After finishing the German Super Cup, it is very close to the league. The Bundesliga this season was kicked off on August 5th. It can be said that it was quite early, because in the summer of 2012 there was the European Cup and the Olympic Games. The league will end earlier than usual, which requires them to start earlier.
Before the league on August 5, Dortmund had another German Cup to play on July 30.
After being unexpectedly eliminated in the German Cup last season by a Bundesliga team, this time Dortmund did not dare to underestimate the German Cup.
So in this game, Dortmund will not send a second team to participate.
It was the last official warm-up match before the start of the league.
Zhou Yi started the game again and was replaced by Kagawa Shinji who recovered from injury in the 67th minute. And Dortmund finally defeated Hinter Johnson with a score of 3:0. Breaking into the knockout round of the top 32 of the German Cup.
Their next game will be played on October 25th, against Dresden.
Dortmund was eliminated in the top 32 last season, and the German Cup played out after only two rounds.
This time, Dortmund should try to avoid this embarrassing situation.
※※※
In the new season, Zhou Yi was the first to make his debut in the Five Little Dragons, because the Bundesliga started the earliest.
On August 5, 2011, the opening season of the Bundesliga new season, Dortmund played against Hamburg.
Before the start of the season, the German media conducted a forward-looking analysis of each team.
The goal of the defending champion is very clear, of course, the defending success. But it is difficult to defend successfully.
For the eleven years of analyzing the Bundesliga in the 21st century, only Bayern Munich have successfully defended once. That was during the 2004-2005 and 2005-2006 seasons.
Subsequently, the Bundesliga championship is basically Bayern Munich to win a championship, and other teams to win a championship.
The 2000-2001 season was the Bayern Munich championship, followed by Dortmund won the championship. Bayern Munich regained the championship in 2002-2003. As a result, Werder Bremen defeated Bayern Munich in 2003-2004 and won the league championship under the leadership of Schaff.
The next two seasons are the era of Bayern Munich.
By the 2006-2007 season, Stuttgart won the championship. In the 2007-2008 season, Bayern Munich once again won the championship. But in the 2008-2009 season, the league champion was replaced by Wolfsburg of Magath. In the 2009-2010 season, after changing coaches, Bayern Munich, under Van Gaal, once again regained the league championship honors. By the 2010-2011 season, Dortmund was born again and took the league title.
So according to the previous rules, will this season's league champion belong to Bayern Munich again?
Why is the Bundesliga only Bayern Munich as the overlord? Because no matter who wins the championship, Bayern Munich can always grab it back, as if the league champion was originally from their home, it is just an accident to fall behind.
Moreover, it has always been easy to defend the country, but look at the previous teams, Werder Bremen, Stuttgart, Wolfsburg, including Dortmund, can win the league title, but next That season will not work.
To put it bluntly, such a performance is easy to make people think that they have a greater chance of winning, rather than relying on strength.
Moreover, the difference between the ordinary team and the giants seems to be that after the ordinary team has won a championship, it is satisfied, and then the team will fall apart. It’s time to go to the giants, the salary increase, but the desire for victory is not. So intense.
Bayern Munich can continue to maintain a sense of hunger for honor, which is very important.
So although Klopp shouted the slogan of the defending champion in an interview before the season, everyone will still doubt whether Dortmund has the ability to defend the title.
In addition to doubts about Dortmund's ability to defend the title, Dortmund also needs to deal with a problem, that is, before the league starts, there is a sudden rumor that Zhou Yi will leave Dortmund.
In fact, since the end of last season, Zhou Yi's name has been frequently mentioned in the transfer market.
The giants are chasing him.
Just like they chased Sha Xin.
But at the beginning, it was just catching the wind and catching the shadow, there is no definite news.
As the Bundesliga draws closer, these news become more and more true.
A while later said that Barcelona intends to introduce Zhou Yi as Harvey's successor, while Bayern Munich has targeted Zhou Yi, and later said that the Premier League's Manchester United appreciate Zhou Yi very much, and later said that Arsenal's Wenger praised Zhou Yi.
None of these news is in the traditional sense, but it seems that there are really such signs.
For example, Wenger did say in a recent interview that he praised Zhou Yi. He believes that Zhou Yi can perform like this when he is so young, which is really amazing. In the end, he can only use "natural talent". describe.
Ferguson also admitted to reporters that Manchester United is indeed observing Zhou Yi's performance.
There is also Zhou Yi who is in talks with Dortmund to renew the contract, but when the club has successively renewed the contract with Goetze, Gros Reutz and Mark Wagner, the news of the successful renewal of Zhou Yi and the club has not been able to pass.
These seem to be evidence of Zhou Yi's departure from Dortmund.
Because these rumors appeared too close to the game, Dortmund hadn't had time to dispel rumours, but at the pre-match press conference, Klopp answered everyone's questions.
"I haven’t heard Zhou Yi tell me that he is going to leave. If he wants to leave, he will definitely say to me. So if he didn’t say, it means he won’t leave. As Dortmund’s head coach, I must also I don't want Zhou Yi to leave. He is at the heart of Dortmund, and he won't go anywhere."
"So, has he resolved the contract renewal problem with the club?" a reporter asked.
"The renewal has been ongoing and we can reach an agreement soon. I believe there will be no problems," Klopp replied.
※※※
Although Zhou Yi hasn't had time to refute the rumors outside, he has already explained to his teammates that he will stay in Dortmund. He and the club's renewal negotiations are going smoothly, and it should not be long before they will sign.
As the core of the team, this is what he has to do, that is to face his teammates, frankly explain the situation, can not deceive them, otherwise he can not gain the trust of his teammates. When the people's hearts are gone, how can this team bring them? Can't bring it!
In addition, for Zhou Yi, in addition to using words to dispel rumors, he can also use actions.
Use action to tell everyone who is worried that he will leave Dortmund, he will not leave.
In the league opener against Hamburg, Zhou Yi entered the starting list. And in the first half assisted Mark Wagner scored the opening goal.
After the goal, Mark and other teammates embraced Zhou Yi.
On-site broadcaster Norbert Decor shouted: "Zhou Yi completed the assist! He once again demonstrated his ability to find free time! With such an outstanding performance, I think no one will be willing to let him leave!"
For the first time in the stands, after scoring a goal, it was not the name of the goalkeeper but the name of the assist.
"Zhou Yi! Zhou Yi!!"
They waved their arms in the stands and chanted Zhou Yi's name in unison. And Zhou Yi?
Accompanied by the teammates, they waved to the fans in the stands. The interaction was very good, and I couldn't see how it was going.

After Mark scored, Dortmund firmly controlled the situation on the court.
In this regard, Zhou Yi naturally made great contributions, and his performance was normal, as if he was not affected by the transfer rumors at all.
Under his guidance, Mark assisted Goetze to score a goal, allowing Dortmund to lead Hamburg by two goals in the first half.
From the scene, Dortmund firmly controlled the situation. Zhou Yi perfectly continued his state of last season, Mark's performance is also very good, in addition to the status of Goetze and others are also very good.
This team does not seem to have gone through a summer truce, no break-in, and the state will not be broken.
"This season Klopp has not recruited much, and now it seems wise. Because Dortmund's system has been perfected, there is no need to introduce a large number of players to increase the burden of team running. Their main core is Unchanged, the team can quickly integrate. This is one of the reasons why they can continue the state of last season, which is naturally conducive to their performance in the league..." Marcel Lef analyzed. "But there is also a question, is this set of lineups still a little weaker? You know, in the case of Dortmund in the double-line battle last season, because of player injuries and other reasons, the performance was unstable. This Both have something to do with their lack of reserve strength. If they do not bring in more outstanding players this season, what will they do when the Champions League reopens?"

After the start of the second half, Hamburg made a counterattack and scored a goal. They pulled the score to 1:2, only one goal behind.
Subsequent adjustments were made to Dortmund and Shinji Kagawa replaced Lewandowski.
When the Japanese came on stage, the West Stadium rang with huge cheers and applause. This is the first time Kagawa Shinji has appeared in the league after being injured.
Last season, his outstanding performance captured the hearts of many people. Dortmund fans love this small Japanese player.
After Kagawa Shinji played and the nearest Zhou Yi high-five, then ran to his place.
Five minutes after he played, Zhou Yi found him with an accurate long pass. After Kajikawa stopped the football, he directly rubbed at the far corner. The football bypassed the goalkeeper of Hamburg goalkeeper Drobny and flew. Enter the goal!
3:1!
Dortmund re-expanded the score lead to two goals!
"Kagawa Shinji! He locked the win for Dortmund!" Marcel Leff yelled ~EbookFREE.me~ just scored the goal just after playing, it was a perfect comeback! "
Kaori Kagawa clearly knew who he was grateful for for his perfect comeback. After scoring, he turned and ran back to the midfield, hugging Zhou Yi tightly.
After the comeback, goals can be scored in the first league game, which will greatly improve his confidence, so that he will go a lot better after the comeback. Goals are really important for players who have been injured and absent for half a season.
So Kagawa Shinji would like to thank Zhou Yi, without Zhou Yi's selfless help, he may have to walk a long way and go a long way on the way to regain his state and confidence.
With Zhou Yi, you get twice the result with half the effort.
Such a core, who wants him to go? (To be continued) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point, and your support is my biggest motivation. For mobile phone users, please read. )
