Midfielder Ruler

? Dortmund has not won two consecutive rounds, and the last round of home games was a mess. If it weren't for the opponent's own goal, it would be difficult to score a point at home.

Therefore, many media believe that Dortmund's visit to the Forest Stadium in this campaign is more ominous than good. After all, Frankfurt's performance at the beginning of the season is better than that of Dortmund. Even the local Dortmund fans are not very optimistic about the team's away game.

Moreover, the end of this round of the league will enter the international match day, and when the international match day is over, Dortmund will welcome the powerful Bayern Munich at home.

This crucial national derby is the highlight. If Dortmund does not show a certain degree of convincingness in the next away game, then the next home game will be difficult to deal with Bayern Munich, which has invested heavily in the new season, even if the opponent is in the first three rounds. The performance created the worst start in history.

In the regular press conference before the game, Klopp said: "Bayern Munich is after the international break, now our attention should be on Frankfurt, they are our current opponents!"

Klopp's words made those Frankfurt fans and the media very happy. If Klopp mentioned Bayern Munich at this time, he would not put Frankfurt in his eyes, a very conscious young coach...

The media, who wanted to deliberately arouse public outrage, shook their heads, and had no choice but to put the issue on the league starting tomorrow.

Later, "Bild" mentioned the problem of Dortmund's recent offensive and difficult to score goals. Klopp rarely smiled: "Believe me, we will score goals, one more than the opponent."

If the previous answer is to respect Frankfurt, then the next sentence is tantamount to a declaration of war.

Many Dortmund local media were excited to hear it, because this is the passionate Jurgen Klopp they are familiar with!

On the day of the game, the Forest Stadium, which can accommodate 43,000 people, was packed.

Frankfurt performed extremely well in the first three rounds of the new season, achieving an unbeaten record of two wins and one draw. Because of the goal difference, they ranked fifth in the league.

So the Frankfurt fans are very excited. From the first moment they entered the field, they deliberately created a fanatical atmosphere of their own home court.

At the same time, the head coaches of the two sides obtained the starting list of opponents for this game from the Bundesliga official.

Eintracht Frankfurt head coach Skibe, who worked for Dortmund in 2009, looked at the Dortmund starting roster in his hands. There were two positions that were quite different from his pre-match guesses. Waist Hajnaur, Paraguay striker Barrios replaced Egypt striker Zidan.

But thinking of Tang Zheng's poor performance when he came off the bench recently,

Relieved, Skibe shook his head.

It seems that Klopp has been driven crazy by the media recently, and even used a player who did not integrate into the team as a midfielder in a key league game.

Really courting death!

Since he wanted to find death at the Forest Stadium, he didn't mind being a favor.

But when the game started, the situation was very different from what he had imagined.

With Shaheen and Kyle both present, Tang Zheng's position is not the attacking midfielder, but the central midfielder.

Feulner and Gross Kreutz didn't stay on the wing, they moved on the two ribs, and the top position was even higher than Tang Zheng.

Strictly speaking, Klopp's lineup is not the currently popular four-two-three formation, but the Christmas tree formation that AC Milan won the Champions League two years ago.

Tang Zheng's performance is also very different from the previous three rounds of appearances in the Bundesliga. As for the specific difference, Skibe has not yet seen it.

As time went on, Skibe knew.

Tang Zheng played more proactively, moved more without the ball, and moved erratically, so that the two defensive midfielders were useless. In addition, Shaheen occasionally stepped in to attack, and Dortmund's offensive as a guest was extremely threatening.

Fortunately, during this time goalkeeper Pruel performed eye-catchingly and continuously resolved the danger in front of the goal, otherwise Frankfurt would fall behind at home.

Seeing Tang Zheng's performance in the past ten minutes or so, the star commentator of German TV Z2, Michael Reti, said in surprise: "Is this really the former River Plate midfielder who had no bright spots in the first three rounds? His performance was too great. Excellent, just like Yang who was all-powerful in Frankfurt back then..."

Frankfurt is a very humane club. Yang Chen played for Frankfurt for four seasons that year, contributed many wonderful and crucial goals, and contributed his strength in many relegation battles.

Therefore, the Frankfurt fans kept it in mind, so when they saw Tang Zheng using the Marseille maneuver in the Forest Stadium, there was a burst of thunderous applause over the Forest Stadium.

German Sky TV commentator Marcel Leif said: "This is the strength that the former River Plate's core midfielder should have. I believe that he will gradually find his game status and lead Dortmund out of the current predicament."

Duan Xuan, the commentator of Central 5, said excitedly: "That's right! The current Tang Zheng is the best Tang Zheng! His skillful foot skills and extraordinary movements can still be practical without losing sight. Now we can announce in advance. World Tang Glory returns!"

The game continued, and Shaheen's frequent back-ups created a lot of opportunities, but he couldn't grasp Tang Zheng's exquisite direct pass, but it made Bairamovic and Clark's double midfielders play very hard.

If they don't pay attention to Tang Zheng, they will enter the restricted area to look for opportunities, but if they pay attention to Tang Zheng, they will lose sight of the other, and they feel powerless due to their lack of ability to read the game.

Klopp, who was always passionate on the sidelines, signaled the two full-backs to press forward boldly. Now that Frankfurt's central defense has problems, there will be opportunities for wing attacks.

really!

When the game lasted for half an hour, Tang Zheng immediately handed the ball to Shaheen after getting the ball, and then followed Barrios into the penalty area one after the other.

Shaheen became famous at a young age and has a strong long-range shooting ability. Clark did not dare to neglect and went up to meet him.

But Shaheen did not have too much possession of the ball, he saw that the left midfielder Gross Kreutz had moved in to make room for the left back Schmelzer.

So he did not hesitate to pass the ball to the left back Schmelzer, who took the ball forward, taking advantage of this time difference, he looked up at the penalty area.

Barrios in the front point was in a bad position, Tang Zheng in the middle raised his right hand, signaling him to pass the ball.

Schmelzer made up his mind to send the ball to the center, because Tang Zheng has a height of 1.93 meters, he believed that this new teammate should be able to fight for this spot.

The right back Oakes, who returned to the wing, was half a beat slow. He could only witness Schmelzer's cross into the penalty area.

Barrios leaped high in the front point, but missed the ball.

However, his take-off caused the Frankfurt central defender Vassowski, who was marking him, to make a misjudgment, and he also failed to reach the football.

"Crowned-"

The commentator of German TV Z2 Michael Reti exclaimed,

At the same time, there was a burst of exclamation in the Forest Stadium, like an air defense siren.

Another central defender, Ruth, wanted to make a clearance, but his eyes suddenly went dark. His rich experience in the game told him that someone accelerated in front of him.

Tang Zheng kicked his right foot hard to the ground, and leaped high ten yards away from the goal in the middle of the restricted area. He hit the football on his forehead accurately, twisted his waist and shook his head.

The goalkeeper Pruel, who had been performing well before, seemed to be bound by something. His feet did not move, but he subconsciously turned his head to look at the far corner of the goal.

The football rubbed against the goal post on the right side of the goal and crashed into the snow-white net...

※※※

"The goal is scored! The goal is scored! Tang Zheng scored his first goal in the Bundesliga! He headed the left-back Schmelzer's cross into the far corner of the goal!"

Central 5 commentator Duan Xuan said excitedly.

"The iconic headed goal into the penalty area!" German Sky commentator Marcel Leif shouted: "The ability of the air fighter is fully reflected at this time. Maybe starting today, the Bundesliga team should study how to prevent it. An attacking midfielder."

"Frankfurt's poor air defense ability is infinitely magnified at this time, and they are going to be in danger if they aim to score three points at home!"

This is what Michael Reti, the ace commentator of Germany's second channel, said.

The live broadcast camera focused on Tang Zheng who spread his arms, and saw him rushing to the coach's seat excitedly.

Klopp, who had just finished raising his arms and shouting, realized what Tang Zheng, who had scored a goal, was going to do next, so he smiled and opened his arms.

Tang Zheng hugged Klopp and said loudly: "Thank you for your trust."

"Silly boy."

Klopp patted Tang Zheng's back vigorously.

The other excited Dortmund players followed suit and followed suit.

This goal is very relieved, sweeping away the haze brought by the past two rounds of the league.

Dortmund, who took the lead, controlled the game for the rest of the first half. The aggressive Dortmund under Klopp's training last season is back!

The high pressure in the frontcourt caused Frankfurt to be unable to effectively control the ball at their feet during the transition from defense to offense. Even if they controlled the football, the chance of a fast break was gone.

Klopp's tactic is similar to Simeone's high-position press on the river plate. Tang Zheng gradually found the feeling in this tactic system, thus controlling the situation on the field.

In the second half, when they changed sides and fought again, Shaxin felt that the limelight had been robbed by Tang Zheng, and the number of times he got in behind became more and more frequent.

Tang Zheng's ability to read the game is very strong. He realized that Shaheen's frequent back-ups would bring great hidden dangers to the team's defense, so he kindly reminded him.

But Shaheen didn't follow Tang Zheng's suggestion, but continued to go his own way.

Tang Zheng shook his head in distress, he is not Shaheen, he will not be impulsive when playing football.

The hidden dangers brought by Shaheen's post-cutting are always resolved by him in his active running, but Tang Zheng is not a god after all, so it cannot be said that he can avoid danger every time.

No, in the 68th minute of the game, Clark seized Shaheen's mistake and found space directly after stealing the ball. Turkish forward Altentop Jr. made a low shot from the right side of the penalty area to equalize the score.
