Chapter 154: Four consecutive league wins
When Barrios sent the ball into Kraft's goal, the Bayern fans at the Allianz Arena were worried if Dortmund would score another goal.
You must know that Bayern Munich entered the millennium, and they have not lost three goals at home. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
If one more goal is conceded, it will be the biggest home defeat of the new century.
Therefore, many Bayern fans are praying that the Dortmund players on the pitch will show mercy......
But a lot was coming, and Grosskreutz, who had been trained in the Borussia Dortmund Academy, smashed a header into Kraft's goal.
And this goal was also the last goal of the final semi-final of the 2010-2011 German Cup.
0:4
Bloody big score.
It made the faces of countless Bayern celebrities, officials, and fans feel a hot pain.
Because of their well being brought back to the last century......
Bayern Munich lost 0:4 at home to Dortmund, creating the team's biggest defeat in nearly 31 years.
The last time they conceded by four goals at home was back in the '60s and '70s, with a 4-0 defeat at home to Duisburg in 1967-1968 and a 4-0 defeat at home to Bielefeld in 1978-1979.
However, this score was not the biggest defeat at home, the biggest defeat at home was in the ninth round of the 1976-1977 season, when they lost 7-0 at home to Schalke 04 in North Rhine-Westphalia.
The Dortmund fans at the Allianz Arena are happy, while the Bayern fans are miserable.
They have always been German hegemons, and they did not expect feng shui to take turns, and today ...... They suffered their biggest defeat of the new century at home.
Moreover, it is still a loss and a loss.
In the closing stages of the game, Gomez was sent off after an altercation with goalscorer Grosskreutz.
"Whew-"
The Dortmund fans who came to the Allianz Arena with the team roared hysterically and celebrated the team's big victory away from home!
There are also some fans who are die-hard fans of the older generation, and they have mixed feelings.
In my vague memory, Dortmund once lost to Bayern Munich with a score of 1:11 in 1971.
There are still many fans of this generation who have not been born, so they don't know how it was like at that time, and now there are almost zero disparities in the top league, so it is not realistic to take revenge on the early 70s of the last century.
Therefore, the 4-0 victory over Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena and the promotion to this season's German Cup final are a happy result.
There's nothing more exciting than this for the older generation of fans!
The live broadcast switched to a Dortmund fan crying with joy, and German Sky commentator Marcel Leif said sensationally: "Dortmund once lost to Dortmund away by a big score, and 40 years later, Dortmund beat the in-form Bayern Munich by four goals at the Allianz Arena, which is ...... for them." It's revenge, it's also to prove yourself! Dortmund is also the top European club in Germany! Because they have the most fanatical football atmosphere in the whole of Europe......"
Feeling the huge cheers brought by the Allianz Arena, Marcel Leif naturally said: "I want to ...... The dynasty belonging to Dortmund has come, it's just ...... How long will this dynasty last?"
At this time, the live broadcast camera was given to Tang Zheng, one of the biggest heroes of the game, and his voice changed and said: "The rise of Dortmund comes from Tang's strong joining......! As long as he stays in Westphara, the Dortmund dynasty can last......"
Dortmund fans are comfortable to listen to, but non-Dortmund fans are uncomfortable.
Dynasty?
It's a joke!
Is it really a joke?
No...... Because the results of Dortmund this season prove that they have the strength to dominate!
――――――――――
The next day, the main German and European media were dominated by two pieces of news that dominated the headlines.
Borussia Dortmund's four-goal away win over Bayern, Bayern's biggest home defeat in nearly 32 years, is full of commemorative value in terms of historical significance, so it does not create much newsworthiness.
However, various media reprinted an official website message released at half past one o'clock this morning European time, which attracted some attention: "After joint discussions between the board of directors, the club president and the sporting director, the club decided to let Van Gaal leave class early. ”
Of course, this news can only be said to be valuable, not full of surprises.
Louis van Gaal, who took over Bayern Munich last season, led the team to a stellar performance, coming back from behind top-of-the-table team Bayer Leverkusen for most of the season to win the 2009-2010 Bundesliga title.
If it weren't for the German Cup final and Champions League final defeats to Borussia Dortmund and Inter Milan respectively, Van Gaal would have had a good chance of leading Bayern to the first treble in German football history.
The results are quite impressive.
But there are many rights and wrongs in the wealthy family, and no one can sit in the wealthy family.
Van Gaal, who coached Bayern this season, seems to have suddenly lost control of the team, not only withdrawing from the championship competition early in the league, but also stumbling through to the Champions League, so the 1/8 final was drawn to Inter Milan, the opponent of last season's Champions League final.
The first leg was okay, with a narrow one-goal win.
The Champions League performances are not a plus for Louis van Gaal, who has not won against Borussia Dortmund since the start of the 2009-2010 season.
The last five games have been lost five in a row, not to mention 18 points behind the league leader Borussia Dortmund, and the German Cup has also been eliminated from the final.
Especially the semi-finals of the German Cup, which ended last night.
0:4
There is no way to fight back!
But...... These are not enough to be the real reason for Van Gaal's resignation, after all, he led the team to play in the Champions League still has a good record.
Therefore, some media speculated that Bayern's early dismissal of Van Gaal was likely to be due to a conflict with Bayern's stars.
It's understandable why Franck Ribery and Kroos weren't on the bench in the second half......
Tang Zheng also paid attention to Van Gaal's dismissal, but he only paid attention, because Dortmund still has a week of double matches in a row.
Back at the Stobelari training centre, they will be able to put all their focus back on the upcoming league and Europa League quarter-finals.
Cologne have 29 points from the last 24 league games and are 11th in the league, a world away from Borussia Dortmund's, but Dortmund will fly to Moscow, where it is still cold, to start the knockout rounds of the Europa League.
Therefore, the league against Cologne at home has hidden a lot of main players to prepare for the next Europa League 1/8 finals.
Due to the absence of a large number of main players, the tacit understanding of the players in the game was insufficient, and it was not until the main players in the second half that they won 1:0 at home against Cologne with Tang Zheng's header in the penalty area, and continued to lead the standings.
――――――――――
After playing Cologne at home, the whole Dortmund team prepared for CSKA Moscow in a tense atmosphere deliberately created by Klopp.
Although it is already March, the temperature in Moscow is not very high, the temperature difference between day and night is large, and the average temperature is below freezing.
This kind of weather, let alone playing football, will feel extremely cold if you don't have a fire.
In addition, the distance is long and the flight distance is too large, which causes physical fatigue is very large, which can easily lead to the player's lack of active running or out of shape in the game.
In fact?
Both sides are not in good shape.
Borussia Dortmund travelled long distances to Moscow for a match in the snow, and Sven Bender and Gotze were hit by flu on the ground, and Barrios had to be replaced by Robert Lewandowski after straining his thigh muscles less than ten minutes into the game.
It didn't take long for the captain Kyle, who had returned from injury, to be replaced due to physical discomfort.
The Russian Premier League has not yet started, and although CSKA Moscow uses warm-up matches to maintain the condition of the players, friendly matches can only be friendly matches forever, and there is no way to compare with the real game.
They were uncomfortable with Dortmund's high pressing, and the Russian players were not known for their delicate footwork, so it was difficult to control the ball in the face of Dortmund's high press.
Fortunately, the Russian players are tall and very strong, and they are able to use their physical advantages to make up for their lack of technique.
It's just that this advantage is not very sustainable, so even if CSKA Moscow is not at home, it does not create a real threat.
The visiting Dortmund was difficult to form due to the flu and injuries of many main players, and the final kick was not fine enough.
With Tang Zheng caught in the muscles of CSKA Moscow's midfield, it was difficult for the visiting Dortmund to play a delicate combination.
In addition, the goalkeeper of CSKA Moscow is the Russian national Akinfeev, his strength is very strong, and he blocked Tang Zheng's sudden cold arrow outside the penalty area from the bottom line.
Tang Zheng, who missed the goal, held his head with both hands, looking quite regretful.
Because he had a tough time away from Moscow, the chances were the equivalent of missing a game.
In the end, the two sides exchanged a goalless draw at the Luzhniki Stadium.
The score may have been a good result for CSKA Moscow, but it was difficult for Dortmund to accept.
In this game, Dortmund not only lost striker Barrios, who has been in excellent form this season, but also the captain Kehl, who has just returned from injury, has been diagnosed with an adductor strain again, and will be exempted from the game for a month.
Barrios is slightly better, he just needs to rest for two weeks.
In this context, Klopp was somewhat unwilling to draw away from home.
Therefore, in the regular press conference after the game, Klopp complained that UEFA should set the playing field at a neutral venue during the cold period in Moscow, so as to promote the fairness of the game.
Of course, he just complained and didn't say much.
In fact, deep down in his heart, the away draw against CSKA Moscow was also a good result.
After all, in this cold weather, CSKA Moscow players are more adapted.
It's just that this result is somewhat dissatisfied with the situation of injuring two generals in a row.
It's human nature!
――――――――
Borussia Dortmund played CSKA Moscow away and they quickly got back into the league as they face Hoffenheim next.
Hoffenheim's performance at the beginning of the season was okay, but as the league deepened, their performance in the league was not as dazzling as it was at the beginning of the season.
In the past 25 rounds of the league, they have only eight wins, nine draws and eight losses, ranking ninth in the league with 33 points, a full 30 points less than Borussia Dortmund's 19 wins, 6 draws and 63 points.
Although Dortmund are the undisputed winners in terms of points, the game cannot be measured by these simple statistics.
The result is determined only by the competition.
And Dortmund is a double game a week, and it is a long journey, which requires a lot of physical fitness, Hoffenheim is at ease, and has a certain advantage in physical fitness.
Coupled with the fact that Dortmund injured striker Barrios and captain Kyle in the away game against CSKA Moscow, this had a great impact on their skills and tactics.
In particular, striker Barrios was injured, which had a huge impact on Dortmund's attack.
Judging by the course of the game, it is.
Borussia Dortmund have struggled a bit away from home, with Hoffenheim having the advantage of being at home.
Therefore, Dortmund fans sitting in front of the TV are a little puzzled why Dortmund, who have been doing quite well recently, should be pressed into their own half by Hoffenheim, who are ranked ninth in the league.
Marcel Leif shook his head and said: "The long journey has indeed had a huge impact on the two matches in a week, and I have just flown back from Moscow to prepare for the league, and my body is really unbearable, and even Don does not have the kind of running that he used to ...... at all costs."
In fact?
In fact, Tang Zheng reduced his running because his teammates couldn't keep up with the rhythm, and he, as the core of the team, must take care of the whole team and serve the whole team, otherwise the team will lose its rhythm.
Hoffenheim, who moved into the Rhein-Neckar Arena, performed well, and the fans in the stands also performed quite well, and the tsunami-like shouts swept through the stadium.
The atmosphere was extremely frenetic and the home team was playing more and more aggressively.
Dortmund is also in front of the door because of this, and there is a lot of danger.
Just when all Hoffenheim fans were about to think the team was going to break the deadlock, they were hit in the head.
Tang Zheng left the ball at the feet of Salihovic with a beautiful tackle at the front of the penalty area, and after getting up, he made a long pass to the right without adjustment, and Kuba inserted it at high speed.
Suddenly, the Hoffenheim fans at the Rhein-Neckar Arena reacted, and they were beaten back!
"Woo-woo-"
The Hoffenheim fans, who reacted, erupted in loud boos and tried to distract Kuba.
But to no avail, Kuba drove all the way in, then crossed straight into the middle from the right side of the penalty area, and the following Lewandowski kicked the ball into the goal.
"At a critical time, we still have to rely on Tang Zheng!" said Duan Huo, the central 5 commentator, excitedly.
Manager Jurgen Klopp breathed a sigh of relief that if he conceded first away from home, it would be a difficult game.
With Robert Lewandowski scoring the ball away from home, the game went in a completely different direction.
Dortmund, who were not in too good form, gradually gained the upper hand and they began to control the tempo of the game.
This continued until the end of the game.
In the end, Dortmund defeated Hoffenheim by one goal away from home, winning four consecutive victories and continuing to top the league table!
