"Dick's idea is very good, but can Dortmund withstand such pressure? They are actually very similar to Leverkusen last year. They both improved step by step in the Champions League. In the end, Leverkusen lacked
Experience comes at the last minute, what about Dortmund?"
"The only advantage Dortmund has is that they have an experienced head coach. Dick won the Double Champions League last year. He is fully prepared for such a situation. However, the head coach cannot replace the players. Dortmund's players do not have any
With such experience, can they really beat Cottbus at home? Even if Cottbus has been relegated early, they still have the fighting spirit to finish the last round. Have you forgotten the 99-00 season?
Unterhachen? They also defeated Leverkusen in the last round without any pursuit, allowing Bayern to win the championship that season..."
"Well, the media in Munich seem to be desperately trying to help Bayern build momentum... Bayern's luck was indeed very good three years ago, but don't forget that Unterhaching was a mid-table team at that time, and they were playing at home.
.What now? The last round is at our home court! Dortmund will not be afraid of any opponent at home. In the last round, we will definitely win, and the league championship this season will definitely belong to us!"
Dick was extremely high-profile in the interview. Now is not the time to save his character. The reason why the previous draw did not damage Dortmund's morale was because he had already told the players that our goal is four points.
A draw is enough in this game. As long as we defeat Cottbus at home, there will be no problems.
Now it's not about saying "Cottbus is a respectable opponent" or something like that. As long as you don't intentionally belittle your opponent to make him more motivated and cause too much trouble, then there is no problem.
During this week, everyone in Dortmund has been preparing intensively, not only for the final round of the league, but also for the Champions League final.
May 24th, with everyone's expectations, gradually arrived.
Because the final champion has not yet been decided, the Bundesliga committee prepared two Bundesliga championship silver plates. The original was sent to Westfalen and the replica was sent to the Schalke Arena - Bayern's last
The round is an away game against Schalke 04...
So in fact, Dortmund fans are not too worried about winning this championship. Although Schalke 04 is Dortmund's mortal enemy, they have no pursuit now. However, you must know that the difference between Schalke 04 and Bayern
There is also a big grudge between them - they almost won the championship two years ago, but Bayern overpowered them with a controversial indirect free kick in the penalty area in the stoppage time of the game, dashing Schalke's dream of winning the championship.
, now at home, even if the grievances between them and Dortmund are greater, they will not let Bayern off easily...
"Actually, the German Football Association does not need to prepare a replica. You have to know that it is still too late to send the original to a certain stadium after the game."
Some media are making fun of this, but this kind of ridicule still makes the atmosphere of the entire game very tense. The last round will decide whether the efforts throughout the season will pay off!
However, what is surprising is that in such an important game, Dick did not send out all his main players, but sent a combination of half of the main players and half of the substitutes...
Lehmann guarded the goal, Alves, Dede, Warnes and Metzelder formed the defense line, midfielder Demel, Klinger and Kyle formed the back three, Everton and Ricken advanced.
Caviarnagy serves as the lone striker.
The four main players of Okocha, Frings, Rosicky and Rivaldo were hidden in the ice. In such a must-win game - Dick's confidence seemed to be a little too much.
However, in the eyes of Dortmund fans, they feel that Dick is confident. In addition to winning the league championship, he will also strive to win the Champions League. It is precisely because of his absolute confidence that he will win the Champions League.
This game preserves the physical fitness of the four main players and allows them to prepare for the finals!
Dick has shown such confidence, so will there be any problems with winning this game?
There is nothing wrong with their thinking.
Twenty-five minutes after the opening, Dortmund, who had a huge advantage on the field, scored a goal. After receiving the ball, Ricken made a wonderful pass to Klinger who was advancing forward. The young German midfielder broke into the penalty area and calmly pushed the shot into the far corner.
Dortmund leads with a score of 1-0!
The players of Cottbus worked very hard to show their courage and fighting spirit in this game. However, as a small club, a newly promoted team and a team with basically no signings this summer, their strength is indeed not
It is not enough to gain a foothold in the Bundesliga. Now their points are more than ten points less than the relegation zone, which is obvious evidence. This gap in strength cannot be overcome by bravery and tenacity.
Dortmund then created many opportunities, but they were a bit unlucky. Cavinagy hit the goalpost twice alone, and Everton also hit the crossbar once. When they missed consecutive opportunities, Bayern fans seemed
I also saw the light...
However, before the end of the first half, Cavinaji finally seized his third good opportunity. He received a cross from Everton in front of the goal, and then immediately fell to the ground and tackled the shot, scoring his first goal of the season.
The seventeenth goal in the league, which allowed him to surpass the Brazilian striker Elton of Bremen who had scored 16 goals with him before, and became the third-ranked player in the Bundesliga scorer list - the top two players.
Erber and Bochum's Spanish striker Christiansen both scored 21 goals, and Cavinagi had little chance of catching up.
However, including the ten goals in the Champions League, he scored a total of 27 goals in the first season after joining Dortmund. This goal rate is already top-notch. For a 20-year-old
As a shooter, can you ask for more from him?
When they saw the two-goal lead, Dortmund fans knew that the championship was already theirs - and when the news reached the Schalke Arena, Bayern's players were obviously greatly affected.
, so much so that before the end of the first half, they were scored by Schalke 04’s Nigerian center Agali, and trailed Schalke 04 0-1 in the away game!
"Victory belongs to us! The championship belongs to us!"
Dortmund fans were shouting crazily throughout the halftime break, and at the beginning of the second half, Dick made two substitutions. First, the 17-year-old Polish right back Piszczek replaced Alves, and then he replaced Alves with the same 17-year-old Polish right back.
The 2016-year-old local forward Mario Gomez replaced Cavinaji - this substitution is obviously to prepare for next season...
In the 75th minute, Rost once regained a point for Cottbus in the game. However, before the atmosphere began to become tense, Klinger, who performed well in this game, once again made a beautiful pass.
After a through ball, Gomez received the ball in the penalty area and turned around decisively to shoot. The ball flew into the goal. Three to one, Dortmund completely established the victory!
"Seventeen-year-old Mario Gomez scored his first goal in a professional game! Beautiful goal! Dortmund now lead three to one, and they will also secure the Bundesliga title this season.
It's in hand! There are only ten minutes left before the end of the game. It will be difficult for Cottbus to equalize the score in the next time. On another court, Bayern is still trailing Schalke 0-1 away from home.
04, even if Dortmund loses this game, they are very likely to win the league championship!"
Amid the shouts of the commentator, Dick made the last substitution. This substitution seemed a bit strange. Weidenfeller replaced goalkeeper Lehmann. Lehmann raised his hands to the stands when he came off the field.
After greeting Weidenfeller, he hugged Weidenfeller before leaving the stage.
As time went by, the cheers of the Dortmund fans gradually quieted down. I don’t know who took the lead. They started counting down from the end of the game with five minutes left, and the uniform cheers filled the entire West End.
Terfalon Stadium, the entire stadium seemed to start to tremble...
The club's management were also in the stands, excitedly waiting for the end of the game. On the other court, Bayern was still trailing 0-1. They seemed to have accepted their fate and admitted the failure of this season.
With Dortmund distracted by the Champions League, they still failed to win the league title. This was indeed a very failed season for Bayern.
Finally, the last minute of stoppage time came. Dortmund's players controlled the ball back and forth on the court. The referee looked at his watch and then blew the whistle to end the game!
The 2002-2003 German Football League season has come to an end!
More than 68,000 Dortmund fans at the scene let out crazy cheers, and all Dortmund players rushed into the stadium and started cheering loudly. This was only the first time in their history that they had won two consecutive Bundesliga titles.
Just the second time!
From this point of view, Dortmund's history is also very poor - but in the entire Bundesliga, compared with Bayern, the honors of all teams are considered poor.
Dick waved his fists on the court. This season seemed to him to be very smooth. Although there were some setbacks, the Dortmund he temporarily formed performed very well, which gave Dick a great sense of accomplishment.
Dortmund's soldiers celebrated on the field, and Dortmund's staff quickly set up a podium in the stadium. After celebrating, under the leadership of Dick, Dortmund's players gathered in front of the German Football Association officials.
He received the silver plate representing the Bundesliga championship in his hands!
Different from other leagues, the Bundesliga championship does not have a trophy, but is replaced by a silver plate. Dick has seen it on TV many times before, but this is the first time he has touched it in person...
After the Dortmund players raised the silver plate one by one in celebration, the silver plate came to Dick. Dick carefully observed the texture on the silver plate, then stretched out his hands to grab both sides of the silver plate, and kissed it first.
After touching the silver plate, he used both hands to lift the championship silver plate high!
"Long live!"
All the Dortmund fans gave a huge cheer. They did not make any move to worship Dick. The Germans are not used to expressing their emotions in this way, but they cheered loudly and raised many flags.
Thumbs up to express your admiration for Dick!
At this moment, Dick's reputation can even surpass that of Hitzfeld, the best coach in Dortmund's history!
This championship is Dick's first championship in Germany.
