Chapter 653: Ordinary Competition
'The back line changed a lot today because Hovides and Metzelder couldn't play, so Magath sent a whole new combination today. Pen %Fun %Cabinet www.biquge.info," Uncle Dipper continued.
"Today's center-back combination is Matip and Persa, the two wing-backs are Högel and Krishitto, midfielders Gundogan, Fuchs, Mata and Holtby who just completed a hat-trick in the last game, Ai Huan is still injured so he can't play, he didn't appear on the bench in this game, which may be the reason why Magath sees that the opponent he faces today is weaker. The forward line is made up of Demba Ba and Farfan, and these two men are more than enough to challenge any opponent. ”
Although Uncle Deep's name would set off a burst of cheers every time he said his name, the problem was that the chairman sitting in the VIP room had turned blue, and he also noticed that several West Asian bigwigs sitting next to him were also gloomy, what they wanted to see was Ai Huan's performance on the field, and now that they didn't see what they wanted to see, they naturally wouldn't be happy.
"What's the matter with the bastard? You go and ask what's going on?" the chairman found a reason to come out and say to the general manager.
After a while, the general manager rushed back," Magath said, this is because Ai Huan's injury has recurred, and he will not be able to play for the time being. ”
The chairman's eyes narrowed involuntarily, and then a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he snorted coldly for a while and turned back, no one knows what he is thinking in his heart at this time, but even a fool knows that this time Mr. Chairman is very angry, but who knows what the consequences will be?
But Magath didn't take this matter to heart at all, he was already thinking about this game at this time, and he had already prepared for the future, it was useless to say anything at this time, now that you have already made a decision, I should also think about it for myself.
Schalke looked a little absent-minded after the start of the game, and it was clear that these players didn't care much about the opponent, so they still gave a lot of space, which also allowed Aufsburg's attack to play well. They were awarded a corner in the fifth minute, but Carlson Braque headed narrowly wide after receiving a corner from Beyer on the right.
Schalke also immediately returned to the color in the eighth minute, Holterby sent a through ball, Demba Ba tried to shoot after getting the ball at high speed, but was blocked by Amsif's quick attack. Four minutes later, Demba Ba headed back from Juan Mata's cross and Holtby picked up the ball from outside the box and adjusted slightly to shoot a long-range shot just over the back of the net.
In the sixteenth minute, Farfan retreated to get the ball, and the midfielder gave the ball to Fuchs on the left, who broke through the bottom cross on the left, and quickly followed Holterby after receiving the ball and slanted in front of the goal, Demba Ba arrived in time to get the ball into the goal with his right foot, making the score 1-0, and this is also Demba Ba's tenth goal this season, he is not a main player in Schalke, but the goal is enough to scare everyone.
After Schalke's goal, Aufsburg's breath was suddenly relaxed, and their players' ability was really not enough to compete with Schalke's players, so it was not a strange thing to relax.
In the 26th minute, Fuchs crossed from the left, and Demba Ba's right-footed shot grazed the left post and flew out of the bottom line. In the 34th minute, Schalke successfully launched a counterattack with a midfield break, Demba Ba went straight to Holterby in a fast movement, Holt scored on the side, and Fuchs's cross from the left was cleared by Augsburg defender Reinhardt.
In the 42nd minute, Demba Ba, who was very active in the game, was pushed down by Sanko in front of the penalty area, and because Ai Huan was not on the field, Fuchs took a free kick. After the free-kick was taken, the football was hoisted into the penalty area, and Demba Ba caught up with the following header to hit the goal, but this time the goal was too straight and was directly confiscated by Amsif. Just a minute later, Farfan broke down the right to the edge of the box and moved the ball to the left, where Juan Mata won the ball and pushed it down the middle, where Holtby followed up with a shot that went wide.
That was the end of the first half, with Schalke leading 1-0 at home.
After the break, Auvsburg replaced striker Earl and was ready to give it a go, after all, losing one goal is also a loss, and losing a few goals is also a loss, so it is better to fight to the death.
In the 48th minute, Reinhardt broke through the front on the right and crossed to Werner, who returned to Brinkmann outside the box, Brinkmann went straight to the middle, and Molders stopped the ball in the middle under the cover of Earl and fired a low right-footed shot into the goal, making it 1-1.
The ball passed five feet at the front of the Schalke penalty area, and Schalke did not come up at all, and the players still looked very idle, which caused the two central defenders to interfere at the last moment, and even became an obstacle to block Zhang Chong's vision, which also made Magath very angry, he immediately made substitution adjustments, replacing the very poor performance of Sarpe, but what was surprising was that the person he replaced was Joaquin, that is to say, he gave Schalke the order to attack all lines, and then Schalke really occupied a comprehensive advantage。
In the 53rd minute, Juan Mata drove the ball into the box on the left and pushed it across the middle, Holtby followed up with a powerful shot from the middle that was saved by Amsif, and Joaquin's follow-up shot from the right was blocked by Amsief again. In the 58th minute, Gundogan stole the ball at the feet of Xibei Meng in the middle and passed diagonally to Farfan, whose shot from the penalty area was collected by Amsif.
In the 66th minute, Demba Ba distributed the ball to the left side in the middle, and Fuchs burst into the corner of the penalty area with the ball and suddenly hit the goal with a beautiful heavy shot, directly sending the ball to the Augsburg goal, turning the score into 2-1, Schalke 04 exceeded the score again.
In the 77th minute, Draxler made a tackle, and the ball bounced off Fuchs and deflected to the feet of Molders in the box, who kicked high in the face of Zhang Chong's powerful shot.
In the 81st minute, Fuchs crossed low, and Draxler's shot was saved by Amsiff.
In the 84th minute, Fuchs took a free-kick and Joaquin's header was denied by Sinkara. After Schalke took a corner from the left, neither player in the middle could grab the point, and Farfan's nod was blocked by Ferhag's outstretched foot in the goal, but the referee Dietz blew the goal to make it 3-1. Slow motion shows that the ball has indeed crossed the goal line.
In the end, Schalke 04 defeated Augsburg 3-1 at home, and Augsburg directly came to the bottom and became the deputy squad leader.
