Chapter 129 Elegance never goes out of style
On October 10, in the second round of the UEFA Champions League group stage, Schalke 3 faced the challenge of Ligue 04 champion Montpellier at home.

Schalke played very actively. Montpellier was crushed at the beginning, but several consecutive shots failed to hit the goal frame.

In the 13th minute, Cabea broke through the center and scored the ball. After stopping the ball on the left side of the penalty area, Fana took advantage of the situation and flashed to the inside. He curved the ball with his right foot into the far corner 17 meters away.

Montpellier succeeded with the first shot, 0-1.

In the 26th minute, Huntelaar's midfielder received a pass from Yang Feng and went straight into the middle. Draxler quickly moved forward, wading past goalkeeper Jourdain and then pushed to the empty goal, 1-1.

In the second half, they changed sides and fought again. Schalke suffered a heavy blow shortly after the start.

Draxler broke through the middle and broke into the penalty area. When two people faced the goalkeeper and were about to kick, they were tripped by Bokali from behind.

To make matters worse, Xiaode collided with Jude Lang when he landed, and was quickly carried out of the field on a stretcher.

The referee awarded a penalty kick and directly sent off Boccali with a red card. Huntelaar shot the football into the right side of the goal steadily, 2-1.

Schalke, who had the superior numbers, controlled the overall situation, but unfortunately they did not score. Before the end of the game, Tan Ang, who came off the bench, returned from the center of the penalty area. Kamara scored with a curve ball. The two sides shook hands 2-2.

In another match in the same group, Arsenal beat Olympiacos 3-1 at home, taking all 6 points and ranking first in the group.

Draxler was diagnosed with a fractured left forearm after examination at the hospital that night and will be sidelined for a month.

Three days later, in the seventh round of the Bundesliga, Schalke 04 played at home against Wolfsburg coached by former coach Magath.

Draxler's broken hand bone did not heal, Papadopoulos was unable to play because of chickenpox, Farfan sprained his foot in training and had to be exempted from the game, Schalke 04 attacked with a remnant formation, and finally relied on labor Seoul opened the scoring and Yang Feng's one pass and one shot drew the opponent 3-3.

The moment Yang Feng scored a goal, the system that had been silent for three games suddenly rang.

"You score the 50th goal of your career, and you will be rewarded with one point. Current points: 11"

"Yang Feng scored 18 goals in the league last season and 16 goals in the Europa League. This season, he scored a hat-trick in both the German Super Cup and the UEFA Super Cup. A total of 6 goals, 1 goal in the Champions League, and 9 goal in the league. Scored 50 goals, exactly 04 goals, and he is also the fastest player in the history of Schalke 50 club to reach [-] goals..."

Many Schalke 04 fans excitedly waved the cardboard in their hands, with 50 clearly written on it.

Among the other two teams ranked in the top three, Frankfurt failed to take the opportunity to open the score. Borussia was settled 0-2 and ran from the top to the third. Bayern lost 1-3 to Borisov in the Champions League. But defeated Hoffenheim 2-0 in the league, and the ranking returned to the first place.

On October 10, the Ruhr Derby.

"This is the first time the two sides have met in the league this season, but it is the second Ruhr Derby. The first time was the German Super Cup at the beginning of the season. At that time, Schalke 04 relied on Yang Feng's hat-trick 4- 2 beat Dortmund to win the title."

"Both sides are not in good shape recently. Schalke 04 lost 1-2 to Düsseldorf after a wave of crazy winning streak across the season, and then suffered two consecutive draws in the Champions League and the league. What was even more unlucky It was the left-winger Draxler who continued to miss out due to injury, but fortunately Farfan came back in time and started the game."

"The defending champion Dortmund let go of the midfielder Shinji Kagawa and ushered in the youth pride Royce, but they did not have the style of last season. First they lost the German Super Cup and then only won in the past seven league games. With three victories, 3 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss, they are slightly behind Schalke with 5 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss..."

"As for the players, Yang Feng finally stopped scoring goals in the Champions League, but his goals in the league continued. He has scored 11 consecutive games, while Dortmund's leading striker Lewandowski has only had two league games so far. Royce has already scored 2 goals, but the combined number of goals between the two is not as many as Yang Feng, because he has scored 7 goals in 9 league games..."

Schalke 04 just had two draws against Montpellier and Wolfsburg, and the other side is similar. In the Champions League, they drew 1-1 with Manchester City. In the league, they also drew 96-1 with Hannover 1. Big brother does not laugh at two Brother, everyone is mutual.

"It can't go on like this!" Stevens said, "We are now No.2 in the league, doesn't it sound good? But we have not won three games..."

Hewedes said: "Boss, you don't need to mobilize to play against Dortmund!"

"Okay! I believe in you, I hope you won't let me down!"

"Victory! Victory! Victory!"

When they came to the player tunnel, Yang Feng hugged Royce and said, "I heard that you have been doing well recently?"

"It also depends on who you compare with," Royce shook his head and said with emotion, "Scoring goals in eleven consecutive games, how did you do it?"

Yang Feng emphasized with regret: "It's the league."

"It's about the same."

The two shook hands again, "Come on."

"Dortmund manager Klopp unexpectedly changed to 3-3-2-2, Sven Bender dropped back as a sweeper, Piszczek and Gross Kreutz on the wings, Reus moved forward and Leigh Wandowski formed a double striker, and Gotze, Schmelzer and Bwaszczykowski were all absent due to injuries.

Goalkeeper: 1 Weidenfeller;

Defenders: 4 Subotic, 6 Sven Bender, 15 Hummels;

Midfielders: 26 Piszczek, 5 Kyle (C), 19 Gross Kreutz;
Avant-garde: 7 Laettner, 14 Perisic;

Forwards: 9 Lewandowski, 11 Royce.

Schalke did not change much. The injured Hildebrand replaced Ferman on the bench, Unnerstahl continued to start, and the most unexpected was Yang Feng, because Draxler's injury was not recovered, Yang Feng Maple will appear on the left side of this game instead of the center forward position he is more familiar with.

Goalkeeper: 36 Unnerstahl;
Defenders: 22 Atsuto Uchida, 4 Hewedes (C), 32 Matip, 23 Fuchs;
Midfielders: 12 Hegel, 17 Farfan, 9 Yang Feng;

Forwards: 10 Holtby, 25 Huntelaar, 7 Raul. "

The main players on both sides were injured, but relatively speaking, Dortmund, which lost Gotze and Schmelzer, was worse than Schalke, which only lacked Draxler.

It can be seen from the fact that Klopp had to make an emergency change in the derby. It is obvious that Dortmund is not having a good time. It was the time when his illness was killing him. Unfortunately, Schalke seems to have encountered some problems recently. The results of one loss and two draws are indeed much worse than those at the beginning of the season, giving everyone a feeling that they and Dortmund are a pair of difficult brothers, but only the Schalke players themselves understand that they actually have no problems at all.

The loss to Dusseldorf was unexpected because the newly promoted horses were so tricky, and they were able to score two goals at the Veltins Stadium within 50 minutes. As for Montpellier and Wolfsburg, although they were both It was a draw, but Schalke scored five goals in the two games. The firepower can only be blamed for the defense being too stretched, but Schalke's defense is like that, not spicy but rather Not used to it.

Dortmund has been in a sluggish state recently, but the enthusiasm of the fans is still there. The shocking shouts have been pouring into people's ears before the game starts.

I don't know when it started, Yang Feng has become the finale player of Schalke 04, and naturally he has also endured the biggest boos from the opponent's fans.

A bunch of voices were mixed together, and I couldn't hear what they were shouting. Anyway, it shouldn't be a good word.

But I didn't do anything good by coming here by myself, so it was evened out.

After the opening, the two teams started a fierce competition, but Dortmund didn't seem to adapt to the new formation, and the offense was not threatening, while Schalke played vigorously and quickly entered the state.

Klopp reduced one defender and piled up five midfielders. Naturally, the purpose was to improve the control of the midfield, but he failed to gain any obvious advantage when facing Schalke's three midfielders. Leading by the nose, I was exhausted for the first 10 minutes of the game.

Those who win the midfield win the world, that's all for talking, which of the three lines is not important?Even if there is a focus, it is based on the characteristics of the players and the situation of the opponent. What's more, Klopp's 3-3-2-2 failed to grab control of the midfield at all, but was suppressed.

More precisely, it was suppressed by Yang Feng.

Farfan, who has returned from injury, is almost a display, while Hegel focuses on interception in the midfield, and the offensive in the midfield is almost driven by Yang Feng alone.

Compared with being at the front, Yang Feng's dribbling advantage is undoubtedly better played on the side, and the entire left side is disturbed by him.

"Yang's here again, the outer instep, poor Grosskreutz, he's like a puppet in front of Yang..."

The words are exaggerated, of course, but Gross Kreutz was indeed shaken by Yang Feng's fast and fancy continuous bicycle.

This time he used Quaresma's agility, Isco's dribbling, and Recoba's sense of the ball, but because he deliberately put Quaresma's star card on the system dribbling column for training, he himself Some characteristics of Quaresma have already been brought into play when using bicycle technology, and then combined with Isco's dribbling technology, after the integration, it means that 1+1 is greater than 2.

Gross Kreutz came over to defend Kyle as soon as he was knocked out, and it was an extremely unceremonious and fierce sliding shovel.

Yang Feng stopped abruptly and changed direction, dodging dangerously.

After passing two players in a row, Yang Feng didn't show his strength anymore, but passed the ball to Raul in the middle.

Raúl plays the ball quickly and transfers it to Atsuto Uchida on the other side.

Facing Piszczek's defense, Atsuto Uchida even stepped on a bicycle like Yang Feng, and he did it in a decent way. Unfortunately, Piszczek saw through it and kicked the ball out. border.

Atsuto Uchida went out to serve, but found that the nearest teammates had been followed closely. He was trying to throw as far as possible in the frontcourt, but he found that Yang Feng suddenly ran over from the right side of the court.

When he moved, Gross Kreutz could only follow suit.

The two ran to the center one after the other, and Atsuto Uchida quickly threw the ball in front of Yang Feng.

Yang Feng slowed down, and Gross Kreutz was about to press close to him, but Yang Feng suddenly lowered his body and let the football fly over his head.

When Gross Kreutz reacted, the football had already flown from the left side of his body, and Yang Feng went around the other side of his body and got the football behind him.

Kyle seemed to have expected that Gross Kreutz would not be able to handle Yang Feng, so he rushed to Yang Feng the moment Yang Feng just received the ball, but Yang Feng predicted his prediction, pulled the ball and turned around while touching the ball, and used a kick A silky Marseille gyration freed him from his entanglement.

"Schalke 04's sideline kick, Atsuto Uchida threw the ball to Yang Feng... Beautiful! The imaginative back pass... Be careful of Kyle... Marseilles spin, passed..."

After passing Gross Kreutz and Kyle again, Yang Feng continued to pass to the Raul organization, while he walked leisurely towards Dortmund's penalty area.

Raul's form this season is actually not very good, but he has begun to recover recently. He nimbly dodged Laettner's pressing and then cooperated with Farfan in a small area to push the ball forward.

Holtby, who finally got the chance to start, moved very aggressively, and immediately retreated to respond. The football slowly penetrated into Dortmund's penalty area like a blunt knife.

Dortmund's three defenders blocked the goal like a wall. Huntelaar, who had the ball, had no choice but to kick it hard like a pity, and shot the ball to the left of the goal.

The football hit Sven Bender's calf and bounced off.

Klopp on the sidelines just breathed a sigh of relief, but the hairs all over his body stood up in the next second.

"Why is he there?!"

All Dortmund players on the bench hugged their heads at the same time, and many Bumblebee fans in the stands did the same thing.

In fact, Yang Feng didn't know how the football somehow landed at his feet.

Although he played as a left midfielder, he has been wandering in all areas of the frontcourt all the time. Just now, he ran into the small penalty area for some reason, and the football came to his feet inexplicably.

Hummels reacted the fastest. As soon as the football came to Yang Feng, he stretched out his foot and poked it.

Yang Feng stomped and pulled the ball sideways, and easily let him pass.

Sven Bender, who "passed" the ball to Yang Feng, hurried up to make up for it, and it was a rather rough kick.

Yang Feng stomped and pulled again like a conditioned reflex, and it was another Marseille maneuver.

The audience in the stands were collectively speechless.

You know how to do this, right?
You are not dizzy, we are all dizzy.

Similar complaints flashed in my heart, but what came out of my mouth were various exclamations of unknown meaning.

Because after pulling the ball continuously and turning around, only goalkeeper Weidenfeller was left in front of Yang Feng.

"Yang Feng... Marseille roundabout! Passed! Sven Bender... Marseille roundabout again?! Oh, it's over again, single-handedly?!"

Weidenfeller kept following Yang Feng with his eyes, and fell to the ground immediately after he passed Bender.

This trick is called "vicious dog rushing food" in martial arts novels.

As soon as Yang Feng stood firm, he saw a black shadow rushing towards him. He immediately pulled the ball back with his right foot, and while turning around, he knocked the ball back with the heel of his left foot...

The football rolled dingily into the goal.

The Iduna Signal Park Stadium, which was still lively like thunder a second ago, immediately fell into a brief pause, and then all kinds of exclamations, shouts and whispers sounded together.

After Yang Feng scored the ball, he didn't run to celebrate immediately, but stood on the spot and shook his head, looking dazed.

Duan Xuan was already so excited that he was going crazy.

"The goal was scored! Yang Feng passed Hummels, Sven Bender and Weidenfeller, and kicked the ball into Dortmund's goal with his heel... Well, this round should be called a Marseille whirlwind hat-trick?"

"Yang, passed! Passed! Passed again? GOOOOOOOOLLLLL!!!! Art-like goal! Elegance never goes out of style! This is a goal that even Zidane would jump up when he saw it! Three consecutive goals Marseille gyration! I have only seen this kind of scene on Zidane, but there are three consecutive Marseille gyrations in the penalty area, and the last one directly passed the goalkeeper. Sorry, I have never heard of it... Well, maybe someone It's been done in a football game."

"You opened the scoring for the team in the derby, and you will be rewarded with a point. Current points: 12"

"You have completed a difficult effective dribbling breakthrough, and you will be rewarded with one point. Current points: 13"

　As I said before, this book has no outline, and I haven’t figured out where to stand for the second time, but it’s nothing more than La Liga and the Premier League. In fact, I prefer La Liga. It should be better to face Melo with hard steel when they are at their peak. A little bit, but after Real Madrid and Barcelona in La Liga, I really can't think of any popular teams, let alone Atletico Madrid...
