It seemed to be to reassure Jens Keller, and soon the Ruhr News published a report by Matthias Dash on whether Zhou Yi could appear in the Ruhr derby.

"...We learned from the Dortmund club that it is still uncertain whether Zhou Yi can play in the Roulder derby. There are still controversies and differences within the club. Sports director Zorke hopes that Zhou Yi will play. He believes that even if Zhou Yi does nothing after playing, he just stands on the court, which is an encouragement and promotion to other Dortmund players. However, the people led by team doctor team leader Dr. Braun oppose this approach. They believe that if Zhou Yi's body does not reach 100% state, then don't let him play. Zhou Yi's injury cannot be made into a long-term injury. Just like Gundogan..."

"...Gundogan's injury has now made the latest progress, and he may need to rest for a longer time. His waist injury is more serious than expected, and it is very likely to develop into a long-term injury... Obviously, Dortmund's coaching staff and team doctor team do not want Zhou Yi to become like Gundogan..."

"So according to my speculation... Klopp is very likely not to let Zhou Yi take risks in the Ruld Derby. Even if Zhou Yi's body has completely recovered, he will not let Zhou Yi play in this game. The Ruld Derby has always been very fierce, and there are many physical confrontations. If Zhou Yi gets injured again in this game, for Dortmund, it will be more terrible than losing Ruld Derby..."

The analysis of this article is reasonable and convincing.

Moreover, Matthias Dais is a team reporter who specializes in the Ruhr News and is the editor-in-chief of Dortmund's page in Dortmund.

He maintains a good relationship with many people within the Dortmund club, and he often gets some internal news, especially when transferring. So his source is credible.

With this person's article endorsing, Keller believes that his judgment is correct, and Dortmund does not make it possible for Zhou Yi to take this risk. Compared with the victory or defeat of a Ruhr derby, the victory or defeat of a season is more important.

In order to ensure that Zhou Yi will not appear, Keller demonstrated his "confidence" in an interview with reporters later.

"I don't care whether Zhou Yi can play. Whether he appears or not, we are all ready and will use our way to deal with them!"

The reporter asked: "What method?"

Keller smiled: "This is a Ruldby!"

He didn't say it explicitly, but anyone who knows the "Rulderby" will understand what he is talking about.

Although Bayern Munich has always been a well-deserved overlord in the history of German football.

Although the contest between Bayern Munich and Dortmund is considered a German national derby.

However, in Germany, the hottest, most intense and most eye-catching derby battle has nothing to do with Bayern Munich, but the Ruhr derby between Dortmund and Schalke 04.

The popularity of the Ruhr derby is ranked among the top ten or even the top five in the world. It is not inferior to the "time-branded derby" of Glasgow, and the Argentine national derby of Boca Youth and River Plate...

After Matthias Das's article, people discovered another sign that Zhou Yi might not play in the Ruhr derby. Before the Ruhr derby, Dortmund and Schalke 04 players would shoot short videos before the derby to stir up the atmosphere. Although the derby is very serious for fans, it is also a good opportunity to make money for merchants.

Let the players of the two teams shoot short videos together to stir up the atmosphere, which is also a means of commercial marketing.

Sometimes, video short videos adopt a one-on-one approach, with one person on each side giving one person. Sometimes, many-to-many, with several people on each side giving one person on each side.

For example, this time, five players on both sides left the country.

But Zhou Yi is not among them.

Although this is not a very conclusive evidence, Zhou Yi's absence is confusing - does Zhou Yi's absence from the video shooting also mean that he will miss the game?

※※※

The day before the game, it was time for Dortmund to announce the 18-man roster.

Everyone was staring at it, wanting to see if Zhou Yi really didn't have the chance to miss the 143rd Ruhr Derby in history.

However, in the 18-man list released by Dortmund, Zhou Yi's reputation is on the list!

Chinese journalists were surprised after seeing Zhou Yi's name, and then became excited.

So does this mean that Zhou Yi can play in the game against Schalke 04!

Klopp did not say death in an interview with reporters: "We just put him on the roster, but it is still unclear whether he can play. It depends on the situation..."

In fact, at this time, there is no need to disguise it anymore. Before, it made Schalke 04 unprepared, even if it was successful. Now it is only one day before the game. Even if the picture is exhausted, Schalke 04 has no time to make adjustments after reacting.

But Klopp still said it ambiguously.

"Zhou Yi is on the list?!" Jens Keller looked at his assistant in surprise and nodded when he saw the other party.

"Damn!" Keller hurriedly snatched Dortmund's 18-man roster from him - Zhou Yi was indeed inside!

"Starting?" Keller asked again.

The assistant coach shook his head: "It hasn't been announced yet..."

Keller also realized that he was too anxious. How could Dortmund announce the starting list the day before the game? This is the Roulderby, and Dortmund will never easily disclose their intelligence!

Seeing that Keller was a little panicked, his assistant coach comforted him: "Just just enter the roster, you don't have to play. Klopp also said that whether Zhou Yi will play is not necessarily the case, it depends on the specific situation..."

"That is to say, he may not start, but if Dortmund encounters difficulties, Klopp may let him play?" Keller asked back.

The assistant coach nodded.

"Well...then it would be useless to let him go!"

At night, in the group of "Exclusion Lao Guo".

Yang Muge was surprised: "Zhou Yi, aren't you not going to show up?!"

Zhou Yi posted a look of spreading his hands: "When did I say I won't play anymore? I mean I don't know if I can play. Besides, it doesn't mean that I can play the game if I enter the roster?"

Yang Muge had nothing to say. Zhou Yi really never said that he would definitely not play in the game. It does not mean that he could play in the roster at the same time...

But now Yang Muge can't believe that Zhou Yi will not appear anymore - the big roster has been included, so how can he not appear? If he doesn't appear, what will he bring Schalke to do?

Although Zhou Yi may appear, which made Yang Muge worried about the team's performance, he still expressed his joy.

"No matter what, if you can enter the roster, it will definitely mean that your body has returned to the state where you can play, right, Zhou Yi?"

"Well, I've said it before, I think I've recovered almost."

"That's a good thing."

"Hey, Lao Yang, are you what your opponent should say?" Sun Pan, who was next to him, couldn't stand it anymore. "I'm worried about you. Zhou Yi has joined, can you still win?"

"You can't say that. If Zhou Yi is up or not, we all have to win. Could it be that I still feel sad about Zhou Yi's comeback?" Yang Muge said.

Looking at Yang Muge's words, Zhou Yi sighed: "Old Yang, you are such a good person..."

"Don't send me a good person card, Zhou Yi. I know you must be suggesting that we will lose, right?" Yang Muge replied.

Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment - his feelings were purely because he "deceived" Yang Muge, but Yang Muge still considered him, so he said that Yang Muge was really a good person. He really didn't think about it in the direction of "good person card"...

However, after Yang Muge said this, Zhou Yi thought about it carefully and felt that...

So he said in the group: "Old Yang, you are so dirty now. You misunderstand your friend so much. I feel very sad for you - where did that shy Yang Muge go?"

Guo Nu couldn't help but give out a vomiting expression, and He Ying typed a string of ellipsis.

Sun Pan: "Zhou Yi, do you have the nerve to say that Lao Yang? In terms of the heart, who can get dirty than you!"

However, Yang Muge's answer also made everyone in the group laugh.

"There is no way, Zhou Yi, I am the closest to you here. Although it is more than 20 kilometers apart, it is still polluted by you."

Now it's Zhouyi's turn to make the ellipsis...

"Ah hahaha! Beautiful job, Lao Yang!"

"That's right, those who are close to the ink are black! Zhou Yi, you are that ink!"

“233333333”

Everyone's happy laughter rang in the group.
