Of course, Yang Muge would not hope that Schalke 04 will lose the game in order to allow himself to play in the first team. Although he is not a "Thirty Years Fan of Schalke 04", since he came to Schalke 04's youth training camp, he has regarded this team as his home team.

It is normal for him to hope that his home team will perform well.

If you want the team to lose if you can't play in Schalke 04, it would be too boring.

If you can't play the game, you can choose to rent it out and save the country on a curve, but you don't have to curse your boss.

So when the game started, Yang Muge stood firmly on Schalke 04's side and cheered for his team.

This time, he didn't go to the scene because it was Dortmund's home court, so it was not easy for him to get tickets.

He watched the game in front of the TV in his rented apartment.

The figure of his friend Draxler flashed by in the TV broadcasting camera - Draxler was selected into the roster in this game.

In fact, long before this game, during the winter break training, Draxler had been transferred to the first team by Magath to train with the team. Draxler also seized the opportunity and performed well in the training camp, thus successfully staying in the first team.

Before this game, he had played three times for Schalke 04's first team, one starter and two substitutes.

On the way to the first team, Draxler led Yang Muge.

Hao Junmin also appeared on the bench in this game. Perhaps his outstanding performance in the Asian Cup touched Magath. This stubborn German old man finally planned to give Hao Junmin some chances...

Dortmund, who played at home, launched a fierce offensive against Schalke 04's goal from the beginning of the game, and the cheers of Dortmund fans in the south stands resounded throughout the sky.

The one who promoted these offensives in Dortmund was Zhou Yi, who returned to the team.

For Schalke 04, the reason why they are confident of defeating Dortmund away is that Zhou Yi and Shinji Kagawa, two main players, have just ended the Asian Cup and have persisted until the end. It has only been half a week since they returned to the team. They are probably not ready for both physical condition and mentality.

No one can say what level they can perform in the intense Ruhr derby.

The main thing is fatigue. After experiencing almost a month of secret competitions, both Zhou Yi and Shinji Kagawa should be very tired.

But when the game started, everyone soon discovered that at least Zhou Yi was not very prominent in his fatigue...

His performance is better than Shinji Kagawa.

It can be clearly seen that Shinji Kagawa's pace is not as strong as before. Some balls he should have caught up with, but he did not catch up in the end. This must be because of insufficient muscle strength, resulting in a decrease in explosive power and a decrease in endurance.

Zhou Yi's running was as always.

Of course, there are many reasons for this. On the one hand, Zhou Yi is an organizational midfielder. He does not need to sprint as frequently as Shinji Kagawa, and constantly start and accelerate. Many of his runnings are jogging, and there are not many sprints, and even if there is a distance, it is relatively short.

Another reason is that in the Asian Cup, Zhou Yi played one less game than Kagawa. Because of the red card in the semi-finals, Zhou Yi did not participate in the finals. He entered the rest stage from the semi-finals on January 25th, and he has been resting until today, and it has been almost ten days.

The physical fitness is much better than everyone imagined, and Zhou Yi's performance is naturally beyond Schalke 04's expectations.

Because I didn't expect Zhou Yi to have such good physical fitness, their control over Zhou Yi's running range was naturally not so tight.

Allow Zhou Yi to move freely within a relatively relaxed range.

This caused great trouble to Schalke 04.

Driven by Zhou Yi's engine, Dortmund continuously launched a fierce attack on Schalke 04's goal.

The game only took 30 minutes to go, Dortmund had nine shots, while Schalke 04 had only four shots.

This is a rare situation in the Ruhr derby, which should be evenly matched.

From this data, it can also be seen that Schalke 04's defense against Zhou Yi did not do well...

In the 39th minute, Dortmund finally broke the deadlock. Zhou Yi launched an attack from the backcourt. After three passes, the football fell to Gotze's feet. The young genius shot without hesitation, and the football penetrated the goal guarded by Neuer.

"Getze!! Dortmund took the lead!" Marcel Lef shouted excitedly. "In this game, Dortmund seemed to have wiped out the decline of the previous games. They were well organized in the offense. Look at the attack just now, Zhou Yi, Mark Wagner, Shinji Kagawa, and finally passed to Gotze's feet, and Gotze completed the shot. From back to front, from the middle to the side and then to the middle, the route is very clear! And this is the result of Zhou Yi's return!"

He Ping also has the same view as Marcel Leif. Although Gotze scored, the initiator of this offense was Zhou Yi, and not just this attack, but the previous offenses that did not score goals also had a very close relationship with Zhou Yi.

For Dortmund, Zhou Yi's return means that everyone knows clearly what they should do on the court.

Dortmund's players obviously knew this, so after Gotze scored, although he immediately went to Shinji Kagawa to celebrate, he did not forget to hook back and signal Zhou Yi to come up quickly and everyone to celebrate together.

Zhou Yi and Mark ran up together, and the four of them hugged each other.

This is the four-player team of Dortmund's frontcourt attack formation.

The three players who are not very tall and are not very strong in their bodies have formed the most sharp offensive combination in the Bundesliga.

So far, Dortmund has scored 43 goals in 20 games, making it the team with the most goals in the Bundesliga. This shows the power of these four teams.

After Dortmund took the lead, Schalke 04 was a little impatient. They received two yellow cards in the 41st and 44th minutes, forward Hunter Larl and defender Schmitz.

All are caused by excessive movements in defense.

This is obviously a manifestation of psychological imbalance.

Fortunately, there is not much time left in the first half, otherwise Schalke 04's players will collapse sooner or later if they continue to develop like this.

Now, they can also use the halftime break to make some adjustments to calm the players' brains.

It can be said that the referee's whistle at the end of the first half saved Schalke 04.

But in fact, Schalke 04 struggled for a while...

The two sides changed sides and fought again in the second half. In the 66th minute, Groschloitz scored another goal for Dortmund, rewriting the score to 2:0.

At Dortmund's home court, they led Schalke 04 with two goals, and there was no suspense in this game.

Although Schalke 04 is very similar to pulling Dortmund off the top throne of the league, the gap in the state and strength of the two teams this season is still very obvious.

Dortmund has found the right path, while Schalke 04 is still looking for their own path...

Yang Muge, who saw the ball lost in front of the TV, shook his head. Schalke 04's midfielder's control over Zhou Yi was too loose. Maybe they wanted to tighten it, but they couldn't get it tight.

Seeing that his team was about to lose to Zhou Yi again, Yang Muge was in a bad mood.

After leading two goals, Klopp began to make substitution adjustments.

Shinji Kagawa was replaced by Kuba in the 70th minute.

Zhou Yi was replaced by Lewandowski in the 77th minute.

Seeing that Klopp replaced Zhou Yi and Shinji Kagawa, Magath also quickly made a substitution adjustment.

Hao Junmin came on as a substitute in the 80th minute, replaced midfielder Jurado, and finally stopped playing as a full-back...

Hao Junmin still performed very hard and positively after he came on the court, but at this time the entire Schalke 04 had lost his fighting spirit.

Logically speaking, after Zhou Yi is out, Dortmund's midfield control will decline, which should be Schalke 04's opportunity. Magath's substitution is also under such considerations.

But Schalke 04's performance was not positive enough.

Schalke 04 did play too badly this season. It seems that participating in the Champions League may not be a good thing for them. Entering the Champions League stage before they are ready will make people lose their minds.

Schalke 04 introduced the Champions League top scorer from Real Madrid this summer and also introduced a Dutch center like Hunteral.

What's the result?

The performance in the Champions League was acceptable, but the league was completely defeated.

Is it more worth fighting for the Champions League, or is the league more important?

Different teams and different coaches have different choices, but one thing must be clear - unless Schalke 04 wins this season's Champions League title, it will be too difficult for them to participate in the Champions League next season...

In the 88th minute, Draxler was replaced and replaced Dutch center Hunterlaer.

However, there is not much time left for the young player.

In the 93rd minute of the game, referee Weiner blew the whistle to the end of the game.

The normal Ruhr derby between Dortmund and Schalke 04 has a very loud name, but this game is somewhat unworthy.

Compared to the Ruhr derby in the first half of the league, Dortmund won it so easily - this is probably the easiest Ruhr derby in recent years...

After the game, Zhou Yi went on the court to celebrate the victory with his teammates and thanked the fans.
Chapter completed!
