Ice Shooter of the Green Field

2:0 gnawed the hard bone of Bremen, Dortmund also ushered in the second round of the Europa League contest, Fulham from London visited the West ** Stadium, Klopp boldly rotated in this game Many main forces.

As soon as Bayern tied, Klopp knew that now he had to focus on the league anyway, and facing Fulham leading by two away goals, he also had the capital to rotate.

Klopp basically changed the main force in this rotation. Only captain Kyle continued to start, and Fulham still kept all the main players on the field. They also seemed to see the hope of reversing the score.

However, Dortmund's substitutes were also quite strong. In the first half, Paraguay international Valdez contributed a direct free kick and scored. The total score was already 3:0.

Afterwards, the two teams played back and forth. Fulham also knew their shame and played bravely. They played the traditional tough style of British football, using long balls and Dortmund's fast whirlwind to head-to-head. .

The fans watched with trepidation, especially in the 61st minute of the second half, when the high center forward Zamora knocked off the header and overwhelmed Dede with a header.

But after that, the two sides failed to score again. The game was quite lively, but they didn't score. Fulham also showed their demeanor as the runner-up of the Europa League and won a draw at the West ** Stadium. .

After the game, Klopp was also very happy. Unexpectedly, the team has really broken into the final semi-finals of the Europa League. At this stage, it is not surprising who wins the championship, but now...

Look at the semi-finals of the Europa League, Dortmund, Liverpool, Benfica and Atletico Madrid.

No matter who it is, they are not easy opponents!

Atlético Madrid have been sacked after a poor performance in the league under Abel Resino this season and have brought in former Valencia and Real Madrid legend Enrique Flores as coach , While trying to turn the tide in the league, he also passed all the way in the Europa League, eliminating Valencia, Sporting Lisbon, Galatasaray and other Europa League regulars.

Atletico Madrid's lineup is also luxurious, especially the forwards. Atletico Madrid, known as the sharp edge manufacturer, has a luxurious reserve on the striker line. It is not much weaker than Qi Ce in the limelight. It is also the golden boy of the past few years. Sergio Aguero, as well as Uruguayan striker Diego Forlan, can't forget another Argentine, Maxi Rodriguez, and Portuguese winger Simao.

What Klopp doesn't know is that, according to the normal development, Atletico Madrid is still the champion of the Europa League this season.

Also, Liverpool.

Needless to say, look at their squad, Fernando Torres, Steven Gerrard, Javier Mascherano,

Jamie Carragher, Dirk Kurit, these names are all big names in European football, and the absolute main force of various giant national teams.

Like Atletico Madrid, Liverpool have also encountered some difficulties in the league, but in the Europa League, they also reached the final semi-finals.

The only one that is easier to play is Benfica, but the Portuguese Super League is a place where there are many monster stars. As a Portuguese Super League giant, Benfica's strength is also quite good, especially some Brazilians in the team.

Brazil and Portugal are inextricably linked, and it is easy for Brazilians to start logging in to Europe from Portugal. In the modern football world, Europe has replaced South America as the center of world football. The Brazilians' success in Europe is largely due to Portugal.

Now in the Benfica team, midfielders Ramirez, Menezes, and David Luiz are players with many suitors from European giants.

It's the same for everyone.

In the semi-finals, there are actually no big gift packages. Everyone stands here based on their own strengths, including Dortmund.

In the end, Dortmund drew the Premier League team with which they were very destined this season. This time, the giant Red Army Liverpool came.

This is two weeks later, and what Dortmund has to do now is to concentrate and sprint to the league with all their strength.

The opponent in the next game is going to the Bruch Road Stadium to challenge Mainz.

Facing Mainz in such a key game is quite special. This is a game that must be won, and Mainz is not weak now.

Under the leadership of Tuchel, Mainz has maintained a ranking similar to last season without Zize. It is currently in seventh place and still has the opportunity to qualify for the European war.

Royce, Schurrle, and Meyer, the three Bruchlodge boys, have performed amazingly this season. Kirchhoff and Francic have also played in the first team, and Bell has also been transferred. If you enter the first team, you may also get a chance in the last few games of the season.

Finally going home!

Klopp muttered something to himself on the bus before the game, and was the first to board the bus, sitting in the first row, looking a little nervous and looking forward to it.

The same is true for Zize. Look at Subotic. The two sat in a row and touched their fists lightly.

"It's really nice to go back and have a look, what do you think?"

Zize smiled: "Of course, I have been looking forward to this day for a long time."

The fans of Mainz are also very welcome to Dortmund's visit. In this game, the attendance rate of the Bruch Road Stadium was overwhelmed. It was sold out several weeks before the game, which shows that the fans of Mainz attach great importance to this game. degree.

There is another reason. If all goes well, Mainz may move out of the old Bruch Road Stadium next season and go to the new stadium. Although the exact date has not yet been set, it will be next season without accident.

In other words, if Dortmund and Mainz do not have a good schedule for next season, then Klopp, Ice Cube, and Subotic will find that their hometowns have been demolished when they come back. Mainz fans still hope to see These people went back to Brugge Road to have a look.

Although Bruchstrasse is a bit worn out and a bit old, it is also an old place that bears the history of Mainz for nearly a hundred years. It is a good thing to move to a new stadium, but we cannot forget our old friends because of this.

The home stadium of Mainz next season should be called Coface Arena. This French company is the sponsor of Mainz. It is said that Mainz executives are not satisfied with the naming fee of Coface Group. Inz is already a Bundesliga team, and it is very important to be part of the Bundesliga for a long time in their blueprint. After this contract expires, Mainz is also looking for new sponsors.

However, the name of the new stadium will still be used by the sponsor for the time being, and the contract credit still needs to be guaranteed.

On April 11, when Dortmund's team bus crossed the bridge between Frankfurt and Mainz over the Rhine, Zize felt as if he was in another world.

It was the first time I came here by car, seeing the jagged villas and churches on the mountain, Zize still felt very fresh, but now I have lived in Germany for a long time, and I don’t feel much anymore.

In fact, after moving to Dortmund, Zize also occasionally went to Mainz, but at that time he drove his own miniature golf there. When driving, he didn't have so much energy to pay attention to the surrounding scenery, so he had to concentrate.

The sparkling Rhine River is as usual. This section of the Rhine River is not beautiful, but it is also a special taste in Zize's eyes.

When entering the city of Mainz, Dortmund's bus was welcomed by many Mainz fans.

Of course, they didn't come to welcome Dortmund mainly, it was obviously their Jurgen Klopp and, of course, their Ice Cube.

Last season's German Cup championship brought too much vitality to the ancient city of Mainz. They have been unable to replicate such brilliance this season, but obviously, the aftertaste brought by the championship is still continuing. The players made them very excited.

This season, Mainz's performance is also very good, but many teams are eyeing their players, which makes the fans a little worried.

The team is still likely to sell some key players. After all, the stadium has just been built, and the dividends brought by the stadium cannot be reflected at once. This is a long-term profitable project, but it must be losing money in the near future. In order to make up for this gap , There is no way for the team to sell players.

These fans don't need to think about it yet. Now they have to face the Dortmund game, a derby between Klopp's new and old clubs.
