Grassroots Glory

Currently Schalke is thriving in the standings, the other three teams in the top four are now fans of Wolfsburg. The reason is not difficult to understand, only Wolfsburg beat Schalke, they are eligible to continue coveting the championship.

There are no permanent friends, no permanent enemies, only permanent interests. Professional football is a real world. Although Wolfsburg is also the rival of the other two teams in the championship, but facing the common opponent Schalke o4, they have the same appeal, so they can naturally united front.

Contrary to the attention paid to by the media, Slomka seems to regard this as an ordinary game, training is open normally, players are interviewed normally, and even some non-core tactical issues are not avoided.

This scene is similar to Schalke's performance at home before the second Ruhr Derby this season. Slomka has continued to convey strong confidence throughout the season.

Similarly, the Wolfsburg media also sensed the opportunity, proud soldiers must lose! When facing Dortmund at home, didn't Schalke lead by two goals and were almost overturned? Wolfsburg, which sits at home, is not without opportunity!

Some local tabloids even suggested to the home team that if Zhou Tiancheng cannot be defended, he should not be allowed to stay on the field. If the Schalke midfielder's biggest reliance is compromised, the chances of getting out at home will be greatly increased.

Of course, this kind of view is only limited to spreading among the fans, and it cannot be on the stage. What's more, Magath was full of confidence in the pre-match press conference: Schalke has their advantages, and we also have. Although Zhou Tiancheng is very good, he is a human being after all, and it is impossible to cover the whole audience every minute, so It's not like we don't have a chance.

Different media will interpret Magath's words in different ways. The Schalke media and the Chinese media exaggerated Magath's confession before the battle, and Zhou Tiancheng's midfield dominance made opponents fear.

Including Wolfsburg, there are still some neutral media who have vaguely guessed Magath's basic way to fight against Schalke o4.

...

The city of Wolfsburg is known all over the world for the headquarters of the world-famous Volkswagen Group,

Interestingly, here, cars and football can be closely integrated. The sponsor behind the Wolfsburg club is Volkswagen, and even the home stadium is named after Volkswagen. Many media are optimistic that if Wolfsburg successfully enters the Champions League this year, Xia Chuang may set off a wave of signings.

The benefactor behind it is not short of money!

Today's Volkswagen Stadium is extremely hot, with nearly 30,000 seats in the ordinary stands, and the tickets were sold out three days before the game. Even in the top VIP box of the stadium, there are several big men in suits and leather shoes sitting today.

This game is very hot throughout Germany, but in Wolfsburg, a small city with a population of only 120,000, it is no exaggeration to say that it is empty. Even if the Volkswagen Stadium is expanded to accommodate 100,000 people, it is estimated that it will still be full today. Fans who did not get tickets at this moment gathered at home, bars, squares and other places to create momentum for the game.

At the media level, at least ten countries are very concerned about this game. In addition to the German media, countries such as China, Japan, Brazil, Croatia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina are all very concerned about the performance of their respective national stars.

The live broadcast camera captured an interesting scene before the start of the game: Japanese international Makoto Hasebe took the initiative to walk over to say hello to Zhou Tiancheng. The angle of the camera was just right to see his side face. And disdain, although Makoto Hasebe can't be called respectful now, he is obviously a lot more polite, and he deliberately holds a spare jersey in his hand, as if to ask for Zhou Tiancheng's opinion and exchange jerseys.

Usually this is only after the game, Makoto Hasebe is now walking up with the jersey. It is not difficult to see that Zhou Tiancheng impressed him very deeply in the last match.

But Zhou Tiancheng just nodded lightly out of courtesy, and then walked to the other side to talk to Rakitic and others. Hasebe Makoto put his hot face on his cold butt, and was embarrassed to hang his jersey aside.

Duan Xuan wanted to laugh inexplicably when he saw this scene, but he forced himself to hold back, and discussed the matter relatively objectively: This is the reality, so don't complain that Japan always treats us coldly at the football level. Instead of worrying about these things, it is better to improve yourself. This scene is Qi, the strength is enough to make the opponent look up to, are you afraid that it will not be respected?

The kick-off time for this game is 9:30 p.m. local time in Berlin, which is later than the normal kick-off time. At the same time, even though Beijing time is close to 3:30 a.m., Schalke and even the Bundesliga Post Bar are still very lively, because With Tian Cheng's existence, the number of people who stayed up late to watch the game increased significantly. Here, the fans' remarks are much more direct.

Brilliant job! Just give Zhou Tiancheng such an arrogant smile, and manually send thirty-two likes.

Phew~ I feel really angry! Thinking of the Asian Cup a few years ago, the little Japan relied on referees to win the championship in Gongti. Zhou Tiancheng's way of doing this is definitely to be praised. What is it to look down on you? It was just a live teacher who passed by and left such a comment. Zhou Tiancheng's approach immediately won the hearts of Chinese fans.

And Makoto Hasebe's eyes flashed with sadness for a moment, and then he gritted his teeth. Even when he first arrived in the Bundesliga, he exchanged jerseys with the superstars of Bayern, as long as he told his origin, the captain of the Japanese national team, no one could ignore him like this. Now he feels his pride has been bruised.

Damn! Will I lose to you? Makoto Hasebe angrily threw the spare jersey on the seat beside the field, and then walked back to the field, with a stern look in his eyes.

As soon as the kick-off time came, the referee Blüch blew his whistle, and the entire Volkswagen Stadium greeted the start of the game with a round of cheers like a tsunami.

In the first wave of kick-offs, Wolfsburg proved their determination. Standing in the middle circle to kick-off were the two midfielders in the 4-4-2 formation, Makoto Hasebe gently pushed the ball to Mi Simovic, followed by the Bosnia and Herzegovina midfielder kicked towards the front of Schalke's penalty area. Dzeko held Westermann who was marking him behind him, and gently headed back. Hewedes stabs out from the side, pointing at the goal!

If there is a decibel meter, it can be detected immediately that the moment the Grafite is started, the cheers at the Volkswagen Stadium doubled in an instant.

Wolfsburg's offensive is so direct and without fancy, but because of Dzeko and Grafite's high-speed combination, the simplest tactics can also achieve the most threatening effect.

Fortunately, Schalke has an excellent goalkeeper who is diligent in attacking. The strength of Dzeko's header to Ferry Grafite is not very suitable. Neuer took a quick step and took advantage of his leg length to get ahead of Grafite. Tackle the ball out of the box. Misimovic still had a chance to shoot a long shot from the outside, but under the interference of Zhou Tiancheng's active fall to the ground, he hurriedly shot his foot and missed the goal slightly.

It's dangerous! Schalke survived a catastrophe in the opening game. This should be Wolfsburg's regular offensive routine today. The presence of Zhou Tiancheng makes them dare not entangle too much in the midfield, but such a direct bombing, Hewedes It might become a relatively big loophole. He was the one who didn't keep an eye on Graffit just now. After Duan Xuan finished speaking, he took a deep breath.

At this time, Westerman exercised the powers of the captain on the field and reminded Hewedes to pay attention to seizing a favorable position. Höwedes nodded humbly to Big Brother's reminder.

The first wave of attack in the opening game can be regarded as Wolfsburg's disarming power, but their tactics are destined to be unable to gain control of the ball. After Schalke O4 stabilized their position, Zhou Tiancheng and Rakitic took over the two metronomes. It is not difficult to take the initiative in the field.

But back to the defensive end, Wolfsburg's midfield defense is quite tough. It is mainly reflected in Makoto Hasebe's attitude towards Zhou Tiancheng. Zhou Tiancheng was threatened by Misimovic's pressing from the side near the center circle. He was just about to catch the ball with his back to protect the ball, but Makoto Hasebe rushed up from behind He stretched out his foot and hit Zhou Tiancheng's left ankle.

At the same time as Breher's whistle sounded, the close-up shots immediately focused on Zhou Tiancheng who was lying on the ground. Slomka raised his hands on the coach's bench and shouted exaggeratedly: Red card! This is intentional!

The referee Breher has his own judgment. If he sent off a player within a few minutes of the opening, he will be under a lot of pressure. But no matter how Makoto Hasebe defended his innocence, he would never get away with a yellow card and received a severe warning. There would never be a next time.

Although Makoto Hasebe was punished, Chinese fans still frantically wrote messages about the foul in the online comment area, full of righteous indignation.

Yellow card? This is the tm home whistle. Zhang Gu has no chance to grab the ball at all. The referee's red card is in his bag and refuses to take it out. Can it be exchanged for gambling chips?

Damn it, as long as Zhou Tiancheng is fine, find a chance and we'll come back!

Upstairs, this kind of vindictiveness that hurts both sides is not worth it. Isn't it enough to scold him... Come on, come on, give each person a sentence of eight ga, and he can't understand him when he is called a fool.

Because of the large number of likes, this comment was directly on the top of the hot comment list, and there were thousands of replies, all of which were the same two words.

Fortunately, after the game was interrupted for a few minutes, Zhou Tiancheng stood up slowly, which really made many people who cared about him breathe a sigh of relief.

It all depends on physical fitness, that is, Zhou Tiancheng's body, his tendons can survive such a sudden and violent blow, and it will be another result for someone else.

Duan Xuan thought that this was the change brought about by Zhou Tiancheng's experience in the Bundesliga. In fact, Zhou Tiancheng can have this foundation, all thanks to Elgert's strengthening of him during the u19 period. Zhou Tiancheng has only gradually adapted to the rhythm of the Bundesliga, but to be honest, he has improved more in the first team. Skills and game awareness From the very beginning, Slomka felt that Zhou Tiancheng's physical fitness did not need to be deliberately strengthened.

Everything has a cause and effect. If it wasn't for Zhou Tiancheng's physical fitness far beyond his peers, how could he have quickly grabbed the chance to play in the first team at the beginning?

Zhou Tiancheng rested for a few minutes, got up and took two steps to make sure there was no problem, and the game resumed immediately.

Makoto Hasebe received a yellow card. After the game restarted, Misimovic was obviously active in midfield and more active on the defensive end. Makoto Hasebe's main task was to interfere with and defend Zhou Tiancheng. Originally, Misimovich felt that he would not be so obviously disadvantaged by Tiancheng last week in terms of height and size, but Makoto Hasebe wanted to compete with Zhou Tiancheng in his heart. Misimovic's offer was rejected.

In this way, Misimovic can only stare at Rakitic on the defensive end. The two match up. Regardless of experience, technical awareness and physical fitness, the rookie-level Rakitic is obviously not at a disadvantage. .

Although the rhythm of the field is controlled by Zhou Tiancheng, it is impossible for him not to pass the ball to Rakitic. At this time, Misimovic directly won the ball by virtue of his quick grab and counterattacked with the ball.

In Zhou Tiancheng's superstar growth system, Misimovic's offensive skills are all above 85, which is the standard star level of the five major leagues. He counterattacks with the ball and is more threatening than Makoto Hasebe's steals and advances. too much.

The home fans naturally knew it too, so the cheers suddenly rose again.

Misimovic dribbled the ball forward along the left side of the midfield. Seeing Zhou Tiancheng moving sideways quickly, with the outside instep sticking to the ground, trying to give Grafite a straight run, Zhou Tiancheng judged his intention and put I stretched my legs to the limit and slowed down the ball, but it still rolled towards Grafitt.

After getting the ball, Grafite faced Hewedes who was placed in front of him, fully showing the advantages of the 1.78-meter forward, smashing the ball back and forth with his left and right feet, making continuous fake moves, and finally tricked Hewedes into eating Akira lost his center of gravity, Grafite made a breakthrough, and then lobbed a high ball from a small angle in the penalty area to the goal. With his height of 1.93 meters, Dzeko directly pressed Mount Tai in front of the goal. Westerman couldn't jump at all. Got up and smashed the ball into the dead corner before Neuer.

Eighteen minutes, 0:1, Schalke fell into a passive away game.

Westerman buried his head and kept shaking his head. He asked himself now, not regret, but helplessness.

Marcel Leff objectively commented: Westman doesn't need to blame himself. He didn't make any mistakes in defending this time. He just lost to the innate physical fitness gap.

Duan Xuan kept shaking his head and sighing in the Beijing studio: There is nothing to say about this ball. Schalke's two central defenders each have their own disadvantages. Höwedes lost in experience, and Westerman lost in natural factors. But It's Wolfsburg, they don't need the initiative, but Dzeko and Grafite, the combination of black and white, is their ultimate move, and the two completely complement each other. It is precisely because of the existence of this pair of strikers that they Even Bayern and Dortmund are at home. If Schalke wants to solve the worries of attacking, Slomka may wish to make some adjustments on the defense line, trying to make these two misfires as much as possible, and cut them off. the relationship between.

The guest Tao Wei next to Duan Xuan smiled meaningfully: This score means that the time for Zhou Tiancheng's performance is coming!
