Frost Shooter of Greenery

Chapter 408 Set sail at home, pay tribute to Qi Ce!
Dortmund's opponent in the first round of the DFB-Pokal is the German third-tier league, Burghausen in the Bundesliga.

According to the usual practice, the Dortmund team went to Burghausen in Bavaria. This opponent had encountered it when Klopp was still leading Mainz in the Bundesliga. It was in the 2003-2004 season. In the Bundesliga Bundesliga, went to Burghausen SV-Wacker Stadium, Klopp's Mainz also lost 0:2, but at Bruch Road, they won 1:0 again.

This time leading Dortmund to challenge Burghausen, which has been relegated to the third division, Klopp will not let the last defeat repeat itself.

In the first round of the German Cup, Klopp sent a mix of main players and substitutes as always, and Zize was also in the starting lineup this time.

In this game, Dortmund also encountered unexpected difficulties.

Although Burghausen didn't score a goal, their defense was very tenacious. Dortmund's offense was always a little bit worse, and the luck of scoring was not very good. The condition is also very good.

Unlike the opponents Qi Ce encountered in the past two years, this team played very well in terms of tactics and discipline. It can only be said that it is indeed the team that once defeated Klopp.

The first goal did not appear until the No.70 minute of the game. The substitute Qi Ce and the new aid of this season, the Brazilian Da Silva, played a match and then entered the penalty area. Defensively, Qi Ce shot a low shot, the football rushed to the far end, hit the crossbar and was ejected!

At this time, Lewandowski slapped the horse and rushed to make a supplementary shot and finally sent the ball to the opponent's goal!

Lewandowski scored his first goal for the Hornets on his first-team debut for Borussia Dortmund.

After holding on for more than an hour, Burghausen finally failed to hold on. The so-called one-bomb, then decline, three-time exhaustion, without this energy, these players also lost their fighting spirit.

In the end, Dortmund defeated their opponent 2:0 in the away game and successfully advanced to the next round.

In this game, in addition to Da Silva, Lewandowski, and Piszczek also made their debut, he was also very stable in the game, and his opponents were weaker. Not much performance, but very surprising on the offensive end.

After all, he was born as a winger. Due to the injury of the main right back in Hertha Berlin last season, he played a guest role as a right back for a while, and the effect was unexpectedly good. This is why Klopp decided to sign him.

In addition to Owomoyela, in fact, Dortmund had a cameo at the right-back position for a while last season, that is, Gross Klotz. Klopp seems to have a soft spot for transforming offensive players into full-backs.

The first round of the German Cup also heralds the official start of the new season. After this long offseason with the World Cup, the rhythm of the league has officially begun. Many fans are still stuck in the aftermath of the World Cup.

The first round of the Bundesliga starts in late August. As the defending champion, Dortmund's match is the opening game of the Bundesliga this season. They will set sail at home. The first opponent is the pharmaceutical company Bayer Leverkusen.

Leverkusen's lineup has not changed much this season, with a total cost of less than 600 million. The king is the young Croatian defender Vida who only costs 240 million euros.

However, they also ushered in the return of an iconic figure, that is, Ballack. After the end of last season, Ballack's contract with Chelsea expired, and he chose to return to the place that made him famous.

Compared with last season's lineup, Leverkusen's reinforcement does not lie in immediate combat power, but experience. Ballack's return will inevitably bring veteran experience to the young Leverkusen.

In the first round of his return, Ballack put on the captain's armband to represent Leverkusen in the first game, and Zize finally ushered in his home debut with the No. [-] jersey.

In the first round of the league, at the Westfalenstadion, the fans once again presented an epic painting to the world. This is the scene of Dortmund winning the Bundesliga championship last season. On the screen, Zize is shirtless and sitting Throw your fists and roar at the top of the crowd!

Zize was very surprised.

To be honest, he knows that he must be very popular among Dortmund fans now, but this team with a long history and a glorious past, the fans love more people.

Qi Ce didn't think that he, who had just been here for a year, could be so popular, but in fact, there was only one main character presented in this giant painting, and that was himself.

"Wow! Director Tao! This is Qi Ce!"

At this time, it was already two o'clock in the middle of the night in China, but the live broadcast signal of CCTV Sports Station was still connected to Dortmund in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany on time, and Duan Xuan and Tao Wei were still sitting in the live broadcast room to explain the game.

This giant TIFO surprised and honored not only Qi Ce, but also Duan Xuan, Tao Wei, and thousands of Chinese fans.

"Yes, how can one not love such fans! Last season, our Chinese superstar Qi Ce staged a big four in the key battle between Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich. Munich snatched the championship salad plate between the teeth! This kind of game may not be repeated in ten years, which will definitely be unforgettable for Dortmund fans. Thinking about it this way, it is not a big deal to pay tribute to Zize in the first round of the new season. Unimaginable things."

Tao Wei's calm voice hides excitement. Although he is a Bayern Munich fan, he has now noticed that Dortmund, which has Zize, is also his support object.

Zize faced the South Stand to express his gratitude to the fans. The majestic and magnificent stadium at this moment gave a standing ovation for Zize.

Respond to them on the court, of course!
Finally, the new season of the Bundesliga has finally kicked off with the whistle of the referee.

Heynckes and his Leverkusen have matured day by day. Leverkusen ranked fourth last season and performed fairly well. This season Leverkusen also shouted the slogan of fighting for the championship.

This is not random shouting. Kisling scored 21 goals in the league last season and ranked third. In addition, Leverkusen's Swiss winger Barnetta also entered the top five assists in the Bundesliga last season. Dahl, Lars Bender, Augusto and other midfielders are becoming more mature, the lineup has not changed much, and the team system is already very mature.

For Dortmund, a new aid was started. Royce started the game. He, Zize and Kuba formed three attackers. The midfielders were Kyle, Shaheen and Shinji Kagawa. The defense line, Piszczek did not play, and Owomoyela and Schmelzer served as the two defenders. Subotic and Hummels have become more and more stable after training last season.

After the start of the game, Dortmund was at full strength from the very beginning. As the defending champion, Dortmund's champion demeanor in the new season surprised the fans.

However, the old-fashioned Heynckes obviously expected Dortmund's behavior style. Klopp has won the Bundesliga's best head coach for two consecutive terms. His style will naturally be studied and even imitated by most of his peers.

Obviously, in Heynckes' capacity, he can't imitate his opponent. What he will do is to study how to deal with Dortmund. It's similar to last season's style of play. They still plan to give up the ball. , allowing Dortmund to attack.

And Leverkusen's defensive midfielder combination composed of Vidal and Bender is very solid. They have resolutely implemented defensive tactics from the beginning, and the defense of these two people can also be described as an impregnable wall.

Dortmund's luxurious offensive combination was unable to knock on the opponent's goal in the first half.

On the contrary, Leverkusen's counterattack was very sharp, and Kiesling had speed, skill at his feet, and good strength. He formed a big threat in front of Dortmund.

However, in the first half, the two teams did not seem to be able to score. Zize had a very good chance in the No. 40 minute. He received a through pass from Royce from outside the penalty area in the penalty area, but he kicked the goal. It's a pity to be on the outside of the net.

But this attack allowed Klopp to see what he wanted to see.

This is an important reason why he wants Royce to come to the team to replace Zidan.

Zize and Royce cooperated very well when they were in Mainz. Zize ran in the penalty area, and Royce used his skills to attract the defense outside the penalty area, and then sent an exquisite through ball.

It can be said that the two can have similar effects in reverse, crossing positions, using continuous running, running and bombing to attack the opponent's defense.

The second half.

In the 10th and 25th minute, Borussia Dortmund at home finally scored a goal. It came from a set kick. Zize did not give in. He stood less than [-] yards from the goal and blasted away Adler with a heavy shot. Guard the gate!
Westfalen, which has been silent for a long time, finally broke out, and the fans celebrated this goal enthusiastically. This is their first goal in the league in the new season, and it is also Zize's first goal this season!
