Schalke face anxious wait after duo suffer injuries in collision

FC Schalke 04 are awaiting medical updates after Loris Karius and Robin Gosens suffered injuries during a collision in Sunday's 2-1 defeat to TSG Hoffenheim. Both players were forced off early in the second half, compounding Schalke's sixth consecutive match without a victory in the Bundesliga.

Manager Miron Muslic reported fears of a serious knee injury for Gosens, who recently returned to action, while Karius suffered facial cuts and lacerations. Both players will undergo medical examinations in Gelsenkirchen to determine the full extent of their injuries.
