Chapter 116: Four Wins in a Row and Four Consecutive Defeats

Tang Zheng, who scored the goal, was very excited, as were his teammates, and the Dortmund fans in the stands roared hysterically, venting their excitement about the two-goal lead. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Suddenly, the blast police at Battlens Arena became extremely nervous, and they clenched the equipment in their hands as if they were walking on thin ice, for fear that the fans of both sides would clash at this time.

However, the Schalke fans did not seem to be in a very good mood, and they all fell into their own depression.

Looking at the Dortmund players celebrating their goal, they didn't know what they were thinking.

Borussia Dortmund manager Jurgen Klopp raised his fist for the second goal, and he made his trademark celebration on the sidelines – raising his arms and shouting.

"Dortmund scored another goal in the 59th minute of full-time through Don, and they led the home team Schalke 04...... 2-0"

German Sky commentator Marcel Leif said.

"Kuba dangled a shot when he was preparing, it looked like he was going to dunk the ball back, but it was actually to pave the way for the next cross, so the ball was passed with a certain directionality, hoping that someone would be able to respond at the far end, whether it was a header or a cushion shot, and it happened that Don came to the most dangerous place when he was unmarked......"

German TV 2 commentator Michael Reti said.

"Dortmund's attack was very targeted, using dense personnel on the left side of the attack, covering Kuba on the right, in order to make up for the gap on the left side of the defense, the Schalke players had to lean sharply to the left, but it was such a tilt that they ignored Dortmund's most threatening Tang ......"

"We imagined the game before the game, but we didn't expect Dortmund to score one goal in each half and lead by two goals away from home......

Prestan and Hevedes both made the same mistake by watching the ball and not looking at people, while Moritz at the far end of the pitch didn't realise the danger of the defence, and the adduction wasn't deep enough to watch Don finish with a high-quality cushion. ”

The commentators watched the panoramic replay of the goal given by the live broadcaster and talked about it.

By the time the on-site director switched the camera back to the scene, the Dortmund players were slowly walking towards their own half.

Tang Zheng walked towards Hummels, he patted the other party's shoulder and said, "The long pass transfer is very good, worthy of being my apprentice." ”

Hummels gave Tang Zheng a roll of his eyes speechlessly, but did not refute.

His long-pass footwork was indeed taught by Tang Zheng, and according to the Chinese parlance, he was an apprentice.

At the same time, Klopp's eyes suddenly lit up as he looked at Tang Zheng and Hummels.

Hummels' precise movement is at the heart of the whole goal, and if he has this kind of consistent long-form play in the future, it can give him more control of the ball and enrich the team's attack.

At that time, Dortmund's attack will be more diverse, making the opponent unguardable!

The game restarted, Magath didn't make any adjustments to the situation his team was behind, he was watching an inconsequential training match, with his chin in his right hand.

The team is two goals behind at home, the manager has not yet given the latest instructions, and the mentality of the players on the pitch is very polarized.

The front wants to score, the back wants to defend.

That's where Raul's extensive game experience comes into play.

He took advantage of Barrios' cushion shot in front of goal that went over the crossbar and loudly reminded his teammates, asking everyone to concentrate and patiently organize the attack, there will always be a chance to close the score.

As long as the score is narrowed, it is not a problem to equalize or even overtake.

However, many times the ideals are abundant, but the reality is cruel.

Borussia Dortmund took a two-goal lead in the fourth minute when Schalke 04 suffered a fatal blow.

Edu struggled to play at left wing-back and opted to play the ball back to full-back Salpe in the face of Owomoyela's defence.

Kuba was very fast and pressed Sarpe for the first time near the halfway line, who did not dare to slack off and kicked the ball straight forward.

Sarpe's aimless pass to Raul didn't stop and Subotic fired the ball straight into the pitch.

Barrios used his strong body to carry Hevedez, but neither of them could reach the football, and the football continued to bounce forward and came to Tang Zheng's running route.

Suddenly, there was a huge boo in the sky above the Battlens Arena.

The central defender Prestan and the right-back Moritz who were dragging behind both subconsciously moved closer to Tang Zheng, but Tang Zheng stopped the ball and knocked it back with his heel, and the football came to Barrios, who had completed the turn and stuck the position.

Prestan quickly turned a small corner and nervously rushed towards Barrios.

Barrios made an illusion of passing the ball to Tang Zheng sideways during the run, which tricked Prestein's body into a pause.

He seized the rare opportunity to slam the ball between Prestein's legs with the arch of his left foot, and then started to accelerate from the rib space between Prestein and left-back Salpe.

If you can rush through, it's an absolute one-shot ball.

Prestein, who has a good sense of position, knew this, so he stretched out his foot and tripped Barrios when he couldn't finish defending.

Immediately, the referee on duty walked to the place of foul with an unkind face.

※※※

"Whew~ Lucas Barrios' breakthrough was tripped by Nicolas Prastan and fell to the ground. German Sky commentator Marcel Leif heard the referee's whistle and shouted: "Nicolas Platan looks like he has a yellow card!"

The scene director's footage also showed the location of the foul, and from the broadcast screen, you can see that the referee took out a yellow card from his chest pocket, and then took out a red card from his trouser pocket and showed it.

On the field, the captain Tang Zheng was ready to put pressure on the referee, but when he saw the referee decisively take out the yellow card, he turned around and pulled up Barrios, who was sitting on the grass to sort out his socks.

Loud boos erupted again over Battlens Arena, quickly sweeping from one of the stands to the entire stadium.

Schalke fans vent their frustration with the referee in this way.

It's okay to be two goals behind, and now it's one less!

In the next game, they can guess the ending even if they think about it with their toes.

Prastan's red card is the second game in a row for Schalke 04 to see a player sent off, having been shown by Hevedes in their midweek trip to Lyon. German TV 2 commentator Michael Retti said: "Does this mean that Schalke 04 will suffer five consecutive defeats in the new season?"

Actually, the question ...... There is already an answer.

Shahin's set-piece was headed over by Subotic but did not pose a threat and Schalke 04 headed in goal.

As the centre-back was sent off, in order to keep the defence intact and maintain the attacking intensity, Magath chose to replace full-back Salpe with 20-year-old central defender Matip, and the formation changed to three-four-two.

Magath made the second change of the game with the young Joel Matip coming on, but it was a change that was difficult to please the home supporters as they were two goals down and needed to attack rather than defend. Yang 5 commentator Duan Huo said: "But there is no way to do it, Dortmund have scored a staggering eleven goals in the last four games, and the Schalke backline must keep the defenders adequate......

Duan Huo also has a certain basis for such a comment, and Dortmund's attacking power this season is very amazing.

You must know that Schalke 04 is not conceding any more goals on the premise of maintaining the hope of winning points, otherwise everything will be in vain.

It didn't take long for Borussia Dortmund to make their second change of the game, with Poland's Robert Lewandowski replacing Grosskreutz to maintain the attacking threat to Schalke 04.

※※※

Huntelaar, Raul, Edu and others, who joined Schalke 04 in the new season, worked hard, but they always felt that they lacked a tacit understanding with each other, and they played very hard and could not form a cooperation.

Raul and Huntelaar had a training co-operation during their time at Real Madrid, and they had a better understanding than the stable Schalke 04 attacking system, so they simply formed a small group of two against Dortmund.

However, they still did nothing in the face of the tacit Dortmund defensive system, but Dortmund, who switched from defense to attack, played a lot of offensive routines in attack.

To the disappointment of the Dortmund fans at the scene, Barrios's crosshairs were still not adjusted and missed the goal.

The game entered 80 minutes, and the score was still 0:2

The home team is in the front, the away team is in the back.

Visitors Borussia Dortmund made the final change of the game at this point, with Piszczek coming on for striker Barrios.

This substitution adjustment is purely to bring the previous awkward formation back to normal, Lewandowski is at the front, Owomoyela is in the left midfield, Kuba is playing right midfield, and Tang Zheng is still in the center to play the front midfield.

Schalke fans in the stands began to slowly withdraw from the pitch, knowing that the chances of an equaliser were infinitely close to zero.

Watching sworn rivals celebrate their victory at the Schalke Stadium is even worse than killing them.

The formation gradually returned to normal, and Dortmund's offensive slowly picked up again, after all, Schalke 04 is still playing one less player and there is not enough space to defend.

Sure enough!

In the 85th minute of the game, Shaheen pulled to the right side of the attack and sent a cross, Tang Zheng pressed Hevedes at the far point of the penalty area to rub the ball back, and Lewandowski, who ran deeply, completed the top from back to front, and the German international Manuel Neuer couldn't reach the whip, and the football hung straight to the net.

0:3

But it wasn't the last goal of the game.

In the 89th minute, Rakitic struck a cold arrow from outside the box, and Huntelaar, who was running forward, couldn't dodge, and the ball hit his back and refracted it.

As Weidenfeller had already made a save, there was nothing he could do in the face of the refracted football.

In the end, Dortmund defeated their sworn rival Schalke 04 with a score of 3:1, giving their rivals four consecutive league defeats while giving them four consecutive league defeats!
