Chapter 207 Concentrate on the league

It's a pity that it was eliminated from the Champions League, but Dortmund's fans are not too sad, because in fact, Dortmund's performance in the Champions League this season is already an unexpected surprise for them. ``They never thought that Dortmund could actually reach the Champions League quarter-finals before the season.

For these Dortmund supporters, the most important thing is the domestic league.

At his best performance this season, Dortmund once led his opponent by as much as ten in the league.

Later, with the start of the Champions League knockout round, Dortmund was clearly affected by the two-front battle.

Now they have only three points in the league.

And at this moment, Dortmund was eliminated in the Champions League.

Although it is a bad thing to eliminate the Champions League, for Dortmund today, it may be the right time to be eliminated...

The next 30th round of the league is very important for Dortmund. In fact, their own game is not very important. Dortmund faces Freiburg at home. As long as they perform normally, it is impossible for Freiburg to be upset.

The key is another game, Leverkusen will challenge Bayern Munich away, which is a contest between the second and fourth in the league.

For Dortmund, it is the so-called time when cranes and clams compete and fishermen gain profit.

Bayern Munich's home match with Leverkusen was on the same day as Dortmund's, but their match was two hours ahead of Dortmund's game.

Basically, after the match between Bayern Munich and Leverkusen was over, the match between Dortmund began.

So Dortmund players can know the result there before they play.

※※※

Although he competed very well with Real Madrid in the second round, Klopp still sent all the main players in this game, and he would not allow any mistakes.

When Dortmund players arrived at West**** Stadium, the match between Bayern Munich and Leverkusen had already begun. With a goal, Leverkusen's midfielder Rolfs scored an own goal, helping Bayern Munich lead Leverkusen with one goal.

In the 28th minute, Bayern Munich center Gomez scored, while Bayern Munich led Leverkusen with two goals.

This good news made Dortmund players relax when warming up, and everyone talked and laughed while discussing the game there.

Finally, before Dortmund appeared, Bayern Munich defeated Leverkusen 5:1 at home.

As long as Dortmund can beat Freiburg, it can widen the gap between them and Leverkusen to six points.

With only four rounds left in the league, this point gap is much safer than three-pointers.

Dortmund did not disappoint the opportunities created by Bayern Munich. They defeated Freiburg 3-0 at their home court, and Zhou Yi contributed an assist in the game.

In the next 31st round of the league, Leverkusen defeated Hoffenheim 2-1 at home. Three hours later, Dortmund's away game against Borussia Mönchengladbach began.

In this game, Zhou Yi sent another assist, helping Dortmund defeat Borussia Mönchengladbach 2-1 away and continue to maintain a six-point lead against Leverkusen.

In this way, with three rounds left in the league, as long as Dortmund wins in the next round, they can basically announce that they will win the championship in advance.

Because the Bundesliga does not first look at the results of the two sides' matches when the points are the same, but directly compares the goal difference and the number of goals. Even if Dortmund loses in the last two rounds of the league, Leverkusen wins, tie the points.

Then there is also a huge gap between the two sides in goal difference.

At present, after the 31st round of the league, Dortmund has 44 goals, how many Leverkusen has? Twenty-one, a total of 23 goals!

It is almost impossible for Leverkusen to make up for this gap in the remaining three league rounds.

Dortmund's chance of losing with big scores in the last two rounds is too low...

Sure enough, after no longer being the constraints of the Champions League, Dortmund could devote himself to the league and burst out with huge energy.

It makes competitors almost incompetent.

At 9:30 pm on April 30th, Beijing time, in the 32nd round of the Bundesliga, Dortmund faced Nuremberg at home. At the same time, Leverkusen challenged Cologne away.

These two games will determine the ownership of the league championship this season.

China Central Television chose to live broadcast Dortmund vs. Nuremberg on the free sports channel, while live broadcasting Leverkusen away challenge Cologne on the paid Fengyun Football Channel.

In an hour, Zhou Jianliang had already done the preparation work, and all the teacups and kettles were placed on the coffee table, but others did not guard the TV, but went to various community forums in front of the computer to see what everyone thinks about the game and what they think about Zhou Yi.

Seeing those Zhou Yi fans expressing various emotions to Zhou Yi online, Zhou Jianliang felt very happy.

Because they all praise their own sons.

Since Zhou Yi became famous, Zhou Jianliang has gradually developed this habit because he can no longer satisfy him because he just reads the newspaper. Since he found out that there are posts on the Internet that praise his son, he has been like a fish like a sea, wandering in the ocean of "Zhou Biao".

Judging from the online feedback, basically no one thinks that Dortmund will capsize in the gutter of the home court.

There is no suspense about winning this game.

In the locker room, Klopp was saying to his players who were obviously overly excited: "Relax, boys. This is actually an ordinary game. Don't think too much. If you really want to think too much, I suggest you wait until the game is over before thinking. I promise that I will never throw cold water on you at that time."

What Klopp was worried about was that the players were so proud after they came on the court, and then they were not in the game at all, and they were in no shape, and eventually lost to Nuremberg at home.

Many teams will perform a little ups and downs when they approach the championship, let alone a young team like Dortmund.

They have never had any experience in winning the league...

In this team, only the old captain Sebastian Kyle and Dede have had experience in winning the Bundesliga championship. It was still the distant 2001-2002 season, which has been nine years since then. The long time is enough to make Kyle and Dede forget the feeling of winning the championship...

After the game began, Dortmund's players did not perform normally.

In the first half an hour, Dortmund failed to score. In the 28th minute, Mark was too excited and moved too much in defense and received a yellow card.

The good news is that there is no goal in the match between Leverkusen and Cologne.

At this time, Dortmund actually lacks one goal. As long as there is a goal, everyone's mentality can be restored to normal and the game can be put on track.

But when will the goal appear?

In the 32nd minute, Dortmund took the ball outside the penalty area in Nuremberg, and the football fell to Zhou Yi's feet.

Zhou Yi passed the football directly to Mark, and then he stepped forward, and signaled Mark to pass the football back.

Mark leaned against the Nuremberg player who was defending him, and then drove the football sideways.

Zhou Yi received the ball from the penalty area line. He made a move to shoot, but he deceived Nuremberg's defender Pernola, and gently pushed the ball outward with his left foot, flashed the ball through the opponent, and entered the penalty area!

"Zhou Yi!! Beautiful!" Marcel Lef shouted excitedly. The south stand of West**** Stadium also sounded loudly, and the cheers were very loud, because the Nuremberg goal was just below the south stand!

After dodging Penora, Zhou Yi dribbled the ball into the penalty area. Facing the Nuremberg players who rushed up, he did not choose to pass the football to anyone, but shot by himself!

He swung his right foot sideways and kicked the football!

Judging from this action, Zhou Yi wanted to kick the football to the far corner. He was very good at scoring this way. When scoring against Real Madrid, he almost seemed to score in the same way. He rubbed an inner spinning curve with the inside of his right foot, then bypassed the defender, bypassed the goalkeeper's fingers, and finally turned into the far corner of the goal.

So Nuremberg goalkeeper Shaffer saw Zhou Yi's body falling backwards, and expected that Zhou Yi would definitely be rushing to the far corner this time, and he moved his center of gravity to the far end.

But when Zhou Yi shot the football, he was not the rubbing shot on the inside of his foot, but the volley of his feet!

The football was pulled to the near corner by him, and the speed was very fast!

Nuremberg goalkeeper Shaffer wanted to turn around the center of gravity and pounce on the corner at this time, but it was too late... He could only froze in place and watch the football fly into the goal he guarded...
