King of the Zone

Because Cheng Hai is so outstanding and famous, many people underestimated the strength of other Dortmund players, thinking that Dortmund is a team supported by Cheng Hai alone.

But in fact, even without Cheng Hai, Dortmund is still a strong team capable of competing for the championship on all fronts.

This game proved it.

If Dortmund really has nothing to say except Cheng Haihai, then Dortmund should play more difficult when Cheng Hai does not start, the opponent is a traditional Bundesliga team like Stuttgart, and it is an away game.

However, the game turned out to be one-sided as Dortmund easily took a 2-0 lead in the first half with goals from Mario Gotze and Lewandowski each.

In the 63rd minute of the second half, Stuttgart finally pulled back a goal, but in less than 10 minutes, in the 71st minute, Lewandowski received a wonderful pass from Gundogan and scored twice in the penalty area, scoring twice and helping Dortmund expand its lead to a 3-1 lead by two goals.

It wasn't until the 83rd minute that Cheng Hai was replaced to find his way.

But even with stoppage time only 10 minutes, and he just flew back to Germany from Beiping yesterday, he was very tired, Cheng Hai still performed well in such a short time, and even almost scored in the 88th minute.

It's just that this time Stuttgart's goalkeeper Ulrich performed well, saving Cheng Hai's powerful long-range shot from a slightly straight angle from outside the penalty area.

In the end, Dortmund easily defeated Stuttgart 3-1 in the away game. Cheng Hai played a game of winning experience in the last 10 minutes.

As for the others, goals, assists, best player awards in a single game, etc., are gone.

After 27 rounds of the Bundesliga, Dortmund has 24 wins, 3 draws and 0 losses, ranking first in the Bundesliga standings with 75 points. Since the beginning of this season, it has not lost a single game. Some fans have already shouted the slogan of winning the championship unbeaten this season.

This is a feat that has never been achieved by a team in the history of the Bundesliga.

Even if you look at the entire five major leagues, only AC Milan, Arsenal, and Juventus have won the championship unbeaten in the season.

However, there are still seven full rounds until the end of the season, and the end of the season is an important stage for championships and relegation in various competitions. The opponents will be desperate, and it is still unclear whether they can continue to be unbeaten for seven rounds.

拜仁慕尼黑本赛季的表现也不差，他们以23胜2平2负积71分的成绩紧随其后只差4分，No.3则只有40多分，差得太远。

This season's Bundesliga champion can only be produced between Dortmund and Bayern Munich, and other teams have no chance.

After playing the league game with Stuttgart, Dortmund did not have a holiday, and flew directly to Spain the next day to prepare for the Champions League away game with Malaga.

Malaga's performance in the UEFA Champions League this season is amazing. They advanced to the top 4 undefeated in the group stage and ranked first in points. In the group stage, they led the giants AC Milan in the same group by [-] points, which made AC Milan almost fail to make it out of the group stage.

In the quarterfinals, Málaga continued their dark horse journey, beating Porto, a veteran Portuguese super giant, with a total score of 2-1 in two rounds, and advanced to the quarterfinals.

I don't know how many fans in the world heard the name of this Malaga club established in 1994 for the first time. Malaga's dark horse performance in the Champions League this season can be said to have stunned countless fans.

However, that's it. No one believes that Malaga can defeat Dortmund led by Cheng Hai in the quarter-finals and continue their dark horse journey.

Of course, whether the outside world believes it or not, Malaga still has to fight hard. What if they really beat Dortmund?

Are there fewer unpopular matches in football where the weak beat the strong?

Malaga's ability beat AC Milan to qualify from the group stage with the unbeaten score of the first point. Not only is it lucky, but also has strength. The team has Demichelis, Baptista, Saviola, Isco and many other powerful superstars or golden boy-level rising stars.

Coupled with the home game and active fighting, Dortmund failed to score in the opening 20 minutes even when Cheng Hai started the game.

Fortunately, after a few days of rest, Cheng Hai finally helped Dortmund knock Malaga's goal in the 24th minute after adapting to the atmosphere of the away game.

Cheng Hai broke through Malaga's defense with a series of three-man breakthroughs, sent the ball into the opponent's goal, and helped Dortmund take a 1-0 lead in the away game.

The score fell behind and the opponent scored an away goal. Malaga had no choice but to strengthen the offense in the next time. On the defense, they could only be forced to use foul tactics to prevent Dortmund from counterattacking.

But if there are too many fouls, no matter how careful you are, you will be punished.

In the 37th minute, the Malaga team, which had been unable to score a goal to equalize the score, was in a hurry. They attacked too high. When Dortmund intercepted the ball and counterattacked, they did not have enough manpower to return to the defense. The last defender, Verigton, could only put Lewandowski on the ground when Lewandowski dribbled through him.

Although the distance is a bit far, Cheng Hai's shooting skills, shooting power, and arcing skills are all at full value. This time he took the free kick and played very well. Finally, he sent the ball into Malaga's goal with a full-moon scimitar-style arcing shot.

After four games, Cheng Hai finally scored twice in a single game, helping Dortmund take a 2-0 away lead.

However, Malaga can stage a dark horse miracle, and there are still merits in strength and state.

Before the end of the first half, in the 44th minute, Malaga passed a corner kick, and the center back Demichelis, who was fighting for the top, headed the ball into the Dortmund goal guarded by Weidenfeller, tying the score to 1-2 and only one goal behind.

This goal gave Malaga players and fans a little hope, but unfortunately the first half ended immediately, and their state of scoring was interrupted.

After a 10-minute break and the restart of the second half, Málaga failed to score again.

Instead, on Dortmund's side, Lewandowski and Cheng Hai scored two more goals in the second half.

After four games, Cheng Hai finally performed a hat-trick in the official game.

In the end, Dortmund beat Malaga 4-1 away in the first round of the quarter-finals, and there were four away goals, basically announcing the end of the suspense in the second round.
