Chapter 131: Can Capital Crimes Be Avoided, but Living Crimes Are Inescapable?
(PS: I made a mistake in the last chapter, the Bundesliga halfway record is 44 points, not 43 points.) Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info)
With Dortmund setting a record of 40 points in 14 rounds, the German media and mainstream European media have reported Dortmund's achievements in a big way.
They may not be the first team to win the Bundesliga halfway three rounds ahead of schedule, but they are definitely the first team to come closest to the league halfway point record.
With three league games remaining, Dortmund is only behind Bayern Munich's half-point record of 44 points set in the 2005-2006 season.
The outside world continues to praise Dortmund, and young players will inevitably be influenced by media reporters, so manager Klopp often teaches lessons to his players, hoping that they will not lose themselves in the media's praise.
At the same time, Klopp is also instilling new ideas in the players.
The team is just four points shy of Bayern's record of 44 points set in 2005-2006 and now has three games to go before the start of the winter break, meaning that winning only two of those games will add their name to the Bundesliga halfway table record.
It's a huge temptation for any professional footballer.
What do professional players look for?
Nothing more than money and glory.
How do you get money and glory?
Isn't it on your own to show your ability on the premise of the team's overall performance?
So team glory and personal interests are tied together, no one will refuse glory, and no one will refuse money.
Besides, the agent behind the player is not a fool, and naturally knows what the premise of the salary increase and contract renewal is.
In this case, Borussia Dortmund host Capati in the fifth round of the 2010-2011 Europa League group stage.
In fact, with Capati already out of the tournament after the disastrous defeat to Sevilla in the fourth round of Group J, the remaining two rounds are meaningless.
At most, it is to give young players some opportunities to participate in European competitions and enjoy the atmosphere of European competitions in advance.
On a competitive level, there is no pressure on Borussia Dortmund's home game against Capati.
At the end of the 90 minutes, Borussia Dortmund, who sat at the Westphalia Stadium, beat Ukraine's Capati by three goals under the shouts of the home fans.
Tang Zheng, the core of the midfield, contributed a goal and an assist, and was the biggest contributor to Dortmund's home win.
Due to the other group stage of the same group at the same time, Paris Saint-Germain defeated Sevilla 4-2 at home, which also means that Dortmund and the winning Paris Saint-Germain will join hands in qualifying.
In the past five rounds of Group J of the 2010-2011 Europa League, Dortmund and Paris Saint-Germain have 11 points, but Dortmund has one more goal difference than Paris Saint-Germain, so they can finish first in the group.
※※※
With the Europa League group out of the group, Borussia Dortmund will be putting all their attention on the league and the third round of the German Cup.
According to Klopp's plan, the team will win all three games in the remaining rounds, so as to make the Bundesliga half-season record unbeatable!
If you want to do it, you can do it!
In the 15th round of the 2010-2011 Bundesliga, there were many key battles, among which Schalke 04 hosted Bayern Munich and attracted the most attention.
However, Nuremberg's home league game against Borussia Dortmund has also attracted a lot of attention, as the whole of Germany will be watching to see if Dortmund can set a record for the league halfway points while winning the Bundesliga half ahead of schedule.
At the same time, Nuremberg, who are playing at home, are also tasked with defending the club's glory.
Until then, though, the focus will be on the city of Gelsenkirchen in North Rhine-Westphalia.
Whether it is Schalke 04 at home or Bayern Munich away from home, there is no room for error in the next league game, and their results in the past 14 rounds of the league have not been very satisfactory, so a victory is urgently needed to boost morale.
Real Blue Schalke 04, in particular, have only picked up a measly thirteen points in the last fourteen rounds of the league.
The only thing that pleased the fans was Schalke 04's early group qualification for the Champions League.
However, if Schalke 04 can't get out of the relegation zone before the halfway point, it is very likely that the team will be relegated as the third-tier battle deepens in the second half of the season......
Under heavy pressure, Schalke 04, sitting at the Fairtings Athletic Stadium, defeated Bayern Munich by two goals and temporarily got out of the relegation zone.
Schalke 04 took three points at home, and Bayern Munich, who lost away, was collectively bombarded by the German media.
As the head coach, Van Gaal has become the target of both media and fans, knowing that Bayern last season was the league champion and the double runner-up of the Champions League and the German Cup.
Now that the league is close to more than halfway, it is difficult to be satisfied with anything other than the early qualification of the Champions League, especially in the league.
Because the Champions League is not the so-called defending champions who will participate directly in the Champions League next season.
There's only one way to qualify for next season's Champions League, and that's to finish in the top three this season!
But judging from the team's past 15 league games, there is little hope!
With the war in North Rhine-Westphalano over, the German media is focused on Nuremberg, the second largest city in Bavaria, Germany's largest state.
Nuremberg is the second largest city in Bavaria after Munich, but their teams have not been too satisfying.
Except for one championship in the Bundesliga, it was not won in the following 42 years.
The most recent title was the 2006-2007 season, when they beat then-league champions Stuttgart to win the German Cup after extra time.
In the past 14 rounds of this season, Nuremberg has won 5 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses, accumulating 18 points and ranking 10th in the league.
They may be a little better than the same period last season, but they are still far from Borussia Dortmund, who have won an astonishing 13 and drawn one this season.
Nuremberg, who sit at the Gend Stadium, were unable to shoulder the burden of defending their club's glory as they lost 2-0 at home to Borussia Dortmund.
Borussia Dortmund, who won away from home, continue to sit high at the top of the table with 43 points from 15 games, and their lead extends to a staggering 13 points thanks to Mainz's away defeat.
※※※
After the away league game, Borussia Dortmund will have another week of double fixtures after a week's rest.
This double-match week was Dortmund's last four games of 2010.
They are at home to Werder Bremen, away to Sevilla, the last opponent in the Europa League, the last league game before the winter break and the third round of the German Cup.
Dortmund, who have already scored 43 points, are favored by the media, as if they saw Dortmund beat Werder Bremen at home in the 16th round of the 2010-2011 Bundesliga season, thus setting a new Bundesliga half-time points record.
But there is a saying in world football.
The heat will die!
Borussia Dortmund, who sit at the Westphalic Stadium, were not beaten at home to 10th-placed Werder Bremen, but they were unable to win.
2:2
When the full-time whistle blew, visitors Werder Bremen drew with Borussia Dortmund.
If they hadn't seen the game live, many fans would have thought that Werder Bremen had held Dortmund to a draw.
But in reality?
Not really!
The Dortmund players who blew the storm of youth failed to control their emotions, and the consecutive victories and undefeated in the past made many players have a relaxed mentality, and even Tang Zheng could not avoid it.
Fortunately, Dortmund lost their way in the second half and scored two goals in a row to avoid a home defeat.
And Borussia Dortmund, who drew at home to Werder Bremen, also paid a heavy price, and the main striker Barrios injured his thigh and heel muscles, and it is conservatively estimated that he will be out for three weeks.
The most frustrating thing for Klopp was that Tang Zheng got a yellow card at the end of the second half, so Tang Zheng, who got this yellow card, has already received five yellow cards this season, and he will not be able to play in Dortmund to challenge Eintracht Frankfurt in the next round of the league.
In addition, with Borussia Dortmund picking up a point at home, they equalled Bayern Munich's record for half-time points in the Bundesliga set in 2005-2006.
Despite this, manager Jurgen Klopp did not feel any joy.
Jurgen Klopp would even like to trade three points if he had the choice.
The importance of Tang Zheng to the team does not need to be explained.
But as the saying goes, if you lose your horse, you won't know if you're blessed.
Although Tang Zheng will miss Borussia Dortmund's final league game of the half-time game against Eintracht Frankfurt due to yellow cards, he can focus all his attention on the final round of the Europa League and the third round of the German Cup.
Dortmund couldn't get three points at home, and many media outlets felt sorry.
A home win against Werder Bremen, who lost Mesut Ozil, would be a record-set, not an equal.
The next day, countless media outlets lamented that Dortmund had lost the opportunity to set the record ahead of schedule.
After all, Borussia Dortmund's two draws so far this season have come at home, and if they had won at home to Hoffenheim and Werder Bremen, the record would have been broken......
While many teams are home and away, Borussia Dortmund have won all of their away league games while their home results have lagged behind.
In addition, a number of media also talked about Tang Zheng's cumulative yellow card suspension.
Interestingly, Tang Zheng, who was supposed to go to Frankfurt, will not need to go to Frankfurt because of the accumulation of five yellow cards.
So that night, she received a call from Zhao Lina.
"Say, didn't you want to come to Frankfurt to see me so you deliberately got a yellow card?"
Tang Zheng hurriedly explained: "How is it possible? The game is so intense, and there is no way to control many things, especially the style of play like our team, once there is no way to cut off the ball at the first time, it is easy to cause the defense of the midfield and backfield to be empty. ”
"Well, actually, I'm kidding. Listening to Tang Zheng's explanation, Zhao Lina's voice suddenly changed.
"I knew that Nana was still the super good Nana in my impression. ”
"Hmph, it's good to know. ”
However, capital sins can be avoided, and living sins cannot be escaped.
