Chapter 186

The best player of the game was Frey, who came off the bench. He made two shots and one pass, turning the tide and avoiding Dortmund's embarrassment at home.

No matter how beautiful Zhang Yuan's goal is, it can't match the importance of Frey. What makes Zhang Yuan most unhappy is not the best but the hateful draw, the useless draw!

Isn't it useless enough to be equalized by the opponent even with a 3-goal lead? !

After the game, he didn't accept anyone's interview, and went straight back to the locker room. The Schalke 04 players in the locker room were all depressed.

Digan didn't score another minute in this game, but he was not happy when the team lost. He walked to Zhang Yuan and comforted him in Italian: "Oh, buddy! This is football! Just forget it!"

"How can I forget, when I think about the advantage of three goals, I feel useless! Is it really him, damn it!" Zhang Yuan said fiercely, and he didn't know who he was scolding.

Digan didn't speak any more, and sat down beside Zhang Yuan.

The press conference outside was going on, and the coaches of both sides expressed their views on the game.

During the intermission, Klopp walked into the locker room with anger, but now he has indescribable satisfaction, and he praised his players lavishly.

"Facing the situation of falling behind by three goals, we showed courage and determination. Of course, we can't forget the fans at the scene. It was their support that allowed us to chase three goals in a row! We scored a point against a strong team like Schalke 04. Appreciate everyone's performance!"

Klopp did not deliberately talk about the hatred between the two teams. On the contrary, he praised Schalke 04 as a strong team.

Rutten expressed dissatisfaction on his side: "For the fans, this is a very dramatic hot derby. Naturally, I will not be happy, because we led 3-0 but did not finally get three points! In this game we There is so much to sum up!"

Captain Bolton fired at the referee again, "I think today's referee, Mr. Wagner, enforced a bad game. Our players got two red cards out of nowhere. It was these two red cards that caused us to fail to save three points! "

Well, slapping you in the face is hard enough!

Bolton made a big fuss, and the DFB Disciplinary Committee announced on the second day that it would investigate Bolton, and issued an investigation report and punishment results on the same day, which can be called vigorous and resolute!

Bolton was fined 20000 euros for insulting the referee during the game and will be banned for three games in the Bundesliga!

Bolton was really unlucky. He was too angry to whine. He didn't expect such serious consequences for himself!

In fact, if he hadn’t spoken out loudly at the press conference, Wagner would have dismissed his insulting behavior during the game and would not have reported it to the higher authorities in detail.

This time the derby was so lively that it made the German media lively for several days. Zhang Yuan’s long-distance attack goal was named the best goal of this round. best goal!

The Chinese fans were hooked, but Zhang Yuan himself had no special feeling, it was just a goal, and the useless draw made him depressed for a day or two.

Neuer called to comfort him and said to him: "Grandma, watch, let's welcome them at home! Give them a good look!"

Schalke 04 has no time to be sad. On the evening of September 9, they will usher in the first game of the Champions League group stage at home. The opponent is the Cypriot team Anorthosis.

So no matter how depressed they are, the players of Schalke 04 have to devote themselves to this preparation, and everyone wants to get off to a good start.

Anorthosis, the players of Schalke 04 don’t know much about it. The information in the hands of the coaching staff is limited. They are a semi-professional team. Many players in the team play part-time and full-time. There are not many, there is no way to be poor!

But it was such a team that broke through three rounds of play-offs and eliminated the Greek giants Olympiacos, and miraculously reached the Champions League group stage, which surprised many people.

In Group B, this is recognized as the weakest team, and it is a great opportunity for the other three teams to score points!

The fans of Schalke 04 were quite relaxed in the stands, with calm expressions, but when 90 minutes passed and the electronic screen in the field still displayed a dazzling 0:0, everyone's mood was not happy enough anyway.

Anorthosis has one thing to do throughout the game, which is to defend and defend again. A large part of the game is like a training session. One side defends desperately, and the other party desperately attacks. In the end, the shield is strong, Shar Gram 04's spear is broken!

Zhang Yuan was in a very bad state in this game. He couldn't explain why he was not good. His dribbling and shooting were not smooth, and his impatience was revealed again. opponent's gate.

Other players are not much better than him, so 0:0 in this game is a fair result!

In another game, Inter Milan beat Panathinaikos 2:0, so Inter Milan temporarily ranked first, Schalke 04 and Anorthosis ranked second and third with one point each, Panathinaikos Coase ranked bottom with zero points.

After failing to get off to a good start in the UEFA Champions League group stage, and facing the weakest opponent in the group, the German media began to bombard Schalke 04. Naturally, Rutten was the worst. Attracts the most artillery fire.

Of course, some media criticized Zhang Yuan for being the iron king in this game, eager for quick success and wasting a lot of offensive opportunities.

After the first round of the Champions League, Schalke 04 ushered in Frankfurt on September 9. This game was very difficult for Schalke 20. Ernst was suspended, Bolton was suspended, Pander was suspended, K Ristadjic was injured, Rutten could only use Digan on the defense line, and let Digan and Hewedes partner.

Maybe there are three battles in just one week, Schalke 04 continues to be in a bad state, Frankfurt created a lot of opportunities, but Degan still continued to perform miraculously after starting, partnering with Hewedes Many dangers were resolved, and in the end Rakitic assisted Asamoah to score a goal. Schalke 04 relied on this goal to win a small victory at home.

After this game, Schalke successfully returned to the top position with 04 points in 11, but they have just played four rounds of scores, and the points gap is definitely not obvious.

On September 9, the second round of the German Cup began. In the first round, Schalke 24 eliminated Houmburg 04:3. This round their opponent was Hannover. Zhang Yuan continued to start in this game, and his performance was not bad. Yes, an assist was completed, helping Schalke 0 eliminate Hannover 04:2.

On September 9th, Schalke 27 challenged Cologne in an away game. From the overall perspective of the previous rounds, Schalke 04 seems to be in good condition, but experts who have watched their games know that Schalke 04 is not in good condition .

On the one hand, since the team drew with Dortmund, the whole team seems to have fallen into a kind of impatience. The head coach Rutten is impatient, and the players are impatient. The more impatient they are, the more difficult they are to attack. Intensive, Schalke 04 is fighting on the third line. Due to injury and suspension, Rutten has little choice. If everyone guesses nothing unexpected, Rutten will definitely have the necessary rotation in this game.

As expected by the experts, Ruteng had a rotation in this game, and Zhang Yuan sat on the bench. Farfan had already rotated in the German Cup. Altintop and Kuranyi are still the starters.

On the defensive line, in view of Degan's good performance, he took the starting position for the third consecutive game. His partner is still Hewedes, and Pender also returned to the starting lineup.

In the midfield, Rutten still stubbornly used three defensive midfielders, Jones, Ernst and Westermann.

Cologne's own strength is limited. Since this season, it has only achieved one win, one draw and three losses. With 4 points, it ranks No. 13 and is only 2 points away from the relegation zone.

However, Cologne played at a very good level in this game. Schalke 04's midfield interception ability is more than enough, but creativity and organizational skills are not good enough. Cologne chose not to compete with Schalke 04 in midfield. Hit both sides.

In the first half they played a beautiful defensive counterattack. Romanian striker Radu scored a goal and led Schalke 04 at home.

In the 60th minute of the second half, Lu Teng sent Zhang Yuan on the field. Cologne played a defensive counterattack in the second half. It seemed that they had learned a lot of experience from Anorthosis. Zhang Yuan faced the dense crowd of Cologne. Defensively, the state is not good, and there are not many ways.

In the end, Schalke 04 lost this game away, and the ranking also dropped to fifth place. Counting this game, Zhang Yuan has not scored in 4 consecutive games in the Champions League, German Cup, and league. Goal shortage.
