Chapter 383 A Difficult Game

One goal behind, the situation was passive, and he was sent off. Magath stood on the sidelines with a livid face, his mind was spinning rapidly, and suddenly heard a loud roar from the side.

"Quick! Press it up! Kill them!"

"They're finished!"

Klopp danced and urged the players to score another goal.

The Dortmund players ran even harder on the field. Although Schalke 04 had returned to defense across the board, there was still danger in front of the goal. Neuer made two key saves within 3 minutes.

In the 69th minute, Dortmund made a mistake in the frontcourt pass. Barrios's cross was intercepted by Rakitic. The Croatian was about to send the ball to the side. Bring the ball down together.

Amid boos, the referee showed Shaheen a yellow card, and the boos grew louder.

In fact, so far in this Ruhr Derby, there have been many fouls, but not many cards have been shown. Only Sun Wu and Mandzukic have received cards respectively. This is rare in the history of Ruhr Derby.

The anger began to burst at this time, the reason is very simple, Rakitic, who was shoveled, couldn't hold on, and was replaced by Hitzlsperger 2 minutes later.

Sun Wu stomped his feet angrily. This season he has already suffered from bleeding. In addition to himself, he also used medical insurance cards on Farfan and Mandzukic. These two are currently indispensable players, but I did not expect Rakitic Qi was actually injured, if he had known, he would not have saved this point!

Staring back at Shaheen, Sun Wu was very upset. He knew the future career trajectory of this Turkish midfielder. He came back from injury, and then came back after being injured... Unexpectedly, he could still shovel someone!
Klopp also made personnel adjustments, replacing Goetze with Kuba, and then replacing Gross Kreuz with Piszczek, continuing to maintain the oppressive style of play against Schalke 04 in the frontcourt.

"This is to kill them all." Duan Xuan said with a wry smile: "If another goal is scored, Schalke 04 is likely to collapse, and then there will be a bloody massacre."

"The Ruhr Derby." Tao Wei also smiled wryly, "If they can score ten goals, they will never only score nine... Now it depends on how Magath adjusts."

After blocking Lars Bender's long-range shot with his body, Sun Wu yelled at Farfan who was not far away, "Jefferson, what are you doing back here!"

Farfan spread his hands innocently.

"Go forward!" Sun Wu pointed to Dortmund's goal.

Originally, they wanted to make a sneak attack and let Farfan fight back in the middle, but now that Mandzukic has been sent off, Dortmund's defense of course knows that the only threat to the opponent is this Peruvian. Hummels is very good at Farfan Watch closely.

But even so, Sun Wu insisted that Farfan go forward instead of coming back to help defend. This is not only to reduce the pressure on the defense line, but also a signal from Sun Wu...

We did not give up the offense!

In fact, Dortmund's tactic looks aggressive, but it is not without its advantages. The most notable point is that their turnover rate in the frontcourt is very high.

It's just that once the pass is wrong, Dortmund players will press high and use various means to prevent Schalke 04 from counterattacking smoothly.

Among them, Sun Wu is the one who has attracted the most attention. So far, Dortmund players have fouled Sun Wu more than eight times.

In the 78th minute, Magath made a second adjustment, replacing Raul with Draxler. The 33-year-old veteran's role in this situation is quite limited, and Raul's physical strength can no longer support him. , after all, ten people will fight.

"Run more, run faster." Sun Wu grabbed Draxler and quickly explained: "Go to meet Jefferson when counterattacking. If the ball is at my feet, move smarter..."

Draxler nodded vigorously, covered his mouth with his hands and said in a low voice, "Give them a little bit of power."

Of course Draxler knew that Magath had high expectations for him when he was substituted in this situation.

One minute after playing, Draxler knocked Shaheen over with a flying shovel, and the Turk fell to the ground clutching his ankle in pain.

"Well, this should be the fastest player to receive a yellow card this season, 56 seconds..." Adam Simpson said with a smile: "Draxler, an excellent Schalke player, he is not at all against the rivals in the Ruhr area." Not weak!"

Klopp jumped on the sidelines and cursed, but the home fans in the stands gave Draxler applause.

"Nice job!" Sun Wu patted Draxler on the back hard.

Although there was a red card before, this Ruhr Derby did not officially enter the white-hot stage until the last 10 minutes.

Foot-to-foot, pulling, flying shovels, even elbow strikes, knee lifts, and other actions that will definitely be called for fouls and even play cards throughout the game appear frequently.

Roaring, cursing, pushing, and confrontation with bulls appeared on every turf.

As time went on, Klopp no ​​longer counted on a crazy big win, and three points would be nice.

When the players on both sides couldn't bear their anger, Dortmund, who used quick pass and cut tactics after a high-position press, no longer had much advantage, and the turnover rate was too high.

In the 83rd minute, Hitzlsperger elbowed Shinji Kagawa and got a yellow card.

In the 85th minute, Lars Bender retaliated against Hitzelsperger and also received a yellow card.

In the 86th minute, Farfan's breakthrough from the side was overturned by Schmelzer. The referee showed a yellow card, and an angry Metzelder rushed forward and automatically received a yellow card.

Although there is not much time left, Sun Wu did not advance frequently. You must know that there are 10 people facing each other now, and there may be only one effective attack, so it cannot be so casual.

"Schalke 04 can survive until now, in fact, it is largely because of Best." Adam Simpson commented, "Under the crazy pressure of Dortmund players, only Best can pass the ball accurately..."

"I just counted that Best actually performed very well in the second half, with only 52 turnovers in 5 passes, and 4 of them were forward passes." Adam Simpson sighed regretfully, "It's a pity that Mandzukic was fined. Now, Rakitic is also replaced, it is difficult for Best to organize an effective offensive with ten players, and in order to help defend him, he retreated deeply."

Before the words fell, a burst of loud shouts suddenly erupted from the stands.

Metzelder made a big clearance from the backcourt, and Hummels overwhelmed Farfan without any suspense and gave the ball to Shaheen who ran back to catch the ball.

This is the 90th minute of the game.

At this time, Sun Wu, who focused on defense in the second half, suddenly advanced at high speed.

"Be careful!" Lars Bender reminded loudly.

But it's too late!
Shaheen tried to stop the ball with his chest, but Sun Wugao raised his leg and kicked the ball away first, and pushed the Turk down with a shoulder resistance!
"Sun Wu steals the ball!"
