Hertha defender Arne Friedrich is hopeful of being ready for his side's third round, first leg tie against Fulham, despite suffering from an ankle injury.
DespiteKennyscoring the final goal, with an excellent right-footed strike from the right top corner of the penalty area, it was actually Schalke's first goal this season scored by one of their own players - following a 0-0 draw in the first game before a 3-0 loss to Bayern Munich and two own goals being turned in against
Hertha.
Hertha, who finished 11th last season, cancelled out Lewandowski's opener with two unusual goals to take a surprise lead in the first half and ultimately deal an early blow to Bayern's title defence."We didn't play badly, and they barely had a shot.
Hertha will pay the player's full wage and, as is customary for loan moves from Anfield, will be penalised if Grujic fails to appear in a certain number of games.
Hertha extended their lead in the 74th minute, and that goal sparked a frenetic finish, with Obiero responding with a goal within seconds of the restart.
Grujic, who has flown to America on
Hertha's 10-day end-of-season tour, is under contract with the Reds until 2023.
Hertha are on a dismal run of six games without a win.
He recently held talks with
Hertha sporting director Michael Preetz with Boyata, 28, offered the bumper deal that he reportedly accepted.
The Serbian, 22, has been so impressive in the German capital that
Hertha manager Pal Dardai recently hailed him as "by far the best midfielder" he'd seen in 20 years' involvement with the club.
They also quote coach Pal Dardai as saying: "I've been with
Hertha for 22 years.
"This is no insult to the others but Marko is by far the best midfielder I've seen at
Hertha during this period."
