Shalke team had a good season especially in the second half although they lost to werder bremen 4 1 they deserved to be promoted ,werder bremen team is not in the top form but they have a relatively easy game, they just have to focus they only need one point to directly get promoted.
The most important and right step was the dismissal of Dimitrios Grammozis after Schalke lost 3:4 against Rostock. After Mike Büskens was the new coach on matchday 26, Schalke only lost one game. That was 1:4 against Bremen. Sometimes it does not work to change coaches just before the end of the season. But this time it was worth its weight in gold.
