The Dortmund team took a half-day vacation on this day and resumed training in the afternoon.
That night, the remaining two Champions League quarter-final rounds started at the Camp Nou and Juventus Arena.
After ninety minutes of play, Bayern Munich defeated Juventus 2: 0 away and won 4-0 with a total score. The surprising first leg away 2: 2 draw against Paris Saint-Germain's Barcelona returned to Camp Nou Draw 1: 1, with a total score of 3: 3, and advance with more away goals.
With the end of these two games, all four teams that advanced to the quarter-finals of the 2012-2013 UEFA Champions League were released, with two seats in the Bundesliga and two seats in the La Liga, namely Dortmund, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid and Barcelona.
The 2012-2013 UEFA Champions League semi-final draw was held at 12 noon on April 12, local European time, at the UEFA headquarters.
It is worth mentioning that the semi-final draw was the first in the history of the Champions League. In the past, the semi-finals were automatically matched according to the upper and lower half.
The semi-final draw was still hosted by UEFA Secretary General Infantino. Van Nistelrooy, who has never touched the Champions League in his career, served as a draw guest.
Prior to this, the mainstream European media and the Chinese media conducted a detailed analysis of the possible results of this draw.
The result of the draw in the two semifinals is nothing more than six results, Dortmund VS Bayern Munich, Real Madrid VS Barcelona, ​​Dortmund VS Real Madrid, Bayern Munich VS Barcelona, ​​Dortmund VS Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid VS Bayern Munich.
The only difference is who owns the guest.
Judging by the nature of UEFA's draw, Chinese media believe that Dortmund may eventually draw to Barcelona, ​​followed by Bayern Munich.
why?
The first is that Dortmund was eliminated in the quarter-finals. The opponent is Barcelona, ​​and the process is even more controversial.
Secondly, Dortmund faced Real Madrid and Malaga in the group stage and knockout. The semi-finals are likely to touch Barcelona that has not played in the Champions League this season.
In addition, Messi, who was interviewed by the media after Barcelona's thrilling draw with Paris Saint-Germain, once said: "Who touched? Of course it was Dortmund."
Faced with the reporter's 'why', Messi gave a smile and did not continue to answer.
Kyle, the injured Dortmund captain, publicly supported the team ’s draw in an interview with The Pictorial. His basis was ‘where to fall and where to climb. ’
Dortmund's promotion to the quarterfinals of the Champions League this season, the biggest hero Tang Zheng interviewed by media reporters but did not particularly hope to meet the team, he said: "The Champions League has entered the semi-finals, no matter which team they encounter, they must invest One hundred or even two hundred of concentration, so everyone is the same. "
The local reporter in Dortmund hopes that Dortmund can draw Bayern Munich. Dortmund has had amazing results for Bayern Munich in the past three seasons.
If Bayern Munich is drawn in the Champions League semi-finals, it is undoubtedly a ticket to the new Wembley Stadium in advance.
Coincidentally, the local media in Munich talked about Bayern Munich's least desirable opponent is Dortmund.
Of course, they have a sounding reason-hope that the first two Bundesliga teams in the Champions League semi-finals can continue to the Champions League final.
Before the UEFA headquarters draw the Champions League semi-final draw, the host will first explain the relevant rules of the lottery ceremony according to the regulations, and then review the essence of the four quarter-finals.
The match between Dortmund and Malaga is not the focus of journalists, fans and experts, but the course of the game is ups and downs, full of magic.
When the time came to play, Zorke, the sports director who represented Dortmund at the lottery, was naturally straight and straight.
Immediately, the 2012-2013 season UEFA Champions League semi-final draw ceremony officially began.
Lottery guest Van Nistelrooy first picked out Bayern Munich, the atmosphere of the entire lottery scene became very weird.
The live guide kept snapping the drawing representatives of the other three teams. Only Dortmund's legendary sports director Zolke was very calm. He squeezed his chin in his right hand and even nodded.
But the team that was drawn next was not Dortmund, but ... Real Madrid!
Four teams in the Champions League semi-finals, two of which were drawn, the remaining two teams were automatically paired, and Dortmund was drawn to Barcelona!
But the result of the lottery still needs to be continued. According to the rules of the Champions League semi-final lottery, the team drawn first will take the lead and then the guest.
The third team that Van Nistelrooy's gold finger drew was Dortmund, which means that Dortmund and Barcelona's 2012-2013 UEFA Champions League semi-finals are first-in-second.
※※※
The 2012-2013 UEFA Champions League semi-final draw was held at 12 noon on Friday, European local time. The Dortmund team watched the live broadcast in the tactical hall of the Stoberari training center as before.
When Bayern Munich reached Real Madrid, everyone's expressions changed significantly.
After all, their ideal opponent is Bayern Munich.
Not to mention the overall suppression of Bayern Munich in the past three or more seasons, the long distance of Germany to Spain affects physical fitness.
When the competition for the league championship is fiercest, a better physical reserve can ensure the advantage, otherwise many skills and tactics are difficult to play.
The result of the draw of the Champions League semifinals there has just come out, and the global media here have fully analyzed the next four Champions League semifinals.
Bayern Munich and Real Madrid were drawn together in the UEFA Champions League semi-final draw last season. In the two semi-finals, Bayern Munich defeated Real Madrid with a penalty shootout to advance to the final.
Dortmund and Barcelona were drawn together in the Champions League quarter-final last season. If it is not the reason for the referee, it is estimated that the team that advanced to the semi-finals of the Champions League last season will be Dortmund instead of Barcelona.
This time the two teams were drawn together again.
Of course, compared to last season, Dortmund this season should be more optimistic.
At the beginning of the season, the Barcelona Club officially held a press conference and announced that it will not renew the contract with coach Guardiola after the contract ends. In January this year, Bayern Munich officially announced that Guardiola will become their team's head coach next season.
So some media want to see Bayern Munich and Barcelona ‘fight hard’ to see if Guardiola is showing his favor to the new club or proving himself.
However, Dortmund and Barcelona are drawn together again, and the highlights are equally full, but they lack some points compared to Bayern Munich and Barcelona.
At the same time, Messi tweeted a meaningful message on his personal social networking site: "Long-awaited, yearning for the champion!"
A five-star UEFA Champions League logo was added at the back.
Messi's intention to express is very obvious, and the game with Dortmund has been waiting for a long time, and then beat them to target the championship!
These topics are naturally covered by the media, and it is the domestic leagues in front of Dortmund and Barcelona.
Four rounds of the Champions League semi-finals in the two rounds will be split at 20:45 on April 23/24, European time and April 20, 20:45 on May 1.
On the weekend, Dortmund was a guest guest challenger to the newly promoted Grethof.
This game can be said to be no difficulty for Dortmund. Gretehoff as a newly promoted team, they have a poor adaptability to the Bundesliga. In the 28th round of the league, they only scored 15 points in the past. Seldorf scored 14 points, nine points from Augsburg, the penultimate league.
With the last six rounds left in the league, it is unlikely that you want to complete the relegation.
In addition, Dortmund achieved a major reversal in the middle of the week, and the overall morale of the team has soared. Even if the staff makes a large-scale rotation, they will take the home team Grethofer lightly.
1: 6
The home team is in the front and the visiting team is in the back.
At the same time in another game, Bayern defeated Nuremberg 4-0 at home, so the gap between Dortmund and Bayern points is still two points.
Perhaps really as the German media said, the 2012-2013 season Bundesliga championship competition will continue to the second round of this season the German national derby.
※※※
In the last 29 rounds of the 2012-2013 Bundesliga, Bayern Munich and Dortmund had 77 points and 75 points respectively.
It can be said that the two teams have rallied with each other since the first round of the national derby. Dortmund lost to Wolfsburg at home by an accident of 2: 3. From the seventeenth round to the present, they have won 13 consecutive victories.
Bayern Munich did not let much, and won 12 straight.
It is worth mentioning that the two teams set a record at the same time-the longest winning streak in the second half of the league.
And Dortmund can enjoy a record here-the longest winning streak in the Bundesliga.
In this regard, the German media is quite crazy. At this time, they automatically ignore the Champions League semi-finals and put the records created by the two teams to see when their records will continue ...
Of course, the Dortmund team that entered the Champions League semi-finals did not have much thought to focus too much on the reports of these unrelated champions. They have to start a consecutive week of double matches.
The German Cup semi-finals against Freiburg at home next week, and Mainz at home on the weekend.
Immediately, the home court will usher in the adjustment of Barcelona.
There is no doubt that the most important of the three games is the Champions League semi-finals, but the home game against Freiburg and Mainz should not be let down.
The German Cup entered the semi-finals, and the next step is the final.
There are only five final rounds left in the league, two points behind Bayern, and any mistakes will lead to the championship, and may even affect the semi-finals of the Champions League.
Although Dortmund now has some injuries, Klopp's use of bench players is very reasonable. The 6: 1 victory over Grethof away proved that the bench players can also shoulder the responsibility of winning.
In the middle of the week, Dortmund sat at the Westfa Lun stadium against Freiburg.
By the middle of next week, Kaolo is the first leg of the UEFA Champions League semi-finals against Barcelona. Klopp still made a lot of adjustments to the starting lineup. Sahin, Schieber and Santana, who rarely play games, all get the chance to play.
And they did not disappoint Klopp's trust, 2: 0, Dortmund Freiburg, the first to advance to this season's German Cup final, and this is also their fourth consecutive season to enter the event finals.
In the past three seasons, they have all won championships and created the team that has won the most consecutive German Cup championships, so many media are optimistic that Dortmund will achieve four consecutive championships in this event.
Four days later, Dortmund continued to sit at Westfalun Stadium against the league opponent Mainz.
There are still four days before the first leg of the UEFA Champions League semi-final. Klopp did not make any adjustments to the lineup. He sent a lot of work to make the players find the game as soon as possible.
During the game, the live guide was sharp-eyed. He took advantage of the gap in the game to give Barcelona coach Guardiola who came to watch the game.
Interestingly, when the camera gave Guardiola, a huge deafening booing sounded on the scene, giving it to the current Barcelona coach Guardiola who will become Bayern Munich's head coach next season.
Tang Zheng wearing the captain's armband also saw Guardiola from the large LCD screen on the spot, and he grinned.
Perhaps it was the reason why Guardiola came to the Westfalun stadium. Tang Zheng used the long shot to break the deadlock in the next attack.
Three minutes later, it was Tang Zheng again, and his connection with Lewandowski scored again.
2: 0
This is the score of the game to half an hour.
Taking into account that the UEFA Champions League semi-finals against Barcelona in the middle of next week, Tang Zheng, who controls the pace of the game with Sha Xin, deliberately slowed down the pace of the game, and at this stage of the league, Mainz, who has no chance of European competition and no downgrade pressure this season How much pressure it puts on Dortmund.
In the end, Dortmund defeated Mainz 2-0 at home and prepared for Barcelona with a 14-game winning streak.
At the same time kickoff in another game, the visiting Bayern are very strong, they 6: 1 victory over the home team Hanover 96, maintaining a two-point advantage over Dortmund.
However, neither team paid too much attention to the issue of points. Their first consideration was that the league did not take the initiative to make mistakes.
In addition, after the UU reading www.uukanshu.com after finishing the league Dortmund and Bayern's attention must be shifted to prepare for the next Champions League semi-finals.
Dortmund vs. Barcelona, ​​Bayern Munich vs. Real Madrid.
The semi-finals of the Champions League this season are from the Bundesliga and La Liga. The two leagues each occupy two seats, and avoiding the same league opponents on the draw.
The Champions League La Liga once appeared in the 1999-2000 season, Real Madrid VS Valencia.
If Dortmund and Bayern Munich lose to Barcelona and Real Madrid respectively, this season's Champions League final will have the fourth Champions League final derby after the La Liga, Serie A derby and Premier League derby.
Taking into account this possibility, the German media took the lead in collecting the tactical loopholes of Real Madrid and Barcelona from the results of the Champions League semi-final draw.
The same is true of the Spanish media.
In order for the Spanish national derby to appear in the Champions League final this season, they collected information everywhere.
