As a goalkeeper, carry the team forward

Chapter 195 Before the match with Real Madrid (various requests)
In fact, Jose still felt a little pity that he was out of the German Cup, but he had nothing to say about the head coach's arrangement.

In modern football, it is too difficult to win the triple crown.

If a player is injured because of greed, the loss will be great.

Of course, it is also wrong to give up lightly.

After the game, fans who supported Gua's Bayern believed that as long as Bayern won the direct confrontation with Leverkusen, the Bundesliga champion would still belong to Gua's Bayern.

Jose's training is still very serious. The experience of countless older players tells Jose that most players grow up at the age of 20-23.

Because of this age group, the body has begun to slowly take shape, and the personal skills of the players will gradually be polished during this period of time.

There are not a few geniuses who become famous at a young age, but because they failed to polish themselves well during the precious growth period, they were eventually abandoned.

Piazon, who was once placed high hopes by Chelsea, is now looking more and more mediocre.

Jose knew very well that with his original aptitude, he could only embark on the path of a third-rate professional player at best, which was no different from his previous life.

The emergence of the system gave Jose the hope of growing into a top player.

Systems are undoubtedly powerful, but they are not omnipotent.

In fact, Jose never dared to think about where the system came from.

The weekend games are not too difficult.

On April 4th, Leverkusen will go to the Opel Arena to challenge the 11th-ranked Mainz.

The only change in the starting list for this game is that Jedvaj returned from injury and replaced Spahic as the left center back.

In the rest of the positions, Schmidt made the main appearance.

Although the game against Real Madrid is just four days away, if the game is lost in order to retain strength, the blow to morale will be the most serious.

Leverkusen kick off first.

After a pass, the ball arrived at Jose's feet.

The God's perspective was opened, and Jose found that the opponent's formation was also a 4231 formation with a balanced offense and defense.

Not finding a good route for the ball, Jose distributed the ball to Toprak in front of him.

This is the beginning of an offensive and defensive battle between you and me.

The fighting in the midfield was extremely fierce, and the number of fouls was also increasing.

In the 6th minute, the opposing winger Gu Zizhe came to the left to take the ball.

Diagonal pass in the restricted area, the ball arrived at Shinji Okazaki's feet.

The tacit understanding between two players from Japan is naturally better than others.

Shinji Okazaki took the ball sideways, and under the pressure of Yedvay, he completed a kick shot.

The ball flew towards the left side of the goal.

No trouble at all for Jose.

With a leap, Jose directly confiscated the ball.

Mainz's first kick into the goal was easily resolved by Jose.

In the 15th minute, Charhanoglu received a pass from Hilbert from the right.

Trying to break into the penalty area was fruitless, and Charhanoglu kicked a long pass.

He saw Sun Xingmin, who was unmarked, entering the penalty area from the left.

On the left side of Mainz's small penalty area, Sun Xingmin received a pass from his teammate and volleyed directly.

The ball is in.

Leverkusen lead away.

Mainz began to organize a counterattack. They firmly controlled the possession of the ball, but it was difficult to find a chance to shoot.

At the end of the first half, Jose made only one save.

The same goes for the opposing goalkeeper.

During the intermission, fans left messages one after another.

"Is this the number one team? They were overwhelmed by Mainz. They took a single shot throughout the first half and scored."

"As far as the performance of the pharmaceutical factory is concerned, wait for the tragedy of my emperor three days later."

"I picked up a big gift bag and am here, don't be so happy when I get slapped in the face."

In the second half, the two sides exchanged venues.

After the opening, Schmidt took the lead in substitutions.

Rolfers came on and Bella Rabbi was substituted.

For the midweek game, the physical distribution still needs to be done well.

In the 59th minute, Leverkusen made another victory, and Hilbert made a cross from the wing.

Kisling scored with a header.

2:0.

It was Leverkusen's third shot on target.

The game continues.

In the 60th minute, Gu Zizhe took a long shot from outside the penalty area, but it was directly confiscated by Jose.

In the 66th minute, at 12 yards in the penalty area, Shinji Okazaki received a pass from his teammate and headed the goal directly, but was blocked by Jose with a single punch.

In the 69th minute, Marle HLD suddenly cast a cold arrow, and the ball went straight to the lower right corner of the goal.

However, he still couldn't escape Jose's ten fingers, and was blocked by him from the bottom line with one hand.

One after another, Mainz's shots failed to threaten Jose at all.

In the 73rd minute, Leverkusen got a free kick in the frontcourt.

Calhanoglu takes the penalty.

Hit the door directly.

3:0.

There seems to be no suspense in the game.

Mainz fans began to leave the field one after another.

However, things are not over.

In the 78th minute, Shinji Okazaki dribbled the ball into the penalty area.

Toprak's defensive action was too big, and the opponent was brought down.

A penalty is awarded to Leverkusen.

Normally, Jose would not take this penalty seriously.

But now, in preparation for the first leg against Real Madrid in three days.

Jose must have sufficient number of cheats.

In other words, Jose needs to rely on his own saving ability to save this penalty.

Gu Zizhe took the penalty kick.

The fans and players of the Leverkusen team looked relaxed.

Only Jose looked serious.

Gu Zizhe didn't have too many fancy moves, and volleyed directly to the upper left.

Jose judged the right direction, but after all, he was still a little bit short.

The ball is in.

Mainz recovered a point.

Schmidt continued to make substitutions, Delmic and Brandt came off the bench one after another, while Kisling and Charhanoglu got the chance to leave the field early to rest.

In Schmidt's view, it was nothing for Mainz to recover a goal.

The game continues.

Injury time period.

Hailo, who came off the bench, took the ball from the side, dunked Wendell and broke into the right side of the penalty area.

Just as he was about to push, Jedwai blocked his way.

Jedvay stretched out his foot to poke the ball away, but the ball missed the opponent's calf instead.

Leverkusen was awarded another penalty.

It was too generous to give the opponent two consecutive penalties in a game that was thought to be a surefire game.

Jose shook his head slightly and sighed secretly.

It was Gu Zizhe who was responsible for the penalty kick.

Same as the first time, the difference is that this time he chose to volley the top right.

The moment the opponent touched the ball, Jose had already guessed the direction of the opponent's shot.

He jumped up and rushed towards the right side of the goal.

This time, Jose blocked the opponent's penalty kick.

However, the blocked ball was rolling towards Gu Zizhe.

The players of the Leverkusen team were obviously half a beat slower, and they had no time to enter the penalty area to help make a clearance.

Facing the rebounding ball, Gu Zizhe shot directly to the lower left corner.

3:2.

Mainz recovered a goal again.

For Mainz's second penalty, Jose saved it, but didn't save it completely.

For this conceded goal, Jose cannot be blamed. Even if Yashin is alive again, it is impossible to control the rebound direction of the blocked ball when saving a penalty kick.

In the end, Leverkusen beat Mainz with a thrilling 3-2 score.

Due to Bayern's 3-0 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt at the same time, Neuer's clean sheets increased by one game, reaching 19 games, only 3 games away from Jose's clean sheets.

Neuer is not without a chance of reversal.

As for the points gap between Leverkusen and Bayern, it remains unchanged.

It is still too early to say who the Bundesliga champion will be.

The match between Leverkusen and Mainz did not attract much attention.

People are paying more attention to the first round of the Champions League quarter-finals.

On April 4, the UEFA Champions League will play two games in the quarter-finals.

Juventus played against Monaco at home, and the outside world generally believed that Juventus should be able to win.

As for the match between Leverkusen and Real Madrid, people are unanimously optimistic that Real Madrid can double kill the pharmaceutical factory at home and away.

Only the European Gaming Company, they even offered the odds of a tie.

"Everyone, don't be fooled, this is a spinach company's lure." Someone said convincingly.

Regarding the words of these fans, the real fans smiled knowingly and did not refute them.

As Bell and Ronaldo returned from injury in time, Real Madrid was able to make the most of their main force.

In the pre-match news interview, the reporter interviewed Ronaldo, Benzema and Bell: "For this game, how many goals do you think you can score?"

"I watched the video of Leverkusen and Atletico Madrid, and I know their goalkeeper is very good, but I will score goals." Ronaldo said.

"I don't need me to score goals. My job is not to score goals." These are the words of Benzema.

"I played against Jose and he was good, but we are a team," Bell said.

Real Madrid's BBC team is very confident.

Of course, some reporters wanted to interview Jose, but Jose avoided him.

Although it is not a battle of the century, with Real Madrid's popularity, more than 6 million fans followed this game.

All major live chat rooms are full of bullet screens, all of which are "Go Ronaldo", "Go Magic Flute", "Go Bell" and so on.

Just as the major live broadcast commentators were talking, the starting lists of both sides were announced.

For the Leverkusen team, Toprak failed to enter the squad due to his yellow card suspension and was replaced by Papadopoulos.

Schmidt formed a 4231 formation with a balanced offense and defense. The specific list is as follows:
Goalkeeper: Jose.

Defenders: Wendell, Spahic, Papadopoulos, Hilbert.

Double defensive midfielders: Lars Bender, Castro.

Attacking forwards: Son Heung-min, Charhanoglu, Bellarabi.

Center: Keasling.

In addition, Delmic, Rolfes, Brandt, Donati, and Leno sat on the bench and obeyed Schmidt's dispatch at any time.

After two-thirds of the season, Leverkusen's starting list can be imagined without guessing.

As for Real Madrid, Ancelotti has formed a very aggressive 433 formation, the specific list is as follows:
Goalkeeper: Iker Casillas.

Defenders: Marcelo, Ramos, Varane, Carvajal.

Midfielders: Rodriguez, Kroos, Modric.

Forwards: C-Ronaldo, Benzema, Bell.

In addition, Navas, Pepe, Arbeloa, Khedira, Isco and others are also sitting on the bench.

Real Madrid's lineup is not insignificant, and the value of the players alone is nearly twice that of Leverkusen.

This game, no matter how you look at it, will be a unilateral massacre by Real Madrid.

As for Leverkusen having home court advantage?
In the face of absolute strength, the so-called home field advantage is as fragile as a paper tiger.
