Dortmund and RB Leipzig are old rivals.

In this season's Bundesliga, Dortmund and RB Leipzig have played against each other twice.

Dortmund has 1 win and 1 draw, which can be said to be a relatively good record against RB Leipzig.

And for Dortmund, these two games are a reversal after falling behind.

Especially on April 3rd not long ago. The 28th round of the Bundesliga that just ended was played by Dortmund at home against RB Leipzig.

In that game, RB Leipzig also brought great pressure to Dortmund.

But fortunately, after the adjustment of personnel and formation.

Lin Jie helped Dortmund to equalize the score tenaciously when he changed to play as a right winger.

This also enabled Dortmund to continue to maintain the same points as Bayern in the standings.

And with the advantage of winning and losing, it firmly occupies the top position!

And it was this match with RB Leipzig that made Mark Ross see Lin Jie's hot performance as a right winger.

This was also an important change for Dortmund to advance to the semi-finals in the Champions League quarter-finals against Manchester United.

For Dortmund, RB Leipzig is actually a blessing.

But on the other hand, for RB Leipzig, Dortmund is a living victim!

In these two games, RB Leipzig was reversed by Dortmund when it had all the advantages.

But fortunately for RB Leipzig, they are also growing steadily in these two games!

In the first game, Lin Jie's magic ball was killed at the last moment.

But in the second game, Lin Jie's final header only equalized the game, but did not kill it!

For the players of RB Leipzig, they will definitely not give Dortmund a chance to reverse in this game!

This game is the moment for them to prove themselves!

They have already prepared for this game for 18 days, as they have no desire in the league!

It can be said that after the game on April 3 was equalized by Lin Jie.

RB Leipzig has been planning how to target Dortmund in this game!

For this game, the players of RB Leipzig have also made sufficient preparations.

As for Dortmund, Mark Ross's idea for this game is still the same as the last time he played against RB Leipzig.

That is to win this game as soon as possible!

Last time, because of the 31st round of the Bundesliga on April 24, 3 days later, they need to go to the Allianz Arena to adjust Bayern away!

This game basically determines who between Dortmund and Bayern can win the Bundesliga championship this season!

For Dortmund, as long as they draw, they can continue to hold the initiative of the Bundesliga championship.

In the last three rounds of games, as long as they don't lose the chain, they can win the Bundesliga championship again after 10 years!

But obviously, with the Champions League already eliminated, Bayern's attention to this game must have increased infinitely!

So as Dortmund's head coach Marco Rose has also made plans.

If RB Leipzig still leads in advance in this game, or even leads by a large score.

Then he decided to strategically give up this German Cup semi-final!

Although Dortmund completed the reversal in the two consecutive games against RB Leipzig.

But this is too risky!

You must know that after Dortmund plays Bayern, they still need to play the Champions League semi-finals, facing Manchester City!

The schedule can be said to be full, and the players' physical fitness is also limited.

So for Dortmund at present, they must make some choices and cannot have everything.

If they continue to insist when the situation is not good at the end of this game.

It is very likely to affect the subsequent confrontation with Bayern!

It may even directly lead to the collapse of Dortmund's overall situation in the future!

Losing the big for the small, picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons!

There is no doubt that the German Cup champion is not comparable to the Bundesliga champion and the Champions League.

"Okay! Dear viewers, welcome to watch the semi-finals of the 21/22 German Football Association Cup!"

"RB Leipzig will face Dortmund at the Red Bull Arena!"

"I am your old friend Zhan Jun! This game will still be explained by me, Coach Zhang and Sun Jihai!"

It is still a classic opening statement.

The discussion before the game is still about the depth of Dortmund players and the devil's schedule.

The three commentators all hope that Dortmund can continue to maintain the momentum of the dark horse.

The three commentators are also very clear about this game.It is a bit useless for Dortmund.

Because the value of the German Cup is indeed a little lower.

So the focus of this game is whether Dortmund's state continues the previous hot state.

Seeing that the time is almost up, Zhan Jun also ended the pre-match chat and began to announce the starting list of both sides.

"RB Leipzig, who is playing at home, has adjusted its lineup again today!"

"The formation has also changed to 3-1-4-2!"

"The goalkeeper position is the national goalkeeper from Hungary, Peter Gulacsi!"

"The three defenders are: Mohammed Simakan, Willy Orban, and Josko Gvardiol!"

"Single defensive midfielder Konrad Laimer!"

"The four midfielders are: Nordi Mukiele, Dani Olmo, Dominik Soboslai, Anjini Oh!"

"The two forwards are: Christophe Nkunku and Andre Silva"

"The overall lineup of RB Leipzig has not changed much from 18 days ago."

"It seems that RB Leipzig coach Domenico Tedesco is quite satisfied with the performance of this lineup!"

"Okay, let's look at Dortmund next. Marco Rose also made a change tonight!"

"The lineup has also changed from the most familiar 4-3-3 formation to 4-2-4. "" It seems that Malco Ross wants to make a quick decision! " Mels, Thomas Munye! "" Ediel Witzer's partner Zude Belinsham formed the third middle field. Time will still retrieve a position of a two-striker. "" So good, let's wait and see. In this game, Dortmund's 4-2-4 can play in this game! " Finally, as the captain, Reus had good luck tonight!

Dortmund guessed the direction correctly again after a month and got the chance to kick off first.

The players on the field of Dortmund are also very clear about this game and the pressure of the overall schedule.

And they were at a disadvantage in the two consecutive games against RB Leipzig.

Basically, it can be said that the players in this starting lineup were controlled by RB Leipzig players in the early stage.

So in this game, they are also the same as RB Leipzig, wanting to get back on track.

As the starting players, they naturally want to prove that their performance is not worse than the substitutes!

There is no reason that they can't beat the starters, and every time they are reversed by the substitutes!

And after the last game with Leipzig, Nkunku took the initiative to find Lin Jie and said that they would not have the chance to reverse next time.

Lin Jie's reply was also very straightforward, and Lin Jie also believed that there would be no next reversal.

Because they will crush with strength in advance in this game, and will not give RB Leipzig the opportunity to lead again!

And naturally, tonight is the time for Lin Jie to practice this answer!

"Beep!!!"

With the referee's whistle, the game started!

At the moment of hearing the whistle, Lin Jie once again sounded like the starting gun of a 100-meter race, and flew out like an arrow from a string!

Obviously, once again coming to the right winger position, Lin Jie wanted to replicate the attack at the beginning of the second half of the first round with Manchester United!

Lin Jie wanted to make another blitz at the beginning!

But RB Leipzig had already understood Lin Jie's intention after seeing Lin Jie's position when he kicked off!

With Manchester United's previous mistakes, RB Leipzig will naturally not make mistakes easily!

Although RB Leipzig was obviously a little surprised that Dortmund changed to 4-2-4 right away.

But not long ago, they were finally equalized by Dortmund's formation, and RB Leipzig also had a plan for this.

The players of RB Leipzig are the most aware of the threat of Lin Jie playing as a right winger.

Sopo Sloy and Anginho retreated at the same time, building the first line of defense against Lin Jie's wing breakthrough in advance!

Laimer, the single defensive midfielderEr also immediately moved towards their left defense line, which was the direction where Lin Jie was breaking through.

And the three central defenders all retreated at the first time, ready to meet Lin Jie's attack.

With the overall formation of RB Leipzig shrinking, Lin Jie knew that he could no longer create too many good opportunities with his own attack.

And at this time, Dortmund's formation was still in the process of gradually advancing because the ball had just kicked off.

Because of his speed, Lin Jie was the first to rush to the front of RB Leipzig's penalty area.

Dortmund's other offensive players in the frontcourt were not fully in place.

Although Lin Jie was quite confident in his dribbling skills and [agile dribbling].

But as the saying goes, two fists can't beat four hands.

At present, Lin Jie was the only one near RB Leipzig's penalty area. Facing so many defensive players of RB Leipzig, he might be intercepted.

At this time, Dortmund's formation was advancing towards RB Leipzig's half.

Counterattack after being intercepted is quite deadly!

Moreover, Lin Jie was in the penalty area of ​​RB Leipzig at this time, and it was too late to return to defense!

Not to mention that RB Leipzig's counterattack itself was also very sharp, and Nkunku, who was waiting in the frontcourt, had also performed very well recently!

So Lin Jie had no particularly good chance except for long shots.

But RB Leipzig's three-center-back system made RB Leipzig's penalty area still have a lot of people.

Lin Jie's long shots did not have particularly good space.

So seeing RB Leipzig so cautiously guarding against the kick-off kill on his side, Lin Jie was not in a hurry to force an attack to find an opportunity, but controlled the ball under his feet.

At this time, Lin Jie had advanced to a position more than ten meters in front of the RB Leipzig penalty area.

Lin Jie controlled the player under his feet, looked sideways at the running position of his teammates, and the position of the RB Leipzig defensive players.

After waiting for a while, feeling that the time was almost up, Lin Jie did not stay.

Facing Soboslai who took the initiative to defend, Lin Jie suddenly dribbled the ball, and a beautiful man-ball split directly ate Soboslai alive!

He launched an attack on RB Leipzig's defense again!

Fortunately, Soboslai is just a midfielder, and his defensive ability is average. He is strong in offense.

So the wing defender Anginho behind Soboslai had already prepared for defense.

Lin Jie had already appeared, and Anginho immediately stepped forward to block Lin Jie's continued breakthrough.

But obviously, with the blessing of [Soaring Clouds and Driving Mist], Lin Jie's burst speed far exceeded Anginho's calculation.

Lin Jie once again passed the second line of defense with his speed!

But at this time, Lin Jie no longer had the [Soaring Clouds and Driving Mist] skill!

At this time, Lin Jie still wanted to continue to break through and had to face RB Leipzig's central defender defense!

And at this time, Gvardiol had already pushed out in advance, blocking Lin Jie's space to hit the bottom line!

Orban moved towards Gvardiol's original defensive direction, blocking the angle of Lin Jie's long-range shot!

Laimer blocked Lin Jie's cut-in route at the top of the penalty area!

Behind Lin Jie, Anginho was chasing back, and at this time RB Leipzig carefully left a circle for Lin Jie!

But Lin Jie also knew that his speed and burst were not omnipotent.

And the head coach of RB Leipzig was not a fool. He gave Lin Jie the opportunity to easily break through the defense line after Manchester United suffered a loss.

After passing Anginho.

Lin Jie, who was originally rushing towards the bottom line, directly knocked the ball with his back foot at the corner of RB Leipzig's penalty area and changed direction!

Then he started to cut in horizontally!

Successfully avoided Anginho who was chasing behind him, and tricked Gvardiol out!

But this is RB Leipzig's circle!

Laimer is waiting at the top of the penalty area!

After seeing Lin Jie's horizontal cut, Laimer also rushed up immediately, trying to stop Lin Jie from cutting in!

And Orban in the penalty area was pulled out because of Gvardiol, so the focus of defense was on Lin Jie at this time!

Looking at the RB Leipzig defense that had been fully mobilized, Lin Jie's mouth corners slightly raised!

He didn't think of getting this ball himself!

After waiting for Haaland's run for a while, Lin Jie rushed to the right foot before Laimer arrived and kicked a cross with the outside of the foot!

[Ding Dong! Congratulations to the host for activating the skill, the king of the outside of the foot! Greatly improve the accuracy of this pass! ]

The speed of Lin Jie's pass was not fast, but the angle was perfect!

In addition, the attention of the RB Leipzig defense was on Lin Jie at this time.

Haaland's forward run was not blocked at all.

WhichI was afraid that Orban would find out the situation and wanted to retreat to his position, but it was too late.

Haaland jumped high and slammed his head hard!

The football flew towards RB Leipzig's goal!

Goalkeeper Gulacsi didn't have time to make any saves.

GOOOOOOAL!!!

1:0!

Dortmund changed their previous state against RB Leipzig and took the lead at the start!
