Chapter 171 Two Completely Different Teams

Trim is doing his last pre-war mobilization for his team in the locker room.

But in fact, he didn't need to say anything more.

The snow has been falling since yesterday and today, and it has not stopped. Seeing that the game is about to start, it is still the same.

This is simply like God's will, so every player firmly believes in it.

This further stimulated their fighting spirit and made them realize how poor their performance was yesterday. It also made them look forward to today's game even more - they wanted to use today's game to atone for their sins.

Similarly, Klopp also mobilized the players in the dressing room.

"...I think Zhou Yi is right, this is just a two-round match. You might as well regard yesterday's game as our home court. We only won one goal at home. This is indeed not a satisfactory result. But is it possible? So we have to give up in the second leg?"

Everyone shook their heads: "No!"

"So today's second leg will of course be difficult, but why were we able to win the Champions League last season? We have also played more difficult games than today, and in the end we became the winner? You have to have This confidence - we are the defending champions, we will definitely win! No difficulty can defeat us, even..."

Having said this, Klopp raised his finger and pointed at the ceiling.

"Not even God!"

When the players from both sides walked off the court, the situation they saw was completely different from yesterday.

Even though it was afternoon, a large number of red flares were set off in the Ali Samyan Stadium. The red smoke almost covered the entire stands, making the entire stadium look like it was burning.

A large number of banners were also displayed in the stands. One of them, a devil-head tifo, was particularly eye-catching, with the classic text underneath: "Welcome to Hell!"

The home team fans in the stands roared and cheered, cheering for their team.

"Oh!" Zhou Yi, who looked up, exclaimed, "This is like the 'Hell's Home Field'..."

I heard the admiration in his voice,

Mark in front turned to him and said: "You still have such leisure..."

Zhou Yi smiled at him: "It seems that the unexpected interruption of the game gave Galatasaray fans a lot of unrealistic fantasies..."

Hearing what Zhou Yi said, Mark curled his lips.

Zhou Yi was so confident, but Mark couldn't do it. He was still worried. Look at the Galatasaray players next to them. Their eyes are different. Flames are burning in their eyes. As long as the snowflakes are close to their bodies, they seem to be evaporated by the high temperature.

"Relax, Mark." Zhou Yi comforted.

"Okay! With the referee's whistle, this highly anticipated make-up game begins!"

He Ping raised his voice. Fortunately, he was explaining from the studio behind. If he was commentating on the spot, his voice might be completely drowned in the huge noise at the scene.

Although it was a make-up match, Galatasaray fans did not treat it as a make-up match. On the contrary, they were even more enthusiastic than yesterday.

This made the Chinese fans in front of the TV even more worried.

The time is right, the place is right, the people are in the right place, Galatasaray is finished, Dortmund may be in trouble today...

After the game started, Galatasaray, playing at home, launched a fierce attack on Dortmund's goal amid the roars of the fans.

In order to avoid its edge, Dortmund could only shrink its defense.

The state of Galatasaray's players in this game was completely different from yesterday, and their fierce offensive had an effect.

In the seventh minute of the game, which was the 38th minute of the game, Galatasaray's fierce attack earned them a free kick in the frontcourt.

Sneijder passed the football directly to Dortmund's goal. Drogba jumped high in front of the goal and headed the ball back.

The ball caught Weidenfeller off guard.

When Weidenfeller saw the football flying towards him, it was too late to make any action. He could only watch the football fly into the goal from the near corner!

"Drogba——!! Well done!!" the Turkish commentator roared excitedly. "Only seven minutes into the make-up, Galatasaray equalized the score! This Galatasaray team is completely different from yesterday!"

After scoring, Drogba opened his arms and ran towards the corner flag area, and then made a domineering slide, leaving three clear marks on the snow-covered turf.

His teammates also ran to him and celebrated the goal with him.

Galatasaray has been eliminated from this group early, and has not even qualified for the Europa League. It can be said that it has completely packed up and gone home. But they have to fight for their own honor in this game.

In this season's Champions League group stage, Galatasaray's majestic Turkish giants failed to win a single game and lost all five previous games. This game is their last chance.

In front of the TV, Naples fans are also paying attention to this make-up match.

Many bars and cafes on the streets of Naples are broadcasting the live broadcast of this game, and Naples fans are also staring at the TV sets intently.

In this city in southern Italy, it is the first time that Naples fans are so focused on a game that does not involve the Naples team.

When Galatasaray equalized the score, the Naples fans in front of the TV jumped up and cheered.

It looked like Napoli had scored a goal.

If Galatasaray can draw with Dortmund, even if Naples only beats Arsenal by two goals, it will lead Dortmund in points and qualify for the group stage.

Every Napoli fan is cheering for Galatasaray from the bottom of his heart.

Now, their cheers have been reciprocated.

Some Napoli fans were even moved to tears.

※※※

While Napoli fans were happy and excited, Dortmund fans fell into silence.

What they were most worried about happened.

After the game was unexpectedly interrupted, many Dortmund fans were wondering, was this a bad sign?

If yesterday's game had not been interrupted, based on Dortmund's performance at that time, the fans would never have worried about any accidents. It's hard to say now.

The TV broadcast was originally showing the celebrating Galatasaray players, and then suddenly cut to the Dortmund players. In the screen, Zhou Yi was clapping his hands and saying something loudly to his teammates.

TV viewers cannot hear Zhou Yi's voice, but lip reading experts should be able to decipher some information from the changes in Zhou Yi's mouth shapes, but now everyone has to rely on guessing.

In fact, Zhou Yi said very simply: "This is their home court. It's normal for them to score a goal. It's not a big deal! The key is that we can still score!"

He was afraid that this goal would dampen the morale and fighting spirit of his teammates, so he spoke out to encourage everyone.

At this time, he looked like the captain of the team, except that he didn't wear the captain's armband...

※※※

In fact, since the Dortmund players viewed this game as a two-legged away game, everyone was mentally prepared for the difficulties they would encounter in this game.

The goal was certainly painful, but not frustrating enough.

Coupled with Zhou Yi's encouragement, many Dortmund players quickly settled down.

When the game restarted, Galatasaray, who had just scored a goal, was naturally boosted in morale and launched a fierce offensive towards Dortmund's goal.

They planned to score another goal in a short period of time and completely knock Dortmund into the ice cave.

But to their surprise, Dortmund, who was lagging behind, did not panic.

Facing Galatasaray's offense, their defense performed very tough.

And what's even more exaggerated is that Dortmund still has the energy to attack! Their counterattacks were also vigorous and quite threatening!

And it is impossible for Galatasaray to withdraw its defense because of Dortmund's counterattack. Now their morale is high and it is the time when they are in the best condition. If they don't win Dortmund in one go at this time, how long will they have to wait?

So although their defense was threatened by Dortmund's counterattack, Galatasaray also launched an offensive towards Dortmund's goal as always.

The two teams started fighting each other.

Both sides got some opportunities, but none of these opportunities were too good or fatal.

As a result, the score did not change again until the end of the half, and the first half ended at 1:1.
