The press conference after the game was naturally filled with feathers. Stevens' accusation was interpreted by the Dutch media as a sore loser. Yang Feng's fall to the ground in the penalty area was interpreted as a failed attempt to cheat, and another time was interpreted as malicious revenge.
As for Twente's penalty kick, they were too embarrassed to blindly say that it was indeed deserved, but just said that misjudgment is always inevitable...
Schalke 04's so-called complaints are destined to go to waste. The miners can only accept this fact in frustration, hoping to throw back this humiliation in the next round.
“The first leg of the Europa League’s 1/8 finals started on Thursday night, and both away Bundesliga teams failed to win.
Hannover 96 drew 2-2 with Belgian runner-up Standard Liege. Senegalese forward Mame Diouf scored the equalizer despite injury;
Schalke 04 lost 0-1 away to Eredivisie powerhouse Twente due to two controversial refereeing decisions. Chinese forward Yang Feng, who had scored in six consecutive games before, had 0 shots in this game and was given a yellow card for malicious retaliation... "
"Yang Feng is different from the Asian players we know. He doesn't seem to be a person who can endure grievances..."
Whether it is a team or a player, the ups and downs of winning and losing are the rules of football. Schalke 04 had five wins and one draw in the previous six games. Yang Feng even scored 11 goals in six games. He has only started to show success now. The situation is already rare. Except for some critical fans who are a little worried about the suspension of Yang Feng's consecutive goals, no one is too harsh.
As the games between Manchester United and Manchester City started, the topic surrounding this game was about to subside. Unexpectedly, a report by "Bild" made things stir again.
The fact that Yang Feng went to a bar with his teammates made the headlines on the second page, and there was also a picture of them walking out of the bar together.
"The reason for Yang's sluggish performance was found..."
"After the game on March 3, Yang and his teammates partied late into the night. No wonder the performance in this game was so bad."
"Alcohol is ruining Schalke's future!"
In fact, this matter has already been reported by tabloids, but everyone knows that it is Yang Feng’s birthday, and many players have the habit of having a drink after the game, so the fans just laughed it off, but now It's different when you lose.
Especially domestic fans, this is what they hate the most.
They can accept that players are in a downturn due to injuries or external force majeure, but they certainly cannot accept players' self-destruction. This kind of report hits their full stop with almost every punctuation mark.
"Damn it! It's over! Where did we get and it started to float?"
"Here comes another one. I thought he would be different."
"With Ronaldinho's disease, Ronaldinho's life is not possible."
"It is said that Ronaldinho thought highly of him too much, and he overwhelmed another Dongfang Zhuo to death."
"I just wanted to say it when I was playing cards yesterday. I don't want to get angry even if I get angry. It's a ghost if this kind of person can go far."
"It's just that his true nature has been exposed. I've said before that this kid can't become a weapon."
"It's easy to learn bad things but hard to learn well. There will be no good results if you get involved with alcohol. Yang Feng is considered useless."
"To tell you a joke, you really go to a bar to drink."
Struth immediately found Yang Feng, "Have you been photographed in any other way?"
"What else?" Yang Feng said, "I just drank a few drinks in there."
"Really just drinking?"
"certainly…"
Struth, who was still facing a formidable enemy, first breathed a sigh of relief, and then said with a strange expression: "Yang, you can't be... um..."
It was unbelievable to Struth that he was young, strong, handsome, successful in his career, and yet single. He might have some unspeakable physical problem or some special hobbies.
If it were him, he could hit ten in a night.
"no."
"Really not? Huh? You know what I'm going to say?"
"Nonsense, it's written all over your face."
"It really doesn't matter. I don't mean to discriminate, but this group is a minority after all. If you really mean it, you'd better tell me..."
"..." Yang Feng gave him a look to let him understand.
"As long as there is nothing else, it's not a big disturbance this time, but I still have to remind you that you must learn to exercise restraint."
"Don't worry, I don't like drinking...Who took this photo? Did you make me look so ugly?"
"It's not just about drinking, but also on the court. Your foul was a little bit uncool."
"So what you mean is that since I was tricked by him, I should just hide and beg him not to hurt me again?"
"You should answer him with a goal! That's the gentlemanly thing to do."
"Gentleman?" Yang Feng sneered, "Why do you play football if you want to be a gentleman?"
"Well, it seems I have to get to know you again. I remember you liked Kaka and thought you were going to be a player like him."
"You may have forgotten, I also like Ibrahimovic."
Struth shrugged, "ambivalent Chinese."
"It's not a contradiction." Of course Yang Feng couldn't talk to him about repaying kindness with kindness, and could only use an expression he could understand, "I am a good person, a good person in the true sense, but that doesn't mean I should be bullied."
Struth actually said a sentence in German: "I will not offend anyone unless they offend me; if someone offends me, I will pay back tenfold?"
"Oh?" Yang Feng immediately looked at him with admiration, "Where did you see it?"
"You are my most important customer. Of course I have to study your nation carefully... Well, I have to say, it fascinates me. Maybe I should go to China and take a closer look."
"Then you have to be prepared to become a big fat man," Yang Feng looked at him, "although you are already very fat now."
"..."
Seeing him like this, Struth felt relieved, and the media didn't dig out any harsh information anymore. Apart from the fact that a large number of domestic fans were still grieving and lamenting the demise of Chinese football, this matter soon spread to Germany. Let's just leave it alone. Unless Yang Feng really dies or starts frequenting entertainment venues, there will be no media insisting on this trivial matter.
After returning from the Europa League with a defeat, the players caused some negative news. Schalke 04 encountered some minor troubles, but it was not all bad news.
In the 25th round of the Bundesliga on March 10, the newly promoted Augsburg, whose performance improved significantly from the end of the first half, performed well again, drawing 0-0 at home with the leader Dortmund, giving their opponents 8 consecutive victories. The momentum came to an abrupt halt.
Dortmund has only one point, only three more than Schalke 04, which starts tomorrow. If Schalke 04 wins tomorrow, it will tie Dortmund, who has been at the top of the list for more than half a season, in points.
When Schalke 04 and Dortmund were not going well, Bayern Munich ushered in a big explosion and beat Hoffenheim 7:1 at home.
Gomez, who has been suspended for 3 rounds, scored a hat trick, surpassing Huntelaar again, and once again led the scorer list alone with 21 goals.
Bayern Munich's league points have also become 48 points, two points behind Schalke 04, who have one game less, and five points behind Dortmund, who is at the top of the list.
Monchengladbach continued the decline after Hermann's injury. They tied with lowly Freiburg 0-0 at home and lost three consecutive games. They have completely left the championship ranks.
Schalke 04's next game becomes even more important. If they win, they will catch up with Dortmund. If they lose, they will be bitten by Bayern Munich.
What excites the domestic and Korean media even more is that the opponent Schalke 04 ended up with was Hamburg.
There’s Son Heung-min there.
Yang Feng had just "taunted" each other, and now the two met on the same road again in a sluggish state...
