Li Chenglong just shouted the slogan to compete for the European Golden Boot, but the team lost the battle immediately.
A week later, on August 17, in the second round of the Bundesliga, Schalke went to an away game to challenge Wolfsburg.
Wolfsburg originally had strong midfielders such as Perisic and Diego in the team. During the summer transfer, the Brazilian midfielder Gustavo was introduced from Bayern, which strengthened the hardness of the midfield and was considered an effective reinforcement. , The strength has increased.
But even so, Schalke is still the stronger party, but he has bad luck.
In the opening ten minutes, Draxler was injured in the confrontation with Gustavo. Stevens chose to replace Kevin Boateng to make him a guest midfielder.
Although Kevin Boateng was originally born as a center, he also has a beautiful violent long shot. In addition, he is a muscular stick. He can often return to the midfield to participate in the defense, so he can also play in the midfield. Playing midfielder is a versatile midfielder.
Even if someone was injured in the opening game, Lee Chenglong still sent a beautiful through pass in the 35th minute to help Huntelaar score and let Schalke take the lead in the first half.
But at the beginning of the second half, Huntelaar was also injured in a corner kick.
Stevens had to make another passive substitution, letting Hungarian striker Adam Sholai play.
Successive players were injured, and they were all key players, which caused Schalke's morale to suffer a lot.
Wolfsburg took advantage of this opportunity to score four goals without giving any chance at all.
Although Kanter found a chance to complete a long-range shot at the last moment of the game, it was difficult to change the situation.
In the end, Schalke lost to Wolfsburg 2:4 away and suffered the first defeat of the season.
The team's first defeat this season came quite early. Last season Schalke was unbeaten in all competitions for more than ten consecutive games.
In the other games of this round, Bayern beat Frankfurt 1-0 at home, Dortmund won the newly promoted Brunswick 2:1 at home, and Bayer Leverkusen also won Stuttgart 1-0 at home.
All three teams have completed two consecutive victories, only Schalke is temporarily left behind with one win and one loss.

Although I lost, the days have to go on.
On August 21, Li Chenglong drove to Leverkusen, a small city between Düsseldorf and Cologne, to visit his old teammates.
Although Leverkusen is only a small town in Germany, there is Bayer, the world-famous pharmaceutical giant, and the Leverkusen Football Club created by Bayer.
"Bruce, long time no see." Toby Harrison, the assistant in charge of picking up Jackie Lee, stepped forward and hugged him.
"Toby, how are you doing?"
"Thanks to you, that's not bad." Harrison said as he walked with Jackie Lee, "The more you play in Germany, the better. Even in Scotland, I can see news about you in the newspaper almost every day."
"Did you know that whenever you have an outstanding performance, those reporters will go to the club to find someone to interview some of your previous topics. I took the opportunity to make a lot of money for alcohol."
"And the guy Peter, he always said in front of reporters that you were completely cultivated by him, and now many Scottish media praised that he is your Bole."
Harrison kept talking, Peter naturally refers to the head coach of Dundee United, Peter Houston.
"Look, everyone, our super blues is back." When he came to the hotel, Harrison yelled, attracting everyone.
At this time, the Dundee United team was doing simple training in the hotel gym, and everyone put down their equipment and rushed over.
"Bruce, you seem to be stronger again."
"No, it should be more imposing."
"This is the momentum of the big stars, everyone should study hard."
Although the current Dundee United has undergone a metabolism and replaced many players, the core is still Vardy, and Robertson is also a key player in the team.
Everyone gagged about, and Peter Houston also came over and said: "Bruce, or I will find you a No. 7 jersey. You will start the game tonight, right?"
"Of course I have no problem, but you have to call Gelsenkirchen first and ask if they agree to rent me out for one night?"
"Haha..."
At 8:45 in the evening, in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League play-offs of this season, Dundee United's away game against Leverkusen started at the Bayer Arena.
When the live broadcast shots of Lee Chenglong appearing in the stadium, Leverkusen fans immediately responded with a huge boo.
Of course, they all know that Lee Chenglong is here to support his old club, which is their opponent in this game.
Moreover, Leverkusen and Schalke can also be regarded as having a competitive relationship.
In terms of personal feelings, Lee Chenglong certainly supports Dundee United.
However, from a rational point of view, Li Chenglong also knows that Dundee United may not be able to beat Leverkusen, and the strength gap is still quite large.
But at the end of the game, the score on the scoreboard was not bad.
Dundee United drew with Leverkusen 1:1 in an away game in Germany, did not lose, and scored an away goal.
Although this score is not enough to guarantee promotion, it is at least a small dominant score.

After returning from Leverkusen, Jackie Lee continued to prepare for the game.
At present, the team has injured Huntelaar and Draxler one after another. It is the time when Jackie Lee needs to stand up.
In fact, after returning to Gelsenkirchen to check ~EbookFREE.me~ Draxler’s injury is not serious and should not be absent for too long, but Huntelaar is not optimistic. Wait until the winter break to come back.
At this time, Schalke’s mortal enemy Dortmund had a news that they and their striker Lewandowski had completed a salary increase contract.
This had nothing to do with Schalke, but according to the media, Lewand’s salary increase contract was given in accordance with the standards of Jackie Lee in Schalke.
Lewandwan wants to move away from Dortmund, the news has long been there.
It is said that in the middle of last season, Lewand had only one and a half years left on his contract, so he reached an oral agreement with the Hornet management. At the end of the season, Dortmund will let Lewand go as long as there is a suitable offer.
But at the end of last season, Gotze was first dug by Bayern, and then Lewandre finished his fourth in the Champions League semi-final against Real Madrid.
This time Dortmund's management repented and was unwilling to let Lewan go.
So throughout the summer, the transfer news in the Ruhr area, in addition to whether Li Chenglong will be forcibly dubbed by the rich, is whether Lewand will leave Dortmund.
Now that Lewand and Dotra have been talking for more than two months, they have reached an agreement at the end of the transfer period. Lewand will continue to stay on the team and raise his salary, but will not renew.
Lewand’s salary increase has reached Lee Chenglong’s standard. This is considered to be the highest salary for the Bundesliga excluding Bayern players, and at the same time there is no contract renewal. In other words, Lewand will still leave for free after the end of the season, and where he wants to go. Where to go.
In any case, Dortmund retained Lewandish, which is considered as temporarily retaining his competitiveness.
If Goetze and Lewandre leave one after another, Dortmund should be less competitive this season and it is basically impossible to compete with Schalke.
