In the last nineteen rounds of the Portuguese Premier League in the 2010-2011 season, Porto, at the top of the rankings, led Benfica, who ranked second, by 11 points.
Although they have no way to lead Leverkusen, who is ranked second in the league, by 17 points like Dortmund, they have performed very well.
Like Dortmund, they have remained undefeated.
In terms of winning percentage, it is higher than Dortmund, they have seventeen wins and two draws.
This is the first time Klopp has led a team to play in the Europa League knockout stage, so he does not dare to slow down in the face of a powerful Porto, so he has a reservation to challenge Kaiserslautern's league away from home.
At the end of ninety minutes, Dortmund ushered in the second round of the season with two wins.
They drew 1: 1 away from Kaiserslautern, currently ranked 14th in the league.
As Dortmund draws away with Kaiserslautern on the road, more and more media have reprinted the "robbing the rich and helping the poor" about Dortmund!
The team started the first round of the UEFA Cup 1/16 final with two consecutive draws. Klopp was a little worried, because Porto's performance has been too good recently.
Streak + big win!
Look at Dortmund again?
Under the circumstances of the good situation, it was very unconvincing to achieve the second two-game tie of the season.
If all four games are won, Dortmund can lead the second place by more than 20 points from the start of the league to the twenty-two round.
What a pity! It's a pity!
If Dortmund can maintain a winning streak, they can set a new league point record in the same season when they created the league half-point record!
Bayern Munich once scored 79 points in two consecutive seasons in the 1971-1972 and 1972-1973 seasons. Dortmund this season scored an amazing 45 points in the half of the league, which means that as long as they keep a little in the second half The 2/3 performance of the first half of the season can surpass Bayern and set a record.
Not to mention that Dortmund scored the same 45 points in the second half of the season, or at least 35 points?
Of course, this does not mean that Dortmund cannot create league points in the remaining twelve rounds.
It's just that they have been beaten consecutively and they have less chance to create a league record.
At the end of the 22nd round, they scored 16 wins, 6 draws and 54 points.
It is now 25 points away from Bayern's seventy-nine points, and there are twelve rounds left in the league, which means that Dortmund will need to win nine of them to create a new league point record.
Nine out of twelve matches, that is, three out of four matches must be won.
This difficulty is a bit high.
Therefore, many media are feeling that if Dortmund did not rob the rich and help the poor this season, then they will be close to the league record created by Bayern in the 1970s.
What a pity……
It is not only a pity for Dortmund local media, the same is true for Chinese media.
Tang Zheng as the absolute core of Dortmund, Dortmund's excellent results are directly linked to him.
Everyone is Chinese, and I am very proud to speak out!
As time went by, everyone's attention began to shift, focusing on the first round of the Champions League 1/8 finals and the UEFA Cup 1/16 finals.
※※※
There are two matches on the first match day of the first round of the Champions League 1/8 finals, Valencia vs Schalke 04 and Arsenal vs Barcelona.
One of the most concerned is Arsenal vs. Barcelona. After ninety minutes of battle, Arsenal, who took the Emirates Stadium, beat Barcelona 2-1.
Perhaps the 1/8 finals of Valencia and Schalke 04 received less attention, and the game was more dull. The only thing that caused a sensation was that each side scored a goal and reached a draw.
On the second match day, there were only two contests. Roma lost 2: 3 at home to the Donetsk miners and Milan lost 0: 1 at home to Tottenham.
The first four rounds of the Champions League 1/8 finals will be held in the next week.
Immediately, the media focus shifted to the first round of the UEFA Cup 1/16 final contest.
In these sixteen games, there are two most noteworthy games.
They are Naples vs Villarreal and Porto vs Dortmund.
In the two focus battles, the 1/16 finals of Porto and Dortmund are the most eye-catching.
At present, Porto and Dortmund are the leaders in their respective leagues. Sao won no league championship this season, and both teams reached the semi-finals in their domestic cups.
In other words, the winner of this 1/16 final of the UEFA Cup will most likely chase the second-level Triple Crown ...
How did the media speculate that Tang Zheng didn't pay attention to this Europa League knockout, he followed the team's dedication to prepare for the upcoming long-term reunion with his friends.
Despite the Falcao factor, Tang Zheng's impression of Porto remained in the 2003-2004 season.
Under the leadership of Mourinho in that season, Porto won the league championship and the Champions League. Before a season, Porto coached by Mourinho won the league championship, the domestic cup championship and the UEFA Cup predecessor UEFA Cup championship That is the Triple Crown.
Eight years later, there is no way to participate in the Champions League of Porto, there is such an opportunity.
The coach currently coaching Porto is the Mourinho assistant Vilas Boas, who made Porto's three-time champion Albert in the 2002-2003 season!
However, Dortmund head coach Klopp is not small. He has eight years of coaching experience before coaching Dortmund, which is more coaching experience than Boas next to Mourinho.
Even in terms of instigating player sentiment, Klopp is better.
After many comparisons, it is difficult to decide the victory or defeat, it is natural to talk about the first guest and then the main player in the 1/16 final.
Of course, there are mixed pros and cons in a strict sense.
First come first, then the main meaning is that the team still has the last layer of insurance, which means that the first round loses away, and there is still a chance to complete the reversal after returning to home.
First of all, then you have to watch out for the team to lose the ball at an unreasonable time, and this worry will seriously affect the overall mentality of the home team in the first round.
So in general, there is still a certain advantage after the customer first.
The match day was on February 17th. The team of Dortmund arrived in Porto, northern Portugal, on the morning of the 16th.
The team first rested in the hotel, and then went to the Dragon Stadium to adapt to the venue in the afternoon.
During the team's adaptation to the field, head coach Klopp was interviewed by the media on the sidelines.
However, the media has only 15 minutes of interview time. Once more than 15 minutes, these media will be driven away from the stadium. The Dortmund team still has some tactical routines to practice.
Although it is very difficult to be absolutely confidential at home in Porto, their tactical routine has been formed, and now it is just re-drilling a few times. Besides, Dortmund ’s tactical play is known around the world, and there are few teams Beat Dortmund.
This ... is Klopp's confidence!
When Klopp was interviewed by the media, the players warmed up while looking curiously at the stadium they will play tomorrow night.
The Dragon Stadium, which can accommodate 50,948 people, is one of the best professional football stadiums in Portugal.
However, compared to Dortmund's home Westphalun, Dragon Stadium still has a certain gap.
So this season, Sven Bender, who was injured in the absence of Captain Kyle, became the main force and lamented: "How can the small stadium deserve to win? I think we must win."
"Don't underestimate the Portuguese Super League team, especially Porto, they should not be underestimated." Tang Zheng also came to the Dragon Stadium for the first time, but he was afraid of Falcao.
Many times, he can turn opportunities that are not opportunities into goals.
Only when he played with him did he know how powerful he was.
At eight o'clock that day, head coach Klopp organized the team to meet in the small living room on the second floor of the hotel.
While deepening the player's understanding of tactics, relax the mentality of young players.
In addition to Weidenfeller, Piscek and Barrios, Dortmund's other starting players are all 88 and 89 years old. Like Gotze, they are post-90s. The game experience is very lacking, especially in the knockout stage of the UEFA Cup.
Many people say that the Champions League and the UEFA Cup are different from the league, but the specifics are different. Only after participating in the game in person can you know ~ EbookFREE.me ~ This is why Klopp organized the players to meet the night before the game.
The starter eleven, the adaptation venue this afternoon has been determined, so the task of Klopp and the two assistants is to deepen the tactical impression of the main players, and at the same time instill the reserve players with the concept of preparing to play at any time.
Finally, Klopp talked about the players who need to focus on marking the Porto team.
The first concern is the two players with the most goals in Porto this season-Falcao and Hulk.
The two of them have scored 27 goals in the league so far, and the European Cup has scored eight goals in six games in the group stage, which is a stable scoring point for Porto.
Schmelzer, Humels, Subotic and Piscek were particularly serious in the back line.
The other three are Porto's three midfielders, Moutinho, Guarín and Fernando. The three of them have a clear division of labor and cooperate with each other. Falcao and Hulk can break out this season and have the ability to transport cannonballs in the middle and long lines Direct relationship.
In view of the away game, Klopp did not exclude the league's regular double-waist partner, he chose Sven Bender partner Tang Zheng, in order to limit Porto's attacking organization in the midfield and frontcourt.
With the addition of Gros Kreuz, Kuba and Goetze in the midfield, Klopp is confident enough to retreat at Dragon Stadium!
In the end, Klopp extended his right hand and glanced at all the players present, suddenly raising his voice: "Do you have confidence in the game tomorrow night?"
Klopp ’s routine Tang Zheng has long known that during Kyle ’s recovery from injury, he shouldered the heavy responsibility of revitalizing the team ’s atmosphere, so he put his hand on the back of Klopp ’s hand for the first time:
Be confident!
The other players have different styles, covering their teammates' hands respectively, and then tacitly said in unison: "Must win !!"
