After defeating Wolfsburg, Schalke 04 has won six straight victories since the start of 2010, leading Bayern Munich by three points to lead the standings.
Although Magath and Sun Wu have discussed several times, they all think that this Schalke 04 has a lot of room for improvement in offense, but the internal atmosphere of the team is quite good. The racial discrimination of Cologne fans unexpectedly made Schalke 04 Have a strong cohesion in a short time.
Magath was quite surprised, but also very happy, because the next game is the second of two games that the club, players and fans value most in a season, the Ruhr Derby.
Derby in the Ruhr District can be traced back to more than 90 years ago. Both cities are located along the Ruhr River. Both cities started with coal and mining. Both have fan organizations with bottom-level workers as their core. Competition between them has spread from the economy. At all levels of society, after the mining industry gradually declined, the duel between Schalke 04 and Dortmund relied on the ancient competitive mentality of the two cities.
These two teams are natural enemies. Even in Dortmund's neighborhood, blue is not allowed, and yellow is also a permanent enemy of Schalke.
Fans allowed the team to lose to Bayern Munich, allowing them to raise the salad plate for more than a decade, but never allowed the team to lose the Ruhr Derby without resistance, Dortmund won the team for the first time in history Derby’s Augusta Lenz is still praised by the Hornet fans.
Although Sun Wu, who took part in the Ruhr Derby for the first time and even participated in the real Derby for the first time, paid attention to this, in general, it still considered this to be a normal game, even if Westman and Noy He solemnly reminded him of the matter.
On February 26th, Derby Day.
From the early morning of this day, the blue and yellow currents gradually gathered from the two cities, forming a two-color ocean outside the Veltins Arena.
The 16-year-old Leo quietly came to Gelsenkirchen from the city of Dortmund. Instead of going to the Veltins Arena for the first time, he found a public toilet to take off his Dortmund jersey and replace it with the most beloved. Blue jersey.
But when he ran out of the court, he was caught by his classmates. A tall man with thick hair directly picked Leo. "Damn, you are a Schalke fan!"
The timid Leo’s lower leg shivered, reluctantly explaining:
I never admitted to being a Dortmund fan directly, and you took me to the South Stand last time...
The classmates on the edge all clamored. This little guy came to Dortmund last summer to study. Although he is not from Gelsenkirchen, he did not expect to be a fan of a dead enemy.
"Hey, what are you doing!" A little blond girl suddenly appeared and reprimanded: "A group of bumblebees bully a miner fan?"
Without waiting for the reaction of the group of little guys across the street, the little girl had shouted not far away, and then seventeen or eight young men in blue jerseys rushed over, all fighting to start.
"Beep beep..." At the critical moment when the sword was drawn, a middle-aged policeman appeared with a siren blowing to separate the two sides. "Both listen to me. If anyone doesn't want to watch the game, they can follow me, but I will teach him hard, because He made me fail to see how Schalke taught the hornet hard!"
Uh, this is also a home advantage. The young Bumblebee fans left without fear, and the leading tall man stared at Leo, "Damn, come back and clean you up!"
"Oh oh!" Schalke fans cheered and gave the middle-aged police a thumbs up.
"Your name is Leo? This name is really wasted! You are nothing like a lion!" The little girl frowned at Leo Leo. "Follow us and hope you don't lose Schalke's face!"
"Sabina, this little guy is wearing size 38 too!" a young man said loudly, "Leo, maybe you can join us!"
Leo was surprised to find that this group of fans wore the No. 38 jersey.
"We all like Best, you know, he was racially discriminated two weeks ago, and we will support him!" Sabina greeted her companions, "Come in, maybe I can get Best's signature today!" "
"Signature? It is said that Best's signature is in Chinese..." Leo trot behind Sabina, "Why can you get it..."
Walking into the stadium and walking to the stands, Sabina pointed to a middle-aged man wearing a miner's costume on the court and proudly said, "Look, that's my dad!"
"Oh, I see, that's the club's fan representative!" Leo pulled out a large Best poster from his arms excitedly, "Sabina, can you help?"
"It's no problem!" Sabina took the bag, but she was conditional, "Are you guys, are you ready? You must suppress the hornet today!"
"Blue and white, how much I love you!"
"Blue and white, don't leave me!"
"Blue and white are the colors of the sky."
"Blue and white, the color of our uniform."
"If we have a kingdom, we will build it like the Schalke."
"Girls are so young and beautiful, everyone has to wear blue and white to go for a walk..."
The not-so-thrilling tune gradually sounded in the stands, suppressing the singing of away fans.
Sun Wu was a little surprised. It was an hour before the game started. Is it still warming up? Has it started so early?
"This is the Derby in the Ruhr." Neuer patted Sun Wu on the shoulder. "Hope you won't be scared."
Be scared? Sun Wu pouted and said nothing, but Rakitic on the other side nodded in agreement, "Best, you know, there are a lot of accidents in the Derby in the Ruhr area."
The Ruhr Derby is one of the most popular Derby in Europe. Sun Wu has been known for a long time, but in the previous life he focused on Dortmund, the large patterns on the south stands... he lacked understanding of Schalke 04.
It's half the sea, half the flame... Sun Wu looked up at the stands~EbookFREE.me~ After a while, he asked: "Manuel, will the referee have a tendency?"
"Derby in the Ruhr area, don't count on the home whistle. I said that this is very different from other Bundesliga games!" Neuer said solemnly: "Best, you can win this derby before you can Really accepted by fans."
"The club's official fan organization has not invited you to participate in any activities so far. If they win this derby, they will send out invitations." Westman came over, "Come on, Best."
Today’s captain Westman looks murderous. In 2007, he led Schalke 04 to occupy the top of the standings for three months. As a result, the second game Derby was not lower than 0 to 2 Dortmund. Since then, the team’s mentality collapsed and Lien Chan Defeated, and finally passed the salad plate.
Before the game started, Sun Wu felt the derby, when Dortmund players began to warm up, Sun Wu greeted the acquaintances around him.
"Hey, Matz!"
But Humels walked past Sun Wu expressionlessly, with no response at all.
