Double strike ... Schalke striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar celebrates the first of his two goals (Getty Images)
Klaas-Jan Huntelaar scored twice as Schalke kept pace with the pack of leaders in the Bundesliga thanks to a convincing 4-0 home victory over Wolfsburg and ex-coach
Raul gave Schalke the lead after just 10 minutes and his fellow former Real Madrid striker Huntelaar made it 2-0 after 15 minutes. Joel Matip then ended any doubts as he increased the lead to 3-0 in the 49th minute before Huntelaar, after earlier failing to convert a penalty, netted his second in the 72nd minute.
Schalke's win halted a two-game winless streak and lifted it to 44 points - one behind third-placed Bayern Munich and still five points adrift of leader Borussia Dortmund.
In the day's other match, Hannover kept itself firmly in the hunt for the European spots with a 4-2 home win over Stuttgart.
