Chapter 292 Gemini

No one likes to be led by the nose, and Schalke 04 is certainly no exception. So Yang Muge changed his original defense strategy against Zhou Yi. He began to follow Zhou Yi every step of the way. No matter where Zhou Yi went, he would always be at least one meter away from Zhou Yi, looking like Zhou Yi's shadow.

"Lao Yang and Zhou Yi, let's get a zodiac sign!" In the group, Sun Pan, who was watching the game broadcast, suddenly said.

"Ah?" Guo Nu was stunned for a moment.

"What is it?" He Ying didn't guess it for a while.

"Gemini!" Sun Pan announced the answer.

When everyone looks at the TV screen, there is always Yang Muge next to Zhou Yi. The two of them stand side by side and run side by side. They really look like Geminis...

"puff!"

"233333"

It was funny, but people on the court didn't think it was funny.

When Yang Muge closely guarded Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi also felt the pressure.

He has played against many first-class defensive midfielders. Compared with these first-class defensive midfielders, Yang Muge's overall strength is not as good as them, but there is one thing that stands out. That's resilience.

Lao Yang is a very resilient player. He is usually low-key and has no sense of presence. He is not a particularly dazzling star on the court. But if you ignore him because of this, you will suffer a big loss. He is quiet and low-key and does not show off, so he is the kind of opponent that is difficult to defeat. He pesters you, even if he doesn't even have a chance to show his face outside the country during a game, he doesn't care, as long as he can target you to death.

Regarding this, Zhou Yi was very clear when he was teammates with Lao Yang. In the virtual competition in recent days, he found that Lao Yang was stronger than before.

It's toughness is like chewing gum. Once it gets stuck on, it's not easy to shake it off.

No matter how Zhou Yi ran, Yang Muge always followed him.

Even when running without the ball.

The two of them were so close, which made it easier for them to chat.

"Old Yang, you don't have to follow me like this. Look, I haven't gotten the ball for a minute." Zhou Yi said to Yang Muge next to him.

"Of course, we are in possession of the ball this minute." Yang Muge replied.

"Aren't you tired from running like this?" Zhou Yi asked.

"My physical fitness is better than yours, Zhou Yi." Yang Muge said with a smile.

"Do you think you can contain Dortmund's offense by following me? I'm not the only one in Dortmund!"

"At least it can contain more than 50% of Dortmund's offense, right?"

"..." Zhou Yi was speechless for such a resilient Yang Muge.

"Are you sure you want to follow me like this all the time?" He finally had no choice but to ask.

While they were talking, Schalke 04 launched a quick attack and quickly hit the Dortmund goal from the backcourt. Then Farfan scored the football into the Dortmund goal!

The entire Schalke Stadium was like exploding at that moment. Schalke 04 fans jumped up from their seats, raised their arms and shouted.

Amid the cheers, Yang Muge turned to Zhou Yi and said, "I won't follow you now!"

After saying that, he ran towards the frontcourt to celebrate the goal with his teammates.

Zhou Yi rolled his eyes behind him.

※※※

"Farfan!! Schalke 04 has taken the lead! In just ten minutes, they took the lead!" Marcel Leif shouted excitedly. He is not a supporter of Schalke 04, but he is not Dortmund either. supporters. As a neutral commentator, he just made the game more exciting and intense. So the earlier the goal is born, the better.

Farfan was so excited after scoring that he even took off his shirt to celebrate.

This action earned him a yellow card after the celebration.

But it didn't matter, he didn't take it to heart at all. Being able to score in the derby is enough for him to be excited.

Draxler rushed to celebrate the goal with him. Farfan's goal came from his assist.

"Draxler said before the game that he would not let Dortmund celebrate the championship at the Schalke Stadium. He really worked very hard during the game!"

The Schalke 04 players ended their celebration and returned to their own half. The Dortmund players were already waiting for the kick-off in their own half.

Finally, Yang Muge is no longer around Zhou Yi.

Chinese commentator Duan Xin said: "Zhou Yi was active for a few minutes at the beginning of this game, and then was restrained by Yang Muge. It seems that Schalke 04 was right to let Yang Muge deal with Zhou Yi, because Yang Muge was the best I know and am familiar with Zhou Yi... He defended Zhou Yi every step of the way, which meant that Zhou Yi had no decent performance in these few minutes. After Zhou Yi was restricted, Dortmund's offensive efficiency immediately decreased, and it also gave Schalke 04 a chance to Take advantage of the opportunity. This goal was scored like this..."

In fact, Yang Muge's contribution is not as obvious as Duan Xin said, but it does exist. If Duan Xin were not a Chinese commentator, he might not have noticed or mentioned it. Most people will not notice what Yang Muge has silently paid.

This is unfair to Yang Muge, but Yang Muge doesn't care whether it is fair or not. He just needs to do his job well, and other people's evaluations are not important to him.

After the game restarted, Yang Muge quickly found Zhou Yi again in the crowd and came to his side.

Zhou Yi didn't chat with Yang Muge this time, he was thinking seriously. If nothing unexpected happens in this game, he will face this situation throughout the game - Lao Yang will definitely follow him 100% unless he is replaced, but I believe Schalke 04 head coach Stevens He shouldn't be such an idiot to replace Lao Yang.

So, how can I organize an attack when there is someone who is always with me?

If there is really no way to organize the offense well, then don't organize it.

This is Zhouyi's strategy.

Because as he said to Lao Yang, he is not the only one in Dortmund. Shinji Kagawa also has the ability to pass the ball, and he can also organize attacks. Originally I was a defensive midfielder, mainly controlling the rhythm.

And after Schalke 04 just scored, what Dortmund needs is not more through balls, but to stabilize the rhythm and frustrate Schalke 04. They just scored, and they will definitely want to take advantage of the situation to score more. Score a few goals.

At this time, if Dortmund plays against them, they will probably lose because their morale is not as high as the opponent's.

So at this time, you must use "softness" to resolve Schalke 04's "hardness", just like doing Tai Chi. Use softness to overcome strength, and dissolve Schalke 04's overwhelming power into the invisible!

Zhou Yi made more back passes and cross passes, and Yang Muge had nothing to do with him. He couldn't go around to defend and steal the ball, right? In that case, Zhou Yi would most likely pass the football directly to the front. Based on Yang Muge's understanding of Zhou Yi, he was sure that Zhou Yi would definitely do this.

So he could only stop Zhou Yi behind him and prevent him from going forward. As for Zhou Yi's back passes and cross passes, he was more of an interference, hoping that Zhou Yi would pass the ball crookedly under his interference. However, with Zhou Yi's ability, it is not easy to spread the message incorrectly.

Under Zhou Yi's continuous backpasses and cross passes, the pace of the game was gradually slowed down. The high morale after Schalke's 04 goal also gradually dropped in the slow-paced game. But they were still unwilling to let go of a perfect opportunity.

The decline in morale and inner unwillingness caused them to be somewhat divided. The Schalke 04 players behaved a little impatiently.

In Zhou Yi's view, this is a good opportunity.

Any ideological disunity on the part of the opponent will provide him with conditions for counterattack.

The only problem now is how to send the football to the most critical place to ensure a fatal hit without alerting the enemy.

Yang Muge is still keeping an eye on him. If Zhou Yi goes forward, Yang Muge will not be the only one defending him. He will face a harsh defensive environment, and the space will be compressed to almost zero.

This is the Ruhr area derby. Zhou Yi is not alarmist, but this will really happen.

How to launch an attack?

Zhou Yi still kept looking around during the game, observing the situation, trying to keep every corner of the court in mind.

Through observation, he discovered that Schalke 04's defense was not completely without loopholes. Because they wanted to score more goals, Schalke 04's offensive line was pushed higher up. In order not to be disconnected, their back line was also moved forward slightly. Only when Dortmund pushed the football into their frontcourt Only then will their defense quickly retract and retract into the penalty area. Before that, they were outside the penalty area.

Although the distance from the back line to the goal is not particularly far, the space is not particularly large either. But Zhou Yi felt that according to this pattern of Schalke 04's defense, it could be well utilized.

Of course, any attack cannot rely on Zhou Yi alone, but also requires the cooperation of other teammates. But Zhou Yi is not worried about this problem, because he has a group of very good teammates who are familiar with his playing ideas and know how to move to meet him.

So he just needs to give the football away.

Thinking of this, he took a few steps forward and came to near the center line.

Then he did not stand with his back to the direction of attack, but moved sideways along the center line from the side to the center circle. The speed was not fast, just like his usual jogging, without any warning.

Subotic passed the football from behind, first to Sven Bender, and then Sven Bender passed the football to Zhou Yi.

Generally in this situation, Zhou Yi will continue to pass or pass back after receiving the ball, controlling the rhythm as before.

No matter how Zhou Yi passed the ball, Yang Muge still pressed forward according to his usual strategy, preventing Zhou Yi from passing the ball forward or making a breakthrough.

But what he didn't expect was that Zhou Yi didn't stop the ball and directly kicked the football passed by Sven Bender with his right foot. The football flew past him and flew directly to... Gram 04's backcourt!

"Zhou Yi... passed the ball straight over the top!!" (~^~)
