Vol 3 Chapter 258: Group 1

The success of Royce's transfer is a big event for Dortmund fans. It is also a big event in the Bundesliga winter break transfer news, but it is relatively common to put it on the entire European transfer market.
And the impact on Dortmund's team is basically minimal.
Only Groszloitz, who was a teammate in Red and White Allen and Royce, was very excited.
In addition to training, other people also have their own things and problems to solve.
Such as Kagawa Shinji.
He was a little annoyed during the winter break, because the renewal negotiations between him and the club were not going well.
The two sides have been unable to discuss the issue of annual salary.
How smooth is the negotiation going?
In January 2011, Dortmund Club planned to renew the contract with Kagawa Shinji.
As a result, a year has passed and the renewal of the contract has not been settled, showing how much the two sides have differences...
In addition, Lewandowski's contract renewal negotiations are also in progress.
Since Barrios' transfer left and Mark Wagner injured, Lewandowski has become Dortmund's only scorer on the front line that he can count on.
Of course, he did not disappoint the team. He started sixteen games in the first half of the season and scored ten goals, making him the team's top scorer.
After the importance was highlighted, Dortmund also started to renew his contract.
The renewal will greatly increase Lewandowski's salary.
But I don't know if this can satisfy the fiery state of Lewandowski...
As for Zhou Yi...
Both transfer and renewal have nothing to do with him, no matter what will happen this summer, but at least during the winter break, it is impossible for him to leave Dortmund. As for the contract, he has just renewed the contract with the club and his salary has risen to three million euros. It is impossible for the club to immediately start a new round of contract renewal negotiations with him, unless the club is really too rich to spend...
In addition to completing the normal training in the team's training, he continued to carry out his special physical training, strengthen physical fitness, further improve running ability and expand the scope of activities.
As a midfield organizer, it is not enough to see far and pass far, but also to run far. To be able to appear in any place on the court in a 90-minute game, this requires running undead Physical support.
Don’t look at Zhou Yi’s development from his debut to the present, it seems to be quite smooth-his vision is good, his short pass is accurate, and the long pass has improved significantly after so long hard training. His dribbling and breakthrough. It seems that the sea and the sky ahead, and let him fly and gallop, his future is limitless.
But in fact Zhou Yi has a sense of crisis in his heart.
Although he didn't hit any rookie wall, he seemed to have encountered a bottleneck.
This bottleneck is physical fitness, because Zhou Yi itself is not the kind of player who can't run, so his physical fitness is not too good. In the case of sufficient physical fitness, he can play well. However, as the game time retires, in the final stage of the game, the number of threats he sends will obviously decrease. He uses the pass to control the rhythm more often on the court than to attack.
In this case, if it is necessary to fight back at the last minute, Zhou Yi will be helpless.
Of course, this is not a big problem. After all, there are so many professional players, and not everyone can keep their physical condition energetic from the first minute of the game to the end. After all, such a person is a minority.
So if Zhou Yi is satisfied with the status quo, he can continue to be the core in Dortmund and a first-class player in the Bundesliga. Anyway, the mix is ​​not too bad, and it can continue to be a well-deserved core in the Chinese national team.
But Zhou Yi is an ambitious person, he will not be reconciled to maintain the current level.
In order to achieve a breakthrough, he must continue to improve himself.
Physical fitness is the foundation of modern football. Although Zhou Yi's physical fitness is much better than when he first debuted, he is still far away from the goal that Zhou Yi himself had in mind... At the same time, he can also rush from the backcourt to the frontcourt to participate in the offense, whether it is to send a fatal assist or to shoot a goal in person, there is no pressure.

After fifteen days of training in Mallorca and three warm-up matches, the Dortmund team returned to Germany to make the final preparations for the second half of the league.
In the eighteenth round of the league, the first teams to appear were Bayern Munich and Mönchengladbach. Bayern Munich challenged Mönchengladbach away.
As a result, Bayern Munich lost to Mönchengladbach 1:3 away!
In the winter break, Royce, who announced that he would transfer to Dortmund in the summer, opened the record for Mönchengladbach in the eleventh minute of the game.
In the seventy-first minute, he assisted teammate Hermann and scored the third goal of Monchengladbach.
Bayern Munich only scored a face-saving goal by "piggy" Schweinsteiger in the 76th minute.
Duan Xin, the commentator during the game, also ridiculed: "This must be Royce's nomination for the new club!"
The next day, Schalke 04 faced Stuttgart at home. Yang Muge, who was training with the team during the winter break, appeared in the fourth consecutive league starter and helped Schalke 04 beat Stuttgart at home 3-1.
One day later, Dortmund challenged Hamburg away.
Zhou Yi used two assists to help the team beat Hamburg 5-1 away.
Dortmund is now four points ahead of Bayern Munich in the standings.
In the nineteenth round of the league, Dortmund, Bayern Munich and Schalke 04, and Mönchengladbach all defeated their respective opponents.
The top four teams in the league all won, and the ranking remains unchanged.
Dortmund ranked first with 44 points, Bayern Munich ranked second with 40 points, and Schalke 04 also chased up with a wave of winning streak, with a total of 40 points, but ranked third with the disadvantage of a goal difference . And Mönchengladbach, where Royce is, can be said to be a dark horse this season. They ranked fourth with 39 points.
These four teams can be regarded as the first group, because they are close to each other's points, everyone has a chance to surpass their opponents.
The gap between the fifth place Werder Bremen and the top four is a bit bigger. Werder Bremen currently has 31 points, which is a full eight points away from Mönchengladbach.
But then, Schalke 04 will lose their main midfielder Yang Muge. Because Yang Muge is going to participate in the Olympic qualifiers, the Chinese Olympic team away to challenge the Qatar Olympic team.
Before, Yang Muge also participated in the Olympic qualifiers, but at that time Yang Muge was only a marginal player of the first team of Schalke 04. He was there and had no impact on the team. Stevens never felt that this was anything.
But things are different now.
Yang Muge is the main force in Schalke 04's midfield. Although watching the game, he will not feel how dazzling he is. Most of the time, he seems to be invisible. But Stevens knew very well that the existence of Yang Muge did improve the team's defense. This can be seen from the goals conceded by Schalke 04 in recent games.
In the first fifteen league games without Yang Muge, Schalke lost 20 goals, averaging 1.43 goals per game. In the five games played by Yang Muge, Schalke lost only four goals, averaging 0.8 points per game.
The numbers will not lie. Although Yang Muge is not a player who likes to follow the lens on the court, the improvement he brought to Schalke 04 is real.
※※※
After playing the game with Cologne, Yang Muge left Schalke 04 and flew to Qatar, where he will meet his teammates, and Sun Pan, He Ying and Guo Nu will also meet there with the big troops , Prepare for the group stage a few days later.
This game is very difficult for the Chinese Olympic team, because this is the home of others, everyone knows the advantages of West Asia at home.
In the end, the Olympic team scored a 2:2 draw with Qatar on the road.
In the match, the Qatar Olympic team advanced the ball and took the lead.
In the first half the Chinese team equalized by He Ying.
In the 75th minute, He Ying scored twice and took the lead for the Chinese Olympic team.
At that time, Chinese fans thought that this game could be won. Who knew that in the last 86th minute, the referee on duty gave Qatar a penalty!
At a critical moment, the home advantage is really in full swing~EbookFREE.me~Finally, Qatar relied on this penalty to tie the Chinese Olympic team at 2:2 at home.
Failure to win Qatar has caused many Chinese fans to sweat for the Olympic team.
But God is quite fair-the Chinese team suffered unfair treatment against Qatar. The luck was really bad. Good luck made up for them in the match between South Korea and Saudi Arabia.
The South Korean Olympic team was tied 1:1 by the Saudi Arabian Olympic team on the road!
Everyone is tied, and the two sides are still one point behind.
Next, as long as the Chinese team defeats the South Korean team at home, they can overtake them, become the first in the group, and control their destiny in their own hands.
This game will start on February 22.
Fortunately, the teams played by the four dragons did not participate in the Champions League, otherwise it would be hard to say if the club will let go of people...because that time is the second match day of the first round of the Champions League eighth final... …(To be continued.)
