Chapter Ninety-Four: Still Has Some Influence

Only six minutes into the game, Schalke 04 organized an attack to the front of the Dortmund penalty area, Draxler, who broke through with the ball, was knocked to the ground by Sven Bendela, referee Kirshire awarded Schalke 04 a free kick, and also verbally warned Sven Bender. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The referee of the Ruhr derby is very difficult to be, and any decision you make, no matter how fair, will be booed.

Like now, he just verbally warned Sven Bender, but didn't play a card against Sven Bender, and was booed by the Schalke 04 fans......

But if he does get a yellow card, he could be booed, maybe by the Borussia Dortmund fans, maybe by the Schalke 04 fans who thought Sven Bender should be shown a red card and sent him off......

Schalke 04 won a free-kick from 34 yards from goal, slightly to the right.

Boateng ran for the free-kick.

The home fans got excited and cheered for Boateng with rhythmic applause.

Boateng has made five league appearances since moving to Schalke 04 before the summer transfer window closed, scoring three goals.

Such a good performance made Schalke 04 fans have high hopes for him. Hopefully he can play well at Schalke 04 and help Schalke 04 rise again.

Boateng himself is also full of confidence, after joining Schalke 04, all kinds of self-confidence. He said he came here for the title, and he believes that Schalke 04 is an ambitious team that will definitely make a difference in the league and the Champions League.

The free kick he took out hit the wall and refracted it, which made the fans of Schalke 04 even more excited!

The scene has already resounded with can't wait to cheer.

But this refraction is not particularly exaggerated, so the backward football is still held by the agile Dortmund goalkeeper Weidenfeller.

'Weidenfeller!' he made a good save and Boateng's free-kick didn't go in, but maybe it was a good sign...... The two sides will definitely give us a wonderful game!" Duan Xin said fairly and objectively.

He is truly fair and objective. Because there were Chinese players in both games, and both of them were the main players of their respective teams. So whether Schalke 04 wins or Dortmund wins, Duan Xin can see it as a victory for Chinese players.

In the sixth minute, Boateng's free-kick changed direction and threatened the Borussia Dortmund goal.

And three minutes later, Dortmund also returned the color.

In the ninth minute, Reuss fired a powerful left-footed volley from 22 meters in front of the goal, which was picked up by Hildebrand.

However, what everyone is most concerned about is actually Zhou Yi's performance.

Not only Chinese fans, but also German viewers are very concerned.

Everyone wants to see what performance Zhou Yi, who has returned to the court after more than a month of injury, can perform.

After the start of the game, Zhou Yi took the ball a lot of times, but he chose to be more conservative in his passing options, and did not hold the ball for a long time after taking the ball to attract the opponent's defenders, and then divide the football.

Judging from these ten minutes of play, he was more in the midfield, but not directly organized.

Marcel Leif said: "After all, it was the first game in more than a month, and Zhou Yi may still need to find a feeling......

Duan Xin tried hard to find the highlights of Zhou Yi's performance in this ten-minute game: "Zhou Yi quickly passed the football out, and he was able to pass it accurately, which shows that Zhou Yi's control of the situation on the court is still as good and stable as ever......"

As for Zhou Yi not passing the ball forward, he kept his mouth shut.

Jens Keller is also paying close attention to Zhou Yi's performance, through the observation of the ten minutes of the game, he believes that his judgment is correct, Zhou Yi's physical condition has indeed not yet reached the requirements of being able to play, and the reason why Klopp let him start is either due to pressure from the top or just wants to gamble.

There is a good chance of taking a gamble, after all, Klopp is a gambler......

But that's good news.

Keller put a snack down slightly.

※※※

Klopp was also watching Zhou Yi's performance, and he was not surprised or surprised for ten minutes.

Any player who has just returned to the pitch for the first time after a long injury is likely to behave like this.

Both physically and mentally need to get used to the rhythm.

In Klopp's view, Zhou Yi is slowly finding his rhythm.

He didn't expect Zhou Yi to play well as soon as he came up, although he knew that Zhou Yi would always surprise him, he was still a bit conservative.

And judging from Zhou Yi's passes, he took a month off and only practiced for two weeks, but Zhou Yi and his teammates did not feel unfamiliar, and his passing was still very fast and accurate.

That's enough.

Zhou Yi's precise passing on the pitch not only satisfied Klopp, but also surprised others.

Of course, they didn't know that although Zhou Yi was injured, he hadn't given up training for a day for more than a month, just training in the virtual world. But that also helps him stay in shape.

※※※

Yang Muge was not responsible for defending Zhou Yi in this game - it was not that Keller thought that Zhou Yi did not need a special person to mark, but Keller did not consider the possibility that Zhou Yi would play, so he did not arrange the task of defending Zhou Yi for Yang Muge.

As a result, who would have thought that Dortmund would let Zhou Yi start!

Completely caught Keller off guard.

In the temporary adjustment, Keller asked Yang Muge's midfield partner in this game Neustadt to defend Zhou Yi.

In Keller's opinion, Neustadt has a strong enough body to deal with Zhou Yi, who has just recovered from injury, and uses the crushing of his body to cause huge psychological pressure on Zhou Yi, forcing him to not play at his true level.

Yang Muge, because his body is not very strong, his visual impact is not strong, and he has excellent running ability, he was given the task of sweeping in the midfield by Keller - he is not limited to marking a certain person, but appears wherever he is needed. This arrangement is actually quite in line with Yang Muge's characteristics, Yang Muge, who has such an excellent running ability, if it is only used to restrict one person, it is indeed a bit wasteful......

However, Yang Muge looked at the tall figure of his teammates, with a height of one meter and ninety meters, and a weight of eighty-three kilograms, next to Zhou Yi, and the physical advantage felt really obvious.

But Yang Muge knew that Zhou Yi was not the kind of person who could be overwhelmed by a simple physical confrontation. On the contrary, with such a tall height and such a heavy weight, will Neustadt's height and weight become a shackle that makes him less flexible when defending Zhou Yi?

Neustadt moved to Schalke 04 on a free transfer from Borussia Mönchengladbach last summer. In the 2011-2012 season, Borussia Mönchengladbach performed well, finishing fourth in the league under Swiss Favre and qualifying for the Champions League play-offs. Contributing to the team in attack was Reuss, who joined Borussia Dortmund last summer.

In terms of midfield defense, it was the tough iron gate formed by Neustadt and Norwegian iron Nordved that helped Borussia Mönchengladbach to defend solidly and achieve excellent results.

At the end of that season, when his contract expired, he attracted the attention of many giants, and finally he chose to join Schalke 04.

Last season he partnered with Yang Muge at Schalke 04 and became the main midfielder, making 31 appearances in one season and scoring three goals.

However, let him mark Zhou Yi in the game, this is the first time for him.

Neustadt didn't think there was anything bad about this arrangement, he was full of confidence and wanted Zhou Yi to see how powerful he was.

Ten minutes into the game, he had not once suppressed Zhou Yi head-on. But he was not in a hurry, on the contrary, he was quite proud, happy for his successful defense of Zhou Yi - wasn't it, under his defense, Zhou Yi couldn't send shells forward and organize an attack. After getting the ball, he didn't dare to control the ball too much, and quickly passed the ball out. This is clearly avoiding yourself!

It's not the first time Neustadt has participated in the Ruhr derby, and it's not the first time he's played against Zhou Yi, and he knows very well what Zhou Yi can do if he is in a normal state.

Today's Zhou Yi is obviously different from the normal Zhou Yi.

It seems that the injury did affect him, but at the same time, Neustadt believes that his own defense must also be a big reason why Zhou Yi is not playing properly......
