Champion’s Heart

Schalke 04, who lost Yang Muge, was tied 1:1 by Mainz at home in the twentieth round of the league.

Mönchengladbach played 0-0 with Wolfsburg on the road.

Bayern Munich also held a 1:1 hands-off with Hamburg.

For a time, all three teams in the first group were tied.

Only Dortmund, the upward momentum is still very strong, as strong as the man's morning.

They defeated Nuremberg 2-0 away.

Dortmund scored forty-seven points, widening the gap with Bayern Munich, Bayern Munich forty-one points, Schalke 04 forty-one points, Mönchengladbach forty points.

Although Zhou Yi had no assists in the game, he had a goal.

His condition is also very strong.

He was replaced shortly after scoring.

Klopp didn't let him play the whole game because he considered that there was another German Cup next.

Three days later, Dortmund challenged Keril 1900 away.

It can be seen from the name that this is a team founded in 1900, has a long history, is older than Dortmund's age-Dortmund was founded in 1909.

But a long history doesn't mean good results.

At present, the name of the league in which this team is located is called German Northern League, the full name of the Northern German League.

The German League is divided into seven levels, the following German League is the amateur league, and German North League is under the German League. In other words, the opponent that Dortmund encountered in the quarter-finals of the German Cup was an amateur team.

Nevertheless, Klopp did not dare to underestimate this team.

Because they are able to kill the quarterfinals of the German Cup all the way, they have strength. In order to be able to appear in front of Dortmund in 1900, Kyleil eliminated all opponents that were stronger than them.

In the first round, they defeated the second place of the second division Cottbus 3-0. In the second round, they eliminated Duisburg in the second place in the second place at 2:0. In the third round, the team they eliminated was replaced by Mainz in the Bundesliga, 2:0!

In three German Cup matches, this amateur team scored seven goals but did not concede a goal.

Such performances cannot but attract Klopp's attention.

Cups have always been a hotbed of upsets, and underestimating opponents will pay a heavy price.

Therefore, in the face of this cup opponent, Klopp did not send the second team to deal with it. Although he has carried out some rotations, he still retains most of the main force.

Zhou Yi is naturally the core that cannot be rotated.

And Zhou Yi also proved that he was indeed the guarantee of Dortmund's victory.

On the away side, the black horse Kyrill 1900, which counterattacked many teams all the way, Dortmund led by two goals in the first half.

Zhou Yi assisted a goal, he also scored a goal.

Dortmund scored two more goals in the second half and eventually eliminated the dark horse with a score of 4:0.

Ended the journey of Keril 1900 in the German Cup.

And this is the best result of Keril 1900 participating in the German Cup since the 2002-2003 season.

If it weren’t for Dortmund who had overturned the boat in the gutter and ate a bit, maybe their dark horse miracle could go one step further...

In the 21st round of the league, Bayern Munich beat Kaiserslautern 2:0 at home. Dortmund defeated Leverkusen 1-0 at home.

There was a direct dialogue between the last two of the first group, Mönchengladbach vs. Schalke 04.

As a result, Royce scored a goal and an assist to help Mönchengladbach beat Schalke 04 at home 3:0.

Despite Yang Muge's efforts in the game, there is still no way to save the team's defeat. Royce's breakthrough on the wing was too sharp, he was helpless, and as a midfielder, he couldn't always go to the wing one-on-one with Royce.

The outcome of this game changed the league's third and fourth rankings.

Monchengladbach forty-three points over forty-one points Schalke 04, became third, and Schalke 04 fell.

After reaching a transfer agreement with Dortmund in advance, Royce's status was hot, helping Mönchengladbach to catch up, and now they are only one point away from the second Bayern Munich in the league.

But know that the next stage of the Champions League knockout stage will begin.

Dortmund and Bayern Munich will definitely be distracted from the Champions League. For domestic leagues, their attention may not be so focused.

By then, it was an opportunity for Mönchengladbach.

Watching Royce's performance so outstanding, the fans of Monchengladbach increasingly did not want Royce to leave. But there is no way, the woods are done, Royce will eventually return to the team he has supported since childhood. Mönchengladbach is just a stop in the middle of his career...

The only thing they can look forward to now may be that Mönchengladbach, under the leadership of Royce, will eventually counterattack giants such as Bayern Munich and Dortmund, grab the league title from them, and bid farewell to Roy in an amazing season Sri Lanka.

This is not the whims of the fans of Mönchengladbach, they really think it is possible.

After all, the next is the Champions League.

For the German team, Bayern Munich is probably the only player who can maintain a two-line battle.

Dortmund won the league title last season, but their road to the Champions League stopped at the quarterfinals. If they continue to move forward in the Champions League at that time, it is hard to say whether they can still win the league title at the end.

Also take a look at this season also participated in the Champions League, and scored in the top 16 Leverkusen. Now they are ranked sixth, and they are very far behind Schalke 04 in the league. Leverkusen will not qualify for the Champions League next season.

The Champions League game is indeed approaching.

In the middle of next week, two Bundesliga teams, Dortmund and Leverkusen, will make their debut in the Champions League quarter-finals.

So in the 21st round of the league, Zhou Yi did not play the whole game, he was replaced in the 72nd minute.

Dortmund was leading the opponent 1:0 at the time, which was a very risky substitution. Because after Zhou Yi's end, Dortmund's midfield control will decline, one goal lead is too unsafe, it is impossible for Dortmund to fly three points in hand.

However, Klopp replaced Zhou Yi, because the next Champions League is also important, he does not allow Zhou Yi to get the most rest.

Fortunately, Dortmund withstood the opponent's offensive and finally won the game with a score of 1:0, which was finally not caught up by Bayern Munich.

This time Dortmund won another old opponent in the Champions League quarter-finals. Last season they met ac Milan in the quarter-finals.

At the time when the result of the draw was out, there was a burst of laughter on the spot.

I think this is too coincident, Dortmund and ac Milan met again, is it UEFA to create a new pair of opponents out?

After the draw results came out, the "Gazzetta dello Sport" could not wait to call out the slogan "revenge".

Ac Milan does have this confidence.

Last season, after being eliminated by Dortmund in the Champions League, ac Milan won the league title with a greater advantage in the league, ending Inter Milan's previous five consecutive league titles. When they finally won the championship, Inter Milan led the second place by as much as six points.

Their performance this season is also good.

In the twenty-three rounds of Serie A, they won 14 games, 5 draws and 4 losses, with 47 points. Juventus, who beat the same points with five goal difference goals, ranked first in the league ~ www.readwn.com ~ After buying Ibrahimovic from Barcelona, ​​he fell for several seasons Ac Milan seems to usher in a rise.

After his excellent performance and excellent state, he met the enemies Dortmund who saw them eliminated from the Champions League last season. Naturally, they were extremely jealous. This hatred can't be reported.

Ac Milan is in good shape this season, Klopp is not afraid to take it lightly, for this reason, he would rather give up a league, but also give Zhou Yi time to rest.

Fortunately, Dortmund finally won in the league.

They can deal with ac Milan without any effort.

Although ac Milan shouted the slogan of revenge, Klopp still hoped to add another "new hatred" to the "old hatred" of the two teams.

If ac Milan resent them because Dortmund eliminated them from the Champions League once, then resent it again.

Anyway, their resentment won't let Klopp lose a pound of meat... (to be continued.)
