Grass roots glory

Chapter 330 Referee, You Are Awesome!
This season, Schalke and France seem to have a good relationship. Ten days ago, they won the UEFA Super Cup in Monaco, and now they are going to challenge the most glorious team in the history of Ligue [-] as a guest.

Although Lyon's current dominance over Ligue [-] is not as terrifying as it was when they won seven consecutive championships at the beginning of this century, including Paris Saint-Germain and Monaco are trying to challenge the hegemony, but the current lineup configuration of Lyon is still the strongest in the entire Ligue [-].
Especially in their Gerlange Stadium, the attendance rate of this game is close to [-]%, and they are facing the defending champion. From the perspective of momentum, they are the side that is more eager to win.

In the locker room at home, head coach Puel opened the door of the locker room, and the hot atmosphere and shouts on the court clearly reached the ears of every Lyon player in the locker room.

"Guys, is this atmosphere familiar? You can go and see how many fans are outside, it's rare in the league! They're here to see us upset. It's a fight, guys! I believe it Everyone knows what the Germans said before, so no one wants to be questioned like that, right?"

The eyes of all Lyon players became firm by two points, Puel saw the desire to fight in everyone's eyes, this state is what he really wanted, he clapped his hands vigorously and said: "That's it, go to the field now! "

Puel is not just talking about motivating players, even facing upstarts in European football, but with the advantage of home court, he never thought of being conservative at all.Although the formation is 4-2-3-1, at the beginning of the game, the double defensive midfielders Tulalang and Gonalons pressed very high, once approaching the frontcourt playmaker Gourcuff, and resolutely implemented the high position Pressing and counter-robbing are the biggest characteristics of Schalke today, but Puel plans to repay him in the same way today. Lyon did show extraordinary courage today. They took the lead in competing with Schalke for space on the pitch , did take the initiative in the opening.

Magath's starting three midfielders today are Baumjohann, Jurado and Zhou Tiancheng.Although Kluger has recovered from injury, Magath followed the advice of the team medical team. He was really not suitable for such a high-intensity confrontation just after recovering from injury, so Magath did not put him in the squad for this game.

But without Kluger, Jurado and Baumjohann were a bit unable to cope with Lyon's almost unreasonable personal invasion. Both of them are technical midfielders who rely on their feet to gain a foothold. Pushing close to the body, and even the center of gravity is difficult to stabilize, no matter how good the technique is, it is difficult to have room to play.

When the two were blocked from holding the ball, they almost subconsciously wanted to hand it over to Zhou Tiancheng. Magath did explain it like this usually, and he had practiced this routine of breaking the high pressure in the frontcourt many times in training, but Hu When Rado really threw the ball towards Zhou Tiancheng's side, he realized that he had underestimated the trouble ahead.

Seeing the ball passing towards Zhou Tiancheng, Tulalang and Gonarones threw off the defense at the same time and pounced towards Zhou Tiancheng. Since Jurado was passing the ball in a strong confrontation, he did not control enough strength Accurate, the ball speed is slow, giving the opponent plenty of time.Tulalang was one step ahead of Zhou Tiancheng, counter-stealing the ball outside the Schalke penalty area and advancing.

Baumjohann, who was in the back position at the moment, saw the sudden change in the situation and immediately went up to intercept him. He was indeed decisive enough, but facing the main midfielder of the French national team, Toulalan, he still seemed inexperienced, at least against Tulalan. Lalang will choose to change to a frontal force and be unprepared.As a result, the shovel stepped firmly on Tulalang's feet.Although the attack was blocked in time, he received a yellow card in less than 10 minutes.

Zhou Tiancheng walked over to give Baumjohn a high-five. He knew that if he received a yellow card early, his defensive pressure might become greater, but his teammates should be encouraged to have such enthusiasm.

Lyon's frontcourt set ball did not pose any threat, Zhou Tiancheng defended the front point and easily intercepted the ball.Schalke's counterattack formation quickly unfolded, as many as five players rushed forward quickly, Zhou Tiancheng quickly passed the ball to the side, Hao Junmin's off-the-ball sprint has already thrown away left back Sissoko .

"Beautiful, Zhou Tian's growth pass, Schalke's opportunity to counterattack has come!" He Wei raised his voice and shouted in the BJ studio.

However, he immediately saw Zhou Tiancheng fell to the ground, and Gourcuff, who had returned to defense, swept Zhou Tiancheng's support leg with his shovel.

The Serbian referee Majic on duty blew his whistle, ran to the scene of the incident, and showed Gourcuff a yellow card.

"Gurcuff's action was indeed too obvious. He had no chance to get the ball at all just now. The referee was merciful. A red card is not an exaggeration for this action."

Seeing Zhou Tiancheng being shoveled maliciously, the Schalke players went up and grabbed the opponent's collar, which is a theory.Matip, the most irritable in the team, got the opportunity to make his career debut in the Champions League today. The young people were already excited, but now they just found a reasonable outlet.

Although the referee team came up in time to control the situation, the post-processing of the on-duty referee Majic was unconvincing.Obviously it was the Lyon player's foul that caused the conflict, but the referee focused on warning Schalke.

The German media on Schalke's side must not be convinced. They quickly recorded this scene. After the game, it is estimated that with the popularity of "Lyon's father theory", this scene will have a chance to hype it up again.

However, they soon discovered that the action just now was unnecessary, and the most controversial scene in the audience was far from this.

The Schalke players also got angry. It was obvious that Lyon just wanted to bully people with punches and kicks. Baumjohn completely forgot that he was still carrying a yellow card, and he was very aggressive in fighting for the ball, even if it was half the chance for each of them. Facing the black and hard Gonarones, he was not afraid at all, facing the opponent's outstretched feet, his two legs strangled together.

Baumjohn obviously felt that he had stepped on the ball, and he just gently brought his opponent down with his toes, but Gonerons fell to the ground, curled up in a ball, as if he had been kicked by Dan.

Baumjohn was stunned for a moment. Before he could react, the referee had already walked in front of him. Madzic touched his pocket with a serious expression and said, "You need to calm down."

Baumjohn finally came to his senses. At the same time, Zhou Tiancheng and several players quickly surrounded him. Seeing the referee's actions, everyone knew that something was wrong. He had a yellow card!
As the captain, Zhou Tiancheng must try his best to intercede for his teammates. He leaned closer to Majic and explained sincerely: "Mr. Referee, give him another chance. His actions are definitely not so bad. Your distance just now is not as close as mine. I must not have seen it clearly, it was just a reasonable fight..."

But before Zhou Tiancheng could finish explaining, Madzic first showed the yellow card, first showed it to Baumjohann, then raised it at Zhou Tiancheng, then took out the red card from the other pocket and raised it high.

Zhou Tiancheng became anxious immediately, shook his head and said, "This is wrong, this is wrong, Mr. Referee! Look how exaggerated his performance is. We were wronged."

"You talk too much, I will master the competition scale." Madzic said with a serious face.

Zhou Tiancheng was filled with anger. He was beside him just now, and he could see the whole process clearly. This kind of punishment was completely beyond his expectation.

Looking around at the cheering environment of the opponent's home court, he seemed to understand something.With a helpless face, he gave the referee a thumbs up, and then walked away silently.

If you can't provoke me, I can hide from you. If you have the power to overwhelm others, I won't argue with SB.

Referee, you are awesome!
