Chapter 110 Opening half a minute

No matter what purpose Zhou Yi said that, he really annoyed the supporters of Real Madrid. The host of a Madrid TV station talked about Zhou Yi's words on the show, thinking that Zhou Yi was simply too rude. The show criticized Zhou Yi very fiercely.

However, Zhou Yi could not see the Spanish TV program, so he could not hear the criticism of his opponent. This kind of criticism is actually meaningless except to satisfy the critics.

So what makes sense?

Of course, it is the most meaningful to defeat Dortmund, where Zhou Yi is located in the next game and use practical actions to break superstitions and spells.

When Real Madrid players arrived in Dortmund, media interviewed them at the airport, wanting them to express their views on Zhou Yi's words, or simply their views on Zhou Yi.

Most Real Madrid players refused to answer these questions. They chose to avoid talking, but they could still feel their emotions, which was definitely very unhappy.

Ramos is the only Real Madrid player who answered this question positively in an interview. He said: "Everyone has his own opinions, but we will respect every opponent. Real Madrid has only one goal for every game, and that is victory."

A brief translation is, "Zhou Yi, you don't respect us enough, and we will definitely use victory to slap you in the face!"

Where is the Zhouyi?

I didn't accept interviews before the game. Maybe I was afraid that my words would be interpreted casually by the media, or maybe I felt that my goal of angering my opponent had been achieved.

In short, he remained silent before the game, disappointing reporters who wanted to provoke trouble on both sides and were afraid that the world would remain unrest.

Before the game, in addition to promoting the concept of "curse", the German media also believed that this was a Dortmund revenge game.

Because two seasons ago, in the 2010-2011 season, Dortmund returned to his first season in the Champions League. They reached the quarterfinals in one go, but met Real Madrid led by Mourinho in the quarterfinals. In the end, they lost 1:4 at the Bernabeu in the first leg, basically losing hope of promotion. That season, Dortmund's Champions League path ended in the quarterfinals.

Of course, this account has to be recovered from Real Madrid.

However, Dortmund did not think so when interviewed, or they could not promote any topics like revenge.

"This is just an ordinary group match, not a knockout match," Klopp said.

The implication is that even if Dortmund wins Real Madrid, it may not necessarily make Real Madrid unable to get out of the line. Such a game is not considered a qualified revenge.

In fact, putting aside the "curse" of Real Madrid's outrage in Germany, Real Madrid has the advantage in this game. No matter what aspects it is, this is true.

In terms of the number of stars and the overall strength of the team, Real Madrid is better than Dortmund. Using a very vulgar but intuitive concept to judge the strength of the two teams, that is, the value. The entire team of Real Madrid is much higher than Dortmund.

In addition, from the recent game, Real Madrid has prepared more fully than Dortmund. Both teams were at home in the last game, but Dortmund played a difficult Ruhr derby, and Schalke 04 forced Dortmund to a heavy blow. What about Real Madrid? The game against Celta 2-0 at home can be said to be ineffective. Mourinho did not even send all the main players. During the game, he replaced the main players in advance to prepare for this game.

Real Madrid is away, but they only have this disadvantage, but they have more advantages.

While every Real Madrid fan is worried about the so-called curse, he will also be full of expectations for this team in his heart - perhaps the day to break the curse is today?

At 2:45 am on October 25, 2012, Beijing time, the UEFA Champions League group stage of Dortmund's home match against Real Madrid officially began.

With the whistle of referee Kaushoi, Benzema kicked the football to Cristiano Ronaldo, and the Portuguese turned around and kicked the football back to Ozil.

The shouts of shouts over the West** field resounded through the sky.

Ozil and Khdira are very familiar with the atmosphere of this stadium, two German players in Real Madrid, because they have both played in Bundesliga teams and come here at least once a year.

After receiving the ball, Ozil did not pass the ball immediately, but waited for a while and then observed the situation. He had to wait for his teammates to pull the formation apart before he could have the angle and space for passing the ball.

But this time, he just raised his head to observe and saw that Mark Wagner was already rushing towards him and was close to him!

This scared him.

Mark Wagner started in this game by replacing Gotze, who was injured in the previous league. Gotze was found to have to rest for two weeks after the game, so his position was naturally replaced by Mark. Mark also used the bracelet score in the last game to prove that his condition and health are fine.

Ozil really didn't expect Mark to pounce so hard, so he quickly turned around and passed the football back to Khedira, who was not far behind him.

But Khedira's situation is not much better than him. As soon as the football fell to Khedira's feet, Lewandowski had already leaned on it and left him no room to deal with the ball!

When Hedira faced such a situation, she naturally did not dare to let the football stay at his feet. He was the midfielder. If the ball was thrown away under his feet, the opponent might face the back line directly, which was very dangerous!

So he passed the football horizontally to his midfielder Alonso.

Alonso stopped the ball a little bigger, and a yellow figure rushed up like lightning and stabbed his ball with one kick!

At that moment, Alonso didn't even see who it was, so football disappeared.

Fortunately, the ball that was poked out rolled a little far and fell directly to the feet of Real Madrid defender Ramos behind.

"Royce! Oh! What a pity!" Marcel Leif exclaimed. When Reus stabbed the football from Alonso just now, he thought it would be a Dortmund attack, but he didn't expect the football to be obtained by Ramos...

Ramos didn't dare to delay and kicked the football into the frontcourt with a big foot. It would be better not to let the football stay in his half. Even if he wanted to lose the ball, it would be better to lose the ball in the frontcourt than to lose the ball in front of his goal.

"At the beginning of the game, Dortmund showed his aggressive momentum, after all, this is their home court, so of course they have to declare the owner's presence to the 'guests'." The commentator of Spanish TV said. "Using active pressing in the frontcourt can indeed cause some trouble for Real Madrid, but this style of play is also quite physically exhausting. Dortmund started to snatch this way from the first minute of the game. How long can their physical fitness be supported? What should I do when I lose my strength in the second half? Will it collapse directly?"

The Spanish commentator naturally tends toward Real Madrid. Although this time it is dangerous in front of Real Madrid's penalty area, he can still see factors that are beneficial to Real Madrid.

But Real Madrid coach Mourinho on the sidelines is not as relaxed and confident as the commentator. When the TV camera swept over him, he will see him frowning, standing on the sidelines, waving his arms and shouting.

If you can still clearly see what he shouted in the noisy West** stadium, you will find that he is asking Real Madrid players to speed up the pass and catch the ball, pour the ball up, and do not control the ball too much in the backcourt.

As an experienced and highly qualified head coach, it is impossible for him to see how Klopp arranged it, nor is it impossible for him to see the intention behind this arrangement.

Obviously, Dortmund hopes to use high-pressures at home to disrupt Real Madrid's rhythm and put Real Madrid in a panic situation.

Mourinho frowned, which means that Klopp's arrangement was effective. Any team or player is afraid of high-level pressing, and those close-fitting entanglements and aggressive steals.

Even people like Zhou Yi are somewhat embarrassed when they meet Yang Muge.

Real Madrid players are also afraid, even more afraid.

Klopp must have carefully studied the strategy formulated by Real Madrid. Of course, he could not have known about the problem of this tactic, which is that he has high physical fitness requirements. But since he still chose to fight like this, there must be his reason.

Maybe he thinks his team can establish a winning position before the physical energy is exhausted, maybe he thinks that the physical fitness of the Dortmund players is completely enough to support the entire game.

In any case, even if this style of play will cause trouble to Dortmund, it will only occur after the physical fitness of Dortmund players is in trouble, and it is in the second half of the game. Now, in the first half of the game, Real Madrid is in trouble...

Ramos' big foot kicked by Cristiano Ronaldo, and the Portuguese jumped high, fully demonstrating his excellent bounce, air stagnation and heading ability, and pushed the football to his teammate Benzema.

But Benzema just received the ball, and Sven Bend and Kyle forced him up.

Under the attack of the two of them, Benzema's ball was quickly lost. This time the football did not fall to the feet of a Real Madrid player with good luck, but was firmly controlled by Kyle, and then he passed the football to Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi turned around and passed the football forward.

Although Real Madrid kicked off, Dortmund took the ball back in just half a minute.

What they show in their home venue is not only momentum, but also excellent tactics and execution capabilities.

On the other hand, Real Madrid seemed a little panicked from the start of kickoff, which eventually led to the loss of possession.
