Chapter 200 The First Time, and Possibly the Last Time

The final result of the second season of the Ruhr Derby was 4:2, and it ended with Dortmund winning a big victory. Although the score of this game looked good, the process of the game was much more anxious than the score showed. The fourth goal There is not much reference value in it.

Qi Ce, who scored a hat-trick in this game, once again became the focus.

In the Bundesliga, Zize and Schalke 04 have fewer chances to play against each other than other teams. Last season, they played a game in Mainz, scored one goal and assisted one time. That was after the game against Bayern Munich last season. He stole the show.

However, Zize did not play in the next two possible matches. One was due to the German Cup rotation and the other was when Zize participated in the World Youth Championship. Schalke 04 also defeated Zize Mainz and Dortmund are absent.

But as long as Zize is on the court, Schalke 04 will lose!

In this game, Qi Ce even performed a hat-trick and added an assist. Many media have mentioned that if Qi Ce played more selfishly, he would have completed his senior year today.

Another hat trick!

This is the fourth time Zize has scored more than three goals in a single game this season, with a cap on his debut against Cologne, then Bayern, and a staggering five goals in the Europa League against Zenit St Petersburg !

and now!

Zize scored a hat-trick in the Ruhr Derby!

Thinking about it carefully, it is very interesting for Qi Ce to complete the games with more than three goals. These games are either very meaningful or the opponents are strong.

Cologne is a tribute to the first show, a tribute to the club's centenary establishment, Bayern Munich is touted by the media as the new German national derby, Zenit is the champion of the Europa League two years ago, and the match between the two sides is a key battle for the first place in the group. And Schalke 04 is the sworn enemy of the Ruhr area.

This attribute of breaking out every major game has attracted fans and the media. As for the 3:0 defeat by Bayern not long ago, most people have automatically ignored it, at least for now.

The media always does.

It's also true, though, that Zize's status among Dortmund fans has been further cemented with this game.

It’s okay not to win the championship. Anyway, the current Dortmund fans don’t have such big ambitions. The Dortmund fans who have gone through the bankruptcy storm are very Buddhist now, as long as they don’t get relegated. But losing to Schalke 04?

This is absolutely unacceptable. Losing at home in the last game and failing to regain face this season is more uncomfortable for Dortmund fans than swallowing dead flies.

Will be laughed at by that neighbor all year long!

This is no joke.

In Europe, football is a part of life. It is normal for the home team to lose their heads in front of other fans. In the Ruhr area, Dortmund and Gelsenkirchen are two neighboring cities. The place with the strongest football atmosphere.

After the game.

The media surrounded the press conference room at the Schalke Stadium, which made Zize a little surprised, and felt that he still underestimated the influence of the Ruhr Derby.

Originally, Zize did not go to the press conference with Klopp, but when he came out of the stadium, he was immediately surrounded by a large group of reporters. This kind of battle was rarely seen before.

But fortunately now, Qi Ce is no longer the kid who just made his debut who doesn't understand anything and has to be protected by the head coach. Facing the microphones handed over one by one, Qi Ce answered calmly.

"Is this your first time participating in the Ruhr Derby today?"

"Yes, last time in the national team."

"Any thoughts on the Ruhr Derby?"

"It's crazy, but it turned out well, hope the fans enjoy the game, it's a pity that the first half of the season didn't get a chance, it's a game that has to be won, for both sides, and now I'm back, so Gotta win."

"Oh? Can you keep beating Schalke 04?"

"I think so, as long as I'm around, we can beat them."

Zize's interview attracted the attention of some media,

The exaggerated media reports are that Zize believes that as long as he is present, Schalke 04 will not be able to win the Ruhr Derby.

These small episodes also added some gunpowder to the Ruhr Derby, but Dortmund fans were very satisfied with Zitzer's speech.

Derby, as it should be!

And Zize is right, in Mainz or Dortmund, as long as Zize is on the court against Schalke 04, his team will win, otherwise they will lose.

During this period of time, the schedule was very tight. After playing a very exhausting Ruhr Derby, the team ushered in the challenge of Everton in the Premier League on the last day of February.

Klopp was very tangled in this game.

Of course he wants to advance. At least Dortmund, which has already scored two away goals, does not seem to be very difficult to advance, but the question now is-whether to rotate?

Including Zize, Kuba, Zidan, Kyle, Hummels, Subotic, Schmelzer and other main players played the whole game in the last Ruhr Derby. This game can be said It consumes a lot of energy, especially on the offensive line, the constant oppression and running positions, all of which consume a lot of energy.

The game waits for no one.

In the restorative training the next day, Klopp finally decided to rotate the lineup. After thinking about it again and again, Klopp felt that it would be more realistic to enter the Champions League through the league.

Being eliminated by Everton is not entirely a bad thing. Dortmund has already been eliminated in the German Cup. If they are eliminated in the Europa League, then they can concentrate on the league, and it is even conceivable to think of ways to compete for the championship.

Dortmund, who scored three points, still leads the standings. Although Bayern is still following closely, the current initiative is still in the hands of Dortmund.

So, in the second round against Everton, Klopp put in a rotation lineup, Valdés, Hajnal, Rangeilov starting partner striker, Bender and Shaheen started, Kagawa Shinji continued to play .

The defense did not rotate, Schmelzer, Hummels, Subotic and Gross Klotz continued to start.

However, the progress of the game disappointed Klopp very much.

In the 14th minute, Dortmund's main line of defense fell, and Everton's Australian star Cahill scored a header in front of Hummels, pulling the total score to 2:2.

Although the team still relies on away goals to lead, it is beyond Klopp's expectations to lose so quickly.

Zize, Zidan, Kyle and others sat on the bench to watch the game.

In my impression, Zize feels that Klopp is not a head coach who likes to rotate very much. This time, he chooses to rotate. It seems that he still shows his attitude. The Europa League can be abandoned.

In fact, Zize does not want to give up the Europa League.

The reason is also very simple. The Europa League is a European-level competition. Although it is only a secondary competition, it is also one of the highest honors in Europe!

And it can be said that there may not be too many opportunities to participate in the future.

Well, there is another such very selfish thought.

It should be said to be a kind of inertial thinking.

After winning the Golden Boy Award and various honors, Qi Ce felt that the next goal should naturally be placed on higher-level honors, the league, and the Champions League. If Dortmund cannot qualify for the Champions League in the league in the future, Qi Ce will Thinking about whether to stay here.

The same goes for transfers.

Champions League qualification is very important for the attraction of stars. If there is a choice, Qi Ce will definitely choose a team that can play in the Champions League. Of course, it is another matter if there are rich teams willing to pay high wages.

This season, whether Dortmund can win the league championship or not, there should be no problem entering the Champions League next season.

This may also mean that this will be Zize's first time participating in the Europa League, and it may also be the last time.

That being the case, this Europa League has also become very meaningful.
