Chapter 782 Meeting Real Madrid Three Times

Klopp feels that he is not wrong at all, he has his own arrangements and ideas.

There is nothing to worry about in the second round with Zenit, but what about the future?

This season, Klopp can feel that the team is undergoing some changes, the dominance is declining, and even this main team often fluctuates. Yes, but only Klopp himself knows the situation of the team.

If you want to blame, you can only blame the team for the lack of signings in the past few seasons. Although the lineup has been kept stable and the combat effectiveness has been guaranteed to the greatest extent, what is really reliable is a set of lineups, which means that the team has been overdrawing the international players. their physical strength.

Last summer, most of them played in the Confederations Cup and World Cup qualifiers. During the winter window, some rushed back to the national team to respond to the call-up. The national team's competition tasks were heavy, and the sequelae immediately appeared.

Klopp had to assess the situation. In fact, he really didn't pay attention to the idea of ​​choosing one of the league or the Champions League. Now the team is still promising in both lines. He just thinks that perhaps these main players should really be added to the rotation.

A player like Hummels, except for injuries, is almost full attendance for a season.

When Dortmund announced the squad for the second round of the Champions League, the reporters realized that they were wrong.

Hummels' rotation in the league turned out to be just a routine action. In this match list, Lewandowski's name did not appear, and the main left back Piszczek was drawn out of the list.The name of the left-back who appeared in the starting lineup is the veteran Friedrich, and the forward arrow is the team's third forward Sieber.

The statement given by Klopp is a normal rotation.

Well, it's not Klopp who is not ridiculous.The media has long been used to it, anyway, they dare not imagine it.

Playing rotation in the Champions League...

They have to apologize to Klopp, it's really wrong.

Conservative, is that still uncle scum?

If not all participating teams have to submit a 23-man squad to UEFA as a backup before the season and after the winter window, and the 18-man squad for each game cannot exceed this range, they really dare not say they will You won't see some unimpressed reserve kids.

Do not doubt, there is nothing that Klopp is afraid to do.

But the Chinese reporters are in Westphalia, they are very at ease, as long as Zhou Tiancheng is not rotated.

Zenit, who came from afar, came desperately.

In the locker room, Spalletti repeated the tactics to everyone: "Judging from their roster, we were underestimated. They didn't pay attention to us and thought they would win. You may feel very angry, But this is not the emotion you should have, I will not allow any of you to be angry, because it will ruin the game! You must remain calm, absolutely calm! Tactics, still follow our usual style, remember, hard enough, there is no Snow is also more beneficial to us, even if the Siberian wolf leaves the ice field, it is still a wolf!"

"Wow!" Arshavin led everyone to express his determination with a wolf howl.

The Dortmund fans who came to the scene all came to enjoy the process. The promotion is already a certainty, and no one believes that they can come back. At the Westfalun Stadium, no one has won Dortmund by three goals for a long time.

Oh, Bayern did it once, but Zenit is no match for Bayern.

Dortmund fans even drank German stout friendly with Zenit expedition fans, they really didn't regard Zenit as a threat.

But the course of the game was tortuous beyond their expectations.

The Zenit players obviously knew that this was a desperate fight, and they had to fight for a pitifully small possibility.Surprisingly, they came first.

In the 7th minute of the opening game, Hulk made a powerful long shot from outside the penalty area, and Arshavin passed the ball consecutively to bypass Zhou Tiancheng's defensive area. The powerful low shot and long shot caught Weidenfeller by surprise and also hit Kloe. Pu was caught off guard.

He couldn't sit still, the momentum wasn't right.

Fortunately, Buvac stood next to him and said with a smile: "Jurgen, didn't they just enter one? Do you think Zhou will do nothing?"

When Klopp thought of this, his face softened a little, and he resisted the urge to growl.

Zenit took the initiative to increase the tempo very quickly. No matter how you look at it, this does not look like a team that was still under pressure at home in the first round.

Many reporters are very nervous, and some reporters have faint smiles on their faces. They are already thinking about how to concoct an article bombarding Klopp after the game.

The media is the most fickle type of people. Sometimes reporters focus on results, and sometimes they focus on process.A team like Borussia Dortmund, no matter how demanding they are, they will not feel any problem.

The defending champion and a second-tier league team have no advantage on the scene, and the score is still behind, there is something to say!

But not everyone is like that.

"Ahaha! The big stupid bears of St. Petersburg are still making their final dying struggles, but at the Westfalen Stadium, all this is meaningless."

Marcel Leff is still confident.

The scene is actually very open, because Zenit is not conservative, and Dortmund will naturally seize opportunities.

Zenit still has some ways to attack, but it can't restrain Zhou Tiancheng at all defensively.Spalletti can only hand over this burden to Tymoshchuk, and then ask the back line to assist him as much as possible.

But the crux of the problem is that Timoshchuk has old arms and legs. Zhou Tiancheng simply turned around and accelerated, and he could pass him head-on. Zenit's premised defense line instantly became a huge hole for him.

The main goalkeeper Malafeyev has repeatedly resolved Royce's offside single-handed ball, but Zhou Tiancheng's world wave is unsolvable.

One goal is enough.Dortmund drew at home and successfully advanced to the quarter-finals of this season's Champions League.

Klopp is not dissatisfied. The main players have been fully rested, which has achieved his greatest goal.

It is not clear what opponent he will encounter next.But no matter who he meets, it will definitely not be easier than Zenit.

In the knockout round, Olympiacos, who was really big, was swept out by Manchester United's double play without any suspense. The next opponents are definitely not easy to deal with.

Klopp has been watching closely since the end of the game, and he has made a plan for every potential opponent.

And he didn't expect to wait until all the promoted teams were released and after the lottery was drawn, it would be such a coincidence.

real Madrid!
This is the third consecutive season that Dortmund have met Real Madrid in the quarter-finals.

The media went crazy. There were still a few focus matches, but now they are all attracted here.

They wondered if UEFA used the draw bucket and small ball from last season and never changed it at all?

How could there be such a coincidence?

This is already the third time, and Zhou Tiancheng is more than that.

Should the plot be different this time?
The Madrid reporter is looking forward to it so much. As a super giant like Real Madrid, once or twice is justified. It would be embarrassing to be swept out by an opponent for three consecutive seasons!
