254, the king of warm-up games
Just one day later, Bayern Munich met Borussia Dortmund in the final.
Everyone knows that this season's Bundesliga will be a marathon for the title between these two teams.
If the Bundesliga giants, who have invested heavily in a number of strong reinforcements, want to return to their supremacy, they must challenge the Hornets who have swept the league with a storm of youth.
With homegrown coach Jurgen Klopp at its core, the Dortmund team is very young from the players, coaches, and even the support staff.
Most of their main players are in the 88-90 age group, and the two aces of the team's attack are Shinji Kagawa in '89 and Mario Gotze in '92!
The youngest player in the team, Gotze, is known as the "German Messi", and is even more talented than Thomas Muller and Toni Kroos!
In a pre-match interview with the authoritative German media Bild newspaper, the future star of Germany's most likely Ballon d'Or was dismissive about Bayern's recruitment policy this summer:
'Even if you invest a lot of money, you don't necessarily have to be successful, Chelsea is an example. Bayern have a super team, but Borussia Dortmund proved last season that we can play great football as well.
Bayern spent 70 million and we spent almost nothing, but no one can deny that we are still the favourites for the Bundesliga title. ”
He also commented on this summer's Bundesliga transfer king:
"Dragons? I don't know him very well, I only know him from a few knockout games in the Champions League.
He's fast and defensively good, but that's not enough to put him in the mainstream, and he'll need to work harder to adapt to the rhythm and style of German football sooner......"
Long Shut can see that the German youngster, who is full of aura, will be the savior of the German chariot in the World Cup final three years later, and the 19-year-old and 1-month-old Gotze has a top-level talent that is beyond the reach of the 21-year-old and 2-month-old Longshut!
Kagawa and Gotze, these two players are not very fast, and their bodies are not strong, but they both have quite good ball sense and ball intelligence, coupled with the tacit understanding formed in a season, the midfield of the two is enough to sweep most teams in the Bundesliga.
But they were up against one of the most defensively capable midfielders in the Eredivisie and Champions League last season.
So they crashed into a wall of copper and iron.
Lonshit, Schweinsteiger, Gustavo, Bayern's midfield trio made Dortmund's small fast goal completely unpowered!
If the opponent is Mainz or another team, the Bayern players may not be so serious.
But in the face of the opponent who killed himself twice last season and took away his Bundesliga championship salad plate, even Lahm, the calm captain, couldn't help but get active, frequently cutting diagonally forward from his own area and actively participating in the attack.
Heynckes, eager to prove himself with a win, is better than Louis van Gaal, while Jurgen Klopp on the other side will be hoping to continue his strong run against Bayern.
It was a warm-up game, but both teams played a smoke.
-
Shinji Kagawa fell to the ground again.
He watched in disbelief as Lonshette intercepted the ball at his feet from the side.
This is the third time that he has been called the best Japanese in ball combination ability...... was intercepted three times by a Chinese player!
Even the defensive midfielder, who has been famous in the Bundesliga for a long time, may not be able to complete the defense so easily in the face of Shinji Kagawa, who is in good form.
Shinji Kagawa slowly stood up thumping on the turf, and all he could see in his sight was a red back flying away like a sharp arrow.
He suddenly remembered.
Just half a year ago, in Qatar, in the final of the Asian Cup......
Although he was sidelined due to injury, he watched the video of the game after the game and heard many details from his national team teammates.
"That China's No. 8...... There is no rival in the Asian context. ”
"Especially his speed...... Definitely not something we can fight against! ”
This time, Shinji Kagawa realized how terrifying the "speed of Captain China" that those teammates talked about was terrifying.
Just got up from the ground after falling, and in such a short period of two or three seconds, the figure had already rushed to the top of the arc of the big forbidden area near the middle circle!
-
Borussia Dortmund's defensive midfielder, 22-year-old Sven Bender, who was not at all sven, knew that he could not stop Ronshit who was dribbling the ball at full speed, but still stretched out his right foot towards the opponent, ready to stop Bayern's attack with a reckless foul or even a yellow card.
But as soon as his right leg poked out, a black shadow came from below!
Crotch?!
Bender's mind was suddenly empty, but his heart was cold!
Then there was an indescribable force in his right leg!
It's like crashing into a high-speed train!
The German strong man, who weighed nearly 80 kilograms, was involuntarily knocked to the side!
He couldn't stop the train!
-
Long Shute visibly stumbled.
Bender's interception almost made him lose his center of gravity, and he almost fell to the ground.
But having inherited Suarez's ability to balance, he just put his hands on the turf and started to accelerate again!
Klopp was dumbfounded on the sidelines, while Heynckes was terrified.
Compared to scoring goals and victories, Hai Gonggong Geng was worried that such a forced acceleration would cause more damage to Long Shute's hands and knees!
But his fears didn't happen.
The high-speed train was moving steadily, and after entering the penalty area, it selflessly chose to pass the ball......
Gomez's close-range effort broke the 10-finger pass of Dort's goalkeeper Weidenfeller, and it was already the third goal of the game conceded by the Dort vice-captain......
With a 1-3 scoreline, Klopp could only shake his head repeatedly.
Bayern are missing Arjen Robben and Ribery, but they are equipped with a sharper knife – and it will also be the most solid shield and sledgehammer when necessary than the Robery, which has little effect on the defensive end!
It only took him half time to hammer Gotze, the most brilliant player in the Dortmund squad, into a stake!
-
Götze, who was replaced by Jurgen Klopp back in the 30th minute, is now on the bench.
His legs gradually revealed a few purple bruises, which looked a little scary.
The therapist was giving him a simple massage, and the pain from time to time made Götze clench his fists.
"It's not a big deal, it's all a hard injury in the confrontation, and you can recover after two nights of rest."
Noticing the manager's concerned gaze, the experienced physiotherapist said.
Klopp was a little relieved.
Although he would love to continue his winning run against Bayern, he ...... He didn't want his team's core players to get injured in such an inconsequential warm-up match more than to win.
After all, the current Dortmund sanatorium is overcrowded, and all of them are absolute workhorses!
Let Heynckes get this contentless championship trophy.
Let that little Chinese guy get the best player in this warm-up event.
See you in the new season!
