Before this game, there will be two rounds of league to play, namely, the away game against the youth team on March 20 and the away game against the Sion team on March 26. If nothing unexpected happens, this After two games, Gosho's league championship this season has been won.
On March 20, the Gosau team went to the capital Bern to challenge the youth team currently ranked fourth in the league. The youth team is still four points away from the third-ranked Zurich Grasswt, so their desire to win this game is very strong. You know, the fourth and third in the league means that there may be tens of millions of euros. The income gap of yuan.
However, the Gosau team also attaches great importance to this game, because after this game, they may win the league championship in advance, so Lin Fenglei sent all the main players. In addition, Sampedro and Lopez have returned from injury, so now the Gosho team's lineup is very complete, and the Gosho players are also on the court. Work very hard.
In the 18th minute of the game, Antunović passed the ball to Lima in the front court in the backcourt. After Lima shook a defender, he sent a wonderful straight plug. Codingho received the ball at the front of the penalty area. Because there were defenders in front of Codingho, Codingho was not greedy, but passed the ball horizontally. With Egman in a better position on the penalty area, Egman kept shooting angrily, and the ball quickly rushed into the lower left corner of the goal.
After losing the ball, the young team launched a crazy counterattack. They have to work hard for their Champions League seat in the Champions League, but now the defense of the Gosau team is counted in Europe. Most of the attacks of the young team have been resolved by the back line of the Goshao team. A few have formed shots and are also cut by the goalkeepers of the Gosau team. Karelli took the high and low gears, and all of them turned away.
In the 75th minute of the second half of the game, Gosho scored another goal. The young team attacked in a big way. Antunović successfully broke the ball in the backcourt and passed it to the front court. Egman withdrew and stopped the ball with his chest, and then turned around and swept the ball to the front.

Corner, 2-0, Kadingho's goal sealed the victory for Gosho.

Within just five minutes, the referee on duty, Cecini showed three yellow cards to the young team players. In the 82nd minute of the game, the young team's Chilean midfielder Brice Nuo was sent off because he got the second yellow card, and the movements of the young players were restrained.
In the end, Gosau defeated the young team 2-0 away and won an important victory, but their desire to win the championship ten rounds ahead of time did not come true, because Zurich beat Lucerne 1-0 at home and is still 30 points behind Gosau, successfully delaying Gosau's victory. A round. Of course, their current victory in the game is not only to delay the victory of the Gosho team. They are only one point ahead of the third grass-stakes before this game. They also hope to widen the point gap with the grass-stakes and stabilize their second place position. You should know that although the second and third in the league can participate in the Champions League. However, the second place can directly participate in the group stage, and the third place has to play in the qualification, which is a big difference.
The Zurich Grasswtraps, ranked third in the league, drew 1:1 with Neuchtel in this round, and the gap between them and Zurich widened to three points. However, due to the defeat at home, their points ahead of the young team increased by one point, which was also stable. The third place of yourself.
And St. Garren finally won a long-lost and important victory at home in this round. They beat Basel 1-0. With Arau's hard battle and still losing 1:2 to Sion at home, the point gap between them and Arau has widened to 5 points, which is a relatively safe gap. Of course, if you don't want to fall to the bottom and relegate directly, the St. garren team still has a lot to do.
On March 29, more than 5,000 Gosau fans poured into Sion's home court, which is rare in Gosau's away games. There are only about 2,000 Gosau fans who have been playing away with Gosau all year round, but this game against Sion is obviously not an ordinary game, because as long as Today, Gosau will not lose to Sion, and they will win the Swiss Super League this season nine rounds ahead of schedule.
This is an important game for Gosau, and for Sion, this game is also crucial, because they are now ranked seventh in the league, with 31 points with the sixth-ranked Basel team, but they are behind Basel because of the goal difference, and the top six in the Swiss Super League They will qualify for the European game next season, so they can't afford to lose every game now.
Although this game is an important game about whether Gosho can win the Swiss Super League title nine rounds in advance this season, Lin Fenglei still sent most of the substitutes in this game, because three days after this game is the first round of Gosho's home game against Zurich's Champions League quarterfinals. In Lin Fenglei's view, how many rounds of the league championship can be won in advance is not the most important thing. Laying the foundation for entering the top four of the Champions League at home is the top priority at present.
Of course, Sion sent all the main players. They fought very fiercely with Gosho at home. At one point, they even besieged Gosho's goal. Fortunately, Chekareli performed well, and Sion failed to score first.
In the 41st minute of the game, Gosho got an out-of-bounds ball on the left side of the front court. Chekaroni throws the ball out of bounds. After receiving the ball, Lopez passed the ball to Ivanovic, who came to catch it from the middle. After receiving the ball, Ivanovic made a slight adjustment, and then made a long shot near the corner of the penalty area. The ball was drawn. A wonderful arc quickly got into the upper right corner of the goal. Although Sion's goalkeeper Vairati tried his best to save, the ball still bypassed his fingertips and fell into the net.
Gosho's lead did not last long. Five minutes after the start of the second half, Mota, the Brazilian left winger of the Sion team, crossed the middle after breaking through the ball from the front court on the left side. Their Mexican striker Nava received the ball and made a horizontal dial. After shaking out of the shooting angle, he also made a long shot. Remembering the world wave, the ball quickly rushed into the upper right corner of the goal. No matter how good Chekareli is, he can do nothing about such a tricky shot.
After equalizing the score, the morale of the Sion team was greatly boosted. They launched a fierce attack on the goal of the Gosau team with the help of the home court. For a while, the defense line of the Gosau team was in danger. If it hadn't been for the excellent performance of Checarelli, the Sion team would have surpasseded the score.
After 80 minutes of the game, Sion's offensive was more urgent, and their formation became more and more forward, which made their backfield look empty.
In the 83rd minute, Gosho finally seized a counterattack opportunity and scored another goal to lock the victory. Silva cut the ball in the backcourt, and he uploaded it to Ivanovic. Ivanovic made a long pass to the front court for the first time. The ball crossed the whole line of the Sion team. Zhou Guodong inserted in the middle, successfully reversed offside and got a single shot. The defenders of the Sion team saw that the situation was not good and tried their best to catch up, but Zhou Guodong's speed and explosive power have reached Double 17. Can these defenders catch up with ordinary speed when he speeds up? After Zhou Guodong dribbled the ball into the penalty area, he easily pushed the ball into the far corner.
Zhou Guodong's goal cheered 5,000 Gosho fans at the scene, and all Gosho fans realized that Gosho's league championship was just around the corner.
In the last ten minutes, Sion launched a crazy counterattack, but the Gosho players, inspired by the league championship, rose together to withstand waves of Sion's offensive and held the 2:1 score to the end.
When the referee on duty of the game, La Perierre, blew two short and one long whistles representing the end of the game, 5,000 Gosho fans at the scene were boiling. They set off fireworks, waved various flags and souvenirs, and sang the song "We Are Champions" to celebrate the Gosho team's nine-round defense of the title in advance. A successful feat.
And Goshao, under the leadership of head coach Lin Fenglei, went around the field and expressed their gratitude to the fans who came with the team to support the team.
After returning to Gosau, the Gosau team did not hold any formal celebration ceremony to win the championship in advance. After all, the team's lead in the table is too big, and it is natural to win the championship. Lin Fenglei is now full of the top eight of the Champions League against Zurich. Therefore, as soon as he returns to the club, Goshao will vote. Entered the intense closed training.
Although Gosho has played against Zurich many times and has an absolute advantage in the record, Lin Fenglei still did not take it lightly. Sometimes, the most dangerous enemy is the enemy who knows you best, and in terms of familiarity with Gosho, it is impossible for any team in the whole Champions League to surpass Zurich. With Zurich's familiarity with Gosau, maybe they may offer some strange tricks to restrain Gosau.
Of course, Lin Fenglei will not be afraid of the opponent's strange moves. After all, the strength of the Gosho team is still far better than that of the Zurich team. Maybe their strange moves can cause temporary trouble, but if you want to defeat the Gosho team, you still need strength as a backing. Lin Fenglei only needs to be dignified and skillful. It's okay.
