While Boateng was shooting, Weidenfeller judged the right direction and rushed over, just in time to rattle the penalty kicked by Boateng!

The penalty kick he saved fell back into the penalty area. Boateng still wanted to make a comeback, but he was unable to touch the ball.

After the football landed, it bounced near the penalty spot.

At this time, the person rushing up was Yang Muge!

He stretched out his feet to kick the football!

If he gets kicked, he may get a chance to shoot in!

This time, Subotic didn't care about the possibility of a foul, so he fell to the ground and kicked out first, and finally ended the football before Yang Muge.

Only then did Dortmund completely escape...

Weidenfeller was very excited after saving the penalty kick. He raised his fists and demonstrated to celebrate.

Other Dortmund players also ran up and slapped Weidenfeller's shoulders and back excitedly.

Schalke 04 was extremely disappointed. He originally thought that he could equalize the score by getting a penalty kick. Unexpectedly, Boateng's shot was too out of standard...

Yang Muge's re-ejaculation was very agile, but unfortunately it was a little late...

This was a double blow to Schalke 04 - it might be fine if you didn't get this penalty, but you missed the penalty after getting the penalty, which was even bigger than the blow of one goal behind.

So much so that Schalke 04 was weak in the next corner kick, and was directly taken from the air by Weidenfeller.

Although the penalty kick has ended, the commentators are still talking about what happened just now.

"...It is said that Boateng and Weidenfeller are good friends in life. I wonder if this is why Weidenfeller is too familiar with Boateng, so he can guess the direction so accurately..."

"Boateng must have never imagined that he accidentally set a record - Schalke 04 never missed a penalty in the previous Ruhr derby, and he was the first in history!"

The TV broadcast also gave Weidenfeller and Boateng close-ups one after another.

Weidenfeller at the end of the close-up was naturally very excited and was able to save the penalty, which was a great stimulation to his condition.

Boateng seemed very depressed, and he was still shaking his head secretly.

Why did he play a penalty kick from the goalkeeper's favorite angle? Others can't understand it, and Boateng himself may not understand it...

Soon Boateng got another chance to redemption. He broke into the penalty area and shot, but the football went out. It can be seen that he was indeed affected by the penalty kick.

This is not a penalty kick in an ordinary game, it is a penalty kick in the Roulder derby. The gains and losses of any goal are all scrupulous.

The penalty kick also had a huge blow to Schalke 04's morale. Dortmund then took the initiative, and they frequently attacked Schalke 04's goal.

In the 32nd minute, Aubameyang received a pass from Zhou Yi on the wing and made a cross. Reus headered the ball in the penalty area by Hildebran.

One minute later, Dortmund made a comeback again. This time, Mark made a sudden cold arrow outside the penalty area and shot a long time. Hildebran failed to save the ball. The football flew out of the baseline against the outside of the left post, which shocked Schalke 04 fans in the stands in a cold sweat...

Dortmund hopes to take advantage of the opportunity when the opponent's morale declines during this period to lock in the victory.

However, even if Schalke 04 is depressed, it will not collapse. This is a Ruld Derby after all, and it is normal for any difficulties to encounter.

So Schalke 04 is now reclaiming its defense, hoping to withstand Dortmund's offensive before the end of the first half. This will provide conditions for adjustments during the halftime break.

Yang Muge performed very actively during this period, and he completed the tasks arranged by head coach Keller well.

He ran tirelessly in the middle and backcourt, appearing in every place where he was needed, performing sweeping and clearing operations.

His figure is not as burly as Neustt, but his flexibility and tenacity are far better than anyone else. Once he is entangled, he will be cut off by the player as long as he hesitates for a little bit of a shot.

Moreover, after breaking the ball, he was also very clear-headed and did not want to take the opportunity to show his footwork. He would quickly pass the football to his nearest teammates, let the football be out of the dangerous area and relieve the pressure on the defense line.

It is his defense that makes Dortmund not have many good opportunities to score goals when facing Schalke 04. The score has been stalemate at 0:1.

Duan Xin praised Yang Muge's performance: "Although it is not as popular as Zhou Yi, it makes sense that Yang Muge can firmly play in Schalke 04. Look at the interceptions he intercepted in the game, which are accurate and clean, and are very decisive and fast when robbing, and when defending closely, it is as difficult to get rid of like a candy..."

Marcel Leif also praised Yang Muge: "If it weren't for Yang Muge's outstanding performance, Schalke 04 might have conceded more than one goal. Yang Muge is not the kind of player that attracts attention in the team, but he is indispensable to Schalke 04..."

In the end, Schalke 04 withstood Dortmund's last fierce offensive.

This gave Keller comfort - if only one goal is lost, nothing is possible. And Zhou Yi should not be able to play the whole game, so there is not much time left for Zhou Yi and Dortmund. As long as you can get through, the victory will still belong to Schalke 04!

Looking at Klopp's expression, you will know that Keller guessed that he should be similar - although he was one goal ahead, Klopp's expression was not relaxed when he left the court. He lowered his head and hurriedly walked into the player's passage.

But Keller guessed wrongly again...

In Klopp's original vision, he hoped that Dortmund would lead in the first half. As for the lead several goals... If he could lead two goals, three goals would be perfect at the time, but Klopp was not stupid enough to think that the team could score as many goals in Schalke 04 in the half game under the current situation.

He believes that as long as he can lead, no matter how many balls he leads, it is fine, even if he only leads one ball.

As for Zhou Yi's problem, he did not plan to replace him during the halftime break. Although Dr. Braun said that Zhou Yi could not play the entire game, he would not play forty-five minutes, right?

When will he be replaced in the second half, and what will happen to Klopp see when it is going to happen.

If Dortmund scored another goal at the beginning of the second half and led by two goals, why can't Zhou Yi be replaced?

On the other hand, if Schalke scored a goal in the second half of 04 and equalized the score, the situation would be unfavorable to Dortmund, and Klopp would not have to replace Zhou Yi at this time...

※※※

During the break, Jens Keller praised the players' performance in the first half, especially Yang Muge, who praised Yang Muge's performance in the second half of the first half.

Then let Yang Muge continue to play like this in the second half.

It should be a very happy thing to be praised by the head coach.

But Yang Muge did not show any happy expression on his face. Of course, this can be seen as if he was not surprised by his honor or disgrace, or was worried about the team without considering personal honor.

But in fact, Yang Muge was just a little worried about Keller's arrangement.

He was asked to continue sweeping in the second half, so who would defend Zhou Yi? And Neusttet?

Yang Muge did not have any objection to Neusttet. They worked together for a year in the midfield last season, and they cooperated well and helped the team get the Champions League qualification. But the problem is that Neusttet has never defended Zhou Yi, and his characteristics are not suitable for guarding Zhou Yi. Doesn’t it mean that the goal conceding in the first half mean? When Zhou Yi turned around and changed direction, Neusttet’s reaction was more than half a beat slower!

Will the second half be arranged like this?

Yang Muge is worried about this.

Neustte can also do this work in sweeping, and it doesn’t have to be a must for himself. Although this work is also very important, Yang Muge believes that curbing Zhou Yi is more important.

He really wanted to put forward his ideas to the head coach, but he didn't dare. This kind of approach of questioning the head coach in person is really too difficult for Yang Muge. He is not the kind of person who likes to contradict authority in person.

So he didn't express his worries in the end.

He will do the task as long as the head coach arranges for him. But in terms of adapting to the situation, he is indeed inferior to Zhou Yi.

This may be the reason why Yang Muge is considered the weakest among the Five Little Dragons - in the eyes of many people, he is not as powerful as Guo Nu... After Guo Nu went to Inter Milan this season, he has firmly become the main player of the team.

On the other side, Klopp also praised the team's performance in the first half. Although he only led one goal, he did not show any dissatisfaction.

He asked the team to continue their first half style in the second half.

Of course, he also asked Zhou Yi about his physical condition.

"No problem, I can still play. I even think I can play the whole game!" Zhou Yi achieved confidence.

Klopp smiled: "I don't want this game to last 90 minutes before the winner will be decided!"

The other players were also amused by the conversation between the two. There was a burst of laughter in the locker room, and the atmosphere was very relaxed.
Chapter completed!
