After the game, Dortmund was dissatisfied with the victory of this game. Leverkusen, who lost the game, was even more dissatisfied. They thought Zhou Yi was a fake fall, or even if it was a real fall, it was too exaggerated. It had obvious performance elements. The referee was successfully deceived by his acting skills. In addition, the media supporting Leverkusen criticized Dortmund for being a despicable villain without professional ethics.

Leverkusen's fierce criticism naturally aroused dissatisfaction among Dortmund.

Dortmund media started a verbal battle with each other.

What about Zhou Yi, one of the parties involved?

He had already answered this question after the game, so he refused to answer the relevant questions, just telling those who think he was a fake fall and it would be better to watch the replay of the game video. If they still insisted that they were a fake fall, he gave two suggestions: one, go to the ophthalmology department; the other, go to the brain nerves to see if there is any problem in the brain.

Although Zhou Yi said he would not respond, the tone of this response was actually very strong.

Because Zhou Yi was relatively tactful when he wanted to argue with others in the past, he wanted to say that there was almost no situation in which someone had a problem with his brain.

The media analyzed that this shows that Zhou Yi was under great pressure and was not in good mood.

Dortmund's situation is so bad now that he, as the core, is naturally highly expected. In this game, Dortmund defeated Leverkusen with two goals from him. So what about? What about the away game Galatasaray? Everyone's hope is placed on him. This invisible pressure will naturally make people feel painful over time.

After the game, the injuries about Sven Bend and Shahin also came out, which is also the most concerned issue for everyone.

Sven Bend's right ankle ligament strain and a damaged tendon will definitely miss Dortmund's last round of group stage with Galatasaray next week. As for when it will recover, Dr. Braun did not give a definite answer.

Shahin, on the other hand, had a crack on the lateral ligament of his right ankle and was not as serious as Sven Bend, but it was hard to say when he could play. He might be able to play in the game against Galatasaray.

At the same time, at this critical moment, the latest situation of Gundogan's injury recovery has also emerged - Dortmund officially confirmed that Gundogan will be reimbursed this season and will completely miss all the remaining games this season...

The team's four midfielders are now injured by three, which is really a worse situation for Dortmund.

The only good news may be that Gundogan's contract renewal negotiations can finally continue. Perhaps because of his serious injury, Real Madrid backed off on the introduction of Gundogan, which made Gundogan give up his fantasy of transferring to join Real Madrid and decided to negotiate a contract renewal with Dortmund.

Because there are so many topics in this game between Dortmund and Leverkusen, no one has raised the topic of the showdown between Son Heung-min and Zhou Yi after the game.

Originally, this topic was the most fierce hype by the Korean media. As a result, Son Heung-min lost to Zhou Yi in the game. Both the team and the individual were defeated by Zhou Yi. The Korean media naturally had no interest and motivation to hype a failure. They even tried hard to downplay the "Asian derby" after the game.

Chinese media are now thinking about Yan Min’s red card, so naturally they don’t have the intention to follow up on the “confrontation” between Zhou Yi and Son Heung-min.

Regarding whether Yan Min should not be given a red card, Chinese media raised objections to the referee clearly. They believed that although Yan Min went up to stand up for Zhou Yi, he maintained full restraint and did not take action. On the contrary, he was a victim in the conflict - he was pushed away by the opponent's player - why should he give him a yellow card, and then cause the two yellows to turn and one red to be sent out?

After the game, the Chinese media criticized the referee of this game one-sidedly, on the one hand, because his penalty in the game was too loose, and on the other hand, it was Yan Min's controversial red card.

In addition to scolding the referee, Chinese fans are also worried that this red card will interrupt Yan Min's upward momentum in Dortmund. Since playing at home, everyone can see that Yan Min's position in Dortmund is becoming more and more important. He used to be unable to even enter the roster, but now every game is on the roster. Hoffman, a young player who performed well at the beginning of the season, was squeezed out of the roster by Yan Min.

Although most of the time it is still on the bench, as long as it comes on the bench, it will perform well and often determine the outcome of the game. If you continue to play like this, everyone believes that he will start stably. By then, there will be two Chinese players in the starting lineup of Dortmund. How amazing is this.

As a result, Yan Min was suspended from the red card.

In addition to being suspended for one game, everyone is also worried that Yan Min's temper will be exposed behind this red card, and whether it will affect his evaluation in the Dortmund coaching staff...

Yan Min's second yellow card was very unfair, but his first yellow card was considered by many people to be self-proclaimed - the very dangerous tackle at that time was actually unnecessary and too impulsive. If there was no such yellow card, even if the referee was wrongly accused by the referee, Ye would not be sent off.

The previous flying shovel proved that Yan Min was not able to control his emotions and temper.

In fact, Chinese fans' demands for Yan Min are getting higher and higher without realizing it. When they think so, they all ignore that Yan Min is actually a young man who is only 21 years old. Isn't impulsive and reckless just what he should behave in his age group?

Perhaps it is because of the image Zhou Yi gives to everyone, which makes everyone think that young people aged 21 or 2 should be like Zhou Yi.

If you calm down and think about it objectively, you will find that without Yan Min's flying tackle foul, how could Leverkusen get the offensive opportunity of a free kick in the frontcourt? How could Dortmund get the opportunity to counterattack immediately? Without this counterattack, how could he get that penalty?

So in fact, they are all linked together, and it is impossible to lack any of them.

There were many troubles in the outside world, but Klopp didn't have so much time to play a verbal battle. From the league to the Champions League group stage, there was only four days. He not only had to think about the arrangement in advance, but also had to conduct targeted training, leaving Dortmund with little time.

Sven Bend definitely can't play, and Shahin is not sure... Klopp crossed out Shahin's name on paper and just pretend he can't play.

In this case, Dortmund can actually use only one midfielder, Sebastian Kyle, the team's old captain.

Dortmund has been playing double midfielders before. Last season, Sven Bend and Gundogan were injured this season. After Gundogan was injured this season, Sven Bend and Shahin were both effective. Shahin was in good condition this season, making people temporarily forget about Gundogan's injury. If we move forward, when Kagawa Shinji was there, Zhou Yi and Sven Bend played double midfielders.

This ball is already very familiar with the tactical style of double midfielders, but now there is only one midfielder left. How to play these double midfielders?

There are several plans in front of Klopp now - the first one, let Zhou Yi retreat to the back midfielder position, partner with Kyle, and let Mkhitaryan start to play as the front midfielder, so as to maintain the original formation.

The second set of plans is to give full play to the characteristics of Groskreuz being a brick of the revolution, and to move wherever he needs to be, let him play the guest role in the back midfielder and form a double back midfielder with Kyle, and Zhou Yi continues to be in the front midfielder position.

The third set of plans is to change the formation, no longer play the double midfielder tactics, and change to play the parallel position formation of 442. The double forwards are composed of Mark and Aubameyang, and Zhou Yi and Kyle are in the middle of the midfield.

None of these three solutions is the one that makes Klopp feel the best.

The first one is that Zhou Yi retreats to the back midfielder, which is far from the penalty area, and the threat is indeed not as good as when he plays the front midfielder. And if Mkhitaryan wants to play before the game, who will let him organize the attack? Mkhitaryan or Zhou Yi? Will the team be at a loss because of two organizers?

Will there be a tactical conflict between Mkhitaryan and Zhou Yi? Zhou Yi must have possession of the ball. When he has possession of the ball, what about Mkhitaryan? If he doesn't take the ball in the front midfielder position, what is the difference between it and a shadow striker?

The second type is Groskreutz, after all, a cameo appearance. Although he has the attributes of a panacea, he is still not as good as a full-time midfielder. Moreover, he and Kyle have never partnered with a midfielder in training and competitions. What if there is a mistake in cooperation?

The third type is the parallel tactic of 442, which is unfamiliar to the entire Dortmund. In the short three days, how to ensure that the team can adapt to this new formation.

The time left for the team to train is very short, and the time left for Klopp to consider and hesitate is not long. He must choose a path immediately and then go on like this.
