Chapter 256: 22 Assists in a Single Season (4/10, Ask for Subscription!)

It's not big news that Borussia Dortmund won the league title three rounds ahead of schedule, after all, they have already defended their title by beating Bayern Munich at home, but the Bundesliga is not based on the same points rules, but on goal difference. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Leaders Borussia Dortmund have a goal difference of just nine ahead of Bayern Munich, and with four league games remaining, there is still a chance that Dortmund will lose four in a row while Bayern Munich will win four in a row.

With one win and one loss, Bayern Munich's goal difference has the potential to surpass Dortmund and achieve a super reversal.

So a point from Borussia Dortmund's draw with Schalke 04 in the 31st round of the league puts them ten points ahead of Bayern Munich with three games left in the league to secure the 2011-2012 Bundesliga title.

For Borussia Dortmund fans, the reigning league title came as no surprise as they established an advantage in the middle of the league and did not drop the chain in the second half.

The Champions League has been eliminated and the only thing to pursue now is a new league points record and the German Cup.

With three rounds of the league remaining, seven points are needed to break last season's record of 82 points, or two wins and one draw.

Three games, two at home, so Dortmund fans are confident.

In midweek, the second leg of the 2011-2012 Champions League semi-finals came to an end.

Real Madrid and Bayern Munich were tied 2-1 at the Bernabeu Stadium with an aggregate score of 3-3 and the two sides went into extra time.

Neither side scored in extra-time and both sides had to go to a brutal penalty shoot-out.

When it comes to penalties, the Germans have always had an absolute psychological advantage.

4:3

Bayern Munich had the last laugh in the penalty shoot-out, and the Real Madrid players who missed the penalty were Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka, which made people cry without tears.

Bayern fans who were the first to reach the final were thrilled because this season's Champions League final was their home stadium – the Allianz Arena.

In the second leg of the other Champions League semi-final, Barcelona led 2-0 at the Camp Nou, and even Chelsea captain John Terry was sent off in the first half for infringing on Alexis Sanchez.

However, Ramires scored in first-half stoppage time from Frank Lampard's through ball as Chelsea equalised on aggregate and boasted an away goal.

Immediately, Barcelona, who played with one more man, had a chance to kill the game, and Drogba tackled Cesc Fabregas in the box.

As a result, Messi's penalty hit the crossbar and missed a great chance.

As the saying goes, if you don't die in a great disaster, you will have a blessing.

Chelsea had a good chance to counter-attack after a long period of passive defending, with substitute Fernando Torres slapping Barcelona off a cliff when he got past Valdés in injury time.

Barcelona's exit is also a testament to the curse that has been around since the Champions League was restructured – no team can defend the title.

Eventually, Chelsea and Bayern Munich met in the 2011-2012 Champions League.

This season's Champions League final will be held at the Allianz Arena, so many German media can't wait for the final to begin.

Or rather, expect Bayern Munich to win the title on their home turf.

The "Munich Evening News" blew the sky, and almost directly announced that Bayern Munich was the champion.

The final was played at the Allianz Arena, and the damage to Chelsea's squad was so bad, that their soul captain John Terry was suspended for a red card, which was definitely good news for Bayern Munich.

The Chinese media are less enthusiastic about the Champions League final than they used to be, and they are now looking forward to whether Borussia Dortmund can set a new league points record in the upcoming Bundesliga campaign.

In addition, whether Tang Zheng can refresh the double-double data obtained last season.

In the past 31 rounds of the league, Tang Zheng has scored 15 goals and 20 assists.

With three rounds of the league remaining, the Chinese media and fans are hoping that Tang Zheng can surpass last season's record of 21 assists in a single season in the Bundesliga.

The 32nd round of the 2011-2012 Bundesliga season was played at the Lun Stadium in Westfa, and Dortmund, who had already won the league title in advance, faced the challenge of Borussia Mönchengladbach, who finished fourth in the league, at home.

Borussia Mönchengladbach is arguably the biggest dark horse of the season, having only stayed in the Bundesliga through the play-offs last season.

However, they are fourth in the league this season, only three points less than Schalke 04, who are third in the league, and are likely to compete for a place in the Champions League next season.

It's just that they are away to challenge the league champions, Dortmund, which is somewhat difficult.

Even if Borussia Mönchengladbach beat the face of champions Borussia Dortmund away from home, it will be difficult for them to reverse Schalke 04 to finish third in the league.

First of all, Schalke 04's remaining three opponents are Augsburg, Hertha Berlin and Werder Bremen, the Bundesliga is not the Premier League, and there are not so many relegation teams to beat the upstream teams.

This is followed by Borussia Mönchengladbach's remaining three opponents, in addition to Borussia Dortmund, Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich.

Coupled with the fact that Borussia Mönchengladbach lost Reuss, who was destined for the big scene in the second half of the season, the odds of winning are somewhat insufficient.

Moreover, Dortmund, who is playing at home, has been unbeaten at home in the past three seasons, except for losing to Barcelona in the first leg of the Champions League quarterfinals, and the league is still unbeaten at home, and it is very difficult for Borussia Mönchengladbach to beat Dortmund!

It has also proved that the Westphalia Lun Stadium, the home of Europe's No. 1 Devils, is not so easy to conquer.

Tang Zheng set up Robert Lewandowski's goal less than 10 minutes into the game, and defender Piszczek sealed the win on the end of Andrea Pirlo's corner.

With the assist in this game, Tang Zheng successfully tied the Bundesliga single-season assist record set by him last season.

With the last two rounds of the league remaining, the German and Chinese media are looking forward to Tang Zheng setting a new Bundesliga single-season assist record.

With Borussia Dortmund's home win, the league points have also reached 79 points, three points short of the 82 points set last season.

Borussia Dortmund have played a home league game against Borussia Mönchengladbach with three games remaining in the 2011-2012 season.

Two league games and the German Cup final.

But the remaining two league games don't mean much to Dortmund, who are now more focused on training newcomers.

Of course, it's certainly okay to be able to set a record.

However, the Chinese media were somewhat disappointed that the 17-year-old Chinese teenager Lu Liang sat on the bench for two consecutive games without getting a chance to come off the bench for even a minute.

However, the regret of the Chinese media was made up for in the 33rd round of the 2011-2012 Bundesliga season.

Borussia Dortmund challenged Kaiserslautern, who had already been relegated early, and Dortmund, who played with a semi-main lineup, took a 3-0 lead in the first half.

Borussia Dortmund made two substitutions at the start of the second half, with Sven Bender and Kincek coming on in place of Andrea Pirlo and Robert Lewandowski respectively.

Next, both sides scored one goal each, and the score became 1:4

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

The moment that thrilled the Chinese media and fans came in the 78th minute of the game, when Lu Liang, wearing No. 39, stood on the sidelines and was about to replace No. 11 Royce.

Duan Huo, the commentator of the Central 5, was very excited, and he introduced it emphatically: "The player who appears in the broadcast camera now is Lu Liang, who is only 17 years and 73 years old from Shanghai, remember this name, maybe in many years, he will become the core player in the Chinese Overseas Army! Unfortunately, he failed to break the record of 16 years and 335 days of the youngest appearance in the Bundesliga set by former Dortmund player Shahin......

Speaking of this, he suddenly raised his voice and said passionately: "If Lu Liang can score with the assistance of his big brother, he will surpass former Dortmund player Shaheen to become the youngest scorer in the Bundesliga at the age of seventeen years and seventy-three......

Although Lu Liang is not the youngest player to appear in the history of the Bundesliga, he has surpassed Ruhr derby rivals Schalke 04 Draxler to become the second youngest player in the history of the Bundesliga.

This record is enough to make the Chinese media and fans excited.

As the saying goes, good things come in pairs, and maybe this is the game at Fiswoda Stadium.

Before the end of the game, Tang Zheng assisted Kincek to score a goal, and he also set a new record for assists in a single season in the Bundesliga set last season.

In the end, the score was also fixed at 1:5, and Dortmund defeated Kaiserslautern who were relegated in advance 5:1 away.

After 33 rounds of the 2011-2012 Bundesliga, the Champions League places, Europa League places and relegated teams have basically settled.

Borussia Dortmund is first in the league with 82 points, followed by Bayern Munich with 70 points, Schalke 04 is third with 61 points, and with Borussia Mönchengladbach with 57 points, the three places to qualify for next season's Champions League have been decided.

In fifth place in the league is Bayer Leverkusen, who have 51 points, six points from Borussia Mönchengladbach, which means that Borussia Mönchengladbach has directly qualified for the fourth qualifying round of next season's Champions League.

As for the Europa League places, because Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich meet in the final, the seventh in the league can participate in the Europa League qualification.

Stuttgart are sixth with 50 points, five points ahead of seventh-placed Hannover (96) and will qualify for next season's Europa League group stage.

The only suspense is the battle for seventh place in the league, whether it is Hannover 96, which currently has 45 points, or Wolfsburg, which has 44 points.

There will be no change for the relegated teams, the only thing that is uncertain is which team is second from bottom and which team is third from bottom.

After 33 rounds of the league, Cologne has 30 points and Hertha Berlin has 28 points.

To sum up, there are only two suspense in the final round of the 2011-2012 Bundesliga season.

Europa League qualified teams and outright relegated teams.

However, the Chinese media is only focusing on two areas: whether Tang Zheng can continue his single-season assist record and whether Lu Liang can break Shaheen's record as the youngest player to score in the Bundesliga.

The final round kicks off at the same time, and the central 5 priority is to broadcast Dortmund's league live.
