Chapter 140: Anti-Guest-oriented

After fifteen days of intensive training in the warm south of Spain, the Dortmund team returned to Dortmund, still covered with goose feathers and snow. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It felt like you'd been in a completely different parallel world.

On the evening of 19 January, Borussia Dortmund will take on Werder Bremen away for a match in the 18th round of the league.

Now Dortmund and Bayern Munich are only two points apart, which is a very suspenseful point difference, Klopp's strategy for the team is to try to catch up with Bayern Munich before the start of the Champions League knockout round, if they can overtake them in points.

Dortmund's first Champions League knockout game is on the night of 13 February, less than a month away.

Borussia Dortmund have four league games to play in that time.

They are away to Werder Bremen in the 18th round, Nuremberg at home in the 19th round, Bayer Leverkusen away in the 20th round, and Hamburg at home in the 11th round.

Those four games may be relevant to Dortmund's league title this season. Because when the Champions League knockout rounds begin, Dortmund will inevitably be distracted, and no one can guarantee what will happen in the final sprint to the league.

In the same period of time, Bayern Munich's opponents were Fürth, Stuttgart, Mainz and Schalke 04. The home-and-away order is Home, Away, Away, Home.

It's hard to say whose opponents are tougher to play against, and it's hard to say whose schedule is more advantageous.

Instead of focusing on how your opponent is, try to do your best and play your game.

Coincidentally, after the eighteenth round of the Bundesliga, the twenty-first round of the Ligue 1 will start on the evening of January 20. This is likely to be He Ying's first game since joining Paris Saint-Germain.

It can even be said that He Ying's game has attracted more attention in China than Dortmund's. Because everyone knows that it is impossible for Zhou Yi to play as a substitute, but He Ying's fate has touched the hearts of many people, and everyone wants to see what kind of performance He Ying can have after experiencing such a change.

Borussia Dortmund's away game against Werder Bremen started in the snow on the evening of 19 January, with loan signee Shaheen sitting on the bench and not in the starting line-up. This arrangement shows that Klopp really does not intend to let Shaheen be the main player, and his positioning of Shaheen is a rotation player.

And Shaheen didn't have any objection to this, he knew very well that after he had experienced so many things, it would be good to return to Dortmund and still play, as for the main core, don't even think about it, it's better to be down-to-earth.

The setbacks at Real Madrid and Liverpool have made the former talented teenager seem more low-key and pragmatic, and he seems to look down on a lot of fame and fortune.

Jurgen Klopp fielded almost the strongest squad at home in this game. Lewandowski, Mark, Reuss, Zhou Yi and Gotze all appeared in the attacking lineup.

Dortmund's attacking firepower led to Dortmund's onslaught, and in the ninth minute, Reus seized the opportunity to open the scoring for Dortmund.

Ten minutes later, Gotze received the ball from Mark and fired home from close range to give Dortmund a 2-0 lead over Werder Bremen.

"In less than 20 minutes, Dortmund had a two-goal lead! and it was away from home, which speaks volumes about the quality of this Dortmund team in the Bundesliga today. If nothing else, the title race will be between Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich this season. Duan Xin commented.

"Thanks to the geothermal facilities, we were able to see the green turf, but unfortunately, the heat didn't seem to be able to reach the players in Werder Bremen, who acted as if they were frozen on a cold winter night. On the other hand, the Dortmund players are much more flexible than Werder Bremen, perhaps because the Dortmund players are always running, they don't feel cold at all, and they are not ......affected by the weather," Marcel Leif said of the performance of the players on both teams.

In this game, Werder Bremen did not perform very well, their players did not seem to have recovered from the winter break, and the players seemed to be still celebrating Christmas.

In the second half, Yibian fought again, just three minutes into the beginning, Zhou Yi sent a curling ball with the outside instep of his right foot outside the penalty area, and the football bypassed the defenders of Werder Bremen and accurately fell to the feet of Mark, who faced the football sent by Zhou Yi, did not stop the ball, but chose to push directly, the angle was very awkward, and the football rolled into the goal by grazing the far post.

"3:0! Mark Wagner! The suspense of this match is completely over1" Marcel Leif shouted. "At the start of the second half, Dortmund used a fast break to score again, and Werder Bremen were three goals behind at home and it was hard to get it back!"

Werder Bremen certainly didn't want to concede defeat on their home turf and their head coach Schaaf made two changes in one go, replacing defender Pledel with young Turkish midfielder Ozkan Yilderin and Nigerian striker Joseph Akpala for another striker Petersen.

Hopefully the attack can be improved.

However, Dortmund already have a three-goal lead and there is no need for them to continue to risk attacking and allowing Werder Bremen to sneak up. So under the leadership of Zhou Yi, Dortmund began to play control the ball and consciously slowed down the tempo.

In this situation, Klopp also made a change, replacing Reus with Kuba and Gotze with Shahin.

Shaheen returned to the field and will sit in the back to assist Zhou Yi to control the tempo together.

The game progressed gradually for the eightieth minute without either side scoring. Borussia Dortmund are not in a hurry, they have a three-goal lead anyway, and Werder Bremen looks impatient.

At this time, Zhou Yi realized that Dortmund could no longer slow down the pace. Because anyway, there are three minutes left in the game, and it may not be impossible for Werder Bremen to chase three goals in a row to equalize the score in these ten minutes, but the probability is really low and scary. In such a situation, there is no need for Dortmund to continue to stall for time, but can try to attack, maybe there will be more gains?

The Bundesliga is different from the Champions League, in the case of two teams with the same points, they do not compare the relationship between each other's wins and losses, but first compare the goal difference, so being able to get more goal difference in the game is also to add more winning weight to the situation that may occur in the future.

So he found a chance to kill the ball, ran to Shahin's side, and told Shaheen his plan in his ear with his hand over his mouth.

Sha Xin has no objection to this, everything is according to Zhou Yi's ideas, he just assists.

When the game resumed, Zhou Yi quickly instigated a successful offensive, and finally the full-back Piszczek who inserted the assist assisted Lewandowski to score, Dortmund led Werder Bremen 4:0!

Lewandowski's goal completely killed the suspense of the game, and now Werder Bremen has only one choice left, which is to try to score a face-saving goal. It's too ugly to have someone shaved on your home turf......

So in the last ten minutes, Werder Bremen's offensive turned out to be even more frenzied.

Of course, in the face of the crazy counterattack of Werder Bremen, Zhou Yi did not have a weak foot, and in the 86th minute, he assisted Kuba to score the last goal of this game for Dortmund.

"5:0!Kuba!!Dortmund have such a big lead over Werder Bremen away from home!" Marcel Leif was a little surprised, "Werder Bremen had a bad start to the second half of the league, and it seems that their road to relegation this season is not easy!"

In the end, Borussia Dortmund beat Werder Bremen 5-0 away to get them off to a flying start in the second half of the league.

In the match between Bayern Munich and Fürth at home in the earlier game, Bayern Munich beat Fürth with a score of 2:0, and the two teams still have a two-point difference.

In the league, though, it's not that important to win or lose a match. Compared to the Champions League, the league is a marathon, and the most important thing is the heart and stability. As long as Dortmund keep winning, be patient, there will always be chances.

After Zhou Yi's game, the game that Chinese fans are most concerned about is coming.

Not long after Borussia Dortmund's game, Paris Saint-Germain announced their squad for the upcoming matches, and manager Carlo Ancelotti added He Ying to the squad, meaning he will have a chance to play.

This game is not only concerned by domestic fans, but also by Zhou Yi.

Returning to Dortmund from the away game, Zhou Yi got a day's rest, and in the evening he sat early in front of the TV in the living room, swiping his phone and waiting for the game to start.

Cortana passed behind him and was a little surprised to find that he was actually watching the first league: "You also watched the French game?"

"There's my friend. Zhou Yi briefly introduced the situation.

"Oh, okay. Cortana nodded, walked into her room, and then closed the door, not disturbing Zhou Yi to watch the game.

※※※

In the starting list announced before the start of the game, He Ying did not appear, he sat on the bench.

After the game started, although He Ying did not start, Zhou Yi was still watching the game very seriously, because he wanted to help He Ying analyze the situation after the game. See how you can play on this team faster, and play consistently.

The match was Paris Saint-Germain's away challenge to Bordeaux.

Zhou Yi also went to learn about the previous situation of the two teams. As of the 20th round of the league, Paris Saint-Germain has 11 wins, 6 draws and 3 losses, accumulating 39, ranking second with a two-point disadvantage.

Bordeaux, on the other hand, has seven wins, eleven draws and two losses, ranking fourth with 32 points.

On their home turf, Bordeaux have not played very well, winning only three of their nine home games and drawing six, and although they are the only team in Ligue 1 to remain unbeaten at home, it doesn't really mean that so many draws are unbeaten at home. In those nine home games, they have scored only nine goals and conceded six, an average of only one goal per game, which speaks volumes about their lack of attacking firepower at home. Bordeaux's home performance is 14th out of 20 teams in Ligue 1 and sixth from bottom.

So home is not necessarily Bordeaux's advantage.

If He Ying has the opportunity to play, he can actually take advantage of this to impact Bordeaux's defense.

Regarding this point, Zhou Yi actually communicated directly with He Ying by phone before the game.

For most of the first half, the two sides played in a quiet manner, with neither side having a lot of shots on goal, with Bordeaux slightly above PSG – their home turf after all.

However, while Bordeaux had more shots on goal than PSG, they didn't have a high quality of shots, with only one shot hitting the woodwork.

The edge is weak...... When Zhou Yi saw this, he felt that He Ying should actually go to Bordeaux, maybe he didn't have to sit on the bench in this game, and he could start directly.

On the side of Paris Saint-Germain, He Ying's competitive pressure on the front line is still greater than that in Bordeaux. The two strikers who started were big names, Ibrahimovic and Ravic.

In the 43rd minute, when the first half was about to end, the famous Ibrahimovic seized the opportunity to score and open the scoring for Paris Saint-Germain and break the deadlock.

In both games, the two away teams were mainly against the visitors, and the first goal was scored...... (To be continued.) )
