"Hey, man, you're okay with your injury, right?" asked Hoffmann, who arrived a little later than him, in Schalke 04's home game against Hertha Berlin on November 7. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Hey, hello, Zhang Yuan, why didn't you show up?!" Joseph asked, tilting his head.

"Well, I'm a little injured! It's nice to meet you, Joseph!" Zhang Yuan could only say deceptively, and by the way, he stretched out his hand and shook it.

That's when he answered Hoffman's question, "No problem!

As one of Zhang Yuan's few friends, Hoffman also knew that Zhang Yuan was suspended internally, of course, he wouldn't talk much about it.

As soon as he had exchanged a few words, Neuer's family arrived, his brother and his parents, Neuer's father was a sheriff, and his brother was a football referee.

It is not the first time that the two sides have met, and in the past, as long as Neuer had a birthday party, he would definitely invite Zhang Yuan, so both sides were familiar with each other.

His father is a sheriff, but he is a one-eyed person, and his brother, like Neuer, is a person who is more able to regulate the atmosphere.

After everyone hugged each other, they began to sit down to watch the game.

Neuer's family are all fans of Schalke 04, and this season Neuer is very proud to be the captain of Schalke 04.

They often come to the stadium to watch the game, but their favorite is the North Stand, but the box is not very often, and in general, several joint venture leases are a bit of a loss.

Everyone was chatting, and the game was soon underway.

Magath's starting lineup has not changed much, it is still a diamond-shaped midfielder, Zhang Yuan was suspended internally, and this teacher unexpectedly used Rakitic as a partner with Kuranyi in the front line, which is really brain-opening.

In the summer he kept Kobiashvili and Altentop Jr., but these two have been substitutes so far more than half of the main team, and instead Magath has promoted the youngsters.

During the summer training, he said ruthlessly, we are not a place to give you basic skills, but in practice, he let young people get started and accumulate game experience.

Judging from the current results, after more than ten rounds of trembling, his team's lineup run-in has finally seen certain results.

After more than 10 minutes of chaotic fighting, Schalke 04 began to gain the upper hand, but the old problem still exists, the midfield defense is more than enough, but creativity cannot be talked about, Schalke 04 can not break the deadlock.

Half-time 0:0.

"It's too urgent!" said Neuer's father, beating his leg beside him.

He was right, Schalke 04 played positional battles, and once they arrived in front, they couldn't tear apart the opponent's defense, and immediately made various types of crosses, which was useless at all.

The players on the field wanted to win the game too much, and they were inevitably a little impatient in their mentality, and Magath was still cheering on the sidelines.

At this time, there was applause and cheers on the court, and it turned out that the camera was aimed at Zhang Yuan, who was watching the game in the box.

On the big screen at the scene, Zhang Yuan happened to be sitting on the table and chair, looking at the venue in a daze.

He was actually thinking about why the team couldn't open the situation.

Joseph couldn't wait to wave his hand to the camera in front of Zhang Yuan, opened his mouth and laughed, he also woke Zhang Yuan up, Zhang Yuan hugged him and waved to everyone.

"Zhang Yuan, you're really the most popular one in Schalke! I'm also a big fan of yours!" Neuer's mother joked.

Zhang Yuan is of course popular, he has been in Schalke 04 for less than two seasons, but Zhang Yuan has contributed nearly 50 goals to Schalke 04, no player is more efficient than him, how many times Zhang Yuan scored for Schalke 04 at critical moments.

Although limited by the strength of the team, he has never been able to win any of the crowns, but Zhang Yuan's performance has made Schalke 04 fans impeccable, as the team's current number one star, he has received more support than Neuer.

Zhang Yuan was a substitute in the game that played Bayern Munich, but the fans were very unhappy after the game and left a message on the official website, why can't Zhang Yuan play?!

Why did Magath hide the fact that he knew about the injury, deliberately preemptively, and also had the idea of knocking down the aura of the team's number one star, I even dared to move Zhang Yuan, who else among you I can't move?!

After the break, the game continued, and Magath on Schalke 04's side made tactical adjustments, and he couldn't attack for a long time, and his solution was to increase the attacking players in the frontcourt.

Let Rakitic drop back to play in midfield and bring on Altentop Jr. to partner Kuranyi.

The effect was obvious, and under Rakitic's management, the midfield's playmaking ability improved, and in the 59th minute, Schalke 04 finally took the lead. Raphinha's corner kick from the right side was pushed to the back post, Schmitz on the left side crossed the ball again, Digan nodded the ball to the ferry, and Kuranyi's header from the left side of the small penalty area was easily scored, 1-0! It was also Kuranyi's 100th goal in the Bundesliga.

Everyone in the box stood up and cheered, Zhang Yuan also applauded his teammates, why couldn't Magath see Rakitic's role in midfield?!

He cried out for his friend.

After taking the lead, Schalke 04 did not take a defensive stance and continued to attack to put pressure on the opposition, although the team was not at its best.

A draw would have been acceptable for Hertha Berlin, but now that Schalke 04 have scored, Hertha Berlin naturally has no need to defend again, and they have begun to counterattack to a limited extent.

In the 78th minute, Hertha Berlin had its best chance since the opening. Using a quick counterattack, Hertha Berlin distributed the ball to the right after a series of smooth short passes, Piszczek burst into the right side of the penalty area and stabbed Schmitz from a small angle, Neuer barely blocked the ball, and Ramos volleyed sideways in front of the small penalty area and hit the empty goal high!

The Schalke 04 fans in the stands broke out in a cold sweat, and everyone didn't want to see Schalke 04 get a draw at home.

In the 82nd minute, Altentop Jr., who was replaced at halftime, was replaced by Magath with Sanchez because he did not have the desired effect on the field, Zhang Yuan also thought that Altentop Jr. was indeed too bad, almost invisible on the field, and his contribution to the team tended to be close to zero, and now Schalke 04 is a 433 formation, which is equivalent to scrapping on his side.

In the 86th minute, Jankel tackled Raphinha while defending at the back, but received a second yellow card and was sent off.

Schalke 04 sealed the win in the first minute of stoppage time. Sanchez burst into the box on the left and was tackled by von Bergen, the referee blew for a penalty, and Raphinha hit it, 2-0.

Compared with the previous games, although Schalke 04 was not in good shape in this game, they still had an absolute advantage on the field, which is a very good phenomenon.

Magath also said in his post-match press conference that the team is slowly getting back on track, and he is confident about Schalke 04's future.

When the reporter asked the reason why Zhang Yuan was not included in the squad in this game, the answer he gave was that Zhang Yuan had not participated in the team's training and games for a long time, so he did not play in this game, but he assured that Zhang Yuan would definitely return in the next game.

His statement also completely stopped the recent media speculation, Zhang Yuan's injury was known to everyone, and Magath was not the first time to have conflicts with Chinese players, and a Chinese player also lost trust in Magath first because of the national team game.

The real story is not clear to the outside media, but it does not prevent them from guessing whether Zhang Yuan has lost Magat's trust.

But in today's post-match press conference, Magath undoubtedly told everyone that there is no contradiction between him and Zhang Yuan, and he still trusts Zhang Yuan very much.

Zhang Yuan's three consecutive outings have finally come to an end, and he himself is working hard to convince Magath in his next game against Werder Bremen, showing the side that Magath is happy to see.

However, Werder Bremen is not a good master to deal with, after the sinking of last season, they routinely raised their heads again, this season they have 7 wins, 7 draws and 1 loss, accumulating 28 points, and currently the same point as Schalke 04, but they score more goals than Schalke 04, conceding fewer goals than Schalke 04, relying on goal difference is currently ranked above Schalke 04.
