Gao Shunyao's goal made Wolfsburg usher in a victorious end in the last game of the first half of the season. Although this game to the end, Wolfsburg was not able to break through the 1-0 score, and their victory in the end still did not look good, but even if there was only one goal, 3 points were already in hand, in the last game of the first half of the season, Wolfsburg successfully increased their score to 40 points, sitting firmly in the second position of the league, following Bayern, ushered in the winter break.

The score of 40 points in half a season is definitely not a low score under the Bundesliga's system of only 34 games. After the first half of the season, the Wolfsburg players have achieved the expected effect of the team, and it can be regarded as a good winter for their team. Their scores are quite proud, and they are proud to have such results.

If it was a few years ago, such a score could even be a score that was firmly at the top of the list. However, times have changed, and the current 40 points, let alone trying to stay at the top of the table, or trying to ensure Champions League qualification, is not so easy.

Halfway through the season, looking at the situation they faced, Wolfsburg was also a little embarrassed to find that although they are still in the second place in the league, it is difficult to say whether the goal of the top three in the league this season can be achieved.

Of course, the Bundesliga is no better than it used to be, and even if it is fourth in the league, it still qualifies for the Champions League. However, a direct Champions League qualification and a qualification to play in the qualifying round, after all, it is still different, if it is possible not to play. Who wants to play more than that?

"For Wolfsburg, the first half of the season. They did a good job, and they didn't have many surprises in half a season. Fortunately, it still retains its strength. It's just that, as a strong team, they obviously still don't do enough, and if they really want to guarantee Champions League qualification, they are still doing well. ”

This kind of thing is not only being done by Wolfsburg, but in fact all the media in Germany are also summarizing the halfway point of the Bundesliga. And in their summary, it can also be found that Wolfsburg is doing well now. But the overall picture is not very rosy.

The champion naturally doesn't have to think about it, half a season has passed, and the difference between Wolfsburg and Bayern in front of him has reached 7 points, and it is difficult to catch up with such a difference. It is not easy to maintain the top three positions, and Bayer Leverkusen behind them, although they suffered another draw in this game, but compared with Wolfsburg, it is only two points away.

Maybe a game error. Bayer Leverkusen could be catching up. There is no doubt that they can still threaten the location of Wolfsburg. Especially when I think they don't have the task of playing in the Champions League, compared to Wolfsburg, in the league. They can concentrate more.

And if Bayer Leverkusen in third is only likely to catch up, then the fourth team will definitely catch up. The current fourth place in the league is Borussia Dortmund. Although in the final stage of the first half of the season, Dortmund ushered in a collapse. But the tiger is not dead, even Dortmund is much worse than before. But they are still the best team in the league. The impact of injuries can certainly weaken them a lot, but once the injuries are over. One can imagine how soon they will recover.

Borussia Dortmund will certainly not be content to settle for fourth place in the league and, like Wolfsburg, will have to finish at least in the top three. Second, such a goal will also make them compete more fiercely with Wolfsburg in the second half of the season, which is almost inevitable.

Neither Bayer Leverkusen nor Borussia Dortmund can be ignored, and the second half of the season at Wolfsburg will be no less tasking.

"Looks like Wolfsburg must do a good job of its training plan this winter."

Although the media generally believes that Wolfsburg's situation is not very good, many people still believe that Wolfsburg is still likely to get good results after this winter. Because if you look at it overall, in the first half of the season, Wolfsburg also suffered injuries, and they also had players who did not play well. After the halfway point, looking back at their performance, you can see a lot of regrets, which is of course sighing, but for Wolfsburg, these holes are also an opportunity to be filled.

After all, although Magath has always been considered a jerk, his training is really good. The poor performance of Wolfsburg in the first half of this season has a lot to do with their lack of training time in the summer. Compared with other leagues, the biggest advantage of the Bundesliga team is the long winter break, and if Magath can take advantage of this winter break, then Wolfsburg's strength may also be on a higher level.

"In the second half of the season, if Wolfsburg can train well and then bring in reinforcements, then in the end, their results will still be very good."

The media made their own predictions, and in making them, they also gave Wolfsburg a small piece of advice. In their opinion, if Wolfsburg wants to ensure its strength, in addition to training, it also needs reinforcements.

This kind of suggestion is not to say that the media thinks that Wolfsburg's current strength is not enough, but in their opinion, Wolfsburg's performance in the first half of the season cannot be said to be satisfactory, which makes many other teams covet Wolfsburg's players after the arrival of winter. For a team as underdog as Wolfsburg, it is important to show their confidence if they want to keep their players.

For a team, there are times when a transfer is not only about strengthening the squad on paper, but also about giving their players more confidence and making their enemies more fearful. And to put it mildly, in this regard, Wolfsburg must learn from Bayern.

After the arrival of January, the most eye-catching transfer is naturally none other than Lewandowski's official announcement of his ownership this winter. After a long period of conflict with the club, the transfer issue of Lewandowski, which has been noisy for two years, finally came to an end this summer.

On the occasion of January, Lewandowski officially announced that he would not renew his contract with Dortmund and would switch to Bayern when the summer arrived. The striker that Bayern had been looking forward to for a long time finally arrived in their hands, which is undoubtedly good news for Bayern.

Since the beginning of this season, with the arrival of Pep Guardiola, Bayern's tactics have been greatly adjusted compared to before. After Pep Guardiola arrived at Bayern, he brought his concept of possession to Bayern, on the bright side, Bayern's results are good, but on the other hand, their personnel and tactics also need to be adjusted a lot. Even players such as Muller, under Guardiola's tactics, have some uncomfortable situations, not to mention the important position of striker, which needs a lot of adjustments.

Mario Gomez, a former Bayern striker, was already disliked during the time of Heynckes. Although he used to be the highest value in the Bundesliga, the 30 million star has not been worth much until now, but because of his technical characteristics, he is just a pure center forward, and there is no problem in grabbing some impact or something, but more cooperation is not good enough, so he has always been a key player that Bayern wants to replace.

Changing strikers is not a trivial matter, especially changing a good striker needs to be found. And Bayern also understands the principle of slow work and meticulous work, they fell in love with Lewandowski early, and for two years, they have been making unremitting transfer efforts. During this period, Bayern is not without trouble, whether it is Gomez's serious injury, or Dortmund's forced retention last year, it has added a lot of unpredictable changes to Bayern, but even so, Bayern has never given up their idea of recruitment, on the one hand, they are indeed looking for a spare tire, but on the other hand, they have always insisted that Lewandowski is the person they are really waiting for.

The long-term dedication has finally paid off at this time. With Lewandowski and Borussia Dortmund tearing their faces, his contract will definitely not be renewed after it expires. And Real Madrid and other teams heard that he was going to transfer, and they all moved about him and paid close attention to him. However, when Lewandowski wants to transfer, he naturally will not forget Bayern's two-year wait. Such a team will definitely take care of him in various ways, so it is natural that he will also have a good eye for Bayern.

In the end, he decided to move to Bayern. His skills and abilities will be in Pep Guardiola's quest to get ahead.

And such a transfer is naturally extremely beneficial to Bayern's momentum. Although it is unknown whether Lewandowski will play well when he arrives at Bayern, but considering that Bayern waited two years to bring him in, at least people will think that this is definitely the most suitable answer for Bayern. Even if he will come to Bayern half a year later, finalizing this business is enough to make Bayern's momentum more powerful and more dynastic.

Last winter, Bayern finalized Pep Guardiola, and this winter, they got Lewandowski. For two winters in a row, they have used their excellent skills to influence the trend of the entire league. Even if there are no personnel changes, the pressure on Bayern and other teams is even greater.

This season's league championship is estimated to really be in their pocket - even if it is an opponent against Bayern, they have to admit that they have indeed put great pressure on themselves after finalizing Lewandowski now.

This kind of transfer makes players believe that their team will get better and better, which can be said to be an important aspect of transfer. And for Wolfsburg now, that's exactly what they need to learn. (To be continued.) )
