Champion’s Heart

Chapter 132 Newborn Calves Are Not Afraid of Tigers

Yan Min stood on the sidelines, waiting for his teammate Shaheen to come off the court. In his mind, he was still thinking about what assistant coach Buvac said to him just now: "...Play as much as you can and use your breakthroughs to cause trouble for Bayern Munich's defense!"

He just likes this kind of pre-match instructions to give full play to his abilities, which suits him very well.

He remembered again the first game he saw after arriving in Dortmund, which was the German Super Cup match between Dortmund and Bayern Munich at home.

That game opened his eyes as a country boy who was exposed to European football abroad for the first time. He fully appreciated the highest level of competition in Germany and made him realize how right he was in choosing to play abroad.

Now, he finally had the opportunity to get rid of his status as a "spectator" and personally participate in such a high-level duel.

Yan Min was gearing up and couldn't wait.

He kept sitting on the sidelines and raising his legs to warm up, just like a racing car preparing to start burning tires at the starting point.

Shaheen did not dawdle down the field. He knew that time was precious for Dortmund now. He jogged all the way to the sidelines, and then high-fived Yan Min to hand over.

Before he even put his hand down, Yan Min beside him had already lowered his body and rushed onto the court.

"Yan Min! He replaced Shaheen. He performed very well in the Champions League against Arsenal, with a goal and an assist, and almost became famous with one goal. In the game, he had excellent explosive power and speed, as well as running at high speed. His dribbling left a very deep impression on us. I wonder how he will perform when facing Bayern Munich this time..."

Marcel Leif introduces Yan Min to German television viewers.

※※※

Yan Min found Zhou Yi immediately after he came on the field, told Zhou Yi in Chinese about Klopp's adjustments, and then conveyed it to other teammates through Zhou Yi. His German can be heard now, but it is still a bit difficult to speak. In such a tense game, there is little time for him to slowly organize grammatical vocabulary to explain to his teammates.

So he adopted a very clever approach.

"Push Aubameyang to the front line?" Zhou Yi confirmed to Yan Min.

Yan Min nodded: "Yes, I will play on the left, Aubameyang will play as a forward, and Mark will play as a double forward."

Zhou Yi thought for a moment in his mind, and then nodded: "I understand."

He understood what Klopp was thinking.

Letting Aubameyang play forward increases the team's contact points in the penalty area. When the team needs to open up the situation from the wing, there is only one mark in the penalty area, which will always affect the team's offensive efficiency.

Although Aubameyang played on the wing in Dortmund, he played as a forward in Ligue 1. Playing this position is not unfamiliar to him.

So next, Zhou Yi conveyed Klopp's instructions to Aubameyang.

Aubameyang made no objection and changed positions, while Yan Min occupied his original position.

Dortmund completed substitution adjustments.

※※※

Everyone knows why Klopp made such a substitution.

He hopes to use offense instead of defense. But the risk of doing so is too great, and there are still doubts whether Yan Min can take on such an important task after he comes on the field.

In the face of the general trend, individual player performance does not necessarily determine the outcome of the game.

Yan Min didn't think too much. He just remembered what assistant coach Buvac said to her: "Play as much as you can."

Since you are giving it your best, what else is there to consider?

When Yan Min touched the ball for the first time after coming on the court, he resolutely implemented this idea.

After receiving Zhou Yi's pass, he did not take the ball away immediately. Of course, he might not be able to rush out with the ball right away, because right in front of him is Bayern Munich's defensive player. If he does this, he will most likely hit him with the ball.

He stopped the football at his feet, his whole body almost still.

For a fast player, the threat will be greatly reduced if he cannot run.

Yan Min is also a fast player, so of course this rule should apply to him.

So when he slowed down or even stopped completely, Bayern Munich right back Rafinha, who was guarding him from the front, also relaxed his vigilance slightly.

But just when Raphinha relaxed his vigilance, Yan Min, who had already stopped, suddenly nudged the football forward with his toes, and then started to accelerate on the spot!

Raphinha was completely caught off guard. He was slower than Yan Min in terms of reaction time and starting speed.

When he turned around to chase after him, Yan Min had already rushed several meters behind him.

"Good shot! Nice breakthrough!"

"The startup speed is so fast! The explosive power is so strong!"

The commentators exclaimed.

After the breakthrough, Yan Min sent the football to the center, and Mark took the shot, but Mark missed.

No one paid attention to the shot of Mark's shot. The moment when Yan Min broke through Raphinha was replayed twice later.

Yan Min went from being still to starting, and in the blink of an eye, he threw away Rafinha, fully demonstrating his explosive power.

Klopp and Buvac looked at each other and saw joy in each other's eyes.

Yan Min is a very strange player. He is young and has little experience. Logically speaking, such a player should keep a low profile. However, after several months of contact with him, everyone discovered that this person is not like that. He always behaves confidently and ambitiously, which is not always flattering, but sometimes his shortcomings turn into strengths.

For example, at this time, he can not be affected by external factors, such as the hatred between Dortmund and Bayern Munich, and the issue of a battalion of injured soldiers... they can all be put aside and concentrate on the game.

Such people can often burst out with huge energy at such times.

Just like last time against Arsenal.

At this stage, Aubameyang should be the starter most of the time. It will be difficult for Yan Min to completely steal Aubameyang's starting position. But when he comes off the bench, he can play a greater role.

On the one hand, he is full of energy and fast, but after dozens of minutes of hard work, his opponent's physical energy has declined, and naturally he cannot keep up with Yan Min's rhythm.

On the other hand, letting him come off the bench can also increase tactical variability, making it difficult for opponents to guard against.

※※※

In the 67th minute of the game, Bayern Munich besieged Dortmund in the frontcourt. They kept getting to their feet and looking for opportunities.

But while they are looking for opportunities, Zhou Yi is also looking for opportunities, looking for opportunities to steal the ball.

He is not good at defense, but that does not mean that he has no contribution to the team's defense.

As long as he chooses the right method, sometimes he can transform into an interception master in an instant...

Just like now.

Toni Kroos saw that Gotze had run into the space in the Dortmund defense, so he immediately sent a through ball!

But on the way, he was stopped by Zhou Yi who suddenly came out!

"Zhouyi! Beautiful break!"

When Cross saw that his pass was intercepted, he rushed forward and counterattacked on the spot.

But Zhou Yi moved faster than him. He blocked the ball with his left foot and then kicked it with his right foot!

The football was passed directly to the center circle.

Yan Min ran horizontally to receive Zhou Yi's pass, but he did not stop the ball. Instead, he kicked the football diagonally forward while running, and then accelerated diagonally to chase the football.

This caught Martinez off guard, who was planning to intercept him. He was planning to intercept Yan Min head-on, but now Yan Min directly threw the football behind him. He also had to turn around, but his speed was poor. Far……

So he stretched out his hand to pull Yan Min.

But he didn’t pull it!

Yan Min was very fast and he only caught a burst of air.

Yan Min, who used his speed to break through Martinez, accelerated to catch up with the ball.

But at this time, in front of Yan Min was Bayern Munich's entire defense.

Rafinha and Boateng came up to defend Yan Min together. There was an angle between the two of them. The distance was not far, so they could assist each other in defense.

It is not easy for Yan Min to break through such a defense.

Most people will choose to slow down when faced with such a defense and wait for their teammates to come up to meet them.

But Yan Min didn't do this. Instead, he accelerated the ball and rushed towards Rafinha. When he was about to approach Raphinha, he suddenly stopped and changed direction, raised his right foot, and kicked the football with the instep of his outside foot, which meant that he was going to cut inside.

Rafinha also adjusted her center of gravity and turned around.

But Yan Min's right foot did not really touch the football. Instead, he suddenly stopped when he was about to touch the football, and then flicked the ball from the outside instep to smashing the ball with the inside of his foot!

He dunked the football to the left again!

At the same time, his body tilted greatly, and he almost lost his balance. With the support of his left foot, he actually twisted to the original direction!

Then with a lunge, he threw away Rafinha who had no time to adjust his center of gravity!

Yan Min, who had passed Raphinha, caught up with the football again and pushed the football in with the inside of his left foot. Boateng came over and planned to stop him.

At the same time, Rafinha also hurriedly turned around and chased back.

If Yan Min hesitated for a moment, he might fall into a situation surrounded by two people again.

Facing Boateng, the main center back of Bayern Munich and the German national team, the fledgling Yan Min was not afraid at all. He didn't even raise his head to look at the opponent. When he lowered his head to dribble the ball, he suddenly raised his left Use your feet to make a pass.

But when he swung his foot down, he did dunk the football to the right.

A fake move!

Boateng was not fooled. When he saw him spiking the ball, he turned his body back and continued to block in front of him, forcing him to slow down and prevent him from breaking into the penalty area.

Raphinha was also closing in on him.

Yan Min had just dunked the football to his right foot. This time he finally looked up and looked inside the penalty area. He saw Aubameyang trying his best to penetrate from the outside.

So he swung his right foot again, and this time it was probably a cross, right?

Seeing him waving his feet, Boateng also stretched out his feet to block the path of Yan Min's pass.

He believed that Yan Min should make a pass this time, because if he didn't, he would lose the ball.

But he made a mistake...

Yan Min actually dunked the football back with his right foot!

At the same time, he turned around again and broke through!

Just passed by Boateng and rushed into the penalty area!

"WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!" When Yan Min succeeded in breaking through, a huge exclamation sounded from the stands.

"Opportunity——!" Duan Xin shouted in a long voice.
