"Congratulations on scoring a goal and earning a point. Current points: 2"
Plzen Victory, which was trailing by two goals, no longer had any extravagant expectations for victory. In the last few minutes, whether they attacked for dignity or went on the defensive in order not to fall behind too far, they probably did not reach a consensus themselves. The whole team was in a mess.
Of course, Schalke 04 would not show mercy and attacked several times in succession. Unfortunately, they were unable to take advantage of the chaos and gain another victory. The score was finally fixed at 1-3.
At the end of the game, Schalke 04 relied on Yang Feng's one pass and two shots to reverse the league victory, return to Germany with the first round victory, and firmly hold the initiative to qualify for the Europa League at 1/16.
The Europa League was the previous UEFA Cup. It was officially renamed the UEFA Europa League in the 2009-2010 season. The first champion was Atletico Madrid, last year it was Porto, and this year is the third.
Schalke 04 won the UEFA Cup in 1997, which was their only honor in the European battlefield and the only championship trophy they could win.
It can be seen from the fact that they have been talking about it since they reached the semi-finals of the Champions League once. Although this team is known as the traditional power of the Bundesliga, its honor book is really pitiful. They have only won a few domestic cup championships. , the best result in the Bundesliga was only second place, so they are still very greedy for the Europa League.
The domestic league has basically been a two-man game between Bayern and Dortmund in the past two years, but now Schalke 04 is not far behind, and there is still a certain hope of winning the championship. Therefore, whether to fully attack the league or allocate part of the energy to the Europa League, the club The senior management was also in a dilemma. After much deliberation, they were still unwilling to give up this honor and decided to attack on two fronts.
Of course, the focus is still on the league. As for the Europa League, it’s up to X-factors like Yang Feng to go on a rampage and try their luck.
"X Factor" is what "Bild" calls him. He had three goals and two assists in the previous seventeen games, but in the last two games he has five goals and one assist. Yang Feng is indeed a bit of a genius.
He came on as a substitute and led three goals. It was still the same formula and the same taste, but it was different from last time. Last time it was a civil war in the Bundesliga, and Yang Feng's three goals only brought a draw. This time it was a draw. A player who went abroad to fight and win certainly deserves any praise.
Especially the Chinese media, now they can finally boldly brag.
Hao Junmin, who lives in Qingdao, was quickly approached by reporters and asked to talk about Yang Feng, who almost became his former teammate.
Although Hao Junmin had an average impression of Yang Feng, he naturally praised him crazily at this time, "I have said before that he is definitely not a creature in the pool. It is not surprising that he behaves like this... I think about how to describe it, um, no Yes, he is a natural forward. You have seen his movement, but you must not know that he was actually even better when he was in the youth team. His speed, movement, and shooting skills that have been criticized since then are simply for shooting. But... why did it break out? I guess it's because he has begun to adapt to the first team's game. It always needs a process, right... me? It's really a pity. We almost can play together, but there is still a chance... "
In Germany, in addition to "Bild", "Kicker" finally gave Yang Feng a perfect score this time.
"If he plays like this in every game, then Schalke 04 will be the most powerful contender for this year's league championship and Europa League championship!"
Stevens is in trouble with happiness.
It's luck to perform well in one game, but what if you perform amazingly in two games?
Apart from the two games, what about the same bad thing in training?
From opponents to teammates, from fans to coaches, a new judgment is needed on Yang Feng's strength. At least before, everyone's impression of him was just a point-grabbing center, but now when he is mentioned, more It is said that he is a speed forward, and the prefix is "full of potential"...
Naturally, the Korean media still said sourly that this was just luck, and thoughtfully helped Bilson Victory find out the reason why they did not win. The Japanese media were still worried about the "No. 1 in Asia", but finally admitted that Yang Feng was indeed Has the potential to become a top star.
Compared with the heated discussions in German and Asian media, the outside world pays much less attention to Yang Feng, because Schalke 04 and Plzeň’s victory itself are not hot topics. If it weren’t for Raul, many people would be too lazy to watch. Take a look at their news.
The biggest hot spots in this round of Europa League are Manchester City VS Porto and Manchester United VS Ajax.
Aguero, Balotelli, Yaya Toure, Rooney, etc., each of them attracts more attention than Yang Feng.
"European League - Barcelona made an own goal, Aguero scored, Manchester City reversed Porto 2-1", "Manchester City smashed Porto's 27-game unbeaten streak in 1 year!" "England applauds you tonight", "European League - Rooney assists Little Pea to score, Manchester United 2-0 Ajax away"...
These are the hot topics in this round of the Europa League.
Especially Balotelli, who returned from suspension, completed an offside hat-trick in the first 10 minutes of the game, and then completed an offside hat-trick before the first half was finished... It was both in line with the character and full of laughter. I can’t even think of hot searches.
Yang Feng also reads other people's news more than his own, but he pays more attention to Atletico Madrid's reports.
Although he didn't say it clearly, he could probably guess that Schalke 04 would still focus on the combination of Hunter Lauer + Raul in the following leagues, and he, who suddenly appeared, would most likely be the one to play. Mainly competing in the Europa League.
If he can keep going, it is a sure thing to meet the historical Europa League champion Atletico Madrid.
Atletico Madrid's opponent in this round is Lazio in Serie A. The German media is still very concerned about this game because Lazio has the pride of German football: Miroslav Klose.
"In the first half, Klose opened the scoring for Lazio, then Falcao assisted Adrian to equalize the score, and Mr. 40 Million received an assist from Diego to lead the lead.
In the second half, Adrian returned the favor and assisted Falcao to expand the score. Atletico Madrid finally reversed and defeated Lazio 3-1 in the away game. "
"A powerful enemy..."
Yang Feng just sighed secretly and received a call from Raoul.
He was not familiar with Raul and was an acquaintance.
Raul admires super stars like Draxler. Not only do the two have a close personal relationship, but the former Real Madrid captain also gave the rising star of German football a lot of career advice, so much so that many youth teams from the same background The players were very jealous of Draxler.
Yang Feng didn't expect that the superstar of the generation who was previously unavailable would take the initiative to contact him, and even invite himself to his home...
