Legend of Fengshen

Chapter 207 Age is not a problem
If Rakitic is the core of Schalke 04's midfield playmaker, then Zhang Yuan is the offensive core of the frontcourt. There are sparks between the two cores. Using pass control to help Schalke 04 control the situation on the field, Create a murderous intent in front of the door.

After seeing Ernst's goal, Buskens immediately signaled his players to keep the tempo down. The overall tempo of the Bundesliga is relatively fast, but now Schalke 04 is playing a different game of controlling the ball.

Cottbus had nothing to do about it. Shao Jia's performance in the frontcourt could not be said to be bad, but rather average.

The final score in the first half was 0:1. Buskens and Mulder were not satisfied with the result, but it was completely acceptable. Leading is a good thing!

What they expect most is that Schalke 04 can lead by two goals, then they will continue to make substitutions and adjustments in the second half, replacing several main players to rest.

Now there is only one goal advantage, they dare not make substitutions, the Champions League game is important, and so is the three-pointer with 45 minutes to go.

So after the start of the second half, Schalke 04 was still the same people, and Cottbus was still the same people.

Zhang Yuan made few breakthroughs in this game. This is his own idea. In the middle of the road, the defensive pressure he faces is much greater. He tries to reduce breakthroughs to avoid being fouled by the opponent. He is afraid of injury. It is a critical period for Schalke 04.

He needs to use his performance to help the team through the difficulties, and he needs to win the Golden Boy Award for his performance on the court to earn points.

Schalke 04 also maybe he stood up to help the team grab points in the league and the Champions League.

Few breakthroughs does not mean that he does not make breakthroughs, he will still make breakthroughs if there is a suitable opportunity.

In the 54th minute, Cottbus failed to attack in the frontcourt. Schalke 04 got a chance to counterattack. Rakitic made a long pass to Sanchez on the left. After receiving the ball, Sanchez ran all the way and formed a two-on-two with Zhang Yuan. He took a distance, facing Pavicevic he chose to play one with Zhang Yuan.

After the ball was received by Zhang Yuan, it was obvious that the ideas between the two were not unified, and Zhang Yuan chose to go it alone.

Cottbus defender Atan stepped forward to grab the ball, but Zhang Yuan staggered instead, but Zhang Yuan's sense of balance was really good.

He stumbled to his feet and ran a few steps forward while wading on the ball. He went to the meeting single-handedly.

There was no suspense in the result. Facing Tremel, Zhang Yuan easily pushed the ball into the far corner, helping Schalke 04 gain a two-goal lead.

Zhang Yuan scored a goal and went to celebrate under the stands of the Chinese fans. He blew a kiss to them, which drew screams from some female fans.

This is also Zhang Yuan's 8th goal in the league this season. He is second only to Hoffenheim's Ibisevic in the scorer list.

Ibisevic is the most blinding player since the start of the Bundesliga this season. He has scored 10 goals so far, averaging goals in every game, and his efficiency is terrifying.

Hoffenheim has always firmly occupied the top position because of his outstanding performance. Many people exclaimed that the Bundesliga is going to have a second Kaiserslautern miracle? !

Gaining a two-goal advantage, Buskens and Mulder finally started to stop. Before they could make substitutions and adjustments, something happened.

Engelal had a few disputes with the line referee on a sideline kick. It is reasonable to say that it is nothing, but the referee on duty sent Engelal off the field.

Englar's surprised expression really makes people want to laugh!

He loudly defended himself for not doing anything, "I didn't scold the referee, I didn't hit the referee, why did you give me a red card!"

The referee didn't give him an explanation, just wanted to blow him off.

This change made it necessary for Buskens to make a substitution. He had no choice but to use up one of the substitutions, and Pender replaced Ernst.

In the 65th minute, Zhang Yuan was replaced by Kuranyi, and in the 74th minute, Rakitic was replaced by Gross Muller.

"Shua Shua Shua" Buskens and Mulder used up three substitutions, while Cottbus only replaced Shao Jia with Jura in the 59th minute.

With Schalke 04 missing one player and being on the bench, Cottbus now has the advantage on the field and has more and more chances to shoot.

But they are unlucky today. Schalke 04 not only has an outstanding defender Digan, but also a brave goalkeeper Neuer.

Cottbus's high center forward was watched by Degan. So far, he has only got two pitiful shots, and all of these two shots were blocked by Degan.

Cottbus's shots were mainly concentrated on the periphery. Several attacking midfielders got a lot of shooting opportunities. One of Jura's long shots almost knocked through the gate of Schalke 04. Fortunately, goalkeeper Neuer reacted. Quick enough, soaring into the air, with a flick of the fingertips, the ball hits the crossbar instead of the net.

Prasznica changed players on the sidelines, but the final result let him down. Cottbus lost again at home, their fifth home defeat so far.

The players, not to mention recovering the defeat on the field, failed to score a goal at the end of the game, saving a little face.

After the game, Shao Jia found Zhang Yuan, and the two exchanged jerseys. At Shao Jia's suggestion, the two went under the stands of the Chinese fans to sign autographs for the fans.

The arrival of Shao Jia and Zhang Yuan was a surprise, no one expected these two players to be so sensible!
Some asked them to sign with posters they were holding up, and some asked them to sign after taking off their jerseys. Fortunately, it was already early winter, and everyone didn’t just wear a jersey to watch the game. The scene is really unimaginable, especially with female fans.

During the time of signing, everyone inevitably had to ask a lot of questions, such as asking about Zhang Yuan's celebrity girlfriends, some of them even joked with Zhang Yuan.

"Zhang Yuan, if you don't learn well at such a young age, you just talk about friends, won't your family scold you?"

"Come on, they scold me why I'm not married yet!" Zhang Yuan replied with a big laugh.

These fans became bolder, and a pretty girl actually said: "Zhang Yuan, look, we are both Chinese, what common language do you have with that foreigner! Why don't you just dump her and talk to me?" I'm a master's student at the Technical University of Munich!"

My God, I really can't tell that such a beautiful girl is actually a top student, Zhang Yuan gave a thumbs up in his heart.

Zhang Yuan signed the jersey, returned the jersey to the female fan and said with a smile: "Sister, how old are you?"

The female fan's forehead was immediately covered with black lines. As expected of a high-achieving student, she reacted very quickly and understood what Zhang Yuan meant.

But it doesn't matter, the female fan quickly tossed her hair and said, "Age is not a problem, haven't you heard of a female junior holding a gold brick?"

"The key is that I'm only 18 now!" Zhang Yuan said solemnly.

"The key is that I'm only 24 now!" the beauty fan continued, "Take a look and talk to me, you can just take two golden bricks home!"

Forget it, it's really not Zhang Yuan's strong point to talk to this educated person, it's right for entertainment, everyone is happy.

Anyway, the fans in the stands enjoyed watching, and Zhang Yuan, who is approachable and approachable, is more in line with the aesthetics of most Chinese people.

Zhang Yuan found that most of these fans were not local, but from some big cities and famous universities in Germany.

The gimmick of the Derby attracted them. The result of today’s game doesn’t matter, but the **** players didn’t play for a long time. Shao Jia played 59 minutes and Zhang Yuan only played 65 minutes. Everyone didn’t play much. Seeing two people on the field at the same time for a while still makes everyone worry about it.

"Zhang Yuan, why were you substituted so early?" A fan asked this question.

"Do you want to hear the truth or lies?" Zhang Yuan said with a smile.

"What is the truth? What is the lie?"

"False: This is the coach's tactical arrangement, I obey the coach's arrangement! Truth: The recent schedule is relatively intensive, I am not an iron man, and soon we will usher in the key battle of the Champions League and the match against Bayern Munich. The coach replaced me Just wish I could get some time off!"

"Haha, that's how it is! Don't all of you players say that lie?"

"Of course, that's a signature lie!"

Shao Jia was also amused by Zhang Yuan's words. Nine out of ten players would use this lie. Generally speaking, he was not satisfied with the arrangement of the head coach. Was he satisfied with Prashnika replacing him so early? ?
Not satisfied, but he had to say to the reporter that this is the coach's tactical arrangement, I obey the coach's arrangement, and there are very few players who openly talk to the coach.
