Chapter 156: Arsenal's revenge

In the 10th round of the Bundesliga, it received the most attention after the game. There is no doubt that Schalke 04 reversal of Hoffenheim 4:3 away.
"Bruce Lee hat-trick, Schalke completes a big reversal away from home"
"Super Bruce shows off, Royal Blue tied the team history record"
In various reports, Jackie Lee, who completed his first Bundesliga hat-trick, was the focus of the topic.
In other Bundesliga games in this round, Bayern remained as stable as ever, beating the former Peking University Hamburg 3-0 in the away game, and continued to hold down Schalke 04 by one point.
This season Schalke 04 has made such a start, which can be said to be super-level performance, but so far, it has not reached the top of the list once.
Bayern and Schalke both won the game, but the team behind Schalke 04 lost points.
Frankfurt was drew 1:1 at home by the newly promoted Firth. Dortmund played a 0-0 tie with Stuttgart at home. Only Leverkusen won Düsseldorf at home 3:2. Successfully scored three points.
So in the league standings after 10 rounds, Bayern scored 25 points, Schalke 04 scored 24 points, followed by Frankfurt with 20 points, Bayer Leverkusen with 18 points, and Dortmund with 16 points.
The state of Dortmund this season is much worse than the previous two seasons. Now it has fallen out of the top four in the league, and most of it is hopeless to defend.
Before the start of the season, the German media believed that the Bundesliga title should still be Bayern and Dortmund. But so far, Dortmund has fallen behind early. Instead, Schalke 04 is competing fiercely with Bayern.
Through the performance of Li Chenglong during this period, his strength has been fully recognized. German media believe that this year's European Golden Boy Award should undoubtedly be given to Li Chenglong.
Of course, the Spanish media may recognize Isco more, and the Italian media recognize Salavi more. There is no way.

After the league, the next week is the Champions League group stage.
This time Schalke 04's opponent is still Arsenal, but he switched to his home court.
The game was only a few days away, and the German and English media began to hype the topic of the game.
Among the topics of the English media, of course, they are clamoring for revenge. Arsenal will have a massacre in Germany to be worthy of the fiasco at the Emirates Stadium.
The German media is analyzing the game situation for Schalke 04, thinking that they should get a result at home.
Since now he has scored 9 points in three consecutive victories in the group stage, Schalke 04's group qualifying is not a big problem, so more is to consider striving for the first place in the group.
First of all, Schalke 04 will definitely try to beat Arsenal at home and complete a double kill against the Gunners. This is the most perfect. If it does, Schalke 04 will basically be the first in the group.
Even if you can’t beat Arsenal at home, it’s better to avoid losing at home, that is to say, try your best to get a draw, so that you can continue to lead Arsenal by 3 points, and each other's record is still superior, and there is a great chance. Suppress Arsenal to become number one in the group.
Take a step back, even if you can't even get a draw at home, if you must lose, then you can't lose three goals at home.
As long as they don't lose three goals at home, Schalke 04 can still surpass Arsenal in terms of mutual record. Then, without losing points in the last two rounds, they can still overtake Arsenal and become the first in the group.
In the worst case, it is natural to lose three goals or more at home. In that case, Schalke 04 may not get the first place in the group.

The day before the Champions League, the Arsenal team came to Germany in advance to prepare.
This time Wenger finally lifted the ban and came back and was able to sit on the sidelines to direct the game. This is also a major highlight of this Champions League game.
After all, the Wen Limen incident in which Li Chenglong and Wenger met privately, but less than a year has passed, many people still remember that incident.
For this reason, Wenger was naturally asked about Li Chenglong by reporters.
"Li has top talent, his future is infinitely bright, he will become the top player, I was so optimistic about him a long time ago."
"He is currently the best young player in Europe, and he certainly deserves the Golden Boy Award."
"Arsenal will not give up pursuing him, he is born to play for Arsenal."
"Although I am very optimistic about him, the game is a game. Arsenal will beat Schalke 04 in the game."
In Wenger's words, he still spoke highly of Li Chenglong, and by the way, canvassed for Li Chenglong's Golden Boy Award.
At 9:45 pm on November 6, German time, the fourth round of the Champions League group stage, Schalke 04 vs. Arsenal is about to begin.
Proudly going to the Schalke Stadium has long been covered by blue. When Schalke's entire team played, the whole audience shouted together.
"Schalke~~~~Schalke!!!"
There is also a big banner on the stands: "Wenger, thank you for sending Bruce here. He has a good time here and will not return to England."
This banner is clearly aimed at Wenger's statement yesterday that Arsenal will continue to pursue Lee Chenglong.
Many people now believe that if the Wen Limen incident had not broken out, Jackie Lee would not have come to Schalke 04 to play.
In this game, Schalke 04's lineup has not changed much, that is, Draxler, who has recovered from injury, started again, but Arsenal has changed a lot in the lineup, and the starting lineup has changed five people.
"This game is not only related to the qualifying situation of the two teams, but also to Schalke's 04 undefeated record."
"As of now, Schalke 04 has been unbeaten in 18 games across the season. As long as they don't lose in this game, they can expand their unbeaten record in team history to 19 games."
At the beginning of the game, the lineup made major adjustments, and Wenger returned to Arsenal on the coaching bench, and he played fiercely at the beginning.
Only 4 minutes into the game, Wilshere, who had just returned from injury, sent a beautiful pass after passing by to help Walcott successfully break into the penalty area.
Héwedes and Jermaine Jones hurried over to close the door and attack, destroying Arsenal's offensive.
Walcott, who was knocked down in the penalty area, immediately got up and asked the referee for a penalty. The Italian whistle Rizzoli, who was responsible for whistling the game, thought about it for a while before he said there was no penalty.
This is actually a penalty kick that can be blown or not. Rizzoli probably gave the visiting team a penalty without wanting to start, causing unnecessary controversy.
But if he insists on playing a penalty kick, it is perfectly reasonable.
"Arsenal showed a very strong attack at the beginning. Schalke 04 must remain focused and have the spirit of twelve points." The German commentator also began to worry about Schalke 04.
In the 7th minute, Podolski dribbled the ball from the wing, forcibly knocked away Uchida Atsushi and sent a cross, but Giroud, who had outflanked the goal, could not make it in time.
Podolski is obviously the kind of striker Uchida Atsushi doesn't want to defend the most. He is strong and fast, and he likes to be active on the side, which makes Uchida Atsushi uncomfortable.
In this game, Podolski seems to be in good condition and has a very strong offense.
As Arsenal took the initiative in the opening game, it was the 9th minute of the game that Schalke 04, who played at home, completed the first goal.
Fox made a pass from the left, Huntelaar headed back in the penalty area, and Lee Chenglong followed to finish the goal.
"On the weekend, Li only completed a hat-trick for joining Schalke 04, but today his condition seems to have declined. He still had some opportunities to hit the door just now~EbookFREE.me~ but he didn't make it at all. Any threat."
Schalke 04's first goal has just arrived, and then Arsenal's goal arrived.
In the 12th minute, Podolski made another pass, and Matip made a header to make a clearance, but it was pushed to Giroud's feet.
Giroud hopped the ball into the penalty area and kicked the goal. Héwedes desperately chased the ball with a shovel to block the ball, but the ball fell to Walcott's feet. He shot lightly and the ball passed Unnersch. Tal flew into the net.
"Waltek, very beautiful shot and scored, Arsenal took the lead away."
"They have Bruce Lee, and we have Theo Walcott."
The English commentator was excited and began to scream crazy.
"The goal was scored in just 12 minutes, and we still have plenty of time."
"We want revenge, just like we played Inter Milan, to complete our revenge away."
