"If any other player than Jones would have followed him,
he would have already scored then," said Klopp.
The Egyptian succeeded in putting Dortmund back
on track five minutes later by scoring a fine goal which reflected
his skills and ability to beat his man in narrow spaces. Zidan
also was about to make the impossible and score again when
his strike in the 85th minute was diverted for a corner by
Schalke keeper Neuer.
The comments from the club president and players
reflected the importance of Zizou's goal as well:
"Our team showed fighting spirit and even
when they were behind, they never lost their believe in earning
some points in front of 60.000 spectators," said a pleased
BVB president.
"We return home with the feeling of securing
a hard-fought draw," said Owomoyela. "Of course
this point feels better than the one last week against Cottbus
- but in the end it´s only a point. We really struggled
in the first half. But due to our second-half performance,
it´s a good result." And he added: "The trend
is in the right direction!"
