Ice Shooter of the Green Field

Vol 3 Chapter 142: European Super Cup

Many media concerns about Dortmund are not groundless.

The biggest competitor is strengthening, but Dortmund himself is standing still. Shaheen is gone, and it is Gundogan. Not to mention how much worse Gundogan is than Shaheen, at least not much stronger, right?

From the point of view of value, Gundogan, who is worth 8 million euros, and Sahin, who is worth 40 million euros, are not comparable. Of course, Sahin has a triple crown bonus, and Jingdogan does not. Xin is gone, the newcomer Gundogan is much better than him, probably staying in place, or even going backwards.

In other positions, it is meaningless to discuss whether Perisic and Hajnar are strong or weak, because their positioning will obviously be a substitute. Generally speaking, Dortmund's strength should stand still or regress slightly.

Although the Triple Crown is already the pinnacle of a team, it is bound to usher in weakness after the peak, but Dortmund fans certainly do not want to fall too hard at once, after all, only Shahin is missing now.

Under this factor, the Bundesliga was officially launched.

On August 6, 2011, the first round of the Bundesliga started the entire season with the defending champion Dortmund. The opponent was Hamburg. Dortmund set sail for the new season at the West** Stadium. The score was 3:1, which was simply neat.

The players were not affected much by the outside world. Dortmund lost a goal first and chased three goals in a row to reverse the score. It is very rare that Qi Ce failed to continue the momentum of scoring in the first round and scored for Dortmund. The ball was Grosskrotz, Gotze and Shinji Kagawa, but Chitze contributed an assist to help Grosskrotz tie the score.

Shinji Kagawa, who had not played for Dortmund in the official game for several months, came off the bench in the 77th minute and scored a goal in less than three minutes, which is also gratifying.

Bayern Munich, who started the game shortly thereafter, were ambitious this season, but they were slammed by Monchengladbach. They lost to their opponents in the first round of the league and the score was 1:0.

Of course, the first game did not explain any problems.

After four games, there should almost be a preliminary conclusion.

After the four rounds of the league, the preliminary championship situation has been shown in the standings. The first tier is composed of Dortmund, Bayern Munich, Schalke 04 and Werder Bremen. Bayern Munich was in the first round of the league. After the defeat of Borussia, they knew their shame and then courageously won three consecutive victories.

Dortmund was also three wins and one loss. In the second round of the league, Dortmund was stubbornly blocked by Hoffenheim. In the end, with Zize's first league goal of the season, he set the game and took three from the Rhein Neckar Stadium. Points and won the second victory.

The third round was to face Nuremberg, who was worthy of relegation last season. The score was 2:0. Qi Tse scored consecutively and Royce also scored the first goal of the season.

In the fourth round, Dortmund, who was looking forward to a four-game winning streak, suffered revenge from Leverkusen. Leverkusen played a heart-warming 4:3 against Dortmund at home. Qi Ce was rarely blocked again, but he sent out. Two assists were given to Shinji Kagawa and Kuba.

The other two teams Schalke 04 and Werder Bremen also have three wins and one draw. These two teams have kept up with Dortmund and Bayern Munich at the beginning of the season, but not many people are optimistic about them.

After all, these two teams lost the absolute main force in the summer. Schalke 04 lost Neuer. He went directly to Bayern Munich. In the past two years, Schalke 04 has absolute world-class strength in the goalkeeper position. Because of Neuer, Neuer left the team and directly joined the strongest competitor, which can be described as a heavy loss.

On the other side, Bremen lost the captain Mertesacker. The defender did not stay in the Bundesliga. He went to Premier League giants Arsenal to start a new adventure.

The importance of these two people is not much worse than that of Shaheen to Dortmund, or even more, because these two are the most important players in the defense line of their respective teams. Although Shaheen is the core of the midfielder, it is not the most important. Players, the most important player is Zize, but Mertesacker and Neuer are the most important to their old club.

Losing not only the defensive core, but also the best player, this is also a blow to the team's spirit.

Zize did not leave Dortmund, which is not only the meaning of not losing core players in the competition, but also a great help to the morale of the team.

Of course, these teams have long been able to cope with it, including Dortmund, they are not the biggest giants, in the football world, big fish eat small fish, small fish eat dried shrimp, this kind of thing is no longer normal.

Many Temund will also face this situation one day, but not now.

Now, Dortmund's pressure is whether it can defend the dignity of the Champions League champions, facing the Portuguese super giants Porto in the European Super Cup, is also the key game for Dortmund to become the fifth crown.

Louis II Stadium, Monaco, France.

The new season of the European Super Cup will herald the start of the new season of the Champions League. Prior to this, the UEFA Champions League group stage draw has been completed. As the top seeded team, Dortmund was drawn to Group C. This season, Dortmund finally avoided death. Of the group.

This is what they won. The team that wins the Champions League does not need to look at the European Championship points and automatically enter the seed team. This is very important for Dortmund, who was still in the third gear last season.

They can rely on the performance of these two seasons to reach the resident team in the first tier of the Champions League.

The second-tier team that fell into Group C is an old opponent, Russia’s Zenit St. Petersburg. Zize has wonderful memories of this team. He scored five goals in a single game for the first time in St. Petersburg. Here he was also given a very unpopular but favorite title, called the King of the North.

The other two teams entering Group C are Olympiacos from Greece and Genk Athletic from Belgium. They are not teams in the five major leagues. For Dortmund, it is not very difficult.

France, Louis II Stadium.

Dortmund ushered in the second European Super Cup final in history. The first time was in 1997 when Dortmund won the Champions League for the first time. However, they did not win the championship because the European Cup Winners’ Cup that year was Barcelona. At that time, it was a contest between the European Cup Winners' Cup and the Champions League. After the European Cup Winners' Cup was merged into the Europa League, it became a competition between the Champions League and the UEFA Champions League.

At that time, the UEFA Champions League still scored two rounds. Dortmund drew 1:1 at home, but lost 0:2 in the next road trip and missed the first UEFA Champions League in team history.

However, at that time, the UEFA Super Cup was not very much valued, and now it is regarded as a tournament that the European giants pay more attention to. For the Triple Crown Dortmund, it is definitely hoped to win all the championships that can be won this season.

Of course, Porto is not vegetarian.

As a well-known black shop in Europe, Porto is very accomplished in training players and scouts. The UEFA Champions League last season is a very good proof, with Hulk, Guarin, Moutinho, Otamen Porto's stars like Di also have great potential.

But they just sold their star. He is Colombian striker Falcao, who went to Atletico Madrid for 45 million euros.

Without Falcao, Porto will not change much in the game strategy.

Because their strategy has always been this way, UU reading www. There is no one at uukanshu.com that has to stay. If Zize is playing for Porto, he will inevitably leave this summer. Most importantly, this is what Porto wants.

In this game, Dortmund's basic main lineup made every effort and vowed to win the championship trophy.

The goalkeeper is Weidenfeller, Schmelzer and Piszczek are separated, Santana and Subotic partnered with central defenders. Hummels had a slight injury in the last game, and Klopp did not dare to let him. adventure.

In midfield, Kyle partnered with Gundogan to start, Kuba, Royce and Goetze started, and Qice served as the striker.

On the Porto side, there are also famous players. The old Brazilian goalkeepers Helton, Sapunaru, Rolando, Otamendi and Pereira are in the defense. The three midfielders are Defort, Fernando and Moutinho. Starting, the forward is led by Hulk, Kleiber and Christian Rodriguez start.

The Louis II Stadium, this is the largest stadium in Monaco, but the actual number of fans that can be accommodated is not much, because the Principality of Monaco is in France, with a population of only more than 30,000 people and an area as large as 400 football fields. The II Stadium occupies 400/1 of the entire country, which is already very large.
