Chapter 239 Gaining the Upper Hand

Although Bayern Munich has strengthened its defense against Zhou Yi, it cannot really freeze Zhou Yi completely. He can always see the opportunity and send out passes. Some passes are simply fatal...

After Royce shot the ball on the side net, Bayern Munich did not shrink its defense, but continued to fight Dortmund.

But as the game time progressed, under Zhou Yi's organization, Dortmund's offense was obviously more threatening.

In the tenth minute, Dortmund stole the ball in the backcourt and took advantage of Bayern Munich's transition from offense to defense to launch a quick counterattack.

Zhou Yi dribbled the ball forward diagonally, and then passed the football straight to the front of Royce. It was also a weak point in Bayern Munich's defense.

Zhou Yi did not stop after passing the ball, but accelerated forward.

Bayern Munich's defense quickly returned to defense, and Boateng went to the outside to resist Royce's path. In this way, even if Royce receives the ball, the chance of cutting in and shooting directly is slim.

When Royce received the ball, Boateng was indeed stuck in the direction he was going.

Royce had no choice but to slow down, but at this time Zhou Yi had already moved forward at high speed and headed straight for the middle of the penalty area, so Royce did not waste any time and immediately sent the football over, intending to send a through ball to Zhou Yi.

The pass was indeed so sudden that Dante, another Bayern Munich center back who was retreating, wanted to stop and intercept, but fell backwards due to inertia.

However, even though Dent fell down, his trailing leg miraculously blocked the ball passed by Royce!

While Zhou Yi was running, he also looked back to pay attention to the situation behind him. When he saw the ball, he did not follow him, but was blocked by Dante. And it was really "blocked back" in the literal sense - the football returned to the same path and fell to Royce's feet!

Zhou Yi quickly braked - he was afraid that if Royce passed the football to him in an instant and he was offside, he would waste this offensive opportunity.

But Royce's reaction was not as fast as Zhou Yi expected. When the football bounced back to his feet, he shot directly!

A little outside the penalty area, he swung his legs and shot!

Royce is indeed very good. Even though he was swinging his legs on the spot and unable to exert force, his kick was still powerful and heavy, which was very threatening!

Just a little higher,

Neuer jumped up and missed the ball, which flew straight into the stands where Bayern Munich fans gathered behind the goal.

It caused a burst of exclamations and screams from the stands - that kick just now was also very threatening.

"Royce shot! It was high! Another great opportunity was missed!"

※※※

Four minutes later, Dortmund made a comeback. Gundogan sent a direct pass in the midfield to Zhou Yi who was running diagonally in front.

Faced with such a pass, Bayern Munich made preparations in advance. Bastian Schweinsteiger, who was following the defense, took the lead and got stuck in Zhou Yi's path. Zhou Yi will hit him directly after receiving the ball.

Not to mention passing the ball, it's good to be able to keep the ball.

But just when Zhou Yi was about to hit Schweinsteiger, he used his left heel to knock the ball from Gundogan directly to the center. At the same time, someone else bumped into Schweinsteiger, and the two of them Fell to the ground.

And the football has been passed by Zhou Yi with his heel to Lewandowski in the middle!

Lewandowski attempted to shoot directly, causing Dante, who was about five meters in front of him, to block with his body, but the Pole let the football roll past him, completing the adjustment and Dodge two functions. Then he moved sideways and raised his right foot again, this time for real!

A long shot with a curve ball!

The football flew past Dante and went straight to the upper right corner of the goal!

"Lewandowski--!!"

Amid Marcel Leif's exclamations, Bayern Munich goalkeeper Neuer jumped up almost as a reflex, raised his arms and dragged the flying football out of the crossbar!

"Manuel Neuer! Wonderful save! Wonderful shot!"

"After the opening, Dortmund had continuous shooting opportunities, threatening Bayern Munich's goal almost every time. It seemed that they were just a little bit away from scoring! But just that... they didn't succeed! But judging from the scene , Dortmund has clearly gained the upper hand. This is not surprising. In the two clashes with Bayern Munich this season, Dortmund won one and drew one, completely gaining the upper hand. Now in the Champions League final, it is not surprising to have such a performance... ..." He Ping said eloquently.

Bayern Munich indeed found no advantage at all during this period. On the scene, Dortmund was all threatening their goal, but Bayern Munich's counterattack was very weak.

This made Bayern Munich fans at the scene and in front of the TV anxious.

But they had no choice but to hope that Dortmund's opening three blows would pass quickly.

※※※

But Dortmund's offense has no intention of weakening it at all.

After the corner kick was taken, it was punched out by Neuer and fell to Zhou Yi's feet outside. Zhou Yi did not pass the ball immediately, but was observing.

The Bayern Munich players watched the football fly out and quickly pressed forward in an attempt to leave the Dortmund players who had not reacted behind and fell into an offside situation.

Seeing this, Zhou Yi immediately moved the football to the right wing and passed it to the feet of Royce who had just taken a corner kick and ran back, and it was not offside!

Royce received Zhou Yi's pass from the wing without being marked.

At this time, the Bayern Munich players had to retreat quickly, fearing that the unmarked Dortmund players behind them might take advantage of them.

If Royce dribbles the ball to the baseline and then crosses the ball, it is not offside. According to the rules, if the receiving player is behind the football at the moment of passing the ball, no matter how many defensive players are in front of him, he is not offside.

As a result, Bayern Munich could only switch to offense in a hurry. This kind of continuous offensive and defensive transfers is the most likely to cause problems.

And Dortmund is playing for such an opportunity!

Royce took a step forward and made a cross!

He didn't pass the high ball, and the football flew towards the goal against the turf!

Lewandowski attracted everyone's attention in the middle, so few people noticed that Kuba suddenly moved forward and fell to the ground at the front point to shoot!

The place where he shot was already at the corner of the small penalty area!

Very close to the goal!

Such a powerful and heavy shot, from such a close distance, before even the audience had time to scream, the football had already flown in front of the goal!

At this time, it’s Neuer again!

He once again made a world-class save, falling to the ground and expanding the defensive area. At this time, he no longer cared about whether to save the ball with his hands. As long as he could block the football, it didn't matter any part of his body.

Sure enough, the football hit his chest directly. After a muffled bang, it bounced high and flew out of the baseline!

"Neuer——! Great save! Amazing!!" Marcel Leif exclaimed.

"Dortmund once again created a threat in front of the goal, but they still failed to break through Bayern Munich's last line of defense - goalkeeper Neuer! If it hadn't been for Neuer, Dortmund might have been two goals ahead!"

The commentators all exclaimed and praised Neuer's performance.

Neuer, who made this wonderful save, stood up and yelled hard with his fists clenched. This shout was not only because of his outstanding performance, but also to boost the morale of the whole team.

From the start of the game, the initiative fell to Dortmund. Bayern Munich was suppressed by Dortmund and was very embarrassed. At this time, he, the goalkeeper, needs to stand up and make everyone feel at ease.

Kuba, who had not scored a goal, put his hands behind his head and looked at Neuer who got up from the ground in disbelief.

He felt that his shot was very beautiful, and the ball was firmly hit by the instep. Such a powerful and heavy shot could actually make Neuer save it... Is this kid still human?

Although Bayern Munich fans are applauding Neuer's save, they also have a shadow in their hearts - even if Neuer saves the opponent's shot this time, can he save the opponent's shot every time? If Bayern Munich keeps letting Dortmund keep playing like this, it will only be a matter of time before they concede the goal!

"After the opening, Bayern Munich has been under pressure. It seems that Dortmund reversed and won the league championship in the league, and the impact and blow on the team is still there... I feel that when Dortmund players faced Bayern Munich, They have a strong psychological advantage and are not afraid of Bayern Munich at all, and they are also very familiar with Bayern Munich. On the other hand, Bayern Munich is a bit restrained in the face of Dortmund's aggressive offensive and cannot let go..." He Ping analyzed.

"Although they imposed many restrictions on Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi's performance after the opening was still very outstanding. He completely controlled the situation on the court. Every threatening attack by Dortmund was related to him. As a Chinese player in the Champions League final, In his first show, Zhou Yi’s fifteen minutes were really, really successful and outstanding!” (To be continued)).
