Soon enough, the players from both teams finally emerged from the tunnel.
However, they weren't alone on the pitch, as two guys stood on the sideline, ready to enter as well.
Those two wore different jerseys, clearly showing that both teams decided to make a quick change at the beginning of the second half.
For Dortmund, it was no surprise to see Jude Bellingham warming up there, as the man was going to replace Mahmoud Dahoud in the midfield.
As for Schalke, though, the new member of the team, one with the jersey number 26, Ao Tanaka, tried his best to calm down his nerves at this moment.
Yeah, Frohling finally decided to take a gamble, replacing Jonas Hofmann with Ao Tanaka who was deemed to not be ready for a Bundesliga game yet.
Waldoch and the physical team seemed to think that Ao Tanaka wasn't ready for the typical confrontation in this league yet, afraid that it would only affect the boy's mentality in a bad way.
