The Chinese media are deliberately playing up the Chinese derby in the Ruhr area, and the German media and the mainstream European media are deliberately guiding the players of both sides into the 'trap' they have designed. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

For a popular regional derby like the Ruhr derby, which is one of the top 10 in the world, players must join the war of words to create greater public opinion.

With the passage of time, under the deliberate guidance of the media, the Brazilian international Raphinha, who was directly sent off in the first half of the season, couldn't help but be interviewed by the local media, he said: "When we return to our home stadium, we will definitely avenge the loss of the away game in the first half of the season! We want to let the 'vampires' know who is the king of the Ruhr area!"

Raphinha's remarks were naturally supported by Schalke 04 fans, and even after he spoke, he found that Twitter had a lot of fans, especially female fans.

Shahin, who was sent off for playing with Raphinha, unscrupulously ridiculed Raphinha in an interview with the German "Kicker": "Some people choose to exaggerate themselves to describe themselves as extremely powerful when they are not capable, but we in Dortmund are different, we don't need a reason to be strong!"

Shahin's implication is that Raphinha can only speak big words, and he doesn't have much of a level at all.

The media added fuel to Shahin's words to Raphinha's ears, and he was almost not angry, and he said angrily: "Dortmund is strong? This is the biggest joke I've ever heard!

"The ignorant should keep their mouths shut! Victory belongs to Dortmund!"

Tang Zheng, one of the focal points of the first half of the season, also joined the war of words.

At that time, it was originally a contradiction between Tang Zheng and Raphinha, if Shahin didn't take the lead, Tang Zheng was very likely to teach Raphinha how to be a person, and now that he knows that Raphinha fired at Shahin through the media, he naturally won't sit idly by.

Next, veteran Asamoah also joined the war of words.

At the same time, the managers of both sides also used media platforms to fight in the air.

Magath first said that only Schalke 04 were eligible to represent the Ruhr area, and then said they would beat Borussia Dortmund at home to the Fairtings Arena and still win by a big margin.

Borussia Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp, although he is not particularly good at the war of words, also knows the truth that cannot be coaxed at critical times, he said in an interview with Bild: "You want to beat us by a big score? This is an international joke, right? We won in the last round, they lost in the last round, or ...... Did I hear me wrong?"

Magard's lungs almost blew up when he heard Klopp's response, but he knew he wasn't the kind of manager who was very good at fighting with words, so he consciously kept his mouth shut at this time and focused on preparing for the Ruhr derby at home at the weekend.

The managers of both sides hung up their exemption cards, and the players could not resist the restlessness in their hearts, and they used all available platforms to attack each other.

The long-lost Ruhr derby showed their hotness off the field.

Of course, it's not that they have any personal grudges, but this game is quite crucial.

In the past 23 rounds of the 2009-2010 Bundesliga season, Dortmund has reached fourth place in the league with their recent good performances, only one point away from third-placed Schalke 04, which means that this Ruhr derby not only represents a class struggle, but also a competition for next season's Champions League spot!

Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich are currently tied on 51 points in the league, but Bayer Leverkusen are at the top of the table on goal difference, while third-placed Schalke 04 are third with five points and Borussia Dortmund are fourth with 45 points, just two points ahead of fifth-placed Hamburg.

With eleven rounds left in the league, Schalke 04 naturally don't want to lose the chance to compete for the league title, so the next league games are not to be lost for them.

The same is true for Borussia Dortmund, who are aiming for a top-four finish this season, but are in good form at the moment.

Most of them are young people with momentum, they don't want to rest on their laurels, and they are only six points away from Bayern at the top of the table, which is not much, just two win points.

Coupled with the Hamburg behind him, there is naturally no room for error, otherwise once Dortmund loses points away from home, and Hamburg beats Bayern in an upset, the league rankings of the two sides will be exchanged.

While Tang Zheng was actively preparing for the weekend Ruhr derby, he also cooperated with Shahin to open his fire towards Raphini in an interview with the media, in order to affect Raphinha's state in the weekend league.

According to Tang Zheng's research on Raphinha, the Brazilian international's temper is a bit fiery.

Schalke 04's defense on the right side is where Tang Zheng is ready to focus on exploiting.

At the same time, the Chinese international Hao Junmin, who plays for Schalke 04, actively trains with the team and strives to integrate into the team in the shortest possible time.

The biggest problem with the team now is the language barrier, and the goal conceded in the last game was the lack of communication between him and the centre-back, which allowed Grafete to find a vacancy.

In addition, the Chinese media has been particularly crazy recently, constantly hyping up the 'Chinese Derby' in the Ruhr area.

To put it bluntly, Artemisia Junmin was very unconvinced.

Everyone is Chinese, how can there be such a big difference?

Of course, Artemisia Junmin is also self-aware.

He has only been in the team for a month, and his strength is not as good as Tang Zheng, how can he get the main force when he first arrives?

Didn't Tang Zheng, who entered the Bundesliga last summer, also played three substitute games to get the main position?

With a good attitude, Hao Junmin no longer pays attention to the 'Chinese derby' in the Ruhr area hyped by the Chinese media, and he focuses all his attention on the preparation of the league, and he believes that his own opportunity will eventually come.

Magath was particularly upset about ending the war of words, and the Chinese media asked him the same questions almost every day.

It is undeniable that Artemisia Junmin is an outstanding presence among Chinese players, but there is still a certain gap compared with Tang Zheng, and it is a little difficult to stand out in the current Schalke 04 team, and he was given 75 minutes of performance time in the last round of the league, but unfortunately he did not seize the opportunity.

In this case, you can still count on yourself to give him a chance at a crucial battle like the Ruhr derby?

What international jokes?

Looking at the Chinese reporters waiting on the periphery of the training ground, Magath's brow furrowed deeply.

Suddenly, he had a feeling that he wanted to ban Artemisia Junmin.

But soon, he let go of that thought.

He saw that Hao Junmin's training attitude was very positive, and his condition seemed to be better than last week's training in the team.

The main right-back Raphinha will start the Ruhr derby at home to Borussia Dortmund, with Asamoah and Farfan in right midfield, but if he can maintain his training form until the day before the start of the league, he could consider giving him some playing time to play in his familiar position.

On the day of the game, Schalke 04 fans wearing blue jerseys and holding blue fan scarves could be seen everywhere outside the square of the Battlens Arena, even though there was still half a day before the start of the game.

There are also a lot of Dortmund fans 40 miles away, but there are still a lot fewer than Schalke 04 fans at home.

And they're also the focus of the security staff at Fairings Arena, and they're always nervous, like a big enemy.

The time of the Ruhr derby did not take care of the Chinese fans, and it was played at 8:30 p.m. local time in Germany, that is, at 3:30 a.m. Beijing time.

If you want to watch the ball, you have to stay up late.

At about 6 p.m. on February 26, the entire Dortmund team walked from the lobby of the hotel to the parked bus.

By this time, night had already covered the whole of Gelsenkirchen.

Tang Zheng couldn't help but look up at the night sky, and he felt the unique smell of the city.

Because the taste is very unique, it is like the temperament and grace of a woman who has washed away the lead after experiencing the wind and snow.

But he doesn't like the city, he prefers the human touch of Dortmund.

Nearly 500 metres away from the Fairtings Arena, the Borussia Dortmund players were surrounded by fanatical Schalke 04 fans, but under the influence of stadium security and the local police, nothing out of the ordinary was done, but the bus moved slowly.

Schalke fans booed and middle fingers!

There are even many Schalke fans who hold up the ugly image of the Dortmund players.

Among them, the most conspicuous is Tang Zheng.

As a Borussia Dortmund thigh-level player, he has become the main target of Schalke fans, especially after his war of words with Raphinha, he has become the number one target of Schalke fans, and his Twitter account has even been hacked by Schalke fans who are proficient in hacking techniques.

Fortunately, Dortmund fans, who are proficient in hacking techniques, reacted quickly and immediately came back, but they didn't make any moths.

"Childish!"

Tang Zheng looked through the window glass and looked at the Schalke fans outside like a sea of blue and gave comments.

Hummels, who was sitting next to him, smiled: "I bet you will be sprayed into slag by the fans who are proud to go to Schalke Stadium!"

"Are you talking about yourself?"

Tang Zheng countered.

“……”

The bus was surrounded by Schalke 04 fans, and it was moving very slowly, and it was already half an hour later when it stopped at the stadium to set its location.

Five hundred meters, half an hour.

It's not usually slow.

By the time the Dortmund players had changed into their training shirts from the dressing room and entered the Testings Arena, the long-awaited Schalke fans erupted in loud boos.

And, of course, the endless middle finger.

There seems to be only one color left in the whole stadium - blue!

Schalke fans defend the club's glory as if they were their own sons and daughters.

Football has risen to become an indispensable part of the city's quiet life.

Schalke 04 are only five points away from Bayer Leverkusen at the top of the league this season, and against arch-rivals Borussia Dortmund, three points are planned, so Schalke fans, who are supporters, will naturally have to give the visitors some disadvantage.

The media reporters who came to the scene were surprised that the game had not yet started, and it had only entered the warm-up stage.

Attentive media saw the unique sound testing equipment at Fairtings Arena, which displayed a shocking number: 108
