Chapter 80 This Is the Ruhr Derby

Chinese reporters reported Zhou Yi's attitude towards this game, and they could only say that he looked very calm and looked like a general.

So Chinese fans saw positive reports about Zhouyi.

In the face of such an important game, Zhou Yi's performance is so calm, which is really admirable.

They don't know what the reporters were thinking when they wrote these stories.

They probably all think that Zhou Yi's acting skills are superb...

"The Ruhr Derby, just thinking about it makes people excited!" In the group, Zhou Yi could feel Guo Nu's excitement through network cables and computer screens.

"It's okay, it's okay." Zhou Yi answered him with the same attitude as he answered the reporters.

"Hey, Zhou Yi, are you not nervous?" Yang Muge asked.

"There's nothing to be nervous about. I've also played in the Ruhr Derby." Zhou Yi said.

"Tch, the youth team has nothing to say." Sun Pan poured cold water on Zhouyi.

"Panpan, have you played in the youth team yet?" Zhou Yi asked.

"Brother is now the main force!" Sun Pan said proudly.

"Congratulations, you are one step closer to being a substitute for Cech in the first team!" Zhou Yi said.

How could Sun Pan fail to hear the ridicule in Zhou Yi's words, so he rolled his eyes.

He Ying, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "Zhou Yi, you should pay attention to the opponent's defense in the game. The derby is different from ordinary games. The opponent's feet are very heavy."

"I will, Old He."

"Well, when it's necessary... I mean when it's necessary, not at any time, if the other party is too much, you can... flop." He Ying added.

"Hey, He Ying, will La Masia teach diving?" Sun Pan jumped out.

Last season, Barcelona led by Guardiola won the Triple Crown. Among them, in the second round of the semi-finals of the Champions League, Barcelona challenged Chelsea away. Controversial.

In fact, there was a bridge between Chelsea and Barcelona before. But this game,

The grievances between the two parties reached their peak.

As Sun Pan, who plays for the Chelsea youth team, he naturally doesn't have a good impression of Barcelona.

He Ying himself didn't feel much about this kind of grievance, facing Sun Pan's provocation. He replied indifferently: "How is it possible? Of course not."

Yang Muge came out to smooth things over and changed the subject. Said to Zhou Yi: "Zhou Yi, I should be watching the game at the time..."

"Ha, then you have to be careful when you cheer for me. People around you will beat you up like Dortmund fans!" Zhou Yi laughed.

"You think too much, Zhou Yi. Old Yang wouldn't do that, he's your enemy!" Sun Pan said.

"Yes, Zhou Yi. I will cheer for Schalke 04." Yang Muge said.

"Traitor, Lao Yang!" Zhou Yi said righteously. "You are indeed a Schalke 04 player. But please remember, you are first and foremost a Chinese!"

Next, Sun Pan, Guo Nu, He Ying and Yang Muge lined up to roll their eyes at Zhou Yi.

Sun Pan: "This is on the Internet, if it is face-to-face. Zhou Yi, you will hear the booing of the four of us!"

Zhou Yiman said indifferently: "Tch, can it be louder than Ao's booing at the Schalke Stadium?"

Sun Pan was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Okay, you won..."

※※※

The booing at the Schalke Stadium was indeed loud.

This is Zhou Yi's feeling standing in the player tunnel.

At this moment, he is in the passageway to the Schalke Stadium, standing with his teammates waiting to play.

But now, he is not deep in the virtual space, but in the real world.

That's right, Dortmund's away game against Schalke 04 has arrived and is about to start.

Now the rosters of the two teams are being broadcast on the radio outside the stadium.

Now it is only mentioned that the away team in this game is "Dortmund", and there have been boos all over the sky when the pride goes to the Schalke Stadium.

However, this did not move Zhou Yi, because he had heard the same booing countless times in the virtual world, so much so that now he could directly filter out the booing of the opponent's fans.

When the game starts, as long as a Dortmund player takes the ball, they will hear boos from Schalke 04 fans, regardless of whether the Dortmund player has any grievances with Schalke 04 fans before.

Just wear a Dortmund shirt and get booed.

This is Zhou Yi's first time participating in the Ruhr Derby of Dortmund's first team. He had no grievances with Schalke 04 fans before, but as long as he has the ball, he will also be booed and scolded.

This was also enjoyed by the Schalke 04 players in the first round. At that time, Dortmund fans would boo the stadium as soon as a Schalke 04 player got the ball.

So Zhou Yi is already very familiar with this, and this is nothing more than trying to create pressure on you.

He doesn't care.

※※※

Zhou Yi didn't have to pay attention to the boos from the fans in the stands, because no matter how much the fans booed, they couldn't really come down to the field to interfere with him.

But Zhou Yi couldn't help but care about what the Schalke 04 players did.

As soon as the game started, Shaheen fell into the opponent's double-team.

According to previous experience, after Shaheen is double-teamed, he will quickly transfer the football out. Out of trust in Zhou Yi's ability, he would pass football to Zhou Yi most of the time.

So after encountering the pinch defense, Shaheen quickly transferred the football to Shaheen.

This is also one of the manifestations of dual-core tactics, that is, once a core is marked to death, the work of running the team can be handed over to another core.

And if the opponent wants to limit the two cores, their defensive strength elsewhere will inevitably be insufficient, and that is the time for other Dortmund players to take advantage of it.

So in theory, dual-core tactics have certain advantages.

But in the Ruhr derby, everything is different and has to be rethought.

For example, when Zhou Yi just received the ball, he was hit hard from behind.

A stagger made him almost lose the ball, if his foot hadn't hooked the football along the way...

But even if this is the case, he barely controlled the ball, but it was difficult to talk about organizing the offense after getting the ball. It would be good if he could guarantee not to lose the ball.

Moreover, just after he regained control of the ball, the people behind him hit him again. One more time, guaranteed loss.

So Zhou Yi had no choice but to pass on the football.

Of course, he didn't bother to think about who would be the best choice, as long as he could pass the football to his teammates. Just keep football under Dortmund's control.

subsequently. He turned his head and glanced at the Schalke 04 player who bumped into him.

Kevin Kuranyi.

The tall Schalke 04 striker.

A striker came to press down on a Dortmund attacking midfielder, which shows how strong Schalke 04's press is.

Zhou Yi was not very surprised by this.

In the simulated game, he has already seen Schalke 04's tactics.

The virtual Schalke 04 also knows the weakness against his weak strength.

But you know what you know. But there is no good way. After all, it is Zhou Yi's natural weakness that his body is not strong enough, and there is no way to improve in a short period of time. Even if Zhou Yi knew that Schalke 04 would do this. It is also impossible for him to become stronger overnight, and then transform into a heavy tank to directly crush the opponent.

This point cannot be changed no matter how many times Zhou Yi simulates the game.

※※※

next. The game continued.

As long as Zhou Yi gets the ball, it doesn't matter who the opponent is. Those who are close to him will rush forward and use their physical advantage to squeeze Zhou Yi, forcing him to miss the ball.

Shaheen was double-teamed. Zhou Yi was physically crushed by the opponent.

Dortmund's midfield was not working well, and Schalke 04 naturally suppressed the scene.

Schalke 04, who played at home, had the upper hand. The decibels of the cheers in the Schalke stadium have always been high. It hurt people's eardrums.

"Zhou Yi has been closely guarded by Schalke 04, so it is difficult to perform at a normal level..." In the live broadcast room of CCTV, commentator Duan Xin frowned. "Zhou Yi's previous performance has always been excellent. In this derby in the Ruhr area, he was heavily marked by the opponent, but it was normal. It can only be said that they caught a weakness of Zhou Yi, and this weakness was very effective. In addition, the derby was originally The kick was very rough and savage, and the referee's penalty scale was a bit loose compared to ordinary games. So..."

He didn't go on, but the Chinese audience in front of the TV knew what it was all about.

They also looked very anxious, but they couldn't help much, and they couldn't even hear Zhou Yi shouting for cheers.

Zhou Jianliang sat in front of the TV, clenched his fists, leaned forward, very nervous.

His wife, Li Cuiyun, was also very nervous beside her. Whenever Zhou Yi was kicked by the opponent or fell to the ground, she couldn't help but ask her husband next to her: "Is your son okay? How is your son?"

Zhou Jianliang answered her perfunctorily at first: "It's okay, it's okay, don't worry."

I got annoyed at the end: "Oh, you just watch the game, why ask so many questions!"

"What if our son gets injured?!" Li Cuiyun is usually a very aggressive woman, but she cares about her son's health, so she never likes Zhou Yi to play football? Because she always felt that playing football was a very dangerous sport, which would break arms and legs.

"How could it be possible to be injured? These collisions are normal phenomena on the football field..." Zhou Jianliang was also speechless about his blind wife.

"Then why are you nervous? Look at the way you shrug your shoulders..." Li Cuiyun pointed at Zhou Jianliang and said.

"I'm worried that he will be restricted by the opponent's style of play and not perform well!" Zhou Jianliang yelled, his son is not doing well, and he is not in a good mood as a father. In front of his wife, it is rare for a man to get up.

※※※

Zhou Yi fell to the ground again, this time not in his own backcourt, but in the opponent's backcourt.

"Bordon!" said Marcel Leif. "The blow he gave Zhou Yilai was really ruthless, it hit Zhou Yi's hip directly! It hurts to look at it! The referee didn't give him a yellow card, it's really merciful..."

The referee did not give Bordon a yellow card, which also made Klopp very dissatisfied. He jumped up on the sidelines and yelled into the field: "Give the card! Such an obvious intentional foul!"

The fourth official Trautman came up and only signaled Klopp to retreat to the dotted line, but did not say anything to Klopp's words.

This is the derby in the Ruhr area, the most popular derby in Germany. It is normal for the coaches of both sides to vent their emotions by yelling on the sidelines, so there is no need to pay too much attention. An experienced referee, even the fourth official, knows how to control the situation.

Manuel Grafi, the referee on duty for this game, didn't hear Klopp's yelling, or didn't pay attention to it.

Seeing that the referee ignored him, Klopp had no choice but to turn around and complain to his assistant coach Buvac: "Damn home field advantage!"

He was worried that Schalke 04's rough style of play would destroy Zhou Yi, both physically and psychologically.

Counting today's game, it was Zhou Yi's eleventh game in the Bundesliga. For a professional player, he lacked experience. In the past ten games, Zhou Yi had never suffered from this level of physical damage. confrontation.

Other teams also had some physical confrontations against Zhou Yi, but compared with the Ruhr Derby, they were nothing.

Zhou Yi has never experienced such a scene, which makes Klopp worried.

In the face of Klopp's complaints, Buvac was also speechless. He didn't know how to comfort his boss.

In other words, he also has the same worries as Klopp.

※※※

The TV broadcast gave Schalke 04 coach Magath a shot.

The devil coach is now sitting on the coaching bench with a calm face, watching the game with his legs crossed.

It seems pretty laid back.

It seems that the competition on the court is not fierce at all.

No one knew that Magath was recalling the arrangements he had made to the players before the game.

"...Dortmund still insist on their so-called dual-core, but in this game we will completely disable their dual-core. To deal with Shaheen, we adopt double teams. Shaheen has just returned from injury, and he must be very worried about the injury now. So as long as you are tough in defense, it is enough for him to retreat. The next point is Zhou Yi. This Chinese has excellent passing accuracy and vision, but he has a fatal flaw, that is, his body is too thin .”

In the locker room, Magath was emphasizing the tactics of the game to his players, while the Schalke 04 players listened carefully.

"Remember to use your bodies reasonably and master the speed of the collision. It is not so easy to foul. Constantly put pressure on him, disrupt his rhythm, and make him unable to play normally. I think as long as you keep playing like this, you can overcome Luo Pu had to replace the Chinese boy..."

He is now very satisfied with the performance of the players, they faithfully carried out their tactical tasks.

And so far, the defense against Zhou Yi was the first foul. Nine minutes into the game, he was already very satisfied.

※※※

Gross Kreutz pulled Zhou Yi up and asked with concern, "Are you all right?"

Zhou Yi grinned and shook his head: "It's okay."

This expression does not seem convincing.

Gross Kreuz looked at the Schalke 04 players and said angrily: "They are too bullying! Those Schalke bastards!"

Dortmund and Schalke 04 have always been sworn enemies. Gross Kreutz, who grew up in Dortmund's youth training camp, is naturally a staunch anti-Schalke.

However, Zhou Yi seemed very calm about this, and he comforted Gross Kreuz in turn: "This is the Ruhr Derby, sir."

Hearing what Zhou Yi said, Gross Kreutz looked at Zhou Yi in surprise: "Did you get hit on the head just now?"

Zhou Yi knew what he meant, and rolled his eyes: "What are you thinking? Don't worry, uncle."

Gross Kreutz was still a little suspicious. He threw a math problem to Zhou Yi to test whether Zhou Yi's head was normal: "What is thirty-six plus sixty-four times seventy-eight!"

"Seven thousand and eight hundred. Is there any question?" Zhou Yi gave the answer in less than a second.

Gross Kreutz was stuck.

"Do you need a calculator, sir?" Zhou Yi asked.

"Forget it!" Gross Kreutz waved his hand, "I'm relieved to see that you're fine, goodbye!"

After speaking, he turned around and ran away. Afraid that Zhou Yi would stop him from behind, he ran quite fast... (To be continued.) Activate the new website
