[edit] 1925-1936 (The Beginning)

Schalke: 3 victories, 0 draws, 0 losses

[edit] History

The rivalry began with a 4-2 Schalke victory on May 3, 1925. Schalke's style of play was described by a newspaper as a wandering ball from man to man in a series of short, flat passes. The "Schalker Kreisel" (literally: the Schalke gyroscope, or spinning top) was born. Schalke won all three matches played in the years 1925-1927. The teams would not meet again until the creation of the Gauliga in 1936.

Schalke dominated the early meetings, winning 14 matches, and losing only once, with one match played to a draw. August Lenz's goal on November 14, 1943 secured Dortmund's first ever victory against Schalke.

[edit] 1963-2006 (Bundesliga and German Cup Era)

Dortmund: 27 wins, 21 draws, 25 losses

[edit] History

The creation of the Bundesliga in 1963 began with Dortmund continuing their winning ways, by taking 8 of the first 10 meetings.

Schalke's 1-0 victory on April 20, 1968, saw the return of Schalke's fortune and the fall of Dortmund. After Dortmund's 0-3 defeat on March 4, 1972, and subsequent relegation from the league, the teams would not play each other again until 1975.

After Dortmund's return to the Bundesliga, Lothar Huber's goal in the 87th minute on November 5, 1977 would give Dortmund their first victory over Schalke in nearly ten years. The following years would belong to Dortmund, winning eleven matches to Schalke's six, culminating in a 3-2 victory in a German Cup match on December 9, 1988. Schalke's relegation after the 1988-89 season would result in these teams not playing again until the 1991-92 campaign.

Schalke's next Revierderby would be remarkable. With Schalke managing only three goals in their first four matches after returning to the Bundesliga, Dortmund seemed assured of continuing their success. On August 24, 1991, in front of over 70,000 fans, former Dortmund midfielder Ingo Anderbrügge scored in the 2nd minute to put Schalke ahead 1-0. However, Dortmund would equalize in the 36th and the 1st half would finish with the scored tied 1-1. In the 2nd half, Schalke exploded, stunning Dortmund 5-2. Dortmund's overall success that season would eclipse the defeat, winning the next Revierderby 2-0, and finishing the league in second place that year, tied in points, but losing out to VfB Stuttgart on goal differential.

The following years would see Schalke holding a slim advantage since 1991, winning 11, drawing 14, and losing 8 of the matches. Despite Schalke's recent Revierderby success, including losing only two derbies since 1999, Dortmund holds the advantage in overall success during this era, winning three Bundesliga championships, one UEFA Champions League competition, and one Intercontinental Cup since 1995, while Schalke won the UEFA Cup once and the German Cup twice.
