zweite Bundesliga
Beim Auftakt der 2. Bundesliga sorgt der FC Schalke für eine Überraschung und schlägt Aufstiegs-Favorit Hertha BSC mit 2:1.
Auf der Tribüne genießt auch Diletta Leotta (33), die Frau von Schalke-Schlussmann Loris Karius (32), den Top-Auftakt ihres Gatten – eine Glücksbringerin für den Ruhrpott-Klub.
Er bleibt gegen schwache Herthaner über weite Strecken des Spiels ohne Beschäftigung, kassiert erst kurz vor Schluss den Treffer zum Endstand durch Grönning (89.).
[–>Für Schalkes Neu-Trainer Miron Muslic (42) ist der Sieg ein Traum-Debüt!
Der Österreicher mit bosnischen Wurzeln kam vor der Saison für rund 700.000 Euro Ablöse vom englischen Zweitliga-Absteiger Plymouth Argyle, soll Schalke nach den zwei vorherigen Schrott-Spielzeiten (Platz 10 und 14) wieder stabilisieren.
Dafür setzt er auf intensiven Pressing-Fußball und trifft auch gleich eine überraschende Entscheidung. Bei seiner Premiere als Schalker Coach bringt er Peter Remmert (20) von Beginn an. Der erste Startelf-Einsatz für den Offensiv-Youngster.
Und der Muslic-Mut wird belohnt!
16. Minute: Remmert fällt im Strafraum-Duell mit Dardai, rappelt sich auf und legt den Ball in die Mitte zu Moussa Sylla (25). Schalkes Top-Knipser (16 Tore in der letzten Saison) trifft in die lange Ecke zum 1:0.
Schalke vorn – und die ausverkaufte Arena explodiert!
Die Atmosphäre setzt Hertha zu. Die Berliner bleiben bis auf den späten Grönning-Treffer komplett harmlos. Ein Auftritt, der den selbst ausgerufenen Aufstiegs-Absichten überhaupt nicht entspricht.
Die Gastgeber machen dagegen nach dem 1:0 einfach weiter. Und legen noch vor der Pause nach!
23. Minute: Eine Ecke von Antwi-Adjei nickt Nikola Katic (28) in seinem ersten Schalke-Spiel zum 2:0 ein.
Wegen Hugo Ekitiké: DIESER Stürmer soll Liverpool verlassen
Ein Treffer mit Beigeschmack. Die Ecke resultiert aus einem Freistoß, der für BILD-Schiedsrichter-Experte Manuel Gräfe (51) keiner ist. Beim Einsteigen von Leistner gegen Remmert sieht er kein Foul.
Gräfe: „Bei dem Freistoß, der vor dem Eckball zum 2:0 gepfiffen wurde, spielt Leistner erst den Ball und danach kommt es zum Zusammenprall. Das ist klar kein Freistoß.“
Ist Katic egal. Schalke holte den bosnischen Nationalspieler von Zürich für 450.000 Euro als neuen Abwehrboss. Der offenbar auch vorne gefährlich sein kann und so auch für den Schalker Super-Start sorgt …

How a card shop became a much-needed resource for the community
Greg Poole owns a card shop — and he doesn’t make a single penny off of it.Every dollar from Can’s Can HQ in Benton, Illinois, goes straight into the resource room attached to the shop, a space stocked with everything from beds and books to clothes and backpacks. Local teachers, social workers and youth organizations can walk in and find nearly anything they need to help members of the community — all for free.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementThe card shop is run through Poole’s nonprofit Can’s Can. His wife, two kids, parents, in-laws and a small group of eight core volunteers keep it going.“I dealt with a lot of trauma when I was growing up.

Secretariat’s jockey Ron Turcotte dies at 84
Ron Turcotte, the jockey who rode Secretariat to not just victory but a historically unmatched level of dominance, died Friday, his family announced. He was 84 years old.It was Turcotte atop Secretariat as it won the Triple Crown in 1973, setting speed records in the Kentucky Derby, Preakness Stakes and Belmont Stakes that still stand to this day. That Belmont performance in particular has become shorthand for leaving the field in the dust, with a record 31 lengths separating him and second place.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementThe racing world has yearned for a similar horse so much that every horse in all three Triple Crown races this year were descendants of Secretariat.Before Secretariat, Turcotte had won each of the Triple Crown races once, taking the Kentucky and Belmont with Riva Ridge the year prior and the Preakness with Tom Rolfe in 1965. His career […]
Alexander Zverev says he’s ‘on the right path’ at U.S. Open after seeking professional help
NEW YORK — Alexander Zverev, the world No. 3, said he started receiving professional help after revealing at Wimbledon he felt “very alone” and was “lacking joy in everything that I do.”Zverev said Friday he is in a much better place than he was when he made those comments, which came after a first-round loss to the unseeded Arthur Rinderknech of France on June 30.AdvertisementNearly two months later, Zverev says he’s “on the right path” after getting professional help — support he continues to receive — as he looks to revive a season that has largely disappointed since his run at the Australian Open in January.Zverev has lost three Grand Slam finals, including at the U.S. Open five years ago, and is considered by many to be the best player not to have won a major. After being outplayed by […]
Panthers star Matthew Tkachuk reportedly underwent surgery to repair torn adductor muscle, sports hernia
Florida Panthers wing Matthew Tkachuk has reportedly undergone surgery to repair a torn adductor muscle and sports hernia. Recovery from the procedure could keep him sidelined from the back-to-back Stanley Cup champions until January.Curiously, Tkachuk has been cagey with reporters about whether or not he would have the surgery, knowing how long of a recovery process it would involve.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementHe told ESPN's Greg Wyshynski in early August that he was still undecided about undergoing the procedure. Yet NHL Network and Sirius XM insider David Pagnotta reported on Friday that Tkachuk "underwent surgery a few weeks ago." Presumably, that would mean he'd already had surgery while saying that he was undecided about it.Tkachuk, 27, sustained the injury while playing for Team USA in the international 4 Nations Face-Off tournament that included Canada, Finland and Sweden in mid-February. He gained national notoriety during […]
