Schalke 04 lost their first game of the new Bundesliga season 0-3 against FC Augsburg. The match was held in front of Jürgen Klopp, who celebrated his home debut as national coach and watched the matchup closely.

The Schalke team failed to impress and conceded defeat as early as the first half. Augsburg's Anton Kade stood out particularly, a performance that could prove significant for the national coach, as he positions himself as a potential new national player.

Klopp attended the game after being present at the season opener. This defeat marks a disappointing start to the season for Schalke, who had hoped for success but were unable to perform on the pitch.
