Chapter 64 Double Derby Strikes
The next day, the team further reduced the intensity of training. They just practiced casually like a warm-up in the morning and then let the players go back to rest.
The 29th round of the league also kicked off.
Dortmund defeated Wolfsburg 3-1 with Shinji Kagawa's opening goal and Lewandowski's brace, ending their opponent's 4-game winning streak and extending their unbeaten streak to 23 games.
Ranked first in the Bundesliga with 63 points.
It is worth mentioning that in addition to scoring the team's first goal, Shinji Kagawa also assisted the team's second goal. Not only did he tie Yang Feng, who had already scored 12 goals, in the number of goals
, and ranked third in the assists list with 7 assists, making everyone once again admire the strength of Asian players.
In another highlight game, Gomez scored in the first 24 seconds, setting the record for the fastest goal in the Bundesliga this season. Bayern Munich also relied on his brace to defeat Augsburg and temporarily ranked third with 60 points.
Bit.
Schalke 04's game starts the next day, and their opponent is Hannover 96.
Both teams have just finished the Europa League, but their fates are completely different.
Schalke 04 relied on Yang Feng's performance of five goals and one assist in two rounds to eliminate Athletic Bilbao and advance to the semi-finals; Hannover 96 lost to Atletico Madrid with a total score of 2-4 and missed the next round.
.
In the Schalke 04 team, Matip was suspended for accumulating 5 yellow cards, and Jones was also unable to play because of accumulating 10 yellow cards. Raul, Yang Feng, and Obasi, who started the last game, all sat on the bench, but in Spain
Huntelaar, who also started the game, was included in the eleven.
If the game against Athletic Bilbao was an exhibition match for Yang Feng, then this league match with Hannover was a personal show for Farfan.
Less than 6 minutes into the game, Farfan passed a free kick from the right. Huntelaar jumped up from 8 meters away and headed towards the goal. The ball hit the inside of the far post and bounced into the goal, 1-0.
Less than 2 minutes into the second half, Farfan passed the ball to the right side of the penalty area. Draxler took the ball to the right side of the small penalty area. Facing Ziller, he calmly pulled the ball with his left foot to get into the space, and then with his right foot from a small angle
Pushed into the goal, 2-0.
In the 63rd minute, Atsuhito Uchida passed the ball straight from the right of the midfielder. Farfan threw away Schultz at high speed and went straight to the right side of the penalty area. Facing Ziller's selfless knock, Huntelaar easily pushed into the empty goal and made it 3-3.
0.
Farfan scored a hat-trick of assists and Huntelaar scored twice. The game entered garbage time early. Stevens simply did not send Yang Feng and Raul to play, only Holtby and Obasi.
Cope with it.
After this battle, the rankings of the top three remain unchanged. Dortmund and Schalke 04 share 63 points, ranking first and second. Bayern still clings to the top two with 60 points.
All this is temporary and the watershed will come soon.
First, both Bayern and Schalke 04 still have European war missions, and they may fall apart at any time in a two-front battle.
Second, Bayern and Dortmund will face each other in the next 30th round of the league, and the close encounter between Dortmund and Schalke 04 will also take place in the 31st round of the league. The results of these two games can determine the championship this season.
On the other side, the Europa League semi-final draw results are freshly released.
The Spanish media criticized the result, because Valencia was drawn against Atletico Madrid, and a civil war was about to break out in La Liga. Fans of Sand Mine were overjoyed, because Valencia and Atletico Madrid are undoubtedly tough, and Lisbon is easier to bully in comparison.
Some.
The good news for Schalke 04 is that the game will not start until April 20. They still have five days to repair after finishing the league, so don't rush like the previous times.
After the Europa League draw, the 30th round of the Bundesliga will proceed as scheduled.
The eyes of almost all Germans are focused on Dortmund's Signal Iduna Park Stadium.
Not only because this game is the first in the league against the third in the league, but also because the two sides are Bayern Munich and Dortmund.
After the game started, Dortmund controlled the rhythm of the game with their skilled passing and running coordination. Bayern fell into a passive position for a while, but still made several sharp counterattacks with its luxurious wingers. Unfortunately, both sides failed to score many shots.
Until the 77th minute of the game, Dortmund passed a tactical corner kick to the goal. Cross made a header and the football fell to the top of the penalty area.
Grosskreutz stepped in to meet the ball and hit it, and Lewandowski rubbed his left heel with his back to the goal in the small penalty area.
The forward path of football changed. Neuer could only watch the ball go into the net, and the score was changed to 1-0.
Bayern was forced to press heavily at the last minute.
In the 85th minute, Ribery received the ball from the left corner of the penalty area and passed it through. Robben quickly moved forward to receive the ball and was tackled by Weidenfeller to win a penalty kick. However, Robben's penalty kick was saved by Weidenfeller.
live.
In stoppage time, Subotic's header from 7 meters away hit the crossbar of his own goal and bounced back into the field. Robben's left-footed follow-up shot from 4 meters away soared into the sky!
Then Dortmund quickly counterattacked, Lewandowski inserted into the right side of the penalty area and shot past the attacking Neuer, but the ball also hit the crossbar and bounced back into the field.
This scene can hardly be reminded of Yang Feng, who just scored a goal in this way in the Europa League. Therefore, the topic of who has better shooting skills, Lewandowski or Yang Feng, has also begun to be discussed by the media.
It's on the agenda.
Bayern failed to complete the important task of sniping Dortmund. The Hornets scored 66 points and continued to top the list.
The pressure is on Schalke 04's side.
Schalke 04's opponent Nuremberg is ranked in the middle of the league. With only five rounds left in the league, it has basically missed the European war next season and is unlikely to fall into the relegation zone. It is in a state of having no desires and desires, so this game is not
It was probably a tough battle, but Stevens still paid enough attention to it and sent out a frontcourt trident.
After the opening, Schalke took the initiative, but was unable to open up the situation. On the contrary, as the game progressed, Nuremberg gradually reversed the situation.
In the 25th minute, Didavi's free kick from the left midfielder was dropped into the penalty area. The unguarded Balic headed the ball from 6 meters away. The ball bounced off the ground and flew into the upper right corner of the goal, 1-0.
Immediately afterwards, Peckhardt was tripped by Matip when he was about to break into the penalty area. Franz rushed to the goal, and Papadopoulos also kicked him from behind.
The referee pointed to the penalty spot without hesitation, and Simmons scored the goal, 2-0.
It's not over yet. Before the end of the first half, Chandler received a pass from Mark from the right, and Didavi ran from 5 meters away and scored with a header, 3-0...
During halftime, there was silence in the locker room.
Although opponents have scored first goals many times this season, falling behind by three goals at halftime was something no one expected.
This is not just a question of whether the forward is wearing shooting boots, but the collective hip stretch of the entire team.
For the first time, Yang Feng felt this powerless, as if he was being controlled by fate and could not escape no matter how hard he tried.
Blow up, Blow up, that’s why it’s called Blast, of course it requires accumulation, it’s destined to happen in bursts, how can anyone spray everywhere from beginning to end...
In the second half of the game, Schalke 04's top three forwards who ranked among the top ten scorers continued to be lost. They only saved some face with Holtby's goal, and then returned to Gerkisson with a score of 1-3 in despair.
prosper.
After this battle, Schalke 04 is still ranked second, but this time it is no longer just because of goal difference, but 3 points less than Dortmund.
Of course, they don't have no chance to change their lives.
Three days later, in the 31st round of the league, Schalke 04 faced Dortmund at home.
It is a Ruhr derby and an Asian derby.
Unlike the last time when Schalke vs. Hamburg, only China and South Korea were enjoying themselves, this time the Asian Derby was stamped and certified by many well-known German media.
