Fick's fierce tackle caused a conflict on the field.
The Bremen players rushed forward and argued with the referee, believing that this foul was definitely a red card. However, Silva, Sauer and other Cottbus players also argued that this frontal tackle was very clean and definitely not a red card. foul.
In the end, the referee gave Bremen a set kick in front of the penalty area, but only warned Fick to be careful with his actions.
There were also complaints on the Bremen coaching bench, and the assistant coach pulled the fourth official to reason.
But Scharf's expression remained unchanged.
There is no point in arguing about the penalty that has been concluded. What he cares most about is the situation of the players.
After being examined by the Bremen team doctor, Diego got up from the ground. His ankle seemed to be in some pain, but it didn't seem to be a major problem.
It was a well-placed set piece and Diego was ready to take it.
In the Bremen team, Diego's set-piece skills are top-notch. In the past two seasons, he has helped the team win through set-pieces many times in the past two seasons.
There is no need to cover the player, he retreats slowly, runs quickly, and hits a very strong curve ball!
The ball went in...the ball hit the goal post!
There was nothing Hildebrand could do, but luck was on Cottbus's side.
Diego kicked the turf angrily. If it weren't for the slight pain in his ankle, the goal might have been scored.
The fans of the home team were frightened and escaped; the fans of the visiting team sighed and clapped their hands.
Sandel on the sidelines let out a sigh of relief: "We have escaped again, but we don't know how long our good luck can last..."
In the following time, according to Yunsheng's arrangement, Fick broke out of the penalty area from time to time to help Li Tie defend Diego. In the following period, Diego did have fewer opportunities.
The reason why Yun Sheng dared to make such an arrangement was because he knew very well that Bremen's striker strength was currently insufficient and his defenders did not have much defensive pressure.
This summer, Bremen's top scorer Miroslav Klose moved to Bayern, and they lost a powerful center. Although two forwards, Almeida and Mosquera, were introduced in the summer transfer window, they are still far behind Klose. Although Bremen is playing three forwards today, the threat of the three is Can't even keep up with Diego alone.
Now that Diego is silent, Cottbus' offense slowly picks up.
Compared with 22-year-old Diego, 20-year-old Yu Hai and 19-year-old Shaheen are younger. Due to Adriano's absence, the two were very active on the offensive end today. Cassano created many opportunities, and he also had several threatening attacks. If it weren't for the wonderful defense of players such as Bremen center back Per Mertesacker, they might have conceded the goal by now.
Cassano's shot slipped through the door for the second time, and Yun Sheng sighed.
Today's defensive luck is good, but the offensive luck is not so good.
Last night I drew another C-level [Defense Bonus] and used it directly in this game. Several defensive players performed well today, but the team lacked some scoring luck.
When the whistle sounded at the end of the first half, both teams still had nothing to achieve.
After the start of the second half, both sides tried their best to find scoring opportunities.
Cassano performed very hard, but compared with the previous games, the loopholes were obvious.
He is not a particularly strong forward. Whether he was at Bari or Roma, the reason why he achieved good results was because he had a strong center partner beside him, which helped him attract firepower and created space for him to display his small skills.
It was the same in Cottbus. Because of Adriano, he was able to do it more easily, but today it was a bit difficult to be alone in the front.
If Adriano had been on the court today, given the passing quality of Shaheen and Yu Hai, Cottbus would have scored long ago.
The same problem is also on Bremen's side. Although Diego is guarded by two people and it is difficult to have a chance to break through, his passing is still a great threat. If it weren't for the weak forward players, Bremen might have taken the lead long ago.
The two teams played brilliantly on the field and made many excellent passes, but they never scored.
In the 70th minute of the game, Bremen made substitution adjustments. Schaff made decisive substitutions and replaced them with two young forwards, Honte and Schindler, whose average age was only 20 years old.
Schaff's substitution intention is obvious, hoping that the team can score as soon as possible.
On the Cottbus side, Yunsheng seemed to be stretched thin. He could only replace Sauer and Waksmut, whose physical fitness had declined, and replaced them with Lyle Hill and Mitreski.
It is also a matchup substitution, but it is to stabilize the defense. Although the physical strength of Yu Hai, Cassano, Shao Jiayi and others has dropped a lot, the strength of the substitute players is indeed limited, and it is difficult to solve the problem even if they come on the field.
In the 81st minute of the game, Yunsheng replaced Cassano, whose physical fitness had declined seriously, and replaced Tretko.
After the 20-year-old Polish teenager came on the field, he got an excellent counterattack opportunity. However, when he took the final shot, he was touched by the toe of Bremen center defender Per Mertesacker. The ball slid out and Tretko A missed opportunity to be a hero.
In the 89th minute of the game, Diego suddenly made a cold arrow and shot from the instep near the left wing into the far corner. Hildebrand was positioned a bit forward. He quickly retreated and hit the ball before it hit the net. In an instant, the ball was left in front of the goal line.
Before Bremen center Rosenberg arrived, Fick took the first step and drove the ball back to the front court, resolving the danger in front of the goal.
The second half of the game was very intense with almost no breaks, so only one minute of injury time was given.
In the last minute, the two teams each had another chance, but both missed the goal.
Shao Jiayi suddenly moved forward and shot from the near corner but was saved.
Diego played a Marseille slalom in front of Lyle Hill, and shot a very stretched semi-volley long shot, which was slightly wide of the goal.
The whistle sounded at the end of the game, and this very exciting game ended with 0-0.
Both teams gave wonderful performances, and the fans of both teams in the stands unanimously applauded, not only for themselves, but also for their opponents.
Schroeder in the live broadcast room said with emotion: "Werder Bremen has the young Brazilian genius Diego and the German central defender Per Mertesacker; and Cottbus also has the young Adriano, Cassano, and... There are younger Yu Hai, Fick, and Tretko. In this season, not only these two teams, not even just the Bundesliga teams, many European teams have appeared many talented players. I dare to assert that, They talk about ushering in a new era!"
"The era of geniuses has come!"
