Football irons are burning

Chapter 160 Good at Winning
In the stands, Rehhagel was also there. He came to inspect Li Tie, Zheng Zhi and Shao Jiayi, and incidentally also inspected several Kaiserslautern youth team players.

This year there are Olympic qualifiers, and all three Li Tie meet this requirement.

However, Shao Jiayi did not play, which made Rehagel a little dissatisfied. In his opinion, Shao Jiayi had better skills than Malouda, but his body was not good enough.

Seeing Li Tie's performance, Rehagel naturally has nothing to criticize. With such strength, if they go to the Olympic qualifiers, those people are still playing a fart?This is completely a champion-level player, an Olympic-age player at the Asian level, who would dare to compete with Li Tie?

Before halftime, Ballack's through pass penetrated Kaiserslautern's defense.

Kirsten turned around and volleyed, but the ball was blocked again.

The referee also blew the whistle and Kaiserslautern led 2-0 at halftime.

Back in the locker room, Magath didn't say much, the team was operating normally, he just had to make a few substitutions and adjustments.

Not long after the start of the second half, he replaced Drogba with Klose.

Drogba was stared too closely at the back and did not play a big role. Now that Klose is used, he naturally hopes to change and make the offense more efficient.

After Klose came up, it turned out that his running position was more thief than Drogba.

This is a center forward with great awareness.

After Li Tie saw his running position, he also consciously passed the ball for him, and at the same time asked his teammates to pass the ball to Klose.

In the 66th minute, Li Tie made a long pass, and Klose headed the ball a little. After stopping the ball with his chest, he pulled the side, and then made a slightly clumsy pass with his feet. After twisting and twisting a few times, he really got him a shooting angle.

Klose volleyed, and the ball bounced off Nowotny's leg. Ruud stopped immediately while running, hooked his foot, then turned around and volleyed, the ball hit the net, 3:0!

Although Ruud van Nistelrooy scored the goal, Klose's role was still greater.

Magath's substitution undoubtedly played a role.

He also proudly waved his fist on the sidelines, obviously very satisfied with his substitution.

The current score is basically safe, with 3 points in hand, there is still a taste of bloodshed.

"Slow down and defend well!"

Magath yelled at the field twice and sat back.

The game continues.

Leverkusen has no motivation to attack. They don't need to work hard. The score is already like this. What else is there to work hard for?
It's better to save your energy and deal with other teams.

Therefore, both sides also have some tacit understanding.

Then the two sides changed players, and the game time passed quickly. In the end, Kaiserslautern won another game at home 3:0 and continued to lead the standings.

"Our ability to seize opportunities is good. I am very satisfied with the players. They are very good at winning, good at controlling the situation, and their tactical execution is very strong. This also made a good start for our away first leg of the Champions League semi-final."

At the press conference after the game, Magath was in high spirits.

Indeed, in 24 league games, they won 22 games, only drew one game and lost one game. Such a result is enough to make Magath proud. At this time last year, Kaiserslautern did not have such a good result.

Daum's tone was bleak: "The opponent played better than us, and the ball was lost a little too quickly, and the long-range shot, the players' attention was not enough. After the second ball was lost, the team was very difficult."

In another focus match, Bayern played away against rival Dortmund with a score of 2:2. This result expanded Kaiserslautern's lead over Bayern to 8 points again!
There are still 10 rounds in the league. For the stable Kaiserslautern, the lead of 8 points is still a big advantage.

The Hornets always sparked sparks against Bayern every time.

This time Bayern fell again, was stabbed twice by the frogman Blanco, and only scored one point.

Kaiserslautern picked up a bargain, thanks to Dortmund, the so-called two tigers are fighting, there is always a tiger with a helper.

Bayern stumbled, not only Kaiserslautern benefited, after Hertha Berlin beat Borussia 2:4 away, the points also surpassed Bayern by 1 point, 7 points behind Kaiserslautern, ranking second.

Bayern was at a disadvantage in catching up, but was overtaken by the pursuers behind, and the position of the second child was a bit precarious.

In addition to Li Tie, the hottest player in the Bundesliga now is Deisler, who scores goals and assists every game. Not only that, he also represented the German team in the European Cup qualifiers and scored goals.

In the future, he will definitely become the banner of German football, and another banner may be Ballack.

If there are two flags, German football will still come out of the World Cup defeat in no time.

This point is worth learning from Chinese football.

The situation in the league has basically formed a situation in which Kaiserslautern outshines, Hertha Berlin and Bayern catch up.

The media is unanimously optimistic about Kaiserslautern being able to lead to the end of the league and successfully defend the title.

Bild: Kaiserslautern with Li Tie is invincible!Their lead has expanded to 8 points, which is likely to become the final lead. If Bayern can't beat Kaiserslautern in a direct dialogue, then there is no extravagance to hope for the championship this season. Although Hertha Berlin also performed very well, their weakness is also obvious. Deisler alone, Deisler is also tired sometimes.In fact, this season's championship battle is over, and Kaiserslautern will win the last league championship of this century.

Kicker Magazine: Bayern lost the chain again. They made many mistakes in a season. This is not the quality that a championship team should have. Hitzfeld still has a lot to do.The stability of Kaiserslautern made other teams despair.

Süddeutsche Zeitung: Facts have proved that Kaiserslautern is more mature than other teams. Magath has brought more stable performance to the team, and their tactics can always be stronger than their opponents.

Red Devils Daily: In the third-line battle, Kaiserslautern is not worrying at all. It is gratifying to expand the lead. Other teams can only compete for No.2.

On the night the league ended, Kaiserslautern had already set off for Madrid.

In the semi-finals of the Champions League, it is an advantage to go first and then host.

The opponent Real Madrid is a strong opponent. In the Champions League, they have won the championship seven times, which is the team with the most championships.

They are also the defending Champions League champions.

It's just that there have been few successful defending teams in recent years.

The outside world is generally optimistic about Real Madrid playing at home.

Another group of opponents in the Champions League, Juventus and Manchester United meet, is also a focus of battle.

Juventus defeated Inter Milan and reached the semi-finals through a penalty shootout.

And Manchester United even fell behind 1:3 and defeated their opponents 4:0 at home, advancing strongly.

The media is also more optimistic about Manchester United, thinking that Manchester United will meet Real Madrid in the final.

After arriving in Madrid, the team went directly to the hotel to rest.

Arriving in Madrid in advance, naturally attaches great importance to this game.

The next afternoon, the team went to get used to the venue, and the organizers did not make things difficult. Real Madrid, as a giant, still has this quality.

The next day, the players went to Madrid for half a day, shopping and playing games, and they had a good time.

Some animals also harmed some girls in Madrid, but Li Tie did not.

After leaving China this time, he has already made some mistakes in Hong Kong, and now he dare not make them again, lest he become a scumbag in the future.

Madrid is indeed a beautiful city with a well-developed tourism industry. There are indeed many places to play. There are many squares and the architectural style is very unique. This is somewhat different from the German architectural style, let alone the Chinese one. The difference is even greater.

The food is also okay, there are a lot of seafood, and the beef tastes the same.

Li Tie also bought a lot of things and sent them back to the Northeast, including some children's toys.

Going to an away game has a certain commemorative significance, but it's not that Li Tie insists on supporting Spain's GDP.

On Wednesday night, the pre-match press conference began, and Li Tie participated with Magath.

This time he also became the protagonist, and almost all the reporters wanted to ask Li Tie questions.

The first question was Spanish reporter Sarah directly asked: "Li Tie, do you have any plans to join Real Madrid? When will you take action?"

Li Tie laughed and said: "Real Madrid is a great team. It is a team that many players like, and I am no exception. But Real Madrid is not what everyone wants. I think I may not meet the requirements of Real Madrid. Haha, maybe I will come here in the future, but no one knows the exact time."

Seeing that Li Tie had a good opinion of the home team, Sarah took the opportunity to say: "Will Kaiserslautern adopt a defensive-oriented strategy in tomorrow's game?"
