Chapter 421: There is also the pursuit
Compared with Dortmund's press conference at this time, the previous Bayern Munich press conference was much calmer. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Because Bayern had already decided to win the championship at the end of the last round, there was no need to even say congratulations this time. However, Lewandowski, who showed a little unwilling at that time, also said that he would try his best to win the Golden Boot in the later schedule.
In the end, someone mentioned this question to Lin Yi, and Lin Yi, who was already leaning on the back of the chair, made an exception and answered him.
"I'll call him personally and tell him not to daydream."
The day was completely over, and when Lin Yi drove Eva out of the stadium, someone outside the West-*** stadium had already pulled up a slogan, expressing the hope that the head coach could stay.
Despite Klopp's poor results this season, it is undeniable that he could still win two titles.
Choosing to leave the team under such circumstances is also difficult for some old fans with feelings to accept.
But no matter how the fans retained, Klopp did not come forward to make any response, it was completely a situation where the overall situation had been decided.
This round of the game scene was already very exciting, but the public opinion that appeared after the game made everyone completely forget the content of this game.
While many media outlets are lamenting Klopp, they have also begun to vote for who will appear here as Klopp's successor next season.
There are also a small number of people who are looking forward to Klopp's whereabouts, whether to retreat or find another home.
There are a lot of things that happen every day, whether you think about it, or don't want to.
But the only constant is that time keeps moving forward.
After the game against Bayern Munich, Dortmund had a day of rest before heading to London.
They will travel to White Hart Lane for the second leg of the Europa League quarter-finals.
Although there are many teams in London that divert the local fans, every major game, whether it is Stamford Bridge or Emirates Stadium or White Hart Lane, is always full.
Tottenham may have the least number of fans among the three big names in London, but their fans are definitely the craziest.
The away team's dressing room, which was already very soundproofed, was almost shaken down by the singing and shouting outside.
Jurgen Klopp now has to shout when he sets up his pre-match set-up.
"We have an advantage, don't be too nervous, just like the last time we played against them, as long as we scored first! And they collapsed. ”
By this time, Klopp seemed to be reluctant to continue to make any tactical arrangements for Dortmund, and after he said a few words, he walked out of the dressing room and everyone was ready to play.
Lin Yi stood up, still gathering his teammates around him as before.
"There are only a handful of games in which Jurgen can still coach us, and as things stand, there could be some changes to our team at the end of the season. Cherish the last time we can play together, come on. ”
Lin Yi's every word was very calm, and after he finished speaking, he walked into the players' tunnel without looking at any of his teammates.
Tottenham made some minor changes, such as Frenchman Capoue being replaced by Englishman Eric Dier.
But it was still Loris who was standing next to Lin Yi.
Lin Yi turned his head to look at this Frenchman with very deep eyes, and wanted to say a few trash words, but suddenly felt uninterested.
"You played a great game last time." It was Lorris's side who spoke first.
'If you can keep that form this season, the last round of the Bundesliga won't be so painful.'
Lin Yi didn't expect this Frenchman to say a few words to him, and there was no sarcasm in his tone.
"Who knows? If we had played to that level in every game this season, maybe it wouldn't be Juventus who will play Real Madrid in the Champions League now. ”
Loris was noncommittal and changed the subject directly, "But we are not so easy to deal with!" Even if you show that state again, we must defeat you. ”
"Courage is commendable, but ideas are terrible. But what about the three balls, how to chase them? Besides...... Can you stop me from shooting? ”
Lloris pursed his lips and did not continue to discuss this topic with Lin Yi, but followed the referee to the court.
Lin Yi smiled, it seems that he was asked by himself and lost confidence, this is not good, even if he brags, he can't lose his momentum.
Borussia Dortmund kicked off first, and Lin Yi, who continued to play as a central striker today, stood in the center circle, and standing opposite him was Mechtaaryan.
Today, Dortmund are still a "4-2-1-3" with a double midfield, but Kaka has been replaced by Mechtaryan.
Ji Dongwon's unexpected injury in the last round led to Kaka's very sudden substitution, and by this time in the season, physical reserves have become a big problem. Every appearance may require careful planning.
"Henrik, you press forward more in this game, rely on your long-range shot to find opportunities, I'll grab the second point, and I'll help you open up the space for long-range shots." Lin Yi said.
Mechtaryan has been playing for Dortmund for so long, because Lin Yi is too eye-catching and because of the presence of Reus, he has always been a fringe main player.
But after such a long time, there is still a tacit understanding. Hearing Lin Yi's words, he nodded and passed the ball over.
Paulinho and Dier both stepped back deep today, and it was clear that they didn't take the plunge just because they were behind.
Lin Yi's several pulls did not bring Mehitaryan any good opportunities.
Yo? Looks like it's a change of play today. Lin Yi turned his head to look at the Tottenham Hotspur dugout on the sidelines, where Pochettino was sitting and Lin Yi couldn't see his face clearly.
Wiping the water on his face, today's London is very face-saving, and there is no such drizzling rain, but the humidity is still there.
Lin Yi gestured at Royce on the side, and Royce raised his head and began to retreat.
'Tottenham's defensive strategy changed today, although they didn't have to mark Lin like they did in the previous leg, but they achieved their goal. Kyle said to Klopp.
Since the last time he announced his departure, Klopp, who had been doing business as usual, raised his wrist and looked at the time.
"But if they keep dragging it like this, they can't afford to drag it, three balls, they want to chase it back, it's definitely not that easy. Not to mention taking a completely defensive stance as it is now. ”
As he spoke, Paulinho lunged forward very suddenly, and Mechtalian, who was holding the ball, cut off the ball directly.
After the break, he strode the ball forward, and it was very fast.
Tottenham's Lennon and Lamela up front, as well as Harry Kane, showed great layering in this counter-attack.
Kane and Lennon stepped forward together, but Lamela joined Eriksen in midfield and pulled out the formation to pick up.
Paulinho poked the ball very roughly, and rushed past Sven Bender.
Seeing that Paulinho was still rushing forward, Gundogan had to go up and block the gunhole.
Because the Brazilian has a very violent long-range shot, he must not be allowed to find a chance in this position.
As soon as Gundogan stood in his position, Paulinho lifted his arm and carried him outside.
Before he could react, Paulinho passed the ball straight to Eriksen.
Eriksen, who picked up the ball on the left, gave full play to the balance of his feet, and raised his left foot, which seemed to pass the ball to Lamela, but in fact it was to the middle.
Harry Kane took a big step to the side, rubbed the ball with the inside of his foot, and slammed his right leg wide as he caught up with the football.
Eriksen's pass was clever and well-timed, and Kane was in the box where he received the ball.
It was still Longerak who started today, with the Australian in no hurry to block the flanks as Lamela and Eriksen after the pass were both rushing towards the box from the opposite direction of Kane.
If he had blocked the angle in the past, Kane would have only had to pad the bouncing ball into the box.
But now, if he chooses to shoot straight at goal, can I stop it?
Langlaque's quick reflection was immediately answered.
Harry Kane didn't pass the ball, even though two of his team-mates had run to what looked very good.
Equally surprising was his choice of shot, as he didn't kick the ball into the undefended near corner of Longrack, but bounced off the ball and swept it into the far corner behind Longrak.
The shot was like a cushion, and the ball flew in an arc and fell behind him.
Longrac stepped back and raised his hand, trying to shoot?! It's not that simple.
But as he stepped back and looked up, Longrac suddenly sensed that something was wrong.
The ball is very fast, and if I just step back like this, I may not be able to stop it. Langlak sped up his movements while trying to spread his arms as much as he could, trying to be able to block the larger space.
But the end result is ...... Still can't stop it.
In fact, it's not that Longerak can't stop it, it can only be said that Kane's shot is too high quality, the angle is too tricky, and finally the football hit the inside of the post and bounced into the goal, and Longerak, who has been leaning on his back, is still a step slower after all.
After the goal, Kane frantically rushed to the sideline and slipped to his knees in front of the stands.
The atmosphere at White Hart Lane was ignited in an instant, with fans frantically chanting Kane's name.
From this youngster, they see not only the wonderful goals and the possibility of winning at the moment, but also the hope of next season.
Although Dortmund was a little surprised, it would be a bit of an exaggeration to say that they were blinded by this one goal.
But at the moment they are really in a very uneasy mood, because Kane's goal is a bit too good.
The opponent's goal is wonderful, which is often reflected in the mistakes of his own side.
Longerak, who was still in a backward state, leaned against the post, looked at the ball in the goal, and opened his mouth for a long time not knowing what to say.
In the end, Lin Yi walked back from the front court, stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder.
"Don't panic, it's only 1-3, and besides, it's not like we can't score. Wait for me to go into one and let them know what despair is. ”
Longrac was tempted to smile that he would not be affected, but in the end he looked more like he pouted.
Pochettino took advantage of this time to call Paulinho to his side and quickly instructed him to pay attention to the rhythm.
"Try to watch out for the Chinese shot on the other side, but don't be too deliberate. Otherwise, like in the last game, we will still suffer. ”
Klopp shook his head, although Sven Bender has grown up very quickly, but his partnership with Gundogan or Shahin, it is not difficult to see that in the late game, it is still not as solid and trustworthy as Bender and Kyle last season.
Just like the goal just conceded, if it weren't for Gundogan's weak defense, it would never have been like this.
If we can bring in a tougher midfielder next season, maybe there will be a different tactical approach.
But that's not something I need to worry about, and maybe the future manager has already thought about it and someone has chosen it.
Thinking about this, Klopp turned his head and called Shahin, "Nuri, you go and warm up, you are ready to play in the second half, just keep it." ”
Anyway, it's 3 to 1, instead of fighting so hard, it's better to do a good job of defense and physical fitness......
In fact, Klopp also hopes that he can be like Guardiola, with enough players to allow him to rotate as he wants, but the team does not have such conditions, the good ones can't be bought, and the bad ones are bought...... Look at these people in the team, it's really useless.
Tottenham's players were also put together on an ad hoc basis, and although Kane's strong performance led the manager to finally decide to abandon the aging and declining Adebayor, the time to try new tactics was a bit short, and Kane had to rely more on his own individual strength to fight alone.
As for Dortmund, although their results this season are not good, several players in the front court have a good cooperation and tacit understanding after all.
It's like in stoppage time in the first half, Lin Yi, who was holding the ball with his back, hooked the ball and picked it up, and passed the ball to the feet of Aubameyang on the side very accurately.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang played an inverted triangle pass and Reuss, who cut in the middle, pushed the ball into the back of the net behind Lloris.
4-1, Tottenham must score four more goals if they want to win......
At half-time, Pochettino looked at the score and technical statistics, just shaking his head freely.
It looks like we have to come back next season, but there's nothing to regret because we're going to get better next season.
In the end, Dortmund defeated Tottenham Hotspur 3-0 at home and 1-1 away with an aggregate score of 4-1 to advance to the semi-finals of the Europa League.
