Chapter 271 The Second Half Has Just Begun

The players from both sides stood firm on the court, but the game did not start immediately. The fourth official raised a substitution sign on the sidelines, signaling Dortmund's substitution.

No. 19 Grosskreutz is off, No. 26 Piszczek is on.

Guardiola glanced over at Dortmund.

Klopp made a substitution.

However, this is not beyond his expectation. He had already made corresponding preparations during the halftime break. This substitution adjustment will not affect his tactical arrangements.

However, the commentators gave a good talk about this substitution.

"Groskreutz is off the field. He has a yellow card. Klopp must have known that he would become Bayern Munich's main attack point in the second half. That yellow card was a big hidden danger, so he simply replaced him. …”

"Actually, even if Grosskreutz didn't have this yellow card, Klopp might have replaced him at halftime. After all, his performance in the first half was not very good. After the match with Gotze, Completely at a disadvantage in the dialogue. It became the biggest hole in Dortmund's defense in the first half. Such a performance will definitely lead to substitution..."

The television broadcast gave a close-up shot of Grosskreutz, who was already sitting on the bench.

The purpose of this shot is to show everyone the embarrassment of Grosskreutz, who was replaced at midfield, or to see if he was dissatisfied with being replaced early.

But the result was surprising. Grosskreutz was chatting with his teammates on the bench. Although he covered his mouth with his hands, you could tell at a glance that his mood was not very low. , even a little... elated?

This really surprised the audience, and the commentator was even more surprised. He didn’t even know how to explain this scene to the audience...

"Uh... Grosskreutz, who was substituted, seemed to be in a good mood. I don't know what he was talking to his teammates..."

In the end, that's all the commentator could say.

As for why I'm in a good mood, I don't know.

Grosskreutz is indeed in a good mood, and the reason is because of the scene that just happened in the tunnel.

He was excitedly telling his teammates about the conflict he had just had with Muller and Gotze in the tunnel.

certainly,

The point is not what he did, but what Zhou Yi said.

"...Zhou Yi is going to cast a spell! Just watch the second half with your eyes wide open! Zhou Yi is definitely going to cast a spell! I am very sure that Zhou Yi is irritated by them! I have never seen Zhou Yi speak in such a tone, although his face There was a smile on his face...but I think it was more like a threat to them! That guy Muller may not know yet that he has successfully angered the terrifying 'Wizard of the East'! Now Bayern Munich is going to be in trouble!"

Grosskreutz's tone was exaggerated, and the teammates listening to him had slightly disapproving expressions on their faces.

Zhou Yi's nickname is "Wizard", which does not mean that he can really cast spells... This is just a joke.

Substitute goalkeeper Langerak expressed a different view on this: "We all know that Zhou Yi can't really cast spells. It's just his nickname, Kevin..."

Grosskreutz snorted and disdained to argue with Langerak: "Facts speak louder than words. Don't believe it when the time comes!"

※※※

When the substitution prompt was made, Piszczek was already on the court, so there was no need for a substitution handover ceremony.

After the fourth official put down the sign, the referee blew the whistle to start the second half.

The second half started with Dortmund kicking off.

They took advantage of the kick-off opportunity and passed the football back and forth in the backcourt, while Bayern Munich pressed forward, intending to force the ball from Dortmund's feet and then directly counterattack.

At this time, Zhou Yi had been running in the backcourt while looking up to observe the situation. It happened that Yan Min passed the football horizontally to him in the middle from the wing. Zhou Yi did not stop the ball, but directly made a long pass and sent the football to the front of the right wing.

Aubameyang moved forward at high speed and received the ball from Zhou Yi.

"A long pass as precise as a long-range guided missile! Aubameyang received the ball from a position behind the Bayern Munich defense! This is Dortmund's counterattack opportunity!"

Duan Xin shouted excitedly.

Although Aubameyang received the ball from behind, Bayern Munich's defender did not give up. Alaba was not slow either and was chasing closely behind him. Aubameyang was unable to do anything because he still had to dribble the ball. Get rid of him.

Fortunately, Royce responded in the middle.

So he chose to pass the football horizontally.

Royce prepared to catch the ball at the penalty area line, but the football was shoveled and destroyed by Martinez who was returning to defense.

At the same time, the referee Zweil also blew the whistle. Judging from his gesture, Royce was judged to be offside...

TV replays told everyone that this penalty was questionable - when Aubameyang passed the ball, his body and football were ahead of Royce. He passed the football to Royce. In this case, Royce was not offside. Said.

However, although this penalty was controversial, it did not really make the players fight. After all, even if the referee did not call Royce offside, he did not get the ball...

The game continues.

Bayern Munich quickly took a free kick from the backcourt and attacked the frontcourt.

Then Lewandowski fired an angry shot from the edge of the penalty area. The football hit Hummels's leg and flew out of the baseline. Bayern Munich won a corner kick.

At this time, the second half had just started for a minute and a half.

Robben went to take the corner kick, and he chose to send the football directly to the back of the goal.

Here Papastathopoulos leaps high and pushes the football away with his head.

The football flew high out of the penalty area and flew about ten meters outside the penalty arc.

Ribery ran here, ready to take the second shot.

The football fell from the sky, and Ribery stretched out his right foot, preparing to stop the football.

Although the ball flew high and fell quickly, for a player of Ribery's level, stopping the ball should not be a problem...

As a result, when the football hit Ribery's foot, his foot did not have time to make a buffering action. The football fell down abruptly and then bounced out...

It fell three meters in front of him!

This just gave Yan Min, who rushed up with the football, an opportunity. He sped up and ran towards the football, intending to grab it.

Naturally, Ribery knew what he would do if he lost the ball here, so he hurriedly started, while leaning his whole body towards Yan Min.

Yan Min still stabbed the football first, but he was also knocked to the ground by Ribery.

Ribery, who knocked down Yan Min, didn't do well either. He lost his balance and fell to the ground.

But he was better than Yan Min. He could still struggle to get up, but Yan Min was pinned down by Ribery and couldn't move at all.

Ribery struggled to get up and regain control of the ball.

But Qiu Qiu had already been ambushed by Zhou Yi, who was ambushing the two of them.

This is really a mantis stalking the cicada, with the oriole behind...

By the time Ribery got up, Zhou Yi had already taken the football out almost ten meters away.

Ribery originally wanted to chase back directly, but he saw that the team's captain Lahm had leaned towards Zhou Yi, so he ran to the middle to fill Lahm's position.

Zhou Yi dribbled the ball straight towards Bayern Munich's frontcourt, and he passed the center line smoothly.

At this time, Ram also came closer.

Zhou Yi did not intend to have physical contact with Ram, nor did he intend to pass Ram.

When fighting back, what matters is the word "quick". He absolutely couldn't slow down here, so he made an emergency stop and smashed the ball, dodged the rushing Ram, and immediately distributed the football diagonally to the right wing, where Aubameyang was advancing at high speed.

At the same time, after passing the ball, he continued to rush into the penalty area.

"Dortmund's counterattack!!" Marcel Leif exclaimed. "Bayern Munich's players are desperately trying to defend! Now in the frontcourt, it's Dortmund three against three!"

Aubameyang received a pass from Zhou Yi outside the penalty area. At the same time, Royce was also moving closer to Aubameyang. The two had to establish contact and cooperate.

So the other two Bayern Munich players also rushed in that direction.

Even Ram, who was shaken by Zhou Yi, turned around and rushed over there, completely unaware of Zhou Yi behind him.

After Aubameyang received the ball in the corner of the penalty area, as a forward, of course he had one and only one thought, and that was what!

Before the Bayern Munich players surrounded themselves, Aubameyang took the first shot!

However, his shot did not hit Neuer. The football was blocked by Rafinha with his foot, then bounced up and flew to the other side of the penalty area by accident.

Originally, players from both Dortmund and Bayern Munich were concentrated near Aubameyang. Who is there?

Zhou Yi intervened and told them the answer!

"It's Zhou Yi!"

"Zhou Yi's opportunity!"

Although the commentators are so good, if you look at the flight trajectory of the football and the route Zhou Yi inserted, you will find that the two do not overlap perfectly.

Zhou Yi rushed forward, but the football bounced and then flew into the space behind him.

If this continues, football and people will pass each other and fly in completely opposite directions.

At this time, Zhou Yi suddenly stopped while running, turned around, looked up at the football and jumped.

As he jumped up, he swung his right foot upward, just in time to kick the football that was about to fly past him!

It's just that Zhou Yi's kick didn't hit the football firmly, but rubbed past the middle and lower part of the football.

After the football was hit, it changed direction and flew towards the goal. It was not like a cannonball that went straight into the goal.

Instead, it drew a slightly weird arc and fell towards the back corner of the goal...

Neuer reflexively made a save when Aubameyang shot.

Of course, the football did not fly over in the end, but was blocked by Rafinha and flew to the other side.

So Neuer quickly got up from the ground and ran over, intending to block Zhou Yi's shot.

At this moment, Zhou Yi kicked the football back to where he was at the beginning.

Faced with such a shot, Neuer had no time to change direction and run back. He could only jump back on the spot, and at the same time stretched his arms as much as possible, trying to reach the football in the air, as if to increase the defensive range. , when he jumped backwards, he also turned around in the air, trying to use the power of turning to make himself jump higher.

He jumped really high, but he still didn't touch anything except air...

The football flew higher than his hand. Logically speaking, it is impossible for such a high ball to fly into the goal.

But after the football passed Neuer, it suddenly fell, not very fast, and wandered straight into the upper corner of the goal.

How about a weird arc?

Neuer turned his head in the air and watched the football scrape the lower edge of the crossbar and fly into the goal he was guarding... Then he lost his balance and hit the ground.
