No. 10 and Striker

Everything he does looks slick. I bet he looks sharp when he’s eating his cereal in the morning too. This was a relatively quiet match for Amine Harit on the scoresheet, but underneath it all, he was monumental. His play in transition is just unstoppable. He did rocket one off the crossbar, denying Benito Raman a deserved second assist, but this was a match woven by Harit, as they so often are.. CAM. FC Schalke. AMINE HARIT. 7.6

FC Schalke. BENITO RAMAN. 7.7. <strong>Man of the Match.</strong> Very, very quick feet, on and off the ball. Had trouble with finishing early on, but made quick amends with a tremendous back-and-forth with Caligiuri, notching a sterling assist by drawing out defenders and flicking it on to his teammate. Creates another level of opportunity for Die Knappen when he can get into space over the top. Longballs become a constant threat, and it nearly paid off in the 52nd minute when he should have nabbed a second assist, if only the crossbar had been an inch higher. A fantastic match from Raman. Shame to see him come off early, because he was the biggest threat throughout.. ST
