Silence followed for a moment here as everyone found it hard to believe what was going on. Hell, even Schalke players themselves were so dumbfounded, looking at each other confusedly. They probably still asked whether it was real or not.
Oh, it wasn't like they were surprised by the goal itself. No, as the team with a blitzkrieg attack as their main scheme to score a goal, getting one so quickly had never been a big surprise.
No, what really made them have this kind of bewildered reaction was how easy it was for them to get one, not having to face any resistance from Hoffenheim players at all. This also only involved two players since the beginning, Morita and Hoppe, so they didn't get the sense of involvement here.
Still, the silence itself snapped a second later, when Hoppe rushed immediately toward Morita after scoring a goal.
