【Scene Analysis】
Dorte joined hands with Bayern as a representative of the Bundesliga to enter the Club World Cup with his 6th Champions League points from 2021 to 2024. This season, Dortmund first fell and then rose, and the team’s record was once far away from the UEFA Champions League qualifying zone. With Kovac taking office, the team’s record rebounded strongly, and finally completed a counterattack with the record of 4th in the Bundesliga and the top 8 in the Champions League. In this group, Dortmund is a strong contender for the top spot in the group. Unstable defense is the biggest hidden danger for the Hornets at present. Jule and Schlottbeck’s ability to play in a sustainable manner is not very sufficient, and Schlottbeck is even more likely to miss this Club World Cup. Dortmund is expected to sign Bellingham Jr. in the near future.
[Core Player]
As the core of Dortmund’s offensive, Gilasi became the team’s “efficiency machine” with 34 goals and 6 assists this season, with 13 goals and slashing in the Champions League, setting a record for the single-season Champions League goal in Dortmund’s history. Gilasi, who is 1.87 meters tall, has a particularly critical role as the “lift point in the penalty area”. While directly contributing to the goal, he can create opportunities for his teammates by constraining the opponent’s defense.
29-year-old Brandt has reached his peak in his career this season, contributing 6 goals and 15 assists in 45 games, ranking third in the Bundesliga assists list. His “pseudo-winter” role is the core hub of Dortmund’s offense. In addition, his set-piece ability is an important weapon for Dortmund to break intensive defense.
22-year-old wing star Adeyemi has completed his transformation this season. In Kovac’s tactical system, Adeyemi frequently uses his speed and technical advantages to tear up the opponent’s defense. This seasonAdeyemi scored 12 goals and contributed 7 assists, with an eye-catching performance. Another super star in the team, Gittens, is very likely to transfer and leave, but he is also expected to appear in the Club World Cup.
