Chapter 119: Defending the Rice Again (Second Watch)

Previously, when Bayern fell into a trough, Gomez, who lacked support, also fell to the bottom, from the Bundesliga to the Champions League, failed to score in four games, and in the second half, only scored 2 goals in 7 league rounds, which is "worlds apart" from his amazing performance of scoring 16 goals in 16 games in the first half of the season.

Instead of exploding in silence, it dies in silence, and in the end, Gomez chose the former.

Speaking to Bild before the game, he said: "I have to keep working hard now and be more determined in front of goal, against Bayer Leverkusen I almost scored and I am confident that I will score again in the next games!" ”

At this time, scoring a "hat-trick" will undoubtedly reduce the pressure on Gomez a lot, but it will not fundamentally solve the problem.

Although Gomes has scored 21 goals this season, and it doesn't seem much of a problem to surpass last season's 28, his goals have mostly come when he is downwind, and it is difficult to see him step up and seize opportunities to save the team when Bayern are in a slump as a whole.

In the first half of the season, in the Bundesliga, Bayern did not win 5 games, with a record of 1 draw and 4 losses, these five games, Gomez started all the games, but there was no result, in the second half, in the first 7 rounds of games, Bayern had four games that failed to win, with a record of 2 draws and 2 losses, Gomez also couldn't find a sense of breaking the goal. This is inevitably disappointing.

From the perspective of playing style, Gomez is a striker who relies more on midfield support, and when his teammates such as Robben and Ribery are in excellent form and deliver a lot of "cannonballs", he can often play well, and even his passing skills can follow.

However, since his debut, his psychological problems in tough games have always been a heart disease, and the lack of goal in the European Championship has made him languid in the national team for many years, and at Bayern, he has not been able to get out of this strange circle.

On the other hand, his competitor in the national team, Klose, although he is 33 years old, has just joined Lazio, and he has repeatedly staged stunners in Serie A, which is obviously something Gomez needs to learn.

The stars of the team blossomed collectively, Bayern Munich finally swept the opponent 7-1, and Ribery contributed three assists and one goal in this game.

Ribery has now scored 11 goals and is always chasing Guan Peng on the assist list, assisting his teammates to score 11 times, and Ribery has also exploded this season.

With a hat-trick of assists, Ribery has already sat in second place in the assists list.

Add to that his 11 league goals, and Scar continues to rock Europe with his striking attacking power.

Since joining Bayern in 2007, Franck Ribery has never disappointed anyone, and this time he helped his club win Hoffenheim, and Bayern can continue to walk with their heads held high.

In the just-concluded Bundesliga, Bayern defeated Hoffenheim 7-1 at home, and the team's form has recovered significantly, and the return of Schweinsteiger from injury at the core of the midfield has further improved the team's strength.

Now the Bayern fans are once again in their quest to win multiple titles this season, and the Munich fans celebrated for an hour after the game.

Now they are looking forward to next midweek game against Basel, and if they can turn it back at home, Bayern can once again dream of appearing in the Champions League final at Allianz on May 19.

Of course, the whole team remained cautious and low-key, and Kroos said soberly: "It's just a three-point game. ”

But Bayern fans don't think so, after all, there has been too much bad news for the team recently, and fans urgently need a big win to release the depression in their hearts.

Yesterday's game saw Gomes score a hat-trick and Arjen Robben scored twice before Franck Ribery and Kroos scored a goal each to give the team a 7-0 lead.

In the last minute, former Hoffenheim player Gustavo saved some face with an own goal, but it was already harmless.

During the game, the excited fans in the stands even sang the cheering song "Who is Barcelona", as if to demonstrate: "Barcelona can beat Bayer Leverkusen 7-1 at home, and Bayern can also play 7-1"

After a period of sluggishness, Bayern Munich released a lot of pressure through a 7-1 home win over Hoffenheim.

Borussia Dortmund were then held to a 0-0 draw by Augsburg, narrowing the gap between Bayern and the top of the table to five points, and the team hopes that this game will be a turning point for Bayern this season.

The Champions League clash with Basel at home in midweek is another crucial match, and if they can successfully qualify, it is believed that they can completely help the team out of the slump and reverse the decline.

In this situation, the team naturally wants to play in the best lineup, but fortunately, the piggy has returned in due time, which may help Bayern in the next games.

Dortmund's biggest concern at the moment is the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, where Dortmund travels to Inter Milan.

Inter Milan host Borussia Dortmund, the Nerazzurri were beaten 0-1 away by Borussia Dortmund in the first leg, and it is natural to return home to try their best for a comeback.

The recent form of the two sides has been delicate, with Inter failing to win nine games in a month and a half, with two draws and seven defeats dropping them to seventh in the table, but last weekend Inter finally managed to turn things around with a win away at Chievo.

Dortmund, on the other hand, has won eight consecutive victories in the Bundesliga, and its state can be described as popular.

Judging from the performance of Inter Milan in these two rounds, Ranieri's 4312 finally achieved initial results, and in the two games with Catania and Chievo, the team scored a total of 4 goals, sweeping away the embarrassment of 0 goals in the previous 7 games.

The biggest question for fans at the moment is undoubtedly who will play the role of Inter's savior in this life-and-death battle.

Sneijder has returned to form in the last two games, especially the battle with Chievo, playing what Ranieri called "the best game", while Milito has scored in two consecutive games, and the teenager Poli has also gradually improved and performed eye-catchingly.

It can be said that the overall state of the Inter team is better than the past month, and Alvarez will also usher in a comeback in this campaign, except for Zivo, who has accumulated yellow cards and is suspended, Ranieri can play this life-and-death battle with a relatively complete lineup.

There were also a lot of pre-match interviews about the players between the two teams, both players were hungry for a win, for Dortmund, there was no pressure, as long as they could perform well, and if they could score, it would be wonderful to knock out the opponents.
