Champion’s Heart

Chapter 87 No Regrets

After Yan Min finished shooting, when he saw the football missed the back post, he knelt on the ground and held his head in his hands, looking very regretful. . Fastest update

Mark and Royce, who were outflanking the goal, both made gestures asking for the pass. Now seeing the football go wide of the goal, they also looked at Yan Min, complaining with gestures and expressions.

"Ouch! Isn't this too reckless?" Zhou Jianliang shouted, slapping his thigh.

Zhou Yi also leaned on the sofa, looking very regretful.

On the sidelines, all the Dortmund coaches and players who were looking forward to the decisive equalizer seemed to have been on a roller coaster.

Buvac turned around and punched the ceiling of the coaching bench. The others were no better than him.

Klopp also gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.

On the Arsenal side, there was a sense of joy of "escaping from death", and many people breathed a sigh of relief.

When Yan Min broke through just now, they were scared to death. Now they applaud Yan Min's reckless choice.

Many Chinese fans on the Internet also expressed dissatisfaction with Yan Min's final choice.

"What a great pass! Royce and Mark are both in front of the goal!"

"Hey, it seems that this kid is still far from Zhou Yi..."

"I don't have any skills or speed. It's just that I didn't have a clear mind when I made the final choice..."

"This ball intelligence... is really touching! If he doesn't handle the ball correctly, I think his development prospects will be like this..."

"What's this kick? I was cheering for him when he broke through before.

That last shot really made me feel like I had eaten a dead fly! "

They vented their anger and disappointment at Dortmund's possible loss on Yan Min.

But Yan Min didn't know this.

He looked up at the sky, immersed in his own world, and didn't care how others looked at him.

The TV broadcast was replaying Yan Min's breakthrough and shot just now. The breakthrough was very beautiful. The continuous changes of direction made Sagna at a loss. The sudden stop to get out of Mertesacker was also amazing, but it was the last one. A shot...

If it were passed to Mark and Royce, there might be a completely different ending.

The commentators are still discussing this kick.

As a Chinese commentator, He Ping naturally had to speak up for Yan Min emotionally, so he tried his best to use a neutral and objective attitude: "Honestly, as an offensive player, with such a beautiful breakthrough before, facing the goal, it is not impossible to shoot. . Choosing to shoot is not something incredible or incomprehensible... It’s just that the footwork of the last shot was a little bit worse. I don’t think I should criticize him blindly..."

Marcel Leif, a German, was not so polite. After all, Yan Min's kick ruined Dortmund's hope of equalizing the score: "Yan Min's choice of shot was obviously without consideration. Maybe he was too fast. , Can’t your brain’s thinking speed keep up?”

Yan Min missed the opportunity in the 89th minute of the game. The fourth official then held up a sign indicating three minutes of injury time.

This injury time is not long, it is considered normal time, but it also means that there is not much time left for Dortmund.

Under such circumstances, the opportunity Yan Min lost just now seemed particularly precious and regrettable.

It's even possible. The missed goal by Yan Min dealt a very heavy blow to the morale of other Dortmund players.

But Yan Min himself seemed to know nothing.

After the game restarted, he was still running tirelessly in the frontcourt, looking for opportunities. It's not like he was sleepwalking and had an emotional breakdown just because he missed this opportunity...

Unfortunately, other Dortmund players seemed to have lost confidence in equalizing the score and were not able to provide him with much support.

In the end, Dortmund lost to Arsenal 1:2 away from home. The defending Champions League champions lost two of their first three group matches.

After being drawn into the death group several times, Dortmund finally got a taste of the real death group...

After the game, the media and fans were discussing the reasons why Dortmund lost the game.

Before the game, Zhou Yi did not go to London, which was considered to be the reason why Dortmund might lose the game away from home.

But after the game, this reason became Yan Min.

Yan Min's missed shot at the last moment of the game was considered to be the main culprit for Dortmund's loss.

Almost everyone thinks that Yan Min's choice is wrong. He should pass the football to others after the breakthrough. Whether it is Mark or Royce, they are all outflanking in front of the goal. As long as he passes the football, it may cause a goal. ball, and this possibility is still very high.

Some German media unkindly criticized Klopp's choice to replace Yan Min as a mistake.

"...Why not use Hoffman, who has played more games and has more experience? Instead of letting a fledgling youngster play in such an important game?"

The Chinese media are not as harsh as the German media, but rather tactfully shirk Yan Min's responsibility by passing the blame to Klopp.

"... Yan Min, as a newcomer to the team, had not played a minute in the official game before. Suddenly he was allowed to play in the Champions League and given such an important task. You can imagine the pressure he endured. You know. I think Yan Min's performance in the game is mainly the responsibility of Klopp. If you want a newcomer to find a feel for the game, the German Cup is a very suitable stage, or in the league when you are leading by a big score, it is also A good choice. But Klopp sent Yan Min on in a Champions League game that he had to win, and then Yan Min missed the best opportunity..."

"Klopp's actions put Yan Min under tremendous pressure for no reason. As a head coach, he should take this into consideration. But no, foreign media said Yan Min should be responsible for Dortmund's failure, but I think this accusation is completely It makes no sense, it’s Klopp who should be responsible for the team’s failure, not Yan Min!”

However, their approach has also caused dissatisfaction among many domestic fans, who believe that the Chinese media's blind protection of the calf is not conducive to the development of Chinese players in Europe.

"...How come Ren Zhouyi has never encountered this kind of thing?"

"Yes, He Ying, Sun Pan, Yang Muge and Guo Nu, when they were developing abroad, how did they encounter such bad things? I think they should reflect on it and defend their players blindly. This is Harm him!"

"It's a bad kick, it's a bad kick. Why are there so many excuses?"

"I know Yan Min. I watched him play when he was in Shanghai. His biggest characteristic is that he is independent! He doesn't like passing the ball. I didn't expect it to be the same after going abroad..."

"I remember he played like this in that reality show, right? He was criticized by Zhou Yi, right? I didn't expect him to be the same as before, never forgetting his original intention... After so many years, this problem has not changed. I don't know what Dortmund is. What do you like about him..."

Unlike the Chinese media, Chinese fans have much stricter requirements for their players, so strict that it even makes people wonder whether Yan Min is Chinese. This may be due to the educational tradition of our parents who have always been strict with us. We have been "lenient to others and strict with ourselves" since we were young.

Therefore, he is very strict with his players, even if they make the slightest mistake.

For a time, after losing, all kinds of criticism and pressure came to Yan Min.

When the Dortmund team returned to Dortmund Airport, many reporters directly asked Yan Min questions. This was the first time Yan Min had joined Dortmund.

Obviously, after losing, Yan Min became the focus of media attention.

"Do you regret that last shot?"

"Would it be better if the ball was passed to Mark or Reus?"

"Have you ever thought that if that kick had been a pass instead of a shot, Dortmund wouldn't have lost?"

"There are people who have this style in China. They don't like to pass the ball to teammates and like to work alone... Is it true?"

Chinese and German reporters, speaking Chinese, German, or English, threw their questions at them.

If Zhou Yi was on the team at this time, he would definitely pull Yan Min away or help him block all these offensive questions.

But it is a pity that Zhou Yi did not go with the team, so Yan Min had to face this scene by himself.

And with Yan Min's usual temper, it seemed difficult for him to give a decent answer.

So when he faced the camera: "I don't regret my choice to shoot. If I still have the chance, I will do it again." It's not surprising at all...

※※※

"... When Chinese player Yan Min, who only joined the team this season, was questioned at the airport about shooting or passing, he said that he did not regret that his shooting caused the team to lose the game. If it happened again, he would do it again. Choose to shoot, not pass..."

The sports news in the evening was broadcasting the news that the Dortmund team was back. Yan Min's answer was repeated by the host.

"Damn, these media are so idle!"

When Zhou Yi saw this news on TV, he almost slammed the table.

On the Internet, Yan Min's answer has already caused an uproar.

On Twitter and Facebook, it’s even more lively...

"Yan Min is out of his mind? He can actually give such an answer?"

"Haha, this is the quality of your country's professional players. It's really not surprising at all. I feel sad that my Royce has such an idiot teammate..."

"Yan Min has grown so much. Ever since he joined Dortmund, doesn't he know his last name? You have to say this..."

"So I, the Chinese players, really can't stop eating shit. This kind of words and deeds are simply discrediting the country!"

"It's such a disgrace that you sent it abroad. You're so capable!"

"I think we should go over the wall and apologize to Borussia Dortmund on Twitter, apologize to Royce and Mark, and never let them have a negative view of our Chinese players..."

"Heartbroken Zhou Yi, he must be caught in the middle now, doesn't he feel uncomfortable?"

For a moment, it seemed that the new image of Chinese professional football players that Zhou Yi and the others had worked so hard to create was completely destroyed by Yan Min's words...
