This weekend Munich 1860 will go away to face Mainz 05. This game is somewhat difficult.
Mainz 05 is not weak.
Although Mainz 05's performance declined sharply in the second half of the season, their strength is still very strong. Especially now that Mainz 05 is trying to qualify for the Europa League next season, it cannot lose and must win.
At the end of 31 rounds of the Bundesliga, Mainz 05 currently has 15 wins, 4 draws, 12 losses and 49 points, ranking sixth in the Bundesliga. Although they are now 7 points behind Bayern Munich in fifth place, which seems to be a big gap, they still have a chance to overtake, after all, there are still three rounds of games left.
The more important thing is that if Munich 1860 wins the German Cup, then the German Cup quota will be postponed. It is impossible for them to have a chance to qualify for the Europa League now.
So, now they have to win now.
Facing such a team, Munich 1860 must be cautious.
Moreover, Tong Yi knows very well how powerful Tuchel is.
In the future, Tuchel will be the top and most famous head coach in world football, and he will win the Champions League in the future.
Moreover, Tuchel has now risen.
This season, Tuchel led Mainz 05 to a seven-game winning streak to start the season. Tong Yi still vaguely remembers how strong he was at that time. If Tong Yi's results weren't even more amazing this season, Tuchel would definitely be the most resounding young coach in German football today.
Tuchel is not easy to deal with.
At this time, Tuchel accepted an interview with media reporters. He said: "Actually, there is nothing to say. We will definitely go all out in this game. We have only one goal, to win. We The goal is to qualify for the Europa League."
At this point, there is no need to cover up.
Tong Yi nodded slightly, he naturally believed Tuchel's words.
This game is a tough battle for them.
Tong Yi also accepted interviews with reporters every day. He said: "Tuchel is a very capable head coach. Although he is a disciple of Mr. Rangnick, he still has some connections with us. He was very early I played for the Mainz 05 youth team. I was influenced by the tactics of my mentor Frank, and also influenced by my senior brother Klopp. To be honest, to some extent, our tactics are still somewhat similar. Yes. I know how good he is. Mainz 05 is not easy to deal with. In this game, we must go all out."
None of Tong Yi's polite words were lies, they were all true.
Including Mainz 05, it is very difficult to deal with this sentence.
At this time, Dortmund's head coach Klopp also accepted an interview with the media. He said: "Yes, David is right. Thomas is a very good head coach. Many of his tactical concepts I am very amazed and convinced by everything, and I believe he will be one of the best head coaches in the world in the future.”
It is true that Klopp admires Tuchel. It is said that when Klopp left Mainz 05, he recommended Tuchel to the club's senior management. Klopp and Tuchel have a very good relationship. It is very likely that Tuchel will help Klopp stop Munich 1860 in this game.
Klopp continued: "Thomas has performed very well this season and has shown very strong strength. I believe they can defeat Munich 1860 in this game. Of course, David is also very good, but I like Thomas better. Win, hahaha!”
This is Klopp's true words. He really hopes that Munich 1860 cannot win.
Hearing Klopp's words, Tong Yi smiled bitterly. It seemed that Klopp was also a little anxious.
There are only the last three rounds of the Bundesliga this season, and there is not much time left for Klopp and Dortmund.
Tong Yi said to the reporter: "We will definitely go all out in this game. We want to win."
Then, Tong Yi led the Munich 1860 players to Mainz.
On April 30, 2011, Munich 1860 faced Mainz 05 away from home.
In this game, Tong Yi sent out the entire main lineup, and his thoughts were focused on the league. Even though Munich 1860 will have a double match next week, and they have to deal with the second leg of the Europa League semi-final against Braga in the middle of the week, Tong Yi still sent out the entire main lineup without hesitation.
After all, the second round of the Europa League is almost garbage time, so you can put all your thoughts on the league.
However, in this game, the 1860 people in Munich were not in good condition.
As soon as the game started, Tong Yi felt it.
In the 19th minute of the first half, Mainz 05's young genius Schürrle advanced from the wing at high speed and then passed the ball. The thicker Holtby fell to the ground and tackled the ball, sending the football into Munich. 1860 goal.
One to zero, Mainz 05, playing at home, took the lead.
In the 39th minute of the first half, Munich 1860 midfielder Gilberto made a mistake and was intercepted by Ivan Schitz. Ivan Schitz sent a through ball. Forward Heller rushed in and shot low. very dangerous. In a dangerous situation, Ter Stegen stretched out his legs to block the football out of the penalty area, and Schürrle followed up and shot directly into the empty goal.
Two to zero, Mainz 05 leads by two goals.
Tong Yi shook his head slightly and immediately changed people.
He saw that the players of Munich 1860 were not in the right condition today, so he immediately made substitutions, hoping to change the situation. But the effect was not very impressive. Today, the players of Munich 1860 were not at all in shape.
When the game was about to end, Givanja Nize, who came on as a substitute in the defense, actually blocked the football directly into his own goal and scored an own goal.
Three to zero, Mainz 05 defeated Munich 1860 at home.
This result was unexpected by no one.
Munich 1860 actually stretched his hips at such a critical moment. This was simply a hellish mistake. This is very likely to cause Munich 1860 to lose the Bundesliga championship this season. How could Tong Yi make such a mistake at this time?
The German media reporters just can’t figure it out.
It seems that the players of Munich 1860 are still too young, and Tong Yi is too young and cannot handle the pressure at all.
It seems that they really thought highly of Tong Yi and Munich 1860 before.
This young team still has a long way to go.
Klopp was also shocked when he saw this result, it was amazing. Tuchel really defeated Tong Yi, and the score was such a big score. God really helped Dortmund.
At the same time, Dortmund seized the opportunity. They defeated Nuremberg 2-0 at home and got three points.
The 32 rounds of the Bundesliga have ended. Dortmund currently ranks first in the Bundesliga. They have surpassed Munich 1860. Their current record is 22 wins, 6 draws, 4 losses and 72 points. Munich 1860 currently has 23 wins, 3 draws, 6 losses and 72 points, but due to a low goal difference, it ranks second in the league.
The fans of Munich 1860 are very worried now. There are only the last two rounds of the Bundesliga left. In these two rounds, can Munich 1860 overtake Dortmund? It's hard!
However, Munich 1860 also has a chance.
After all, in the last round of the Bundesliga this season, Munich 1860 will face off against Dortmund. As long as they defeat Dortmund in this round, they will be able to win the Bundesliga championship.
Although reporters from the outside world are not optimistic about Munich 1860 every day, the fans of Munich 1860 are still very confident in their team. In particular, they have more confidence in Tong Yi. They firmly believe that Tong Yi can lead the team to create miracles.
After the game, Tong Yi said in an interview: "Yes, this game was indeed very bad for us. I didn't expect that our state would be so bad. It seems that there were still too many games. Yes, the battle line was too wide, so our players had some physical problems, so the state in this game was not very good, and we lost. In this game, we lost without complaint, the opponent's strength We are very strong, we are in a bad state, and it is reasonable to lose.”
Tong Yi didn't worry about gains and losses, and the result was still acceptable.
Tong Yi also said: "There are still two rounds of games, and we still have a chance to overtake Dortmund. And I also believe that we can succeed."
Then Tong Yi ignored the game. The past was in the past and they had to look forward.
And at this time, Tong Yi let the main players rest and did not lead these players to distant Portugal at all. The main players can't afford to work hard anymore and need to take a good rest.
Tong Yi led all substitute players to the away game, and even promoted several young players from the youth team to the first team and went to Portugal to participate in the second leg of the Europa League semi-finals.
Seeing this, both Paciencia and the Braga people thought that their opportunity had come.
The Braga people are ready for a big fight, and their fans are also coming to respond in kind. When we were in Munich, how the fans of Munich 1860 treated their players, they returned them intact to the players of Munich 1860, and even the process and props were the same.
Braga people are disgusted with Munich 1860.
In this game, the Braga people played very hard, went all out, and even performed beyond their normal capabilities. But they also failed to perform miracles. Although they defeated 1860 Munich 1-0 at home in this game, the total score was 1-5, trailing 1860 Munich by a large margin and they were eliminated.
Munich 1860 successfully reached the Europa League final.
Another semi-final also ended at the same time. Porto lost to Villarreal 2-3 in an away game. In the end, they defeated Villarreal with a total score of 7-4 and successfully qualified for the Europa League final.
Munich 1860's opponent in the Europa League final was Porto.
After the game, Tong Yi immediately left Portugal with the players and returned to Germany.
Tong Yi's attention is now on the league. They will face Cologne at their home court on the weekend. Cologne is not strong and Munich 1860 should be able to win easily.
However, Tong Yi was very cautious because Munich 1860 could not make any mistakes.
