On October 20th, Gossau played a match in the second round of the Swiss Cup, and this year's signing luck was not too good, in the second round they drew last season's Swiss Cup final opponents, the young team, and they challenged the young people away. However, before this game, Xiao Yang got a good news, Antunovic returned from injury, but out of caution, Xiao Yang put him on the bench. After the start of this game, Gosau's form was not too good, Egerman looked a little tired after consecutive games, and missed simple scoring opportunities in a row, Gosau also fell behind the opponent 0:2 in the first half, and after the start of the second half, Antunovic replaced Ivanovic on the field, and Gosau's back line suddenly stabilized a lot. Eggman also broke out in the second half, scoring two goals in the 46th and 53rd minutes to equalize the score, and then Avandzini and Cardinhoe scored goals each to make Gossau a 4-2 reversal to advance to the third round. Eggman's tally reached 64, while Messi continued his brace to 70.
On October 23, in a match in the third round of Group E of the Champions Cup, Gosho defeated Schalke 04 1:0 at home, and Schalke 04's American defender Jones was unfortunately sent off again, and in the 43rd minute, he shoveled Gosau's forward Lima in a retreat, and received the second yellow card of the game, two yellows turned into one red and was sent off. In the 68th minute, Eggman scored the only goal of the game, taking his annual tally to 65.
Barcelona challenged Galatasaleyi away in this round of games, Galatasaleyi, who threatened to give Barcelona a little bit of a good look before the game, really fulfilled his promise, they also led Barcelona 3:1 in the first 80 minutes, Barcelona looked very uncomfortable in Galatasalei's hellish home stadium, until 80 minutes later, relying on Messi's outburst to draw Galatasalei 3:3. In the 81st minute, Messi made a light pick after a personal breakthrough to make the score 2:3, and in the 89th minute, Barcelona won a controversial penalty again, when Messi's free kick hit the hand of Galatasalei central defender Ruwens, and the referee immediately awarded a penalty, but the slow motion showed that Ruwens's hand did not leave his body at that time, but hugged his chest, and the penalty was also reluctant. Messi scored the penalty without any suspense, scoring twice to take his goal tally to 72 and turn the gap between himself and Egerman to seven.
Although Xiao Yang is also very concerned about the goal battle between Egerman and Messi, he is more concerned about Gosau's qualifying situation, now Barcelona 2 wins and 1 draw and 7 points continue to rank first in the group, while Gosau 2 wins and 1 loss and 6 points rank second in the group, Galatasaray 2 draws and 1 loss and 2 points rank third in the group, Schalke 04 sadly finished at the bottom of the group with 1 draw and 2 losses and 1 point, Xiao Yang can imagine how bad Magath is now, anyway, Xiao Yang's current mood is very good, With a desperate desire to score goals, the Gosho team is now invincible, and Xiao Yang believes that the Gosho team will definitely be able to occupy one of the two qualifying places in the group.
On 28 October, Gosau hosted promoted Bill in the league, and the weak Bill was unable to fight back in this game, losing a stunning 0-7, Egerman kept looking for a goal, and he also scored again in the game, with two of the remaining three goals coming from Coldinjo and one from Antunovic's penalty.
Eggman's annual total has reached 69, and Messi still scored twice this round to increase the number of goals to 74, and the gap between the two is 5 goals, a number that can even be achieved in a single game if Eggman is in good form. The Catalan media sourly said that Egerman would only score goals on the weak team, but they forgot that Barcelona's opponent in this round of the game, Rayo Vallecano, was also promoted, and the strength was not necessarily strong.
On November 2, Gossau played away to St. Gallen in the league, and because Gosau was going to challenge Schalke 04 away in the group stage of the Champions Cup on the 7th, this match was held a day earlier by the Swiss Football Federation. Now the St. Gallen team has regarded itself as Gosau's sworn enemy, they threatened to snipe the Gosau team in this game, but now their strength and Gossau has a big gap, Xiao Yang sent a large number of substitutes in this game, Silva, Tobinski and others are all on the field, but the strength of these people is not what the St. Gallen team can resist, they still lost 2:4, Egerman frantically scored a hat trick again, Esposito scored another goal.
Now after the weekly game, it has become routine for the European media to compare the goals of Egerman and Messi, and after this week, Egerman's goals have become 72, while Messi's goals are 76, and the difference between the two is only 4 goals. Messi still scored two goals in this round, raising his consecutive number of braces to 7 games, some fans joked that Messi fell into a hat drought, and now he will only score two goals, if the name is changed to "hat west", he will score a hat trick every game.
The frantic form of these two goalscorers has amazed the whole of Europe, and they are really scoring goals now, and with their current form, as long as there are no major injuries, it is very likely that they will break Gade twice. Muller's record of 85 goals in a single year, no matter who wins in the end, this is a rare occasion and will become a good story.
However, in the 4th round of Group E of the Champions Cup on November 7, Egerman first stopped his streak of goals, and in the away match against Schalke 04 of the Gosau team, Schalke 04 defended Egerman tightly, Egerman also showed a little fatigue, plus his bad luck, missed two opportunities to score, and finally he failed to score, Gosau relied on the goal of captain Avanzini to draw 1:1 away Schalke 04.
Xiao Yang is still quite satisfied with this result, although he defeated Schalke 04 home and away in the group stage of the League Cup last season, but that is mainly because Schalke 04 does not know the results of Gosau, plus after entering the Champions Cup this season, Schalke 04 has also strengthened its strength, so he can get 4 points in two games on Schalke, Xiao Yang is already very satisfied.
Barcelona's narrow 1-0 win over Galatasalei, with Messi scoring the only goal, halted his brace, but he still increased his tally to 77 goals and widened the gap with Egerman to five.
On 11 November, Gossau hosted Sion in the league, and Eggman scored twice again to give his team a 3-3 victory, with the other goal coming from captain Avanzini. His tally has reached 74, while Messi has only scored one goal in this round of the league, and the difference between the two is only four.
Now the whole of Europe, including the whole of Switzerland, are paying attention to the battle between Egerman and Messi for the number of goals, but no one notices that before they know it, Gossau has won another wave of 5 consecutive wins in the league, and now they have 15 rounds in the league, 13 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, accumulating 40 points and topping the table, which is already 12 points ahead of the second place Basel. Xiao Yang has noticed this, he is very satisfied with the points gap, and he wants to take advantage of Egerman's current hot form to get enough points advantage in the league in the first half of the league, so that the team can rotate more calmly when the second half of the Champions League knockout stage is approaching.
