fact that he will lose his record against Ingolstadt on Sunday …
Sports director Rouven Schröder (45) raved about BILD: “He is a phenomenon and at the same time totally down-to-earth. He pushes the boys, pushes them, is totally unpretentious. That is really good for us. ”Top striker and top type – Terodde can carry Schalke with him to promotion.
► Fearless Fraisl
The goalkeeper change from Ralf Fährmann (32) to Fraisl has worked out perfectly. Strong nerves, the Ösi prevented several impacts.
Grammozis on the keeper swap at Sky: “I don’t put up according to the duration of the contract, but the players who are the best for the next game.” Has Schalke found his promotion snapper? Fraisl is set with such achievements!

Good: In addition to Thomas Ouwejan (24 / already 3 assists), the right full-back is finally convincing in Rostock as a Terodde supplier. Grammozis on Mehmet Aydin (19): “He did an outstanding job. He took his chance. “
Terodde and Fraisl lead the way – and pull everyone else with them!
