Schalke recalled the game against Panathinaikos on September 11th
Schalke commemorated the match against Panathinaikos on September 11, 2001, the day of the terrorist attack on the Twin Towers, and showed that they do not forget the victims of the tragic incident.
On this day 21 years ago, the tragedy in the Twin Towers of New York shook all of humanity. On the same day, Panathinaikos meets Schalke in Geselkirchen for the Champions League groups.
The course of the race was in limbo due to the tragic incident, but eventually went on as usual. Giannis Kyrasta’s team achieved a magnificent 2-0 win thanks to goals from Goran Vlaovic and Angelos Basinas.
The Royal Blues have not forgotten this special encounter, not because of the outcome, but because of the terrorist attack that took place, which shows that they do not forget the victims.
