The Dortmund game was played a day earlier than Bayern Munich. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 So when Borussia Dortmund beat Eintracht Frankfurt at home, reporters asked Pep Guardiola questions at Bayern Munich's pre-match press conference against Freiburg, asking him what he thought of Dortmund's big wins in these two games.

Pep Guardiola rubbed his nose and said: "To be honest, I don't really care about them, I only care about my team. We just need to do our own thing. ”

He said this with confidence, as if he did not take Dortmund seriously.

Of course, his Bayern Munich does have such capital.

In the following games, Bayern Munich also won against Freiburg 4:0, and the score was exactly the same as that of Dortmund.

It's a response to Dortmund's recent aggressive catch-up.

Now in 21 league games, Bayern Munich remain top of the table, four points ahead of Borussia Dortmund, and have a huge advantage on goal difference - they have scored 57 goals but conceded just nine, a whopping 48 goal difference.

Just nine goals conceded made them the best team to defend.

Everyone says offense wins applause, defense wins championships.

From this simple truth, we can know that the team with good defense is generally the champion.

So everyone thinks that if Bayern Munich can't win the league championship, it will definitely make many people doubt the ...... of life

Borussia Dortmund, on the other hand, have conceded 23 goals so far this season.

This is the most goals they have conceded in the last four seasons in the same period.

Last season, they conceded nineteen goals in twenty-one rounds.

In the 2011-2012 season, they conceded just fourteen goals in 21 rounds.

In the 2010-2011 season, they conceded only 14 goals in 21 rounds.

Obviously, Borussia Dortmund's defence is as good as it used to be, and that has a lot to do with their crippled backline.

In terms of goal difference, Dortmund is 37, 11 goals short of Bayern Munich's 48.

So why should Borussia chase Bayern Munich for the title?

Their performances this season have not been without merit. At least so far, they are the top scorers in the Bundesliga, with 60 goals scored in 21 league games.

This is also the most goals scored in the same period of the last four seasons.

In the previous three seasons, in the 21st round, they scored 53, 50 and 44 goals respectively.

Despite their ups and downs this season, Dortmund have been very efficient in attack. After Lewandowski and Gotze left, Dortmund's offensive performance did not decline, which is naturally inseparable from Zhou Yi's excellent performance.

After the game against Eintracht Frankfurt, there is still a league game and then the Champions League knockout round.

Because of this, the next 22nd round of the league is very delicate.

Because Dortmund's first match in the knockout round of the Champions League was played away from home, and it was also in the remote and cold St. Petersburg - Dortmund's opponent in the quarter-finals of the Champions League was Zenit St. Petersburg.

Out of a total of sixteen teams, Zenit St. Petersburg can be considered "one", if not the worst.

Probably weaker than them is the Greek Olympiacos.

However, this does not mean that Dortmund are lucky to draw a good draw.

This takes into account the weather in St. Petersburg and the time of the eighths of the finals.

On February 25, it was still very cold in St. Petersburg at high latitudes, with heavy snowfall.

Borussia Dortmund, on the other hand, had just been hit by a snowstorm in Istanbul, which caused the game to be interrupted, postponed by a day, and almost overturned and unable to qualify from the group.

So the Dortmund side became very sensitive to the weather.

Everyone is paying attention to the weather in St. Petersburg, according to the weather forecast, it will be cloudy in St. Petersburg these days, but no one knows what it will be like in a week.

The weather is always changing.

They can only pray, pray that there will not be another snowstorm in Istanbul.

At the same time, because of the expedition to St. Petersburg, it will inevitably affect Dortmund's plans in the league.

In the 22nd round of the league, Dortmund is also away, and their opponent is Hamburg.

Hamburg have had a terrible season, playing 21 league games and accumulating only 16 points, finishing 17th and second from bottom. It's the rhythm of de-escalation.

So with almost half of the league remaining, Hamburg is already in a state of relegation.

They have to fight one game at a time, point by point, and only in this way can they ensure the success of relegation.

This game is their home stadium again, and Dortmund is not easy to play.

If Borussia Dortmund have reservations in the league in order to prepare for the Champions League, there is a good chance that they will lose to Hamburg.

Once they lose to Hamburg, the battle for the league title with Bayern Munich is really a fool's dream - Bayern Munich will challenge Hannover 96 away from home, although it is an away game, but with the difference in strength between the two teams, it is not difficult for Bayern Munich to win away.

At that time, the difference between the two teams was stretched to seven points, and with Bayern Munich's consistent performance this season, it is really difficult to surpass.

But what if you push too hard in this league and the team doesn't perform well away at Zenit St. Petersburg?

The defending Champions League champion, Dortmund club may not have thought about it, but the defending champion was eliminated in the first round of the knockout round, not only about face, but also about income.

For many teams, Champions League appearance fees and bonuses are an important source of income.

Although Dortmund is a big club, it will not say that it looks down on the appearance fees and bonuses of the Champions League......

Of course, they want to go far in the Champions League.

In the end, of course, this dilemma will be decided by manager Jurgen Klopp.

Jurgen Klopp didn't hesitate and decided to play as much as he could in the league.

The reason is actually very simple - the Champions League is behind, the league is ahead, it is unknown what the Champions League will be like, and it is not certain whether the league will have an impact on the Champions League.

It would be foolish to sacrifice the present for the sake of an uncertain future.

So Jurgen Klopp doesn't intend to let the team suffer losses in the league because of an uncertain future. First of all, of course, to win the league, and then to think about the Champions League.

If you give up the league and don't win the Champions League, wouldn't it be a bamboo basketball?

Ahead of the game against Hamburg, Borussia Dortmund announced their 18-man squad, and the main players were all there.

Jurgen Klopp also appeared cautious against Hamburg, saying in his pre-match press conference: "I don't care about the Champions League game right now, our opponent is Hamburg, so I'm only focusing on the league opponents. ”

Hamburg recently suffered a seven-game losing streak and their morale has hit rock bottom. But they changed their manager, with the former Dutch coach Van Marwijk sacking and Slomka taking over.

Hamburg is looking for a firefighting manager, not just for a firefighter. They have offered Slomka a long-term contract until the end of June 2016, which is valid even if the team is relegated to the second division this season.

At the same time, they naturally value his successful experience in leading the team to relegation - in the second half of the 2009-2010 season, Slomka took over Hannover 96 and miraculously completed the relegation task in the final round.

The Hamburg management apparently wanted Slomka to give Hamburg the same miracle.

There is a saying in football that "a change of coach is like a change of knife", and there are many examples of teams that have fundamentally improved their performance after changing their head coach.

Whether it's superstition or the change brought about by the freshness of a new manager......

This phenomenon is real.

Jurgen Klopp is certainly worried that his team will fall victim to Hamburg's knife change.

Dortmund have recently won two league games in a row, and the team's morale is high. Jurgen Klopp has to worry about the team being too excited, and even a little proud and underestimating.

Hamburg, who are in the bottom two places, do not seem to be worthy of being taken seriously by Borussia Dortmund in the positive second place......

Moreover, Hamburg also suffered from a large number of injuries before this game - Boe and Dickmeier were absent due to illness, and Ilicevic and Van der Vaart were sidelined due to injury.

Klopp's fears are not unfounded.

Just three minutes into the game, Hamburg's Ilasek won the ball on the left side of the Dortmund penalty area before turning and shooting, but the ball was just slightly wide.

It was the first shot on goal from both sides, and it was Hamburg who fired the header.

Then Dortmund took the initiative, but Hamburg's defense has been solid, and Dortmund has never had many good chances.

"It seems that the change of manager has really made Hamburg feel new, and against Borussia Dortmund, Hamburg will not be left behind!"

Klopp in the dugout looked serious.
