Chapter 103 Nightmarish First Half
At noon on March 14th, the Dundee United team set off from Edinburgh to Dusseldorf, the hometown of the German poet Heine.
The flight to Germany is of course to play a game, but Gelsenkirchen, where Schalke 04 is located, does not have an airport. Dundee United can only fly to the nearby Dusseldorf International Airport first, and then take a bus there.
The famous Ruhr area in Germany actually has only one Dortmund airport, and it is only a small airport, so foreign teams flying to the Ruhr area to play European games basically fly to the nearby Dusseldorf.
Dusseldorf was originally adjacent to the Ruhr area, and the location of the international airport is very close to the Ruhr area. The one-way bus only takes more than half an hour, just like the airport in the Ruhr area.
Therefore, Dusseldorf International Airport is the main transportation terminal for people in the Ruhr area to enter and exit Germany.
When the Dundee United team arrived at the airport, there were already Schalke 04 fans waiting for them.
Shalke~~~~Shalke!!
Shalke~~~~Shalke!!
As soon as the Dundee United team came out of the airport, a large group of Schalke 04 fans wearing dark blue jerseys shouted in unison.
Fans in the Ruhr area never lack passion.
Fortunately, they only used this method to intimidate Dundee United, and there were no other drastic methods. The Dundee United team boarded the bus smoothly and headed to Gelsenkirchen, a city in the northern Ruhr area.
The next step is to take a good rest, adjust the state, and wait for the big battle tomorrow night.
※※※
At 9:00 pm on March 15th, German time, the second round of the 2011/12 UEFA Europa League round of 16, Schalke 04's home game against Dundee United is about to begin.
Before the game started, the Schalke Stadium had already turned into a blue ocean.
This is the first time for Jackie Lee to play in a stadium with a capacity of more than 60,000 people. Although it is an away game, it has to be said that the scene is indeed quite spectacular.
It was already three o'clock in the middle of the night in China, and the live broadcast of Xinlang Sports also started. This time they arranged for a slightly famous commentator Shen Yunfei.
This game is the second round of the match between the two teams. Dundee United and Schalke 04 drew 2:2 at home. Dundee United's Chinese star Li Chenglong passed and shot, and Schalke 04's side It was veteran Raul who scored twice.
In the history of the Europa League, Schalke 04 won the championship in the 96/97 season, and their head coach at that time was Hub Stevens who is currently sitting on the coaching bench, and Dundee United On the other hand, they also reached the Europa League final in the 86/87 season, but failed to win the championship.
In this game, Dundee United still has the same lineup as the previous game, but Schalke 04 has already sent the strongest lineup.
Goalkeeper: Tim Hildebrand;
Defenders: Christian Fox, Matip, Papadopoulos, Uchida Atsuto;
Midfielders: Lewis Holtby, Jermaine Jones, Draxler;
Forwards: Raul, Huntelaar, Farfan.
As soon as the game started, the scene fell directly to the side of Schalke 04.
Draxler~~~ Nice steal!!
Cross pass~~~Hunterel~~~header!!
Goooooooal~~~~
The German commentary went straight to the top from the beginning.
Only 5 minutes into the game, Jackie Lee didn't even touch the TM ball. Schalke 04 counterattacked on the spot after the first attack was fruitless. Barry Douglas made a direct mistake and sent the ball to Draxler's feet, and then the opponent easily A high ball passed to the restricted area, and Huntelaar scored with a header in the restricted area.
Haha, the Scots are probably used to playing in stadiums with more than 10,000 people for a long time. Suddenly they came to this kind of big stadium with 60,000 people, and they seemed a little at a loss. The German commentator began to sneer.
Everyone be serious, cheer up, don't be intimidated by them. Li Chenglong clapped his hands vigorously and shouted, hoping to refresh everyone.
But the effect is not obvious, and the whole team is still very wrong.
Li Chenglong desperately wanted to lead everyone to fight back, but he couldn't cooperate to a single point.
So Li Chenglong can only fight more alone, relying on his personal ability to find opportunities.
In the 23rd minute, Li Chenglong broke through the opponents Jones and Matip into the penalty area in a row, and volleyed the far corner before the Greek Papadopoulos came over.
This was almost a must-goal, but the opponent's old goalkeeper Hildebrand flew over and pushed the ball out of the post with his fingertips.
Then in the 27th minute, the opponent's full-back Fox stepped forward to assist a cross, and Gary Kenneth hit the ball with his raised arm after taking off.
The Dutch referee blew his whistle, gave the opponent a penalty, and gave Kenneth a topaz card by the way.
Huntelaar made a penalty kick and scored twice to extend the score to 2:0.
Only halfway through the first half, Dundee United fell behind 0:2, plus the terrifying atmosphere and loud shouts at the Schalke Stadium, almost everyone was stunned.
Li Chenglong was the one who didn't lose his mind, but in this situation, he could only go back and participate in the defense, hoping not to lose the ball in the first half.
But in the 41st minute before the end of the first half, the third goal came.
David Robertson and Paul Dixon made a mistake together, allowing American midfielder Jermaine Jones to find a comfortable passing lane, and then a diagonal pass went straight, Huntelaar in the penalty area swayed away Gary Kenneth rushed to the goal and shot the ball directly into the upper right corner of the goal.
Huntelaar completed a hat-trick and Schalke led Dundee United 3-0.
The red-faced Peter Houston on the sidelines seemed to have had his bones removed. He sat back on the chair and covered his chest with his hands, as if the goal just hit his heart directly.
The rest of the first half became the time for the German commentator to brag about Huntelaar.
Klaas said before the game that he would break the record in this game. He really did it. With a hat-trick in the first half, he has become the player with the most goals scored in a single season in the history of Schalke 04.
This is also Klaas's third hat-trick in the Europa League this season. His form is really good. Schalke 04 has every chance to win this year's Europa League.
In the last few minutes of the first half, Schalke 04 actually continued to launch an offensive. Fortunately, Dundee United did not give them another chance and kept the score of 0:3 until the end of the first half.
This first half was definitely like a nightmare for Dundee United. Shen Yunfei of Xinlang made a brief summary.
At this time, in the stands of the stadium, two pairs of eyes were staring at the exiting Dundee United players, to be precise, they were staring at Li Chenglong who was walking in the front.
Schalke 04 fans not far away of course know that this is the team chairman Clemens Ternis and sports director Horst Heert.
Is that kid really as powerful as you said? Tenis asked suspiciously.
His breakthrough in the first half was very spiritual. Helter answered irrelevantly.
But also failed to score, and he had only one performance in the whole first half. Tenis continued to be skeptical.
The failure to score was because Tim performed well, and we suppressed the opponent throughout the first half, which also prevented him from having many opportunities to perform. Helter continued: I specifically asked Hub and Law Well, they all admire that kid very much.
The most important thing is that he is currently only playing football in Scotland, and his worth is not high. We can afford it...
