Chapter 239: Qualifying life and death

　　, the Bundesliga after the national team match day, the 13th round of the Bundesliga, Schalke went to an away game to challenge Frankfurt.
　　 Frankfurt played very well as a newly promoted last season, but he declined in the second half of the season, and finally only qualified for the Europa League.
　　 Since the start of this season, their performance has been much worse than last season.
　　 In the Europa League, Frankfurt did a good job. There should be no problem in qualifying for the group, but in the Bundesliga, they are currently only ranked 15th, a relegation zone.
　　 However, Schalke 04 was affected by the national team game, and he played quite badly.
　　 In Frankfurt away, Schalke trailed 0:2 in the first half.
　　 After the adjustment of the intermission, Schalke began to exert his strength, and Lee Chenglong sent out two assists in succession, but due to the big hole dug in the first half, it was only a 3:3 draw with the opponent in the end.
　　 Schalke lost two points, and in other Bundesliga games this round, Leverkusen defeated the newly promoted Berlin Hertha 1-0 in the away game. There was also a German national derby, Dortmund played against Bayern Munich at home.
　　 In the early days when Guardiola took over the team, Bayern did have some pains, but now they are getting better.
　　 But the Hornets are suffering from constant injuries. At present, there are already injured Hummels, Subotic, Schmelzer, Gundogan and others in the team. It can be said that the entire defense line has been injured.
Under such circumstances, Dortmund lost 0:3 at home to Bayern and watched his rivals complete the league's five consecutive victories. At the same time, Gotze, the former darling of Wester, was the one who helped Bayern to stand up and break the deadlock. All these made the Hornet. The fans are quite uncomfortable.
　　 After this round of Bundesliga, there have been some changes in the Bundesliga standings.
　　 Bayern continued to occupy the top spot with 32 points, while Leverkusen climbed to second place with 31 points, Schalke ranked third with 30 points, and Dortmund continued to rank fourth with 26 points.
　　※※※
　　 After the Bundesliga, Schalke will then prepare for the UEFA Champions League midweek.
Vs. Naples at home, this can be regarded as a life and death battle for Schalke in the Champions League group stage this season. If it is not at home, Schalke will be very dangerous next, but if it is won at home, then Schalke will be able to Master your own initiative to qualify.
　　, the Spanish tactician Benitez brought his disciples to Gelsenkirchen.
　　 At 8:45 in the evening, this life-and-death battle about whether to qualify for the Champions League officially kicked off at the Proud to Schalke Stadium.
　　 Schalke put up a 442 formation,
　　 Goalkeeper: Navas;
　　 Defenders: Fox, Matip, Herveds, Uchida Atsushi;
　　 Midfielder: Kanter, Neustedt, Draxler, Gretzka;
　　 Forwards: Li Chenglong, Kevin Boateng.
　　 Naples is a 4231 formation,
　　 Goalkeeper: Reina;
　　 Defenders: Amelo, Fernandez, Albiol, Maggio;
　　 Midfielder: Behrami, Zemayli;
　　Avant-garde: Mertens, Pandev, Kalekhon;
　　 Forward: Higuain.
　　 This game is a must for Schalke to win, and it is also very important for Naples, because as long as they do not lose in the away game in Germany, they can qualify in advance.
　　 So at the start of the game, Schalke, who played at home, became the dominant offense, while Naples was mainly defensive.
　　 On the first offense in the opening game, Li Chenglong turned his shoulders to pass the opponent's Swiss midfielder Behrami into the penalty area, but the kicker was blocked by the opponent's Argentine defender Fernandez.
　　 Then Schalke's corner kick came out. Naples grabbed the first point and pushed the ball out of the penalty area. Kanter, who was lying on the periphery, tried a long shot, but the ball was high.
　　 In this way, Schalke dominates the offense, while Naples focuses on defensive counterattacks.
　　 In the 6th minute, Li Chenglong made a collision with Draxler in front of the penalty area, and then picked the ball to the penalty area. Unfortunately, Boateng failed to find a chance to complete the shot under the defense.
　　 In the 9th minute, Naples counterattacked, Mertens sent a cross from the side, but Higuain's shot failed to hit the goal and did not pose a threat.
　　 Due to the fierce attack of Schalke at home, Naples' midfield fight and defense are also very fierce. This is also the tradition of Master Bei, who likes to use high positions and pays attention to midfield defense.
　　 So in the 24th minute, Behrami knocked down Draxler when he tackled the ball. Although the Swiss made the tackle first, the action was relatively large and Draxler was injured.
　　 "Red card~~~Red card!!" Stevens roared from the sidelines, but in the end he had to accept a passive substitution, and the referee did not even give a yellow card.
　　 Stevens put Hungarian striker Adam Sauloy on the field, let him partner with Jackie Lee as a double forward, and then asked Kevin Boateng to return to midfield.
　　 "Draxler was injured and ended, which will cause Schalke's midfield creativity to decline. This is not good news." The commentator also talked about the accident on the court.
Since last season, Draxler has been Schalke’s main force, and because Schalke’s results are very good, as Jackie Lee said at the beginning, Draxler has a chance to compete for this year’s European Golden Boy. Award.
　　 Some time ago, the "Torino Sport" announced the three-person list of the 2013 Golden Boy Award, and Draxler was among them.
　　 Although most media think that Juventus’s Pogba is the biggest favorite of this year’s European Golden Boy Awards, it’s amazing to be selected in the top three.
　　 Draxler was injured and went off the field, which really weakened Schalke's offensive ability, and then Naples' defense became more comfortable.
　　 Soon the first half ended, the score was still 0:0, Schalke never found a chance to break the deadlock.
　　 This score is not very favorable for Schalke, but it is very favorable for Naples.
　　 "Strengthen the offense. We must strengthen the offense. If we can't win this game, we will really be eliminated."
　　 During the intermission, Stevens emphasized loudly.
　　 In the simultaneous match on the other side, Arsenal have led Marseille 1-0 at home.
　　 If Arsenal wins smoothly, but Schalke cannot successfully win Naples, then Schalke will really be out of the game early.
　　 At the beginning of the second half of the game, Naples was as steady as before. They only need to do what they did in the first half and keep the 0:0 score for another 45 minutes, and they will be able to qualify with Arsenal.
　　 The game time passed by one minute and one second, and Schalke attacked again and again.
　　 In the 50th minute, Fox made a pass from the left. Lee Chenglong completed a beautiful dive to the top after a midway run-up, but the ball was hit on the crossbar.
　　 In the 61st minute, Li Chenglong took the ball from the center to start a strong jump, passing the opponent three consecutively, but the final kick was still saved by the opponent goalkeeper Renner sideways to the bottom line.
　　 In this way, the game time is getting less and less, and Schalke's offense has become more and more desperate.
　　 In the 74th minute, Naples relied on a counterattack opportunity and Callejon broke into the small penalty area to complete a low shot.
　　 This time Navas reacted swiftly, stretched out his short leg and thrust the ball out of the baseline with his toes.
　　 In the 81st minute, Naples relied on a counterattack. Insigne, who came off the bench, took a long shot and the ball went straight to the upper left corner of the goal. Navas flew over to resolve the ball.
　　 "Schalke's reckless offense has left their defenses full of holes."
　　 "Navas can make that kind of magical save once or twice, but if he makes a few more times, it will be difficult for him to keep the goal every time."
　　 But before the commentator's voice, there was a change in the field.
　　 In the 87th minute, Schalke once again pressed the attack.
　　 Li Chenglong scored the ball after breaking through Zemayli in the middle and divided it to the right. Gretzka on the right immediately returned the ball with a standard kick wall.
The cooperation was completed, but Naples was well prepared. Li Chenglong had just stepped into the penalty area, and Spanish defender Albiol had already come to intercept ~EbookFREE.me~ Li Chenglong stepped forward to catch the ball, but Albiol It was already here, so Li Chenglong took the opportunity to pull the ball and turned around, and came a Marseille roundabout, barely avoiding the opponent's pressing.
　　 There were people everywhere in the penalty area. Lee Chenglong, who turned around, didn't have time to look up at the goal at all.
　　 The ball flew over the face of the Argentine defender Hernandez who had rushed over and flew directly to the upper left corner of the goal.
　　 Reina just saw this shot, and when he was about to save, the ball had already flown into the net.
　　 "Goooooooooooal~~~~~~~" The commentator hissed.
　　 "Bruce Lee~~~~Beautiful goal~~~~Very beautiful!!!"
　　 "Super Bruce, it's him again!! When Schalke was the most dangerous, he stood up again and scored a crucial goal with his personal ability."
　　 "This goal saved Schalke and also Super Bruce!!"
After 　　 scored, Li Chenglong rushed to the sidelines and opened his arms to welcome the cheers of the fans.
　　 At this time, the Schalke fans in the stands had stood up, and the audience shouted in unison.
　　 "KingBrugBruce!!!"
　　 "KingBrugBruce!!!"
　　 Soon, the entire Schalke team rushed over and shouted and cheered excitedly on the sidelines.
