Chapter 193 It Couldn’t Be Any Worse
When Sven Bender shoveled the ball into the Dortmund goal, Marcel Leif exclaimed: "Oh my God - an own goal! Sven Bender scored an own goal! This is terrible for Dortmund Got it!"
He quickly reacted: "Did I say the same thing before? It's okay, this time it's worse than last time!"
Duan Xin was also surprised. He just said before that as long as nothing unexpected happens and Dortmund continues to play according to the established plan, there will be no big problem. As a result, not long after he finished speaking, reality gave him a loud slap in the face...
Didn't this accident just happen?
In the first two minutes, Kuba left the field with a serious injury. Before the end of the first half, Klopp was ejected from the field with a red card for protesting against the referee. Now there is another own goal - all the bad situations that a team can encounter are actually here. I did it all in less than sixty minutes of game time...
On the Chinese Internet, fans also expressed their opinions on this matter: "Who did Dortmund offend? It is rare in the world to be so unlucky..."
"I think Dortmund reversed Bayern Munich last season and won the league championship and the Champions League. It must have overdrawn their good luck for the next ten years. Now it's time to pay off the debt..."
"This season is not over yet, but I think the most tragic team must be Dortmund!"
"It's so sad, I almost cried. Dortmund is so unlucky..."
"I think Dortmund should be more realistic this season and set their goals to qualify for next season's Champions League. As for the Champions League... don't think too much about it."
"What I'm most afraid of now is that Zhou Yi and Yan Min are also injured. I don't care how Dortmund performs. I just want them to be safe and healthy before the World Cup..."

Seeing Sven Bender shoveling the football into the goal guarded by Weidenfeller, Augsburg head coach Weinzil jumped up on the sidelines and waved his fist vigorously - God is on our side! We can definitely turn this game around!
He then issued instructions to the players, asking them to continue their high-pressure offensive and strive to score another goal in a short period of time.
Now Dortmund will definitely be affected by this own goal, just to take advantage of their illness and kill them!

Sven Bender's own goal did have a very negative impact on Dortmund.
Everyone was shocked when the head coach was sent to the stands. Nothing positive happened during the halftime break. Everyone entered the second half with the same disappointment as in the first half. As a result, only ten minutes into the second half, Sven Bender scored an own goal, and the two-goal lead suddenly turned into a one-goal lead.
If there is anything that can comfort them before this, it is the 2:0 score, which is their only advantage.
As a result, the advantage is now gone instantly.
A two-goal lead is a completely different feeling than a one-goal lead.
A two-goal lead can make people feel safe, but a one-goal lead can only make people feel a crisis.
After the mentality changed, Dortmund was suddenly unable to resist the desperate playing style of the Augsburg players.
Seeing that his team was on the offensive during this period and was just short of scoring a goal, Weinzil made a decisive substitution.
He replaced forward Bobadilla with South Korean forward Ji Dong-won.
"Ji Dongyuan came on. Coincidentally, the Korean forward will transfer from Augsburg to Dortmund after the end of this season. So this game is equivalent to him greeting the fans of his new club in advance... "Duan Xin said.
However, the way Chi Dongyuan greeted the fans of his new club was a little... heartbreaking.
He had just played for two minutes. Augsburg once again played a smooth cooperation on the right. Hahn sent another accurate cross from the right, and the football went straight to the front point.
Chi Dongyuan suddenly made a forward move and then flicked the header back!
The football flew past Weidenfeller's hands and into the back corner of the goal!
"Ahhh! Augsburg equalized -!" Marcel Leif exclaimed. "This game is so dramatic! Chi Dongyuan only played for two minutes, and this was only his second touch of the ball! Could Dortmund's luck be any worse!?"
"This ball is dangerous... Oops!" Duan Xin sighed, "No one was watching when Chi Dongyuan pushed forward... But he was able to push the ball in this way, which is indeed... such luck..."
In the blink of an eye, Dortmund's good situation disappeared... No, not only disappeared, but also fell from the clouds of heaven into the quagmire of hell!
The morale of the Dortmund players, who had been chasing two goals in a row, had almost hit rock bottom. At this time, they would naturally look to the coaching bench, waiting for Klopp's latest instructions. But when they looked over, they could only see Buvac helplessly spreading his hands, not Klopp.
At this time, everyone remembered that their head coach and backbone was sent to the stands before the end of the first half and did not even enter the locker room...
If the head coach is away, what should you do in such a situation?
Many people's hearts are sinking and they have no idea at all.
Over there, the morale of the Augsburg players who were chasing two goals was high. They didn't even celebrate the goal. After Chi Dongyuan scored, Milik rushed into the goal and fished out the football. Turn around and run towards the center circle.
It was only the 64th minute, nearly thirty minutes before the end of the game. With this momentum, they had every chance to create a miracle. After falling behind by two goals, they finally chased three goals in a row and came back to win the game.
Take three points from the hellish West End Stadium and return in triumph!
Not many teams can do such a thing!

"Too bad, too bad..." The TV broadcast was showing close-ups of Dortmund players one by one. Every Dortmund player who appeared in the camera had a look of frustration and pain. Marcel Leif also kept mumbling and repeating. This sentence.
However, when Zhou Yi appeared in the camera, the painting style suddenly changed.
The camera didn't capture his expression because he was covering his mouth while talking to Yan Min.
Although you can't see his mouth, you can still see something...positive from between his eyebrows.
"Zhou Yi seems to be giving instructions to Yan Min face to face..." Marcel Leif guessed.
He guessed correctly.
Zhou Yi was indeed giving instructions to Yan Min face to face.
He didn't have time to pose and show his sadness and pain.
"They have equalized the score now. Have you seen them running back with the ball?" Zhou Yi asked Yan Min.
Yan Min nodded.
"This shows that they are absolutely not willing to get a point on the road, they still want to win."
Yan Min curled his lips: "The ambition is not small. Beat us at our home court? How is it possible!"
"What's impossible? Football is round." Zhou Yi said, covering his mouth. "They must feel good now, and it is indeed their opportunity. But it is also our opportunity..."
Yan Min guessed Zhou Yi's thoughts: "You mean counterattack?"
Zhou Yi nodded: "Yes. If they want to create a miracle, how can they achieve it if they don't go all out to attack?"
There is no need for Zhou Yi to explain the rest of the words, Yan Min understands them all. This kind of thing has happened many times since he came to Dortmund.
He is also very good at counterattacks. He has strong speed and individual combat ability. He is indeed a good counterattacker.
"Don't stick to one position, run wherever there is free time." After Zhou Yi said this, he motioned for Yan Min to go outside the center circle.
Next, Zhou Yi turned around and shouted to his other teammates: "Hey! Hey! The game is not over yet! This is our home court!"
Many teammates were attracted by Zhou Yi's voice. They looked up at Zhou Yi, and Zhou Yi waved to them, signaling them to come up and prepare to kick off.
For some reason, when they saw Zhou Yi's calm look, their sinking hearts were suddenly held up by something and stopped falling.
By the way, isn't Zhou Yi still there?
With him here, what are you afraid of?
Many people will have such an idea involuntarily.
Although he is now tied by the opponent, Zhou Yi always has a way, doesn't he?
The TV broadcast cut to Klopp's face in the stands. The head coach, whose face had been gloomy for most of the game, finally smiled again.
"Zhou Yi is encouraging his teammates. At this time, someone really needs to stand up!" Duan Xin cheered up. "As the core of the team, Zhou Yi must show the momentum of 'who else would you rather me'!"
