Chapter 163: Full Fire

On February 11, at 8:45 p.m., in the quarterfinals of the German Cup, Bochum hosted Dortmund, in Germany, this game is also very interesting, because the two sides of the game are currently the top teams in the Bundesliga, and the strength is not much different, and it will be a wonderful game.

"Rong Rong, who do you think will win this game?"

The match between Bochum and Dortmund is also a rare moment for Lu Xueming's father and daughter to watch the game together.

"Of course it's us Dortmund!"

"But Dortmund just lost to Bochum last time." Lu Xueming joked.

"That game was just Shen Peng's extraordinary performance." Delia was not convinced.

"Speaking of Shen Peng, he also came that day, what do you think of him?" Lu Xueming smiled again.

"It's okay." Delia remembered the situation when Shen Peng came over that day, and she couldn't help but feel a little drooling.

"Well, Dad's vision is good, and with the eyes of people I've seen for many years, this kid is really good!" Lu Xueming continued to say in a seductive tone.

"Dad, I have something I want to ask you." Delia suddenly looked at Lu Xueming.

"What's the matter?" Lu Xueming was stunned.

"If someone else's daughter finds a boyfriend, their father is usually very reluctant, how can you push me out? Are you afraid that I won't be able to marry in the future? ”

Lu Xueming: "......"

Fortunately, at this time, the TV had already begun to introduce the starting lineups of the two sides, and Lu Xueming hurriedly said: "Watch the game, watch the game!" ”

In this game, Dortmund's central midfield quartet was striker Robert Lewandowski, wing-backs Grosskreutz and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, central midfielder Mkhitaryan, and Kuba and Reus, who had underperformed against Bochum last time, were on the bench.

There weren't much changes at the back, with Sarr and Friedrich still starting due to their previous experience in defending Shen Peng.

On Bochum's side, it is still the same formation as before, but many positions have been adjusted.

After the start of the game, just like the last time the two teams met, there were all kinds of rapid attacks on both sides, and there was no temptation at all.

After a couple of dangerous shots on both sides, in the thirteenth minute, Shen Peng opened the scoring.

After shaking off one of the opposing defenders, he fired a hidden boccia ball from the edge of the penalty area, which rolled into the back of the net before the Dortmund goalkeeper had time to make a save.

In the 22nd minute, Dortmund also colored, Mkhitaryan dribbled the ball in the middle to break through, attracted two Bochum defenders, and scored the ball to the side, Aubameyang hit at high speed, and equalized with a tricky shot!

In the 37th minute, Dortmund opened up Bochum's defense through running, and then Lewandowski received a pass from Grosskreutz and scored in front of the goal!

In the first half of injury time, Shen Peng encountered the opponent's three-person defense outside the penalty area, but this time he didn't plan to break through at all, and passed directly to the diagonal back of a pass, passed to Gorezka, who found a gap next to him, Gorezka met the ball and shot angrily, a powerful shot, and the ball grazed the crossbar and flew into the goal.

At the end of the first half, the two sides were tied 2-2, and the situation on the field was also evenly divided, with similar statistics on both sides, such as ball possession, Bochum's 47% was only slightly worse than Dortmund!

While the neutral fans were addicted, the managers on both sides were nervous, because this kind of evenly matched game, until the last moment, not knowing which side would win, was the biggest test for the head coach's on-the-spot command and the players' performance.

At half-time, managers on both sides began to analyse the circumstances of the first half to adjust their tactics.

In this regard, Klopp was obviously stronger than Neurureer, so at the beginning of the second half, Dortmund clearly suppressed Bochum on the field, Dortmund played more and more fluidly, and Bochum became more and more congested.

In the 54th minute, that advantage translated into a goal, when Borussia Dortmund played the ball up front, the Bochum defender was exhausted and showed a big flaw, which was caught by Dortmund, Mkhitaryan found Grosskreutz on the wing with a precise through shot, who had a shot saved by Luze, but Lewandowski, who was already hovering in front of goal, took advantage of the opportunity and scored from the spot.

And Shen Peng also got some effective support in these ten minutes.

"Jurgen, it looks like your tactics are working." Bwach said next to Klopp.

"Now Bochum's midfield and backfield can no longer cope with our offensive, in this case, Shen Peng will not be able to get the support of the midfield, and he will not have the ball in the front field alone, and it will not be of much use." Jurgen Klopp smiled, and now Dortmund's attacking ability in midfield has completely suppressed Bochum.

As the game progressed, Shen Peng did not have the support of his teammates, so he had to retreat frequently to get the ball, but once he retreated, he would encounter more Dortmund players' defense: in the forward position, if you get the ball, you may only need to face a few defenders, and in the midfield, you will have to face the opposing midfielder.

This makes it difficult for Shen Peng to bring the ball to the opponent's penalty area in the face of layers of defense after getting the ball, and it is also difficult to form an effective attack.

Seeing this scene, Neulurell didn't have a good way, in the final analysis, the overall strength of Bochum's other players was not as good as Dortmund, so he seemed a little passive.

Now he can only hope that the players can play beyond the norm.

In the 61st minute, Bochum tried to attack, but the pass was cut off by Borussia Dortmund's midfielder Shahin, and he immediately distributed the ball to Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who ran out of space next to him - this was also part of their tactics, giving Aubameyang the ball in midfield and allowing him to use his speed to break through the opposition's defence, and two of their previous three goals had Aubameyang's shadow on them.

Of course, this doesn't work well for teams that shrink their defense, but it's right for Bochum right now, who can't help but play against them, and Bochum's defenders are not very individual and many times Aubameyang can simply break through opponents with speed alone.

This time was no exception, as soon as he received the ball, he had already started, and his legs began to move forward at full speed like a high-speed spinning windmill!

According to the previous pattern, this time he will carry the ball forward, which will inevitably cause a stir in the Bochum backline, and the fans will boo him.

However, in his opinion, the boos are the biggest compliment for him, because it means that he is now a threat to the opposition goal.

However, this time, instead of boosing, the fans in the stadium suddenly cheered.
