Champion’s Heart

Chapter 132

Barrios scored twice and Mestalla fell into an embarrassing silence. Afterwards, huge boos and other sounds came out together, hitting everyone's eardrums and hearts.

The TV broadcast gave Emery a close-up. The Valencia young marshal frowned, pursed his mouth, and his face was livid.

He obviously didn't expect this game to be played like this.

But Emery didn't intend to accept his fate.

After all, this is his home field. Wouldn't it be too ugly if he just surrendered like this?

The Valencia players have no intention of giving up.

It would be a shame to be beaten at home by a rookie team in the Champions League for the first time in seven years...

So after the start of the game, Valencia almost crazily launched a violent attack on Dortmund's goal.

And Klopp also made adjustments to let the team shrink the defense, first to withstand this wave of offensive.

Zhou Yi was not surprised by Valencia's performance. In so many simulated games, Valencia also chased after falling behind. After all, this is their home court. It's normal to have such a reaction. It would be strange if Valencia suddenly lost his fighting spirit at this time...

This is not a knockout match. If someone else scored two away goals at home, and the total score is still two goals behind, then there is a possibility of losing the battle**. Because under such circumstances, the home team needs to score three goals in a row in the remaining 20 minutes, which is almost an impossible task.

But now, it's just a group, and it's not enough to make Valencia feel hopeless.

In the face of Valencia's crazy counterattack, Dortmund can only shrink the defense.

And Zhou Yi was substituted in the 77th minute.

Because his contribution in defense is not great, when the team needs extreme defense, Klopp believes that it is dangerous to keep him on the court, and it is easy to become a breakthrough for the opponent's indiscriminate bombing, so he replaced Zhou Yi with Kyle. down.

"Zhou Yi was replaced, and he has successfully completed his task! In this game, Dortmund's two goals are directly and indirectly related to him... If Dortmund wins this game in the end, it can be said that Zhou Yi He is the biggest contributor to the team's victory!" This is He Ping's words, in his opinion, Zhou Yi's contribution is much greater than that of Barrios who scored twice, this is what a qualified Chinese commentator does.

And in Marcel Leif's view.

Zhou Yi's contribution to the team is as important as that of Barrios.

"If Dortmund can win this game, there are two most important heroes. They are Barrios and Zhou Yi. Zhou Yi is responsible for organizing the offense, and Barrios is responsible for converting his organized offense into goals. This is The first official Champions League game for these two players, but the performance of both of them impressed us. There is no sense of nervousness in the first game. I see the hope of Dortmund in them... "

Marcel Leif's evaluation is also very high, but he is still a little more rational than He Ping.

After leaving the field, Zhou Yi applauded to the fans in the stands, but most of what he got were boos and middle fingers, because this is Valencia's home stadium, and the fans here don't like a team that makes their team lose. people.

But Zhou Yi didn't care. With a relaxed smile on his face, he continued to wave his arms to the stands, applauded, and then left.

I don't know if he is really thanking the fans, or provoking the fans...

In short, he was finally replaced.

I believe Valencia can breathe a little easier.

When the boos kept coming from the TV. Zhou Jianliang applauded his son in front of the TV.

In fact, this scene makes a person who is completely ignorant of the inside story look quite stupid, and even think that Zhou Jianliang is a little pretending.

But this is the natural expression of a fan's feelings.

Even if it wasn't his son, he would still perform such a ritualistic action on a player he likes, not to mention that it was still his son...

Li Cuiyun watched her husband stand seriously in front of the TV and applauded her son.

She didn't think it was weird.

Because her son has become a professional player, she has also accompanied her husband to watch a lot of games over the past year, and she can already understand the emotions of the fans to a certain extent.

When she didn't watch football before, she felt that the fans were a bunch of lunatics, which was completely unreasonable.

Who would make so many crazy moves in the stands?

Now she knows. When a person has spiritual sustenance and belief, it is not surprising that no matter how crazy he can do it.

She also clapped her hands and applauded her son.

After Zhou Yi ended. Although there are two defensive midfielders in the midfield, Dortmund's defense is hardly successful. Facing Valencia's desperate shock, Dortmund was in a mess.

Marcel Leff said: "It stands to reason that after replacing a defensive midfielder, the defensive hardness of the midfielder should have been improved. This should not happen... Dortmund seems to be shown by Valencia. The momentum of life is frightening, I don't know how to kick it... It's dangerous!"

While speaking, Mata suddenly took a long shot. It penetrated Dortmund's layers of defense, forcing Weidenfeller to make a very thrilling save-his fingertips pulled the football out of the bottom line!

After getting up, Weidenfeller slapped his hands hard and yelled at his teammates, not knowing whether he was reminding them or scolding them...

After the end of the game, Zhou Yi also became a little nervous.

After all, this is the Champions League, leading by two goals is not a lead at all.

Fortunately, Dortmund finally passed the adaptation period without Zhou Yi, and gradually stabilized the defense. The two central defenders, Subotic and Hummels, have strong frontal interception capabilities. There is too much space behind, and it is not so difficult for Valencia to score goals.

In the end, Dortmund held the two-goal lead in the away game and took three points without any risk.

This is also their first victory in the Champions League in seven years, the first three points.

After the game, the Dortmund players celebrated a lot, which simply aroused the hatred of the Valencia fans.

Looking at the way these Dortmund players celebrated, Marcel Leif said: "Looking at it now, it was worthwhile to lose to Wolfsburg at home. In the away game, Klopp made sure to have a healthy and state Great team without being drained by the league... but how will they face Schalke 04 in the derby at the weekend after draining a lot of energy in the Champions League?"

This is really a problem, but at this moment, no Dortmund player or coach will consider such a problem.

Let's celebrate the victory first.

In fact, this will indeed affect the next league, after all, there are only four days between the two games.

Dortmund is playing away again, with long-distance travel and fierce competition, it is hard to say whether three days is enough for the players to recover to their best condition.

This is one of the reasons why Zhou Yi was replaced in advance, and Klopp must have thought of the next Ruhr Derby.

The league game against Wolfsburg can be given up for the Champions League, but the game against Schalke 04 is impossible to give up anyway.

If the game against Schalke 04 is before this Champions League game, maybe Klopp will give up this Champions League group match for the Ruhr Derby.

After the game, the team collectively flew back to Dortmund overnight.

On the plane, Klopp announced a day off for the team.

Although the game against Schalke 04 is four days away, rest and relaxation are still essential. If there is not enough rest, the team will not be in a good state to meet the opponent.

On the second day of the competition, Zhou Yi slept until almost noon before getting up.

However, he felt very tired. This time, it was rare for him to choose to enter the virtual space training during sleep, because he only wanted to sleep, completely and purely.

This time I slept soundly, without even having a dream.

It can be seen that Zhou Yi is indeed tired and spent too much energy in the match against Valencia.

This feeling has never been felt before... The Champions League is indeed different from any game Zhou Yi has experienced before.

The rhythm is faster, the confrontation intensity is higher, and it consumes more energy.

After waking up, Zhou Yi, who didn't have to go to the training base to participate in the training with the team, turned on the computer and browsed the reports of the major media after the game, both foreign and domestic.

It's a regular program.

The German media and the Chinese media are very happy that Dortmund can beat Valencia.

Even some unexpected surprises.

Seeing such comments, Zhou Yi rolled his eyes while sitting in front of the computer.

Because some media even defined Dortmund's victory as "unpopular".

He wondered if the reporter and editor who wrote this had ever watched the game, but those who watched the game probably wouldn't think it was an upset.

Dortmund were in control for the most part and it was no surprise to win this.

Not to mention his contribution.

If the media were surprised by this victory, wouldn't they be surprised by his performance?

This is not true. The Chinese media only flatter and praise Zhou Yi desperately, without any doubts. The German media also stated fairly and objectively that Zhou Yi performed very well in his first Champions League match, as calm and calm as a battle-tested veteran.

Although they are all praising him, the German media's words are more cautious and restrained, not as unruly as the Chinese media, such as "one person dominates the game, Zhou Yi reminds people of the ball king Maradona" "Chinese genius shines" Champions League, become the best player in the Champions League for a week" "Zhou Yi surprised the whole of Europe, Valencia can only fall and tremble at his feet"...

These words would blush for ordinary people.

But Zhou Yi is not an ordinary person. He quite likes to read articles that praise him. After reading it, he feels refreshed.

No worries of complacency at all. (To be continued.) Enable new URL
