Chapter 276 Offside
"This ball is offside..." Duan Xin let out a long sigh. "Lewandowski should have been offside when he headed the ball!"
The TV broadcast also immediately gave a slow-motion replay. It can be clearly seen from the camera that when Toni Kroos kicked the football, most of Lewandowski's body was stretched out. This is indeed It's undoubtedly offside!
"It's really offside..." Marcel Leif also said. "Although it was only half a body, it was still offside!"
The commentators and TV viewers can clearly see what happened just now through the slow-motion replay of the TV broadcast. It is indeed offside.
But the players on the field did not have such conditions, so the Bayern Munich players who were celebrating the goal just now were surprised to find that the goal was offside. Their surprise turned into anger. They divided into two groups and surrounded them all the way. He asked the referee Zweil and asked the linesman who raised the flag along the way.
It makes sense for the Bayern Munich players to do this. In such an important game, they were one goal behind Dortmund. After finally equalizing the score, it was counted as an offside kick and the goal was invalid, which meant that they were back to before liberation.
Bayern Munich's minimum requirement for this game is a draw. As long as they can draw with Dortmund, they can continue to maintain their two-point advantage over Dortmund. If they continue to win, they will naturally win the league championship until the end of the season. .
But now the tie has been stifled by the referee.
Of course they have to ask the referee for an explanation.
But the referee Zweil was unmoved. He even ran to the linesman and waved to signal the Bayern Munich players to leave the linesman. If anyone dared to threaten the linesman, the yellow card in his hand was not something he could do with. For decoration!
When the Bayern Munich players asked the referee for an explanation, Guardiola also seemed very angry. He found the fourth official and expressed his dissatisfaction to him.
He actually didn't know whether the ball was offside. Even if it is offside, he has to do this. Now is the time to look at the result rather than the process. If under his pressure, the referee changes the penalty and decides that the ball is valid, wouldn't Bayern Munich make a profit?
But such an idea is obviously not supported and understood by the referee.
He waved away the Bayern Munich players who besieged him and the linesman, and the fourth official warned Guardiola that if he kept nagging about this issue again, he would ask Guardiola to stand in the stands.
If we lose this game and the head coach is sent to the stands,
The loss would be too great.
Guardiola weighed it up and finally chose to shut up.
He turned around and walked back, shaking his head, very dissatisfied with the referee's decision.
But in fact, if he had seen the slow-motion replay of the ball after the game, he might not be so dissatisfied.
The ball was indeed offside, there's nothing to say about it.

"Bayern Munich's goal was invalid, and Dortmund escaped. Lewandowski was a little too anxious about this goal and started it early... The score is still 2:1 now. Dortmund leads Bayern Munich away from home. And it is left to Bayern Munich. There is not much time left. It is now the 79th minute of the game. The dispute just now wasted almost two minutes. Of course, these times should be counted into injury time... but Bayern Munich also It’s really time to hurry up!” Marcel Leif said.
Facing Bayern Munich's fierce attack, Dortmund has already made tactical adjustments. Today's Dortmund is playing a defensive counterattack and does not rush out to attack Bayern Munich.
But this time, Bayern Munich scored an offside goal and the ball was handed to Dortmund. Dortmund did not simply squander this opportunity and then returned to a state of shrinking defense.
Goalkeeper Weidenfeller took a free kick in the backcourt, but did not kick it to the frontcourt, and then resigned to fate. Instead, he chose to pass the football short to Hummels, and then Hummels passed the football forward, this method of advancing layer by layer.
The advantage of doing this is that you can control the football at your feet for a longer period of time, which can consume a little more time.
But it is not without risks. The risk is that the opponent may intercept the ball and directly counterattack, and at that time, Dortmund's defense may not have time to organize.
At this time, the ball control ability of the player holding the ball is tested.
Hummels passes the ball to Sven Bender.
Faced with Dortmund's strategy, Bayern Munich launched a pressing siege, desperately trying to cut off the football.
As soon as Sven Bender took the ball, the opponent's Thomas Muller rushed up.
Sven Bender just made an adjustment and lost the opportunity to pass the ball forward. He could only turn around to protect the football.
But under Thomas Muller's pressure, he didn't know how long he could protect the ball.
At this time, Zhou Yi retreated to the vicinity of Sven Bender and asked Sven Bender to pass the football to him.
Sven Bender immediately passed the football.
When Zhou Yi caught the ball, he also faced the problem of being surrounded. However, he did not stop the ball, but directly passed the football out to Royce who retreated to meet him.
Not only did Gotze, who came up to press him, miss, but he also took Gotze out of his original forehead position, creating a vacuum there.
After passing the ball, Zhou Yi ran forward, and Royce passed the football sideways.
Gotze pursued Zhou Yi closely.
When Zhou Yi got the ball for the second time, he came up from behind and wanted to steal the ball.
Zhou Yi made an emergency stop and pulled the football back. Gotze missed again, but he also returned to the front of Zhou Yi's offensive direction. In this way, Zhou Yi still had to face him if he wanted to attack.
"Getze was very tenacious in defending Zhou Yi! In this game, on the offensive end, Gotze's performance was impeccable. Now when he is defending, he is also working so hard. So far, Gotze is Bayern Munich's best performer Players!”
When Zhou Yi received the ball for the second time, he had already crossed the center line and entered Bayern Munich's half.
The defensive pressure Zhou Yi faces is also greater, not just Gotze.
After Gotze blocked his path, Toni Kroos also rushed up to steal the ball.
Zhou Yi seems to have no other option but to pass the football around again. And it can't be passed forward, it has to be passed back.
Zhou Yi indeed turned back and turned his back to Gotze and Toni Kroos.
Then he swung his foot, looking like he was trying to pass the football back.
But he didn't do that. He swiped his right foot past the football without kicking it. Then he swung it back and flicked the football behind him!
The football came out of the gap between Gotze and Toni Kroos.
Immediately afterwards, Zhou Yi quickly turned around and followed the football and got through between the two people!
"Zhou Yi! Beautiful turn!"
By the time the two people reacted, Zhou Yi had already broken out of their interception.
Gotze had the fastest reaction, and he immediately turned around and chased after him.
Seeing that Zhou Yi was about to drive straight in, Gotze grabbed his shoulders decisively and pushed Zhou Yi to the ground with force.
Zhou Yi, who fell to the ground, did not forget to hold the football on the ground in his arms.
The referee's whistle also sounded, but this was not a handball foul on Zhou Yi, but a foul on Gotze.
"Zhou Yi fell to the ground, Gotzela fouled!"
The referee Zweil ran over and not only called Gotze a foul, but also gave him a yellow card.
There were boos in the stands at the Allianz Arena. Since Lewandowski's goal was disallowed, Bayern Munich fans are very, very dissatisfied with the referee.
Now he dares to give Gotze a yellow card, which is an act that provokes the Bayern Munich fans to anger.
Amidst the deafening boos, Zhou Yi, who was knocked to the ground by Gotze, did not lie on the ground unable to get up, trying to delay a little more time. On the contrary, he rolled over and got up from the ground. Before he could fully get up, he pressed the football in his arms to the ground, and then kicked the football out without even looking at his surroundings!
Quick free kick!
The referee had just taken back the yellow card, and Gotze and Toni Kroos were still nagging and complaining around him.
When he saw Zweil suddenly turn around and throw them away, he ran forward!
He ran out with the football instead of blowing the whistle to blow the football back, which means that Dortmund's quick free kick was fine!
The boos in the stands got louder.
It’s just unclear whether the boos are blaming the referee for not stopping the game, booing Zhou Yi for being despicable, or reminding the Bayern Munich players to pay attention. Maybe it’s all three...
