Midfielder Ruler

The 15th round of the Bundesliga in the 2012-2013 season has all ended. Bayern, which lost 1:2 at home to Dortmund, still ranks first in the league, but their advantage is only one point left.

If they did not perform well in the two league rounds before the winter break, they are likely to be overtaken by Dortmund in one fell swoop.

Of course, this possibility is relatively low.

Bayern's two league opponents before the winter break are strong, namely Augsburg and Monchengladbach.

On the contrary, Dortmund may lose points if it is a little careless, because the next opponents are Wolfsburg and Hoffenheim, which have performed sluggishly this season but have a strong team background.

Nearly halfway through the league, Wolfsburg and Hoffenheim are both in the relegation circle. The best way to get out of the relegation circle is to win.

However, the schedule is more favorable for Dortmund. After playing Bayern away, they returned to Westphalia to meet the challenges of Manchester City and Wolfsburg respectively.

The Dortmund players who took the train back to Dortmund were warmly welcomed by the local Dortmund fans, especially Tang Zheng, who became the most popular player in the team, and even the head coach Klopp was 'jealous'.

Flowers, applause, cheers, everything.

Although there is still a Champions League group match in the middle of the week, the head coach Klopp still gave the players a day and a half off to reward the team for defeating Bayern in an away game to narrow the league points difference, which means that the time to resume training is Monday afternoon.

After Tang Zheng arrived in Dortmund, he took a flight to Lyon, and then watched a match of the French women's football league in the afternoon. His girlfriend Zhao Lina represented the Lyon women's football team as the starting goalkeeper and played the entire game, and made several amazing saves.

That night, a local French reporter photographed Tang Zheng and Zhao Lina having dinner together affectionately, and then checked into the local five-star Hilton Hotel.

Tang Zheng and Zhao Lina have been in a relationship for more than a year, and many fans have gotten used to it, but there are still many female fans who feel very sad.

They can't accept such a high-profile show of love between a male god and other women...

After a night of tenderness, when he woke up in the morning, Tang Zheng lowered his head and kissed Zhao Lina's smooth forehead, starting a day of morning exercise.

But the morning exercise here is not some kind of morning exercise, but a habitual exercise for the body.

In order to maintain physical condition and maintain figure,

Every morning when Tang Zheng woke up, he would do five hundred push-ups and around one thousand sit-ups.

It's just that with Zhao Lina's presence, the morning exercise is different.

For example, push-ups, Tang Zheng can look directly at Zhao Lina while supporting the ground with both hands, just like the dog-abuse-style push-ups that often appear in Weibo, and do a kiss.

The same goes for sit-ups.

At noon of the same day, Tang Zheng took the flight back to Dortmund, and then went directly to the Stobelari training center.

Tang Zheng had just finished changing his equipment and was about to go to the training ground to warm up in advance. His friend Hummels came over and teased with a half-smile: Hey, I heard that yesterday you and the goalkeeper girlfriend stayed in the hotel from nine o'clock in the evening until ten o'clock the next day. Point, can the training be maintained?

Is it itchy? Tang Zheng raised the corner of his mouth and looked at Hummels playfully.

Hearing this, Hummels backed away in an instant, how dare he continue to tease Tang Zheng?

Numerous cases in the past have proved that Tang Zheng likes to use force to conquer you without saying a word.

Dortmund has secured first place in the UEFA Champions League group stage in the 2012-2013 season. In the last round of the week against Manchester City, Klopp used a large number of substitute players.

Tang Zheng, Gotze, Reus, Kuba and Lewandowski appeared on the bench.

The starting goalkeeper is Weidenfeller, the four defenders are Kirsch, Hummels, Santana and Schmelzer, the double midfielders Gundogan and Sven Bender, and the three forwards are Gross Kreutz , teenagers Leitner and Perisic, and Scibel at the top.

In order to compete for a seat in the Europa League, Manchester City's main force went out.

Goalkeeper Joe Hart, defenders Maicon, Kompany, Lescott and Nastasic, double midfielder Barry partnered with Javi Garcia, three forwards Nasri, Tevez and Aguero , Dzeko was at the top.

The formation submitted by Manchester City to the official is 4231, but it is actually a very aggressive 433 formation.

Obviously, Mancini fought for the Europa League!

But from the perspective of the game process, the performance of Dortmund's substitute players sitting at the Westphalon Stadium is not worse than that of Manchester City's main players, and even better than Manchester City's guest in terms of game involvement.

The two sides have offense and defense against each other, but they are only a little short of scoring goals.

At the end of the first half, the score is still 0:0

In the second half, they changed sides and fought again, and the main players who were on the sidelines from the bench began to come off the bench.

The first player to replace him was Tang Zheng. His appearance instantly changed the situation of the game. His handling and handling of the ball was very reasonable, and his passing was more sudden and concealed. Manchester City's defense gradually became tight and overwhelmed.

With Royce and Lewandowski coming off the bench, the visiting Manchester City no longer had the power to resist.

In the seventy-eighth minute, Tang Zheng's precise guidance at 45 degrees on the right found Lewandowski who was going forward, and the latter scored a header to break the goal guarded by Joe Hart.

1:0

Dortmund, who played in the town, leads Manchester City.

And this score is also the final score of the game.

The Dortmund team has already qualified ahead of schedule, so there is absolutely no need to expand the lead, just win, even a draw is acceptable, even a loss is ok.

In another group game at the same time, Real Madrid beat Ajax 4:1 at home.

Despite this, the losing Ajax still overwhelmed Manchester City to qualify for the top 32 of the Europa League this season.

The 2012-2013 UEFA Champions League group stage is all over, and the sixteen teams that have advanced to the knockout round have all been released.

What is surprising is that Shakhtar Donetsk, who sits at home, lost 0:1 to Juventus, so that the defending champion Chelsea, who had a big home victory, was eliminated.

In addition, this season's UEFA Champions League is a bit strong with the team that qualified second in the group, such as the Gunners Arsenal and AC Milan, and the second most powerful group is undoubtedly the Galacticos Real Madrid.

No. 1 in each group, except Barcelona in the same football association and Dortmund in the same group do not have to worry about encountering Real Madrid, the first in other groups is terrified.

As for the 2012-2013 UEFA Champions League 1/8 final draw, we have to wait until 12:00 noon on December 20, European time, at the UEFA headquarters in Nyon.

Before that, Dortmund still have three games.

Two league matches and a German Cup.

Dortmund has performed well recently, winning eight consecutive league victories, chasing from a maximum of nine points behind to only one point behind in one fell swoop, and their morale is good.

As a guest, Wolfsburg has not won in the past three rounds, ranked 15th in the league, hovering in the relegation zone...

For such a team, no one would think that Wolfsburg can score points at the Westfalenstadion.

What's more, the main players who got a rest in the middle of the week all appeared on the stage, and Wolfsburg, who is a guest, has a chance to score points?

Nobody cares!

But when the whistle sounded at the end of the game, the scoreboard at Westphalia Stadium showed a shocking score.

2:3

The home team is at the front and the visiting team is at the back.

No one can believe that Dortmund, who just defeated Bayern as a guest, will lose at home to the demoralized Wolfsburg...

Moreover, Dortmund has not lost at home in the league for four seasons. The last home league loss dates back to the 2:4 home loss to Wolfsburg in the 34th round of the 2007-2008 season.

It is equivalent to saying that Dortmund's unbeaten home game has unknowingly reached 75 games, second only to Chelsea's 86 home games unbeaten in the Jinyuan era.

Looking at the Bundesliga, it is already an insurmountable milestone.

It just so happened that such a milestone was broken by Wolfsburg, which is currently in an unsatisfactory league situation, which somewhat caught the media and fans off guard.

Borussia Dortmund, whose main force was exhausted, lost at home to Wolfsburg. As the captain, Tang Zheng couldn't blame him. He covered his face with his hands, looking very painful.

Now is the critical moment of chasing points. After finally catching up to only one point away from Bayern, a loss in a game is likely to turn the point difference into four points, which is somewhat unacceptable in my heart.

In this game, Tang Zheng's luck was not very good. His one shot in front of the goal and the sudden shot from outside the penalty area were rejected by the home post...

In a later league match, Bayern defeated Augsburg 2-0 away, extending their points lead to four points again. At the same time, relying on Dortmund's home loss, they won the 2012-2013 Bundesliga half-time championship one round ahead of schedule. .

The points were expanded to four points again, and they won the league half-time championship ahead of schedule, and the Bayern fans felt confident again.

Many Bayern fans mocked Dortmund fans on social networks, saying: What if you won the national derby? What about ten consecutive victories? Didn't you take the initiative to make mistakes and expand the score?

The Dortmund fans were somewhat suffocated, but they didn't explode on the spot, but endured it, and waited until the moment when the league points overtook!

What's so great about a four-point gap?

The lead continues until the end of the season to be considered a win!

The unexpected loss at home in the league, and the good mood of defeating Bayern in the away game disappeared, replaced by depression.

Head coach Klopp did not follow the practice of one game a week to give the team a holiday, but increased the intensity of training.

The unexpected 2:3 loss to Wolfsburg at home on the weekend was due to luck, but it was more due to the decline in the players' attitude towards the game. They believed that they beat Real Madrid to rank first in the Champions League and defeated Bayern in the away game. It is difficult to find opponents in the entire Bundesliga.

No, it was a blow to the head.

From the perspective of Klopp's coaching, it is very time to lose now.

If the decline in game attitude continues to the second half of the season, it will be a key battle without any room for maneuver.

Four points behind Bayern in the league does not mean that there is no possibility of catching up. In the second half of the season, there will be a six-point battle between each other. As long as they hold on to the points in the next period of time, Bayern will only be nervous and worried!

Dortmund's intense preparations for the league continued until the weekend away to Hoffenheim, a quasi-strong team worse than Wolfsburg.

In the past sixteen rounds of the Bundesliga in the 2012-2013 season, Hoffenheim only won three games and three draws, and lost all the remaining ten games.

The last time the league won a game dates back to the home game against Schalke 04 at the beginning of last month, when they narrowly won 3:2.

Facing a team that desperately needs a victory to take away the haze, the German media believe that it is difficult for Dortmund to win at the Rhein-Neckar Arena.

Especially the local media in Bavaria, the influential newspapers and periodicals headed by Munich Evening News and Süddeutsche Zeitung deliberately put pressure on Dortmund and created public opinion out of nothing.

This time the protagonist is Croatian winger Perisic, because he has not been reused in Dortmund, and he asked to seek a transfer in the winter transfer market.

And Dortmund means that Perisic will stay for another half a season and wait until the transfer window opens next summer before leaving.

Perisic obviously couldn't wait any longer, and even fell out with coach Klopp. The Munich media took the opportunity to fish in troubled waters for the benefit of Bayern.

No one expected that in the first game of the 17th round of the Bundesliga in the 2012-2013 season, Bayern sat in the Allianz Arena and unexpectedly drew 1:1 with Borussia Mönchengladbach...

Perhaps inspired by Bayern's home draw with Borussia Mönchengladbach, or because of shame and courage, Dortmund took away a hearty victory at the Rhein-Neckar Arena.

0:3

The home team is at the front and the visiting team is at the back.

Lewandowski made two shots and one pass, stunning the audience, leading the scorer list with 18 league goals in the half.

Due to Tang Zheng's position, he only contributed one direct assist.

However, Tang Zheng's contribution to Dortmund's offense and defense cannot be underestimated. He sent a game-high 94 passes, with a success rate of 93.4%, five successful steals, and four successful interceptions.

Although the most outstanding player is Lewandowski, in fact the most important core is Tang Zheng!

Bayern Munich drew with Borussia Mönchengladbach at home, Dortmund beat Hoffenheim away, and the difference between the two sides narrowed from four points to two points.

Two points, very subtle.

After playing the last Bundesliga game before the winter break, there is one more game to enter the Christmas break, the 2012-2013 German Cup 1/8 finals.

Borussia Dortmund hosts Hannover 96 at the Westfalenstadion, while Bayern Munich challenges Augsburg on the field.

Judging from the league ranking, Hannover 96 is stronger than Augsburg.

However, Dortmund sits at home, and the difficulty factor of winning is not high. The 2:3 loss to Wolfsburg at home in the league has a lot to do with luck.

Judging from their performance at the Rhein-Neckar-Arena on the weekend, Dortmund's tactical loss after losing Pirlo was perfectly extended by Tang Zheng.

The German Cup 1/8 final between Dortmund and Hannover 96 at home was held at 7:30pm on December 19th, German time. Because of the cold weather, the two sides entered the game a bit late, but for those who braved the severe cold to come to Wess Dortmund were not disappointed at the Tefalun Stadium.

5:1

Ninety minutes later, the scoreboard showed a shocking score.

The home team is at the front and the visiting team is at the back.

Borussia Dortmund ended the 2012 season with a strong attitude, and the only pity for the fans is that the unbeaten 75 league games at home has come to an end.
