Chapter 321 Beaten Down

"Mark Wagner! A wonderful volley!! He scored his 21st league goal of the season! He once again set a new record for personal league goals in a single season! It also reopened Lewando's lead The gap between Lewandowski! Lewandowski just scored a penalty kick before... When they were in Dortmund, the two were both competitors and teammates, so they couldn't completely let go of the competition. And Ben This season, after Lewandowski went to Bayern Munich, everyone no longer had to worry about the relationship between teammates when competing with each other... This season, Lewandowski and Mark are full of firepower, especially Mark, He successfully used his goals to make Dortmund fans forget about Lewandowski..."

Marcel Leif gushed.

"If he can beat Lewandowski this season and become the top scorer in the Bundesliga, I think it will be of great significance to Mark himself... After all, if he was not injured, maybe there would be no Lewandowski. What happened to Lewandowski... When he returned from injury, he found that it was difficult for him to regain the main position from Lewandowski..."

Duan Xin once again aimed his praise at Zhou Yi: "...when Lewandowski was here, Lewandowski was the best scorer, but now that Lewandowski is gone, the best scorer is The shooter became Mark. Lewandowski became the top scorer with 26 goals last season. This season, his number of league goals has not reached 20. However, it was the previous highest score in a single season. Mark, who scored seventeen goals, scored twenty goals this time... What does this mean? As forwards, both of them need the support of their teammates. What is the difference between Bayern Munich's midfielder and Dortmund's home court? Of course, there is only one difference. ! With Zhou Yi, Lewandowski is the top scorer. Without Zhou Yi, Lewandowski cannot be the top scorer! So Zhou Yi is the key factor in determining who can be the top scorer!"

Zhouyi is of course the key factor in determining the best shooter.

Mark's goal was his 24th assist this season. He is the only player in the European League with 20 assists and the only player with 20 assists in two consecutive seasons.

After him, the player with the most assists is Real Madrid's Di Maria, who has fifteen assists so far this season.

There should be no doubt that Zhou Yi is the top midfield organizer in European football today.

And you must know that the Bundesliga's definition of "assist" is very strict.

According to FIFA, the definition of assists means: 1. Only the last player who passes the ball to the scorer is recorded as an assist; 2. Among the two players who made important contributions to the goal, only the last player will be recorded as an assist; 3. The shot that hits the goal frame and rebounds before being scored by a supplementary shot will be regarded as an assist; 4. The creator of a penalty kick or direct free kick will be recorded as an assist; 5. If a player dribbles the ball and breaks through someone to score, there is no assist; 6. If the player gets a pass from the opponent and scores, there is no assist.

In the official statistics of the Bundesliga, only the first and second items are recognized assists, and the rest are not counted as assists. In other words, Zhou Yi was tripped in the penalty area, causing the referee to give Dortmund a penalty kick. This penalty kick was eventually scored, but it was not counted as Zhou Yi's assist.

Therefore, under such strict standards, it is really terrifying that Zhou Yi can still produce 24 assists in a single season.

Such a player is not only the best in the Bundesliga, but also the most powerful midfielder in Europe.

In the past, people always paid more attention to those forward players who attacked the city. The emergence of Zhou Yi has changed this situation. Now everyone is discussing and paying more attention to assist players. Excellent organizers and assist players are the goals that any team dreams of.

Therefore, Bayern Munich also wanted to poach Zhou Yi at the risk of being appealed by Dortmund to FIFA.

They obviously understand Zhou Yi's importance to the team.

Although Bayern Munich has many midfield players, there is no such efficient assister as Zhou Yi.

In the Bundesliga assists list this season, Bayern Munich's top players are Franck Ribery and Thomas Muller, both of whom contributed ten assists, followed by Gotze, who contributed nine assists.

There are three Bayern Munich players among the top ten in assists, and there are only two players from Dortmund, but the number of assists is twenty-nine to thirty-seven. Twenty-nine is the number of assists from Bayern Munich, and thirty-seven. They belong to Dortmund, with Zhou Yi 24 times and Royce 13 times, ranking the top two, with a very obvious advantage.

The news of Dortmund's goal made the atmosphere in Bayern Munich's coaching bench and bench somewhat solemn, and the previous joyful atmosphere disappeared.

The TV broadcast also replayed the real-time standings - Dortmund once again surpassed Bayern Munich with a one-point advantage to become the league leader.

That was enough to frustrate Bayern Munich.

But it's not over yet.

Three minutes later, just three minutes after Dortmund scored, they scored again!

This time it was Zhou Yi again. He knocked the football behind him with his heel on the penalty area line. Royce followed up and shot!

The football drew a wonderful arc, bypassed Hertha Berlin's goalkeeper Kraft, and flew into the goal for the second time!

"2:0!! 2:0!! Dortmund leads Hertha Berlin by two goals! Reus expanded the team's lead!" Marcel Leif shouted excitedly. "They lead Hertha Berlin by two goals on the road, which means they are one step closer to winning four consecutive league titles!"

"Damn..." In the Bayern Munich coaching bench, someone lowered his head and cursed.

In the Dortmund coaching bench, it was a completely different scene - everyone jumped up, hugging and cheering.

"Twenty-fifth assist in the league! Zhou Yi is further setting his own record!" Duan Xin was also very happy for Zhou Yi.

After Dortmund led Hertha Berlin 2:0, the score did not change again until the end of the first half.

The first half of the game ended almost simultaneously for both sides.

Bayern Munich players don't have to ask anyone about the score between Dortmund and Hertha Berlin because they already know it. During the game, there were two loud boos at the Allianz Arena, the first of which came when they had just scored a goal and had just finished celebrating.

What that means, everyone knows, it means Dortmund scored.

Two such boos, so Dortmund scored two goals.

Except for the loud cheers when Bayern Munich scored, there were no other cheers that came to mind, which shows that Hertha Berlin did not score.

So the score in the first half should be 2:0, with Dortmund leading by two goals.

Entering the locker room, there were still people complaining angrily: "I knew the Berlin team was unreliable!"

But more people are silent.

Gotze leaned back in his seat, breathing heavily. He worked very hard in the first half and also contributed an assist.

But he can only decide whether his team wins or loses, but not Dortmund.

He left Dortmund and wanted to prove that he was no worse than Zhou Yi, but now he is being pushed further and further away by Zhou Yi...

So does my original choice still make sense?

Guardiola walked into the locker room, clapped his hands and said: "Don't worry about other things, focus all your attention on the game in front of you. Being yourself is more important than caring about others!"

Gotze no longer even pretended to be in high spirits.

※※※

Completely different from Bayern Munich's locker room, Dortmund's locker room was filled with a relaxed and happy atmosphere, so when Klopp opened the door and felt the atmosphere, he immediately shouted: "What?! Do you want to celebrate the championship in advance?" Don’t you want to prepare the champagne now?!”

He shouted so loudly that the players were frightened, and everyone turned to look at him. Klopp's face was ferocious and angry, and the locker room was silent for a while.

"Do you think everything will be fine with 2:0? Think about AC Milan. They lost the game with a 3:0 lead. So anything is possible. As long as the game is not over, never think that you have won. It’s decided. In the second half, we have to play seriously. I will not accept the 2:0 score because I think it is unsafe. I hope you can score more goals and continue to expand the score until our opponents feel desperate!"

Dortmund's opponents are not only Hertha Berlin in this game, but also Bayern Munich.

Klopp doesn't know if Bayern Munich will give up because of the current score. He prefers to believe that his old rival is not so easily intimidated, so of course Dortmund must go all out to ensure safety.

But Klopp would never have imagined that he had actually completely defeated his old rival that he had been struggling with for several years this time...
