Chapter 128 Goosebumps

In Europe, every successful team has a stadium to match it. As the home stadium of Valencia, the Mestalla Stadium has a long-standing reputation and is a holy place in the minds of Valencia fans.

Now, Zhou Yi and his partners set foot on this holy place, and they didn't come here to worship, but to destroy it.

Anyway, Zhou Yi thinks so...

During the warm-up, the Dortmund players fully felt the "enthusiasm" of the Valencia fans-they used boos and curses to welcome the Dortmund players who came from afar.

This situation did not stop until the Dortmund players left the pitch and returned to the dressing room.

However, Dortmund players have been to many away games, and they didn't take this booing seriously.

In other words, in fact, they didn't care about the fans booing them at all. Their minds were full of the Champions League.

Being able to play in the Champions League is the pursuit of many European professional players. Some players are willing to change jobs in order to be able to participate in the Champions League.

Some teams have worked desperately for a season in order to be able to qualify for the Champions League next season.

Being able to participate in the Champions League is not only for the club's financial considerations, but also for the players' self-seeking considerations.

Being able to play in the Champions League can attract the attention of more wealthy families and reach the pinnacle of life from then on.

Everyone has their own goals and their own calculations. But they all have one goal in common, which is to win.

If you go home after six group games in the Champions League and lose every game, you become the laughing stock of the whole of Europe. How can you talk about your performance in front of the giants and your own football pursuits?

Klopp stood in the dressing room, his players had already changed and sat in their seats, watching him, waiting for his speech.

"I have nothing to say, lads. Some things you all know. It's a media world these days. What can be kept a secret? So what the media says about us, I'm sure you've seen it too .Many people think that it is good that we can participate in the Champions League this season. The important thing is to accumulate experience, not other things. But I don't think so. I hope that we will at least qualify from the group this season. For this reason, this first game It's important. I hope we can get off to a good start."

Klopp finished. He waved his hand and continued: "It is said that we have no experience.

But that was just a pretentious excuse. The experience of any team starts from scratch. Moreover, we have a lot of experience from others to learn from. Remember those things we've been emphasizing in our training. As long as you can seriously implement the training content into the competition, it doesn't matter if it is the Champions League. It’s still the league, there’s actually no difference…”

Klopp spread his hands and looked at everyone.

Zhou Yi nodded slightly.

He felt Klopp was right. Any experience is accumulated from scratch. No one is born with rich experience, the first step is always to go out. If you are afraid of the unknown future. And if you dare not take this first step, it is a complete failure.

"So, boys. Don't listen to the nonsense outside. Although they claim to be experts, they are just pseudo-experts in front of you! Because you are the ones who decide the final outcome, and you are the ones on the field!" Ke Lopp finally ended his speech with a passionate voice.

After Klopp finished speaking, captain Kyle also stood up, clapped his hands vigorously, and reminded his teammates loudly: "Guys! I want to remind you of one thing - the German team has an advantage over the Spanish team! So they should be scared now, not us! Come on!"

Although Kyle did not start this game, he is still fulfilling the accusation of a captain.

Encouraged by him, everyone stood up from their seats and shouted with him: "Come on! Dortmund! Come on!"

Zhou Yi was among them, and he liked the feeling that everyone was united and fighting for victory. This is a wonderful experience that only a team sport like football can bring him.

※※※

While Zhou Yi and his teammates were waiting in the player tunnel to play, the stadium broadcaster was broadcasting the starting lineups of both sides.

The focus is of course on the home team Valencia.

Every time a name is called on the live broadcast, there will be a burst of cheers from the Valencia fans in the stands.

Zhou Yi listened attentively, and found that the starting lineup for this match was exactly the same as the Valencia team he met in the virtual world.

He has more sense in his heart.

After introducing the starting lineup, the impassioned Champions League theme song sounded on the scene.

Zhou Yi had watched the live broadcast of the UEFA Champions League on TV before, and heard the theme song of the UEFA Champions League through the TV screen. Even in the virtual space, he had listened to the theme song countless times.

But this time, when he heard the theme song of the Champions League in the real time and space, he still felt his scalp tingling, as if an electric current passed through his whole body.

He swung lightly.

Then, he turned his head, stretched out his arms, and said to Shinji Kagawa behind him, "Look, goosebumps!"

Shinji Kagawa smiled, stretched out his arms as well, and said in not-so-fluent English, "Me too."

Zhou Yi saw goosebumps appear on his arms as well.

So Zhou Yi also laughed.

Anyway, this is the Champions League after all!

Apart from the World Cup, I am afraid that the highest stage for professional players is now!

※※※

After Zhou Yi stood still on the court, the noise in the stands became much quieter, and the passionate theme song disappeared long ago.

The huge stadium was full of people, but it suddenly became quiet.

This feeling is very strange. If you are not in the scene, you will feel very contradictory. But at this time, you will feel that this is not contradictory at all.

Zhou Yi looked left and right, looked at the positions of his teammates, and also saw clearly the positions of the opposing players.

While he was looking around, Mu En, the referee on duty for this game, blew the whistle to start the game.

"Friends from the audience! Welcome to a match in Group A of the UEFA Champions League group stage in the 2010-2011 season. Valencia will play against Dortmund at home!" He Ping's voice sounded.

As a La Liga commentator, He Ping naturally commented on La Liga matches, and he was not in charge of Bundesliga matches, so he usually wouldn't comment on Zhouyi matches. The Champions League is the only opportunity for him to explain Zhou Yi's game.

He was also a little excited.

What kind of performance can Zhou Yi show in the Champions League?

※※※

In front of the TV, Li Cuiyun, who was already asleep, was woken up by her husband: "Wake up, the competition has started!"

When Li Cuiyun opened her eyes, she saw the fluorescence of the TV screen reflected on Zhou Jianliang's face, casting a reflection in his eyes. When she looked at it suddenly, it seemed that Zhou Jianliang's eyes were shining, and the excited expression was uncontrollable. .

She froze for a moment before realizing why she fell asleep on the sofa, so she got up, leaned on her husband's shoulder, and turned her head to the TV.

On the TV, a close-up shot of her son happened to appear, so her drowsiness dissipated immediately, she raised her head from her husband's shoulders, and stared at the TV screen with wide eyes.

He Ying didn't go to watch the game, it was too unrealistic, but when the game started, he sat in front of the TV on time and watched the TV broadcast of the game.

Like him, Sun Pan, Yang Muge and Guo Nu also paid attention to the game through the TV broadcast.

At the same time, while watching the game, they did not forget to use QQ on their mobile phones to complain and exchange opinions in the group.

※※※

In this game, Valencia, who played at home, kicked off first. They used the ball possession advantage of the kick-off to attack Dortmund's goal. The Valencia fans in the stands cheered for their team with huge cheers.

Valencia's attack was quickly over. Aduriz's long shot from outside the penalty area was a bit outrageous.

If this were Dortmund's home court, the Dortmund fans would probably be gloating and booing in the Wester**** South Stand.

But here, there is only applause.

"Damn! There was applause for such a bad shot, and it really deserves to be Valencia's home stadium!" Seeing this scene, Sun Pan complained in the group.

※※※

After Valencia's attack was over, it was Dortmund's turn to have the ball.

Weidenfeller did not drive the football directly to the frontcourt, but passed the football to the central defender Hummels.

Hummels then passed the football to Zhou Yi.

When Zhou Yi received the ball, Zhou Jianliang, He Ying, Sun Pan, Yang Muge and Guo Nu in front of the TV, as well as countless Chinese fans who stayed up late or just got up, all squinted their eyes and stared at the picture on the screen seriously. Zhouyi. Those who had been yawning and sleepy before were all sleepy.

"This Zhouyi team's first touch of the ball in this game!" He Ping said as if announcing some important milestone.

After Zhou Yi received the ball, Valencia's top striker Soldado rushed up, trying to interfere with Zhou Yi's possession of the ball.

Zhou Yi passed the football without waiting for him to approach, and then quickly ran to the next spot. Then ask your teammates for the ball.

The teammates also passed the football over.

After he catches the ball, he passes the ball out again while continuing to change places to catch the ball. In the process, Dortmund pushed the ball over the halfway line and towards Valencia's thirty-metre zone.

It seems to be the same as Zhouyi's usual league games, but those who really understand can see some differences.

"Zhou Yi's running frequency is faster than his in the league." He Ying uttered such a sentence in the group.

"Don't pretend, He Ying. You can see this?" Sun Pan said disdainfully.

"He Ying is right." Yang Muge refuted Sun Pan's statement. "Dortmund are passing and receiving the ball faster too."

"I really didn't expect to hear commentary and guest analysis in the group after watching a game." Sun Pan rolled his eyes.

He Ying ignored Sun Pan and continued to watch the game intently.

He hasn't had a chance to play in the Champions League yet, and he wants to learn something from Zhou Yi's game.

I don't know when, Zhouyi has become his way forward...

And He Ying himself may not be quite aware of this. (To be continued.) Enable new URL
