After scoring this goal, Magath still commanded the whole team to continue to strengthen the attack, and in the face of the weak team Nuremberg, he was not polite at all, just planning to find a new formation feeling in them, because Nuremberg's defense has always been good. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Aonin's side firmly played a defensive counterattack tactic, and the two fullbacks of Schalke 04 inserted particularly strongly, leaving a relatively large gap on the wings.

Nuremberg had a couple of counter-attacking opportunities, but their forward pace was a bit slow, and Charlessteas, who was at the front, was not known for his speed, he was a post-oriented centre-forward.

So these few opportunities were wasted by themselves, and Ao Ning could only stand on the sidelines and stare dryly.

At the end of the first half, the score was still 1:0, Schalke 04 was ahead, Magath had already seen the problem in the first half, and Schalke 04's defensive position still needed to be carefully considered.

After the start of the second half of the game, the two sides continued the tactics of the first half, and Schalke 04 still took the initiative.

In the 54th minute, Magath made a substitution, allowing Levan Knya to replace Mineiro.

Knya is a young player promoted from the second team, he is the same age as Zhang Yuan, from Georgia, he is relatively thin and weak, and he is known for his breakthroughs.

He showed good form with a goal in the first round of the German Cup, and he was managed to keep Magath in the first team.

Just a minute on the field, Knya and Raphinha made a wonderful cooperation, Knya received Farfan's pass to the side, back to the plugged Raphinha, Raphinha did not stop the ball to pick up the pass to continue to insert Knia, Knya crossed the middle near the bottom line, Kuranyi missed the situation, deceived Wolf, Zhang Yuan got rid of Maro, pushed in front, and once again broke through the door guarded by Schaefer.

This attack was simple and beautiful, which was exactly what Magath was expecting, and Knya also surprised him, Zhang Yuan's goal was too normal.

Magath also saw that with one more Kuranyi, Zhang Yuan's running in the front court was much less resistant, and both times were sports goals, Zhang Yuan showed excellent running ability, which is very good, and lived up to his purpose of changing the formation of two forwards.

As soon as the goal was scored, Magath began to adjust his tactics, adjusting the diamond-shaped midfield position to a parallel position, and let Zhang Yuan take on the task of tandem midfield, and the two sides of the midfield were called to Farfan and Knea. In the middle of the route, Westman and Kobiashvili are in charge.

The parallel position is more inclined to the balance of attack and defense, and with the advantage of two goals, Magath does not want to slip away from the victory.

His worries are unnecessary, Ao Ning is not letting his team press the attack without limits, playing against such a strong team as Schalke 04, it is not unacceptable to lose, but it is best not to lose too badly in front of the home hometown fathers, because this is the first game of the new season, and the loss is too bad, and the blow to the team's morale is quite large.

After that, the game can be regarded as a back and forth, and Zhang Yuan played even better in the position of 9 and a half, creating 2 or 3 chances for Kuranyi, which is not particularly good, but it is not bad, but unfortunately Kuranyi is still continuing his nightmare of not scoring in the league, always a little worse.

In the 88th minute, Nuremberg pulled a goal back, Charlie Steas forced a shot with the ball under the close mark of Degan, but was blocked by Neuer with his thigh, and Mintal followed up on the edge of the penalty area to break the Schalke 04 goal.

The goal saved them face, but they were unable to recover as they lost 2-1 to Schalke 04 at home in the first home game of the new season.

Magath was not very happy with the result, and the game was played later, Schalke 04's midfield was still a little inattentive, and the forward line Kulanyi still failed to seize the opportunity to score a goal to seal the win.

Zhang Yuan, who scored twice, was undoubtedly the man of the match and attended the post-match press conference with Magath after the game.

"Mr. Magath, in the first game of the new season, Schalke 04 got off to a good start, are you happy with the result?"

'I'm glad we got the three points and a good start is important for the whole season. ”

"What do you think of Zhang Yuan's performance in this game?"

"He's a very good player, he made a positive contribution to the team's win in this game, I'm very happy with him!" Magath said with a smile, he is indeed satisfied with Zhang Yuan, seeing that in the second half he even considered changing the midfield to a parallel position, so that Zhang Yuan could be more powerful.

"Zhang, are you satisfied with the result of this competition, and what do you think of your performance?"

"Nuremberg is a very strong team, I'm very happy that the team can get all three points! I'm happy with my own performance, I'm happy to score two goals in the first game of the new season, and of course the most important thing is that the team won! But on the premise of the team winning, I am willing to participate in the competition for the top scorer of the season, I hope to get the small steel cannon!" Zhang Yuan let out a bold statement.

Judging from the odds at the beginning of the season, Zhang Yuan's odds of actually winning the top scorer of the season are quite high, and he is currently ranked first.

Last season's scorers, two players from Wolfsburg, Grafitt and Dzeko, dominated the top two scorers, with Stuttgart's Gomes in third place and Schalke 04's Zhang Yuan in fourth place, who scored 23 goals.

However, this season, due to Magath's entry into Schalke 04, Zhang Yuan was optimistic, because Grafitte and Dzeko were not eye-catching in the previous season, but under Magath's tutelage, they won the top two scorers in the list.

Therefore, bookmakers have been optimistic about Zhang Yuan since the beginning of the season, and many companies have listed him as the most powerful contender for the top scorer.

The next day, all major media began to write, Zhang Yuan began to make it clear that the battle for shooters began in the first round, and two goals were the most powerful voices.

Surprisingly, there is no media to talk about it, Zhang Yuan's goal efficiency has proven that he is a reliable goalscorer, and the premise of all this is that Schalke 04 has actually always been a defensive-oriented team.

Magath's Wolfsburg scored more than 80 goals last season, and this season's arrival at Schalke 04 will inevitably improve Schalke 04's attack, and Zhang Yuan is one of the beneficiaries, and he will get more shots on goal.

On the contrary, some domestic media commented that this Zhang Yuan was too arrogant and did not have our Chinese fine tradition --- modest.

However, these voices are weak, and countless Zhang Yuan's fans agree with Zhang Yuan's statement, Nana's, China has finally appeared a player who can speak out, whether at home or abroad, Chinese players have always dared not make their thoughts clear, but Zhang Yuan is obviously not like this, everyone appreciates his daring to be arrogant.

Not to mention these gossips, on August 16, Schalke 04 will welcome the Ruhr area little brother Bochum team at home in the second round.

After the game with Nuremberg, on August 10, Zhang Yuan specially took a day off and specially called Mai Xuewen to Frankfurt to pick up the airport.

Originally, Zhang Yuan went home last year and arranged for Mr. Xie's family to come to watch the ball game, but because Mr. Xie also had to go to work, coupled with the obstruction of his wife, he had not been able to make the trip, but this time the summer vacation had not yet passed, and Mr. Xie finally said that his wife had made this trip to Germany.

Gu Lin is Zhang Yuan had planned to invite him over to play, and this time he happened to bring Teacher Xie over.

No matter how great Zhang Yuan's achievements are abroad, in Mr. Xie's heart, in fact, going to the country is what makes him the most proud of Zhang Yuan.

"Zhang Yuan, you have to win, play well in the national team in the future, and drive away all the bullshit Koreanophobia, Japanese phobia, and Iraqophobia, Chinese football depends on you!" Mr. Xie exclaimed excitedly.

"Teacher Xie, you think of me too fiercely! I work hard, I work hard!" Zhang Yuan said with a smile.

In the evening, Zhang Yuan accompanied them to dinner and chatted for a long time, from foreign life football to domestic football, and then talked about some major events in today's world football.

Mr. Xie is a real fan, he is a Manchester United fan, but he also knows a lot about other leagues, Gu Lin is a team that likes football, he can't play football, he is still very qualified to be a fan, and the three of them chatted very happily.

As for her mother, she lacks interest in football and only knows two players, one is Beckham and the other is Zhang Yuan. (To be continued.) )
