May 2, Bundesliga 31st round.

VfL Wolfsburg hosts Hannover 96, Lower Saxony derby.

After a midweek break and playing only 20 minutes last weekend, Ye Yifeng and De Bruyne recovered a little and their physical condition improved.

Hannover 96 did not declare relegation success in the league, so there is no need to say much about the fighting spirit.

Once the game began, Wolfsburg had the home advantage and launched a quick attack.

In the face of Hannover 96's dense defence, they insisted on a two-pronged style of play with crosses and long-range shots.

In the 29th minute of the game, Ricardo Rodriguez's cross from outside the box caused chaos in the box, Hannover 96 made a mistake in clearance, and Perisic seized the opportunity to shoot the ball into the bottom left corner of the goal in the box.

VfL Wolfsburg lead Hannover 1-0 at home 96.

Under the active instigation of Ye Yifeng and De Bruyne, Wolfsburg continued to have opportunities, but the quality of shots fluctuated.

In the second half of the game, Hannover 96 began to brew a counterattack and gradually increase the offensive firepower.

Wolfsburg's attacking chances are increasing.

In the 63rd minute of the game, Ye Yifeng knocked the ball back to De Bruyne in the left side of the penalty area, and after the ball, he quickly turned forward to get rid of the defense, and De Bruyne's pick and pass to the left rib of the penalty area.

Ye Yifeng hit the ball with a volley from a small angle in the face of the falling football, and the ball bounced to the ground in front of the far corner of the goal and flew into the goal against the inside of the right post!

The Volkswagen Arena erupted in deafening cheers!

Ye Yifeng's 30th goal in the league was born!

This is also the single-season league goal record in the history of the Wolfsburg team, and the goal record in all competitions throughout the season is also held by Ye Yifeng!

Wolfsburg 2:0 Hannover 96.

Seeing that his team was leading by two goals, Dieter Black Gold chose to make a substitution in the 70th minute of the game, removing Ye Yifeng and De Bruyne.

The first leg of the Europa League semi-finals will kick off in three days' time.

Sitting on the bench, Ye Yifeng and De Bruyne were originally in a relaxed state of mind.

But the final 15 minutes of the game changed dramatically.

Hannover 96 were aggressive, and it seemed that regardless of the derby factor or the motivation brought by the pressure of relegation, they not only did not give up the game, but even burst out with the strongest energy on the field so far this season.

Wolfsburg was bombarded by the opponent in the last 10 minutes and conceded two goals in a row!

The Wolfsburg fans in the stands at the Volkswagen Arena were stunned.

Ye Yifeng and De Bruyne also looked solemn.

This 2:0 becomes 2:2.

There have been a number of last-minute kills or points to draw on a number of occasions this season.

Now they themselves are victims.

In the context of not having much margin for error in the championship, the complexity of the mood can be imagined.

Dieter-Black Gold is also repentant.

If Ye Yifeng and De Bruyne had not been removed, then they would definitely have won this game.

At this time, the players returned to the dressing room in a rather depressed mood, and the defensive line was exhausted and conceded the goal.

Maranda.

If he's there, it's definitely a great addition to the team's midfield defence.

Two hours later, they had good news.

Bayern Munich were beaten away from home by Bayer Leverkusen!

Pep Guardiola's team is eager to win, and under the pressure of the upcoming European semi-finals, the league has also dropped points, and it is not a point!

Wolfsburg was lucky to extend the lead instead!

4 points!

The Champions League starts in midweek ahead of the Europa League.

Bayern Munich Labor Expedition was defeated 3-0 by Barcelona at Camp Nou!

German media released bad news: Bayern Munich lost everything in 8 days!

The semi-finals of the German Cup were eliminated in midweek last week!

Lost away from home in the league and lost the championship!

The first leg of the Champions League semi-finals was lost by three goals, and the Champions League was defeated!

VfL Wolfsburg expedition to Dnipro, the fourth largest city in Ukraine in Eastern Europe.

Dnipro are the least favourites in the Europa League semi-finals, with the other two semi-finals between Fiorentina and Sevilla being played apart from VfL Wolfsburg.

Shakhtar Donetsk is a Ukrainian giant, and Dnipro has played the role of a Ukrainian powerhouse for a long time.

This season they originally got a ticket to the Champions League qualifiers, but like Napoli, they failed to reach the Champions League and were swept down to the Europa League.

The group stage was stumbling, and it was only after a home win over Saint-Etienne in the final round that it was thrilling to advance.

However, after entering the knockout round, Dnipro's performance has been on the rise.

Eliminated Olympiacos with one win and one loss.

They won one and lost one of the two legs against Ajax, but eliminated the Eredivisie giants in extra-time in the second leg.

In the quarterfinals, 180 minutes later, he defeated the Belgian giants Club Brugge by one goal to advance to the semi-finals.

Although it is much inferior to Wolfsburg's strong performance in the knockout round, since it has reached the semi-finals, the difference between strength and weakness does not seem to be the point, and the on-the-spot performance is the key to life and death.

Dnipro's home atmosphere is frenetic!

Over 60,000 attendees!

It was the largest crowd in Wolfsburg's knockout round.

Their home stadium can only accommodate 30,000 people, and the attendance at both the Meazza and São Paulo stadiums is a bit miserable.

Dnipro fans naturally want to see the team win at home and get the head start.

As a result, a fiery atmosphere was created at the scene.

At European level, both teams are fringe players, and most of the time even if they can make their debuts, it is a trick.

Now he is becoming the protagonist of this stage!

Dnipro started at home with 451.

Goalkeeper: Boyko.

Defenders: Fedetsky, Chebeashiko, Douglas, Matos.

Midfielders: Rotan, Kankava, Konopyanka, Fedochuk, Matthews.

Forward: Kalinic.

The team's outstanding European record is largely due to the performance of two players, the "Ukrainian Messi" Konopyanka and the Croatian genius Kalinic.

Although they are not at the level of attention of the giants, many of the traditional powerhouses in Europe's top leagues are ready to take them from Ukraine to the mainstream stage of Europe in the summer.

VfL Wolfsburg attacked away from home, and Dieter Black Gold was still cautious.

In the two-legged game, Wolfsburg is the first away and then the home, which from Germany to Ukraine The impact of the journey on the state cannot be ignored, the first leg is guaranteed not to lose, and the second leg is back at home and then do their best to fight!

Wolfsburg started 4312.

Goalkeeper: Benaglio.

Defenders: Jung, Nardó, Knoch, Ricardo Rodriguez.

Midfielders: Alexander-Arnold, Gustavo, De Bruyne, Gilavogui.

Forwards: Dost, Ye Yifeng.

Although Wolfsburg also relied on core players to overcome difficulties, they clearly surpassed Konopyanka and Kalinic in the player position.

Ye Yifeng, who scored 18 goals in the Europa League and surpassed the second place in the scorer list by 10 goals, has locked the top scorer in advance!

11 assists kicked out of the Europa League, and De Bruyne also locked up the assist king!

The twin stars of Wolfsburg have gone from Germany to the Europa League, and the top scorer and assist king have been in the dark, and the blood is flowing!

After the start of the game, Wolfsburg played a counter-attack, but Dnipro played a defensive counter-attack at home.

In attack, only Konopyanka and Kalinic were the only ones who made waves in the key areas of Wolfsburg's defense.

Wolfsburg did not make a mess with more precautions and less trouble.

Dnipro is also in the backfield to limit Ye Yifeng and Dost with more defense and less control.

Ye Yifeng, who had just recovered from his form in the league last weekend, and his teammates came to Ukraine and their form dropped significantly.

Having played 31 league games, 12 Europa League games, and five German Cup games, Wolfsburg's long season has come to the final stage of the season, and it is definitely not a two-day sleep and a week's rest to relieve the players' physical fatigue.

Not to mention interspersed with national team events!

At this stage, the disadvantages of being a guest are more significant.

Wolfsburg don't insist on an away win.

They will be confident of beating Dnipro at home, and their disadvantage will be reflected in Dnipro today.

Dnipro didn't dare to give Wolfsburg a chance to counterattack quickly at home, the strongest chance creator De Bruyne, and the strongest killer Ye Yifeng were on the opposite side, how dare they?

They have been in a tight pitch all the way through the knockout rounds, with their opponents clamoring for victory or advancing on away goals.

It doesn't necessarily mean that you really have the capital to go all out and swallow your opponent in one bite.

The two teams played to a goalless draw in the first half.

Ye Yifeng shot a few long shots, and he couldn't cooperate with his teammates in the penalty area.

Other than that, there wasn't much glitter either.

The situation in the second half was similar to the first, with Wolfsburg and Dnipro fighting in the midfield area for the most part, exchanging attacks and defences frequently in a small area, and the attacking style was quite simple.

Even if Ye Yifeng got rid of the breakthrough and lost one person, he soon fell into the situation of being surrounded and suppressed.

VfL Wolfsburg kept Dnipro's core players at bay, with Konopyanka and Kalinic combined for just three shots on goal, one of which hit the back of the net.

Wolfsburg's stats are better, with a total of 9 shots on goal, Ye Yifeng has 7 shots, Dost has 1 and De Bruyne has 1.

Ye Yifeng opened and hung up, and Juninho Jr. failed to create a surprise.

Then, the game ended.

90 minutes, 0:0.

Dieter Blackgold shook hands with opposing coach Myron Malkovic after the game, and both men had smiles on their faces, as if this first leg was the most important thing to do.

Salute first, then soldier.

A week later in the Volkswagen Arena, we will meet each other!

In the other semi-final, Sevilla beat Fiorentina 3-0 at home, essentially securing a ticket to the final!
