Chapter 229: Champions League Knockout Round
The most important thing in the back line is hesitation, once there is hesitation, as long as there is a player who is not in the same mind, the defense is basically equivalent to collapse.
The ability of the Eintracht Frankfurt players is generally not very strong, they have been working very hard to defend Guan Peng, and now they are still encountering this situation, and they can't think of how to deal with it.
Some players are still faithful to the coach's pre-match arrangements, but some players are already messed up and they think that the coach's arrangements are meaningless.
As a result, this kind of inconsistent thinking quickly led to bad consequences.
When the first half was about to end, Reus received a pass from Guan Peng, and a light lob near the baseline hit the ball into the opponent's goal, and the score became 2:0.
Losing two goals in the first half, or someone else's home stadium, how did Eintracht Frankfurt play?
The only thing they can do is to avoid a worse situation, avoid conceding more goals, at least save a little face, not too ugly.
Although it was not his own goal, Guan Peng was also very happy, with such an excellent teammate, the team's offense can play well, otherwise, if Guan Peng wants to win alone, it is nonsense.
Even though he scored a hat-trick against Bayer Leverkusen in the last game, he still wants to score without his team-mates? That's just delusion.
During this period of time, Guan Peng's outstanding performance made many people unaccustomed to it, and they couldn't hack Guan Peng's ability, so it was said that Guan Peng was just stained with the light of the Dortmund system.
Guan Peng does not deny this, he admits that he is indeed stained with the light of Dortmund's system, if he changes teams, he may not be able to perform so well, but so what? Is football a one-man football? It was meant to be a collective sport.
Guan Pengcai doesn't care about others saying that he is a system player, but he will be happy to have such a good system and such good teammates. It can help him achieve his dreams and make up for some of his shortcomings on the pitch.
Although Guan Peng is arrogant, rampant, and even a little arrogant, he will never have conflicts with his teammates, because he knows that everything about himself is closely related to his teammates, and if the relationship with his teammates is bad, then no matter how good your skills are, if others don't pass the ball to you, you will be useless.
Or many Temund people have the same consensus. That's why this team's performance is so good, which is the envy of many teams, but they can't imitate it.
Not long after Reuss scored, the first half was over.
Although Eintracht Frankfurt completely reined in the second half, with almost all of the players returning to their own half, even this defence could not stop Dortmund's powerful firepower, and Reus eventually scored another goal with more than 70 minutes to play. staged a brace to help the team seal the victory 3:0.
Guan Peng only scored one goal, but his tally still reached a terrifying eighteen, two more than second-placed Kiessling. If this continues, he will really be able to win the Bundesliga Golden Boot and become the first Asian in football history to win the Golden Boot in Europe's top five leagues, which is a great glory.
Until now. The league is already in the second half of the league and the end is getting closer and closer, as long as he can maintain the advantage. In the end, it is logical to win the golden boot.
Therefore, Dortmund's media praised Guan Peng's performance very highly, even more than Reus's brace, after all, Guan Peng said before the start of the second half of the season that he planned to win the Golden Boot, which has become a gimmick to attract the media and fans.
"Despite ending the crazy form of the last game, Guan Peng only scored one goal in this game, but 18 goals in 21 rounds, and 10 assists, can we not praise such an efficient player?"
There are also reporters who laughed and said, "If he scores a hat trick every time, then he will pay it back, and I am afraid that he will be arrested by some scientific research institutions for research." ”
"Yes, he is in such an excellent state, and some people say that he will fall into a trough because of those inexplicable scandals, and even eventually retire? Please don't say such ignorant things, okay? Isn't the number of times you have been slapped in the face enough? Did he score again today? What else do you want to say? Do you continue to curse him for not scoring in the next game? Don't do such childish things and grow up, kids. ”
The comments from the Dortmund media are obviously in response to some reports about the scandal in the Leverkusen media after the last round.
Now, Dortmund's media also like the taste of slapping in the face, although they have been slapped in the face by Guan Peng, but later joined the ranks of supporting Guan Peng, they have become fond of slapping others in the face, and Guan Peng does not seem to have disappointed them once.
Borussia Dortmund will end this Bundesliga match and will soon play the knockout round of the Champions League, against the old powerhouse of the Ukrainian Premier League, Shakhtar Donetsk!
In this season's Champions League group stage, Shakhtar Donetsk and Borussia Dortmund have played extremely well.
In the case of being in a group with Chelsea, Juventus and other strong teams, Shakhtar Donetsk eliminated the reigning Champions League champion Chelsea by finishing second in the group with their strong attacking strength.
Dortmund, on the other hand, is undefeated in the "Group of Death" where Real Madrid, Manchester City and Ajax are located, and the odds of winning the championship before the game are as high as the fourth place in the round of 16.
In the history of the two sides, there has only been one two-legged meeting. That was in the third round of the 2001-2002 Champions League qualifying round. In the Champions League qualifier at the time, Borussia Dortmund won 2-0 away thanks to goals from Ricken and Olisseh.
Back at home, Borussia Dortmund's attacking duo was impressive, with striker Kohler scoring twice and Amoruso netting a goal to help his side advance to the Champions League with a 3-1 victory. It is worth noting that the current Bayern midfielder Timoshchuk was playing for Shakhtar Donetsk at the time.
Shakhtar Donetsk haven't played in a competitive game for two months, with the most recent time they played was a home defeat to Juventus in the Champions League group stage on 6 December.
I have to say that although there is an advantage in the home field of ice and snow, it is still worrying that the miners who have been absent for a long time can play a few percent of their strength.
In this comparison, Dortmund, who have a dense schedule, have an advantage.
But even so, Dortmund, who is favored by most people, can't underestimate the opponent, Shakhtar Donetsk is also a regular in Europe, the team won the Europa League 4 years ago, and this season is in a group with Chelsea and Juventus. (To be continued.) )
