Chapter 168
After defeating Werder Bremen in three goals, they also received unanimous praise from the media and fans. They cheered for the team's victory. In everyone's eyes, Schalke 04's road to defending the title this season is very solid, and the teams standing in front of them are also falling one after another.
In the 20th round, Schalke defeated Bochum 4-0 away, and once again presented an exquisite visual feast to the fans who supported them. Qin Tian only played 45 minutes in this game because he was a malicious foul by the opponent's midfielder Shinji Ono in stoppage time in the first half, and injured his calf. Although there was no big problem after being diagnosed by the team doctor, Sloane replaced him with Englar for protection.[]
After just 10 minutes of this round of game, Qin Tian received a long diagonal pass from Marin on the left, turned around and flashed the pull of Shinji Ono. A beautiful continuous bicycle shook Shinji Ono and dribbled the ball forward. Before the two central defenders closed the goal, the "Blade Storm" and the ball flew through the two players with a strong rotation, breaking through the dead corner above the goalkeeper Fernandez's fingers.
Qin Tian was also extremely happy after scoring the goal. He put his hand next to his ears and listened to the huge booing from all Bochum fans. To be honest, Qin Tian is a little fond of the feeling of scoring away goals now, which is also an alternative compliment.
Just before the Bochum players recovered from the conceding of the ball, Schalke 04's second strike came soon again. Boden intercepted the ball in the backcourt and launched a quick counterattack. He passed the ball to Rakitic near the center line. The Croatian stopped the ball with his chest and knocked the ball to Marin who was inserted on the left side. Marin passed the ball in half a high pass into the penalty area. Kuranyi headed the ball directly to Falfan on the side. The latter dexterously unloaded the ball and knocked the ball to the right. Ozil followed up on the right, shot a low shot, and the ball entered the net, 0:2.
Bochum fans who had originally expected their team to have a even-match battle with Schalke 04 suddenly fell silent. When did the gap between their team and Schalke 04 become so big? And the Schalke 04 fans, who were more than 1,000, were jumping and jumping in the stands, happily as if they were celebrating the festival.
In the last 10 minutes of the first half, Bochum made a sharp attack. Dabrovsky passed a very beautiful straight pass in the midfield. Aiber, who understood it, wiped it from behind Schalke's player and quickly cut in near the baseline. Suddenly, his right foot crossed the middle.
At the first point, Shestark's foot stretched out but couldn't reach the ball. Ono Shinji, at the far end, touched the ball with his foot, Rafinia, the defender beside him. The ball changed backward and drilled into the goal. Neuer made a world-class save and blocked the seemingly must-try ball with his feet.
Boden quickly drove the ball out of the dangerous area with a big foot. Rakitic outside the penalty area followed the ball and distributed it to Qin Tian on the side. Qin Tian immediately rushed forward with the ball, drifted past the tackles of three Bochum players, and continued to rush forward. He immediately attracted the attention of the remaining Bochum defensive players. At this time, Qin Tian passed the ball.
When Rakitic and Qin Tian started, Falfan and Kurani in front had quickly ran towards the hinterland of the opponent's penalty area. At this moment, Qin Tian's ball was passed, and Kurani took the ball with his back to the goal. Before the opponent's players could surround him, he knocked the ball back. Falfan understood the ball with his left foot and pulled the ball with his left foot. Goalkeeper Fernandez roared and rushed over. However, the Peruvian boy's recent condition was really good. After flexibly tweaking the ball with his left and right feet, he cleaned the goalkeeper, and what he wanted to do was very simple.
Empty door!
0:3, Schalke 04 expanded the lead to 3 goals. In this game, goalkeeper Fernandez, the busiest player in Bochum, could only take out the ball from the net with a painful expression.
When the commentator at Bochum's home court was wailing, Falfan was already hugging Kulanyi, Rakitic, Qin Tian and others, waving his arms towards the place where Schalke 04 fans gathered.
The fans were not stingy with their praise, especially Falfan's name resounded all over the slightly quiet Reville Electric Stadium.
In BJ's studio, Tao Wei and Duan Xuan were also teasing the performance of Bochum. "Poor Coach Kohler, he must have never thought that his team would be three goals behind before the first half."
"Schalke 04's performance is getting better. Maybe the most thing Bochum thinks about now is to end the game as soon as possible, I think." Duan Xuan watched this game very easily.
"Ah, is Qin Tian injured?" A disharmonious scene suddenly happened on the field.
During the injury stoppage time, everyone was waiting for the referee to blew the whistle to the end of the game. Bochum player Shinoji Ono passed the ball casually, and was cut off by Qin Tian. Seeing Qin Tian's riding away, Shinoji Ono's face turned red and white, and he hurriedly followed.
Before reaching the top of the penalty area, he passed the ball to Rakitic. Rakitic then passed the ball forward. Qin Tian successfully passed Fux. When he was about to raise his foot to shoot, a black foot stretched out from behind and wrapped it heavily around Qin Tian's ankle. With a scream, Qin Tian fell on the lawn and covered his ankle with both hands.
The players of both sides also quickly surrounded each other. Seeing that a conflict was about to happen, the referee quickly came to stop it, controlling the emotions of the players on both sides, and then checked Qin Tian's situation. Seeing that Qin Tian had eased, he was trying hard to stand up with the help of his teammates. After repeated confirmation, the referee did not recruit a team doctor to enter the field. Anyway, there was not much time left, so he immediately gave a yellow card to Shinji Ono.
Ozil stood in front of the free throw point. With the referee's whistle, Ozil swung his foot and shot. The ball drew a wonderful arc and rushed straight to the goal. This time, Fernandez was very focused and reached out to hold the ball out. After Schalke finished the free throw of this ball in 04, the first half of the game ended, and the score between the two sides was locked at 0:3.
Compared with the lead in the score, I believe that whether it is fans or the media, it is very concerned about Qin Tian's injury problem. After all, when we are heading into the player channel, we jumped back to the locker room with the help of our teammates. As for the victory of the game, no one thought that the Bochum could turn the defeat into victory in the second half.
After the rest of the midfield, the players of both sides returned to the court. What made Schalke fans worried was that Qin Tian was indeed replaced by Englar. Is it very serious? This is the doubt of everyone at the scene.
After the game started again, Schalke 04's offensive did not ease. It seems that Slonka also reminded his players not to be careless. The defense must continue to be done well, but the best defense is undoubtedly offense, which continues to suppress the opponent.
In the 55th minute of the game, Sloane replaced Kulanyi with Mene again. The main players must be allowed to rest in batches to avoid being injured again. After all, the next game is the Champions League match, and the opponent is an old woman in Serie A. This is not a small team like Bochum. The well-known Serie A team is not a difficult task.
Although Bochum's offense improved a bit when he saw two opponents being replaced, in the 67th minute, Schalke 04 once again expanded the score on the field. This time it was an attack on the right. Ozil passed the ball to the frontcourt, Mene stopped the ball in his chest, turned around and shot, and the ball bounced out. Before the Bochum players came forward to clear the ball, Falfan jumped over, headed the ball, and rubbed the ball in.
"The ball is in again. Falfan's condition is really great today. This should be his first hat-trick for Schalke 04 team, right?" Duan Xuan flipped through the information in his hand, "It's indeed the Peruvian's first hat-trick, congratulations!"
The Bochum team, who was behind 4 goals, completely lost its fighting spirit. The Bochum fans in the stands also booed a lot. Obviously, the team lost a lot in both fighting spirit and scenes.
In the 77th minute, Englar's powerful long shot in the middle gave Schalke 04's team a chance to get a corner kick.
Marin hung the ball directly into the penalty area in the corner flag area on the left. Falfan grabbed the ball and headed it directly to attack. Goalkeeper Fernandez bravely saved the ball. Martritz, who returned to defense, kicked the ball out with one kick. Rakitic, who was outside the penalty area, made a follow-up shot, and the ball flew over the crossbar and flew into the stands.
When Bochum fans left only one-quarter of their loyal fans across the court, the final score of the game was 0:4, Schalke 04 smiled and welcomed his next opponent with the three-pointer he had.
Regarding this game, Sloka was in the spring breeze at the post-match press conference. He also praised Falfan, who had completed a hat-trick in the game, saying that this was within his expectations, because the young man worked very hard in his usual training, and it was normal for such a result.
In addition, when talking about Qin Tian's issue, Slovakia also announced Qin Tian's injury to the media at the first time. Her ankle was a little swollen and her injury was not too serious. However, for the sake of future career, Slovakia decided not to start against Juventus at home, and it may even not appear. Although Juventus is not easy to deal with, Slovakia is confident that she will fight the opponent to the end.
After scoring this goal in this game, Qin Tian also rose to the second place in the scorer list with 15 goals, only 2 goals behind the first Wolfsburg player Grafitte. In the words of "Western" newspaper, Qin Tian's offensive performance this season undoubtedly made the forwards of other Bundesliga teams feel ashamed.
0:4 away game, which made Schalke 04 fans cheer, "Victory! We are constantly winning!"
