Dortmund scored the fourth goal, and at the same time, the news that Mainz was sent off a defender was soon spread to Bayern Munich.

Someone on the bench sighed.

Mainz has worked very hard, scoring two goals at Dortmund at home, trailing twice and equalizing the score twice.

But Dortmund still won a two-goal lead with his strong strength...

With little game time left, a two-goal lead basically means that Dortmund has won the game and won the three-pointer.

※※※

After Dortmund led 4:2, Klopp began to prepare for substitutions.

From the 80th minute, he gradually replaced people.

The first one to be replaced was Zhou Yi. As the core of the team, he needs to rest more time. Since the victory has been decided, of course, Zhou Yi must hurry up and rest.

The one who replaced him was Mkhitaryan.

One minute later, Dortmund made another substitution, and Reus was substituted and replaced by midfielder Joditch.

In the 84th minute, Klopp used the last substitution and replaced Aubameyang with Mark Wagner.

Mainz, who is one less, cannot threaten Dortmund's goal at all. Even if Dortmund makes such a large substitution, Dortmund still has the advantage in the field.

In the 86th minute of the game, Bayern Munich's starting goalkeeper Lucas Red, who replaced the injured Neuer in this game, kicked the ball into the frontcourt with a big foot in the backcourt and passed it to Robben who was inserted at high speed. After Robben received the ball, he forced a breakthrough by speed, forming a single-shot force, and then sent the ball into Brunswick's goal.

Bayern Munich led Brunswick 2-0 away, but they were still one point behind Dortmund.

In the face of Dortmund's victory, Bayern Munich's victory seemed a bit boring...

※※※

The last two games were over, with Dortmund defeating Mainz 4-2 at home, while Bayern Munich defeating Brunswick 2-0 away.

Neither the ranking nor the difference between the two sides has changed.

There are three rounds left in the league, and Bayern Munich, who is one point behind, still has hope of overtaking, but to be honest, their fate is no longer in their hands...

Even if they win all three rounds of the league, it still depends on Dortmund's face. If Dortmund wins all of them, nothing can be changed.

After playing the league, both teams are about to start preparing for the Champions League semi-finals.

This is the match between the Bundesliga two-man vs. the La Liga two-man.

They still have the chance to repeat the scene of last season's finals.

If that's the case, everyone might shout: "I've watched this plot!"

After playing against Mainz, Klopp did not allow the players to rest.

The next day, everyone came to Brakel training base for training normally. After the training, Zhou Yi was called to the head coach's office by Klopp.

"Did you watch the game at home that night after our last Champions League?" he asked straight to the point.

Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Klopp would ask about what happened ten days ago as soon as he opened his mouth. After thinking about it, he nodded and gave Klopp a positive answer.

“Which game did you watch?”

"Atlético Madrid and Barcelona." Zhou Yi replied.

"Well..." Klopp was quite satisfied with Zhou Yi's performance. He took the initiative to observe the team's semi-final opponents. Ordinary players would not do this. After the game and training, they would let themselves go and they didn't want to be involved in football. After all, training games all day long, no matter how much love you for football, you have to have time to do something else.

"How do you feel?" Klopp asked with his hands on his chest.

Zhou Yi first lowered his head and recalled it. After all, it was ten days ago. He experienced the match between Bayern Munich and Mainz. He needed to recall some details carefully.

"Atlético Madrid's pressing and fast counterattack after pressing is very powerful... Especially in the first twenty minutes of the game, it is very fierce... I think Barcelona was stunned by those twenty minutes of pressing, and the whole team did not find the rhythm and state. Their defense was also very good, and the counterattack based on this was also very sharp... Although the score was 1:0, I think Atlético Madrid's advantage was much greater than that shown in this score... I think Atlético Madrid should be considered as playing their best game this season..."

When Zhou Yi started talking, his tone was a little hesitant, but the more he spoke, the smoother he felt, and the more he remembered, he became clearer and clearer.

He said, Klopp nodded, and Zhou Yi's feelings were similar to his.

After Zhou Yi finished speaking, he asked again: "Do you think they can still be in such a state when we meet them?"

Zhou Yi thought for a while: "I don't know, but they should use a tactic similar to this game."

Klopp was very satisfied with Zhou Yi's answer, and he joked: "Yes, especially since there is a midfield core in our team who is similar to Harvey."

After saying that, he opened the drawer of his desk, took out a USB flash drive from it, and handed it to Zhou Yi.

"This is a game video edited by the coaching staff. Take it back and take it carefully. It mainly depends on how Atletico Madrid curbs Barcelona's offense. There are some simple statistics on the game by the coaching staff, which can help you understand the game."

Zhou Yi took over USB flash drive.

When Klopp saw him take over USB flash drive, he smiled and said, "You know I like gambling. Some people outside call me a 'gambler'. I do like that kind of excitement. So since the reform of the Champions League, no team has been able to defend the title successfully, and I plan to bet this time."

Zhou Yi held the USB flash drive in his palm and said to Klopp: "I thought you were going to give up again."

Klopp laughed: "What are you giving up? We are now leading Bayern Munich in the league and reaching the semi-finals of the Champions League. Give up at this time? I am not a fool, so how can I give up the fat meat that comes to my mouth?"

After listening to Klopp's answer, Zhou Yi also laughed.

When Zhou Yi returned home, he turned on the TV in the living room, then plugged in the USB flash drive given by Klopp, and couldn't wait to watch it.

Cortana asked curiously when he saw him, "What are you looking at?"

"We have a semi-final opponent's game video, the coach gave me today."

Cortana suddenly realized that he would no longer disturb Zhou Yi, so that he could concentrate on watching the game video.

This is not a complete full-time video, but a edited highlight, but it is still very long, much longer than the competition highlights released on those websites.

In addition to the game scene, there are also some "special effects" added by the Dortmund coaching staff, such as circleting out key players and marking their running routes, so that people who watch the video can understand the tactics of both sides more intuitively.

By watching the game video, Zhou Yi’s memory of this game became clearer in his mind.

At the beginning of the game, the attack line composed of Villa, Adrian and Raul Garcia, formed by Atletico Madrid, violently hit Barcelona's defense line from the beginning. Moreover, they consciously adopted high-ball impact play against Barcelona's weakness of low defense ability. This is exactly the reason why Barcelona feels busy.

Atletico Madrid scored a goal in just five minutes of the game. This goal was the opportunity to come out when the bombing was high. At that time, Villa made a cross from the left, Adrian headed the ball and Coke followed up and shot with his left foot to score.

Given to Barcelona the fastest goal in history in knockout stage...

After Atletico Madrid took the lead, it continued to attack Barcelona's defense line.

Barcelona was forced to a loss and performed poorly.

After three tricks at the beginning, Atletico Madrid showed its tenacious defensive ability and waited for an opportunity to counterattack, creating many absolute good opportunities.

If Barcelona's goalkeeper Pinto had not performed well in this game, the score would have been more than 1:0.

In addition, the penalty for the British referee Weber in this game is also controversial. He missed Mascherano's foul in the penalty area twice in the game, without any indication. If these two penalty kicks were awarded, the game might end sooner.

Until the last minute of the game, Atletico Madrid still had a chance to score - Raul Garcia passed the ball and Rodriguez shot alone, but was blocked by the outstanding Pinto.

As Zhou Yi said to Klopp, this is not a game where Atletico Madrid started with a slutty start, stole a ball, and then drove a bus to defend until the end of the game. Instead, Atletico Madrid took the initiative from the beginning and completely suppressed Barcelona, ​​but because Barcelona goalkeeper Pinto performed well, he only won one game.

Atletico Madrid's crazy pressing almost failed Barcelona's midfield operation.
