Schalke is full of momentum, but Athletic Bilbao is not a coward. The experience of being ahead and being tied inspired greater courage.
Uchida Atsushi and Fuchs were temporarily suppressed in their own half, but Matip rushed forward unwilling to be left alone.
The horse forward is the horse forward. He really ran like a wild horse on the grassland, carrying the ball all the way to the midfield. He didn't hesitate until he was blocked by Ituraspe and Iola with no way to go. Reluctantly passed the ball to Farfan.
Farfan was quite brave. He passed the ball to Raul in a simple transition and then passed two people to the ribs of the penalty area.
Yang Feng ran to the back of the goal and took away Harvey Martinez, which also created a gap for Farfan.
Farfan took a step inside and shot low without hesitation.
The football was fast and urgent, and the Miners fans on the sidelines were ready to jump to celebrate. Who knew that Irasos reacted quickly and almost saved the ball from the goal line.
Farfan kicked the turf in displeasure, but some fans clapped slightly to show their approval of the attack.
Su Dong said: "Farfan almost knocked on the door of Athletic Bilbao on his own, but unfortunately the final shot was a bit unlucky."
Yang Chen interfaced: "Everyone can pay attention to Yang Feng's performance. Before Farfan hit the goal, he helped Farfan open up the space by running without the ball. After Farfan shot, he immediately rushed up and made a supplementary shot at any time. He couldn't help but Not to mention, this kid is a good runner and has a strong shooting instinct.”
Schalke was about to take a corner kick, and Fuchs, who was about to serve, had just come from the backcourt. Su Dong simply started chatting, "As a person who has been here, a senior who has also achieved great success in the Bundesliga, if Yang Feng stands now In front of you, do you have any advice for him?"
Yang Chen said: "I think what he needs to do most is to protect his body. Stevens' rotation is right. I know some fans call Yang Feng Little Irving, but I hope that Yang Feng will not imitate Irving. Ferguson is I once said that Owen suffered so many injuries later on because he overtaxed his body at Liverpool when he was young..."
"Let me digress," Su Dong said, "If Yang Feng was in the national team during the 2002 World Cup, do you think we could qualify in the group?"
Yang Chen was stunned, and said with a wry smile: "There is no what if in the world. Instead of thinking about what if before, it is better to think about what to do in the future. I just said that the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. Our generation failed to do that. I hope their generation can do it... Ouch! Look at this ball!"
Fuchs's corner kick went straight to the back point. Yang Feng, who was in the front point, tried his best to take off but failed to touch the ball. Instead, Mattie Pu, who was lying in ambush behind, completed a header without even jumping.
There was no quality in this attack, it was just a bit insidious, deflected and hidden, but Irasos seemed to have cheated today, falling to the ground and fishing the ball out before it was about to fly into the goal.
Amorebieta made a big save, and Athletic Bilbao was out of danger.
Matip stood there blankly, doubting life.
Yang Feng couldn't help but joked: "Now you know it's not easy to be a forward, right?"
Matip glanced at Irassos, who was beating his chest excitedly, and said depressedly: "Is this guy on drugs? Can he save such a ball?"
"This is football," Yang Feng said, "I have encountered even more outrageous things."
"That's right," Matip nodded in agreement, "You are an expert in this area."
The label of being single-minded is deeply ingrained...
"That was before!" Yang Feng said, "Well, it happens occasionally now."
This time, Matip patted him on the shoulder and consoled him: "You are already running ahead of many people. Even Gerd Muller cannot guarantee that every shot will score."
Schalke gradually gained momentum and played more aggressively with the support of the fans.
In the 28th minute, Draxler faced Illaura from the left side of the penalty area and made a fake cross. Raul appeared at the front post and shot with his left foot. Unfortunately, he failed to get the right position and the ball passed through the goal.
In the 30th minute, Raul passed the ball over the top. Yang Feng countered offside and got a single shot, but was pulled hard from the side by Harvey Martinez.
Bilbao captain Illaura stepped forward and destroyed the attack with a sliding tackle, but the referee's whistle had already sounded along with it.
"Yang Feng won a perfectly positioned free kick for Schalke 04," Su Dong said, "but Schalke 04 seems to have no record of scoring a direct free kick this season."
"Both Farfan and Fuchs are good at taking set kicks, but their scoring rate is really not very high..."
Farfan probably also knew that his accuracy was not good, so he did not hit the goal directly, but sent a cross.
Papadopoulos jumped high near the penalty spot and headed the ball towards the goal, but the ball went too high.
Although Schalke failed to score again, Schalke was on the offensive in this period. From the fans outside the stadium to the players inside, they were full of confidence in scoring.
Five minutes later, Farfan made a comeback, opening a gap from the right and passing in from the bottom.
Yang Feng was trapped between two central defenders and failed to catch the ball. The football was kicked out of the penalty area and Athletic Bilbao began to counterattack.
The football was passed to the left. Ault cut inside and took the ball and passed it directly to Muniain at the front point. However, Atsuhito Uchida pushed the ball out of the baseline first.
Athletic Bilbao wins a left corner kick.
Stevens's eyelids were twitching. He always felt that something bad was going to happen. He quickly stood up from his seat and shouted for the midfielders to return to the penalty area.
This guy actually has the potential to be a great player. After the football was sent out, Llorente actually pushed the ball in under the double-teaming of Heger and Matip.
Athletic Bilbao is a typical Spanish team that plays mainly on the ground. The occasional high-altitude bombing is as happy as winning the lottery, but look at Llorente's height of nearly two meters, Hildebourne I didn't have the nerve to lose my temper with Hegel and Matip.
Sauer said with dissatisfaction: "Schalke 04's defense is just a show-off! The opponent scored two goals before the half was over. Can you imagine that this is a team that is currently ranked second in the Bundesliga? "
Su Dong also said: "Schalke 04's double midfielders did not play a role in midfield interception at all, and easily gave the opponent a corner kick... Can Yang Feng turn the tide this time?"
Yang Feng is not a god, of course... he can.
Schalke 04, who fell behind for the second time, played a little impatiently. When Farfan and Draxler got the ball, they just wanted to play one-stop. After getting the ball in the backcourt, they always wanted to take big shots. They wanted to skip everything. Steps directly into the goal.
Unexpectedly, there was a mistake. Before halftime, Fuchs' long pass from the backcourt actually hit Yang Feng's head.
The ball was passed too high, and Yang Feng had no space to stop the ball properly. He could only jump up high, with his back to Athletic Bilbao's goal, and barely push the ball toward the top of the arc in the penalty area.
It looked like he was helping Athletic Bilbao to save the siege, but seeing the figure that quickly reached the football, the Miners fans couldn't help but cheer.
Raul quickly reached the ball and volleyed the ball with his left foot, and the football flew into the upper right corner of the goal.
2 to 2.
"You assisted your teammate to score the equalizing goal in a key game and received 1 point. Current points: 17."
"...So should I hope that Athletic Bilbao will take the lead again?"
