Calderon was crowded with people, and everyone was waiting for the game to start. In the player channel, Dortmund's players lined up in the channel to wait for the game.

Then, Atletico Madrid players walked out from behind. Sun Pan was chatting with his teammates when he saw Zhou Yi standing in front.

So he quietly walked behind Zhou Yi, hoping to give Zhou Yi a sudden attack.

As a result, his hand had just been raised, and Zhou Yi looked back at him as if he had an eye in his head and said, "Oh, Panpan, what do you want to do?"

Sun Pan was very embarrassed, and his hands were unable to be lifted, so he could only temporarily change to scratching his head.

"Damn, you have eyes on your head?"

"I don't have eyes on my head, but my ears are not deaf. I suggest you take off your shoes next time before sneaking me." Zhou Yi pointed to Sun Pan's sneakers. When walking, the sneakers' shoes will make a clattering sound when nailed to the hard ground, which is very obvious.

Sun Pan rolled his eyes - he forgot about this.

"I told my teammates all your characteristics, and they will 'take care of' you at that time, Zhou Yi." Sun Pan, who was unwilling to admit defeat, said to Zhou Yi, and he also pointed to his teammates.

When Zhou Yi followed Sun Pan's gaze, he saw that the players at Atletico Madrid were very unkind.

So he also turned around and smiled at Sun Pan and said, "What a coincidence, Pan Pan, I also told them all about your save characteristics."

Zhou Yi pointed to his teammates.

"It's really boring to talk like this. Let's meet on the court." Sun Pan felt that he couldn't beat Zhou Yi even if he talked.

"Well, don't bet if you can do it." Zhou Yi nodded in agreement.

The two of them said goodbye.

Sun Pan returned to his team. As a goalkeeper, he stood behind Captain Gabi and waited for the appearance.

On the radio of the stadium outside, DJ was leading the fans on the scene to chant the names of Atletico Madrid players.

"Sun——"

DJ shouted in a long voice.

"Look!!!" The deafening shouts of Atletico Madrid fans rang over Calderon.

Zhou Yi, who was in the player channel, heard the thunder and couldn't help but smile.

It took Sun Pan two years to completely conquer the stadium, but unfortunately he has not had much time in this stadium. After the season is over, if nothing unexpected happens, Chelsea will definitely recall Sun Pan. Of course, Atletico Madrid wants to keep Sun Pan, but they may have to pay a considerable price, and Simeone may not be willing to pay this price.

I wonder if Sun Pan is ready to go back to Chelsea...

When the theme song of the Champions League sounded, players from both sides walked out of the player channel and entered the stadium under the leadership of the referee group.

"They are here!" commentator He Ping shouted excitedly, raising his voice.

This is the "China derby" that everyone has been looking forward to for a long time.

The TV broadcaster seemed to be very clear about the gimmick of this game. When the players on both sides appeared, Zhou Yi and Sun Pan were given a close-up shot respectively, which obviously had more time than others, highlighting their important position.

But in fact, even if it is not a Chinese derby, Zhou Yi and Sun Pan deserve to be taken seriously by close-ups.

Because they are all indispensable core figures in their respective teams.

So perhaps these two close-up shots given by European broadcasters do not mean to take care of Chinese audiences?

※※※

After all the rituals were over, the players on both sides returned to their respective positions and waited for the kickoff.

When picking the side, Dortmund lost the right to pick the side, so they now have the right to kick off.

In fact, Dortmund attaches more importance to the kick-off. Whoever can drive first can control the football on his own side and start the attack first.

With the referee's whistle, the game began!

Dortmund quickly kicked the football out, but did not rush forward. After Zhou Yi received the ball from Lewandowski, he did not pass the football forward, but turned around and passed the football to the central defender Subotic behind him.

Then, the football was overturned in the second half of Dortmund, and even passed to goalkeeper Weidenfeller for a while.

It was not until Atletico Madrid players pushed forward and snatched them that Dortmund passed the football forward. But if the opportunity to continue to attack forward was not very good, they would continue to pass the football backward or cross over, in short, they would not pass the ball forward easily.

When should I pass the ball forward and when should I not pass the ball forward?

This is Zhou Yi’s task.

Of course, Atletico Madrid has a very strict defense against Zhou Yi. There is someone around Zhou Yi at any time, but there is no fixed candidate. Whoever is close to him will be whoever is close to him.

Doing this can not only ensure the strength of close-up guarding against Zhou Yi, but also ensure the integrity of his defense line, avoiding being confused by Zhou Yi.

But Zhou Yi also has a way to deal with it. Atletico Madrid sticks it tightly, so he has almost no room for turning, so he won't turn it around.

He passed the football directly.

Although most of them are cross-passing or even back-passing, Zhou Yi doesn't care.

Dortmund doesn't care.

Dortmund's strategy in this game is to slowly deal with Atletico Madrid.

If there is no good offensive opportunity, it doesn’t matter if you don’t pass the ball forward. Zhou Yi has the final say. Everyone listens to Zhou Yi and no one will question it.

After dealing with this for a long time, it was almost four minutes before Dortmund finally had his first shot.

At that time, after a continuous cross pass, Zhou Yi suddenly pushed the ball straight out and gave it to Lewandowski. Lewandowski took the ball and shot directly. Sun Pan made a save, but he didn't touch the ball, so the ball flew directly out of the crossbar.

Although he did not score, it caused a breath of breath in the stands of Calderon Stadium. It was obvious that Atletico Madrid fans were shocked.

This is why Dortmund has been passing the ball continuously before, and Dortmund players are not in a hurry. They are all used to letting Zhou Yi distribute the ball. If Zhou Yi does not pass the ball forward, it will definitely be a bad opportunity, but as long as he passes the ball forward, it will definitely cause a threat.

That's what this ball is.

So Dortmund actually played the tactic of killing the master in this game, but was trying to compete with Atletico Madrid for efficiency.

Dortmund, who played away, knew that there would not be too many offensive opportunities in this game, so instead of squandering these opportunities at will, it would be better to refine these opportunities, take the initiative to give up some not-so-good opportunities, and then use the remaining better opportunities to score goals.

Lewandowski's shot failed to score, which relieved Atletico Madrid fans in the stands.

What made Atletico Madrid players on the court breathe a sigh of relief was that possession of the ball finally returned to Atletico Madrid, and they could attack Dortmund's goal without being walked by the football like before.

The feeling before really made Atletico Madrid players very upset.

They are used to playing football with "I am the main one", but when they compete with Dortmund, they are led by Dortmund everywhere, which makes it so uncomfortable.

The task of Atletico Madrid in this game is very simple, that is, to win Dortmund at home, and to ensure that the goal is not conceded.

After Sun Pan set the football down, he stepped back and helped the run, and then delivered the football accurately to Diego Costa with a big foot, and Costa ferried the football to Adrian who was inserted on the side. Atletico Madrid's offense moved forward like a tide.

When Adrian passed the football back to the middle, Falcao completed the shot.

However, this shot did not pose any threat to Dortmund. He flew high above the crossbar, and the tall Weidenfeller did not make any moves - because there was no need...

Although there was no goal or any threat, the Atletico Madrid fans in the stands of the Calderon Stadium were still excited and kept cheering.

※※※

After the ball possession was transferred to Dortmund, the game returned to a slow pace.

Zhou Yi led the whole team to keep falling down. If Atletico Madrid does not press, the Dortmund player who took the ball will let the football stay under his feet for a while until the opponent presses it.

After falling like this for a while, Dortmund completed another attack. It was Lewandowski, and this time his shot hit the goal frame.

However, Lewandowski's high-quality shot became a foil for Sun Pan.
Chapter completed!
