Schalke scored twice in the final 17 minutes to score their first home win of the season against Champions League Group B rivals Benfica.

The Royal Blues had looked like they would endure another frustrating evening at the AufSchalke Arena until their Peru forward Jefferson Farfan put them ahead in the 73rd minute.

Summer signing Klaas-Jan Huntelaar then added a second five minutes from the end to continue the Gelsenkirchen club’s recent revival.

Schalke are now unbeaten in their past three games in all competitions, with Huntelaar scoring in all of those, in a run which ended their horrendous five-game losing sequence.
