Lewandowski's goal gave Dortmund the advantage in the next game. They bombarded Hoffenheim's goal, but their luck was a little bad and they didn't score.

But even so, the 1:0 score is enough to win Dortmund.

Hoffenheim looked very embarrassed under the fierce attack of Dortmund.

In the 26th and 30th minutes, their midfielder Rudy and defender Westgard received yellow cards one after another.

He can only rely on fouls to block Dortmund's offensive.

The only thing worth comforting is that although they paid the price of two yellow cards, they did not concede the ball again.

At the end of the first half, the score was still 1:0.

When walking off the stadium, the Dortmund players were talking and laughing, and they looked very relaxed.

But when the close-up shot was given to Zhou Yi's face, his style was a little different from his teammates around him. He lowered his head and walked in a hurry. You could not see any relaxed look on his face.

"...Zhou Yi seems not very satisfied with the result in the first half." Duan Xin said. "But it's normal. He created many opportunities for his teammates in the first half, but his teammates didn't catch it. Otherwise, how could the score be 1:0? He must be a little worried about this score..."

Duan Xin guessed correctly.

In the locker room, every Dortmund player came in and seemed very relaxed and happy, and they were talking loudly and laughing, already discussing the Champions League final.

Klopp was the last one to come in. He just came in and the door was not closed. When he saw Zhou Yi suddenly stand up and walked to the middle of the locker room.

Klopp, who originally wanted to speak, shut up.

"Hey! Hey! Guys!" Zhou Yi slapped and said loudly.

When everyone saw that Zhou Yi was standing in the middle and had something to say, they gradually calmed down and looked at Zhou Yi.

"I don't want to disturb everyone's interest, but I think there are some things that I have to say that you think we will win?" Zhou Yi did not talk nonsense, but asked straight to the point.

His words made the locker room silent, and no one answered his question.

"In the last game, we scored five minutes in the first game, but we didn't win until the last moment. In the last game, we scored first, but what's the result? We only defeated Bayern Munich in the countdown stage... I want to say that this has happened twice in a row, and we can't let the third happen again, right?" Zhou Yi looked around his teammates and asked.

Everyone understands what Zhou Yi means.

Mark nodded: "Yes, we can't do this anymore!"

"A score of 1:0 is not safe, especially for a team fighting for survival." Zhou Yi continued. "If we can't take the lead quickly in the second half, we will give Hoffenheim more hope and make them think they can beat us. It is our responsibility to give them such fantasies."

Before today, Zhou Yi had simulated this game many times in the virtual world, and almost no game was easy. It seems that Hoffenheim is far less powerful than Dortmund, but when they want to fight for survival, they will burst out huge energy. This energy makes Dortmund unable to resist. In those virtual games, Dortmund lost a lot.

It was the result of these virtual games that made Zhou Yi always remain vigilant. He kept creating opportunities for his teammates in the first half, hoping that his teammates could determine more leads in the first half and completely defeat Hoffenheim's fighting spirit.

But the actual result was not as he wished. His teammates were too optimistic, and they squandered the opportunity but didn't know it.

When he walked off the court at the end of the first half, Zhou Yi kept frowning and thinking about this issue. He didn't know what the head coach would do, but he wanted to say something to his teammates.

He wants to remind them that Hoffenheim is definitely not a slaughtered fish.

"Playing." Applause rang out in the locker room, which was very sudden.

Everyone turned their heads and looked at the place where the sound came out, and they saw Klopp applauding.

"Zhou Yi said it well," Klopp said. "Actually, I want to say these words to you, but now I don't need them. I just hope you remember one thing, don't make every game so scared. My old guy's heart is almost unbearable."

Klopp finally made a joke, but no one laughed.

In Hoffenheim's locker room, Gisdor was cheering his players: "...They must think they have won now and the championship has been obtained! I can even hear the cheers coming from their locker room! Maybe they have turned on the champagne for celebration in advance! Look at their expressions at the end of the first half! They thought we were finished, so we would give them a big surprise! It's just a ball gap! When we lose to the death, they will definitely be at a loss if they are not prepared! This is our opportunity, for your fans, for yourself, fight to the end!"

Gistor used his tone and body language to mobilize the emotions of the players. Everyone was excited and vowed to fight Dortmund to the death in the second half to prevent Dortmund from reaching the top, and also allowed them to successfully stay in the League One.

Gistor looked at the players who were yelling and rushing out of the locker room and said with satisfaction to his assistant coach: "I saw a bunch of lions."

※※※

Gistor not only used words to motivate his players, but also made personnel adjustments.

Before the second half began, the two Hoffenheim players stood side by side on the sidelines, waiting to play.

He replaced Rudy with Saulkar, who was also a midfielder, with a yellow card in the first half, and replaced midfielder Oaks with forward Skiplock.

There was no personnel adjustment on Dortmund.

At the beginning of the second half, Dortmund fans were quite relaxed, although they only led by one goal. However, news from the Prussian Park Stadium during the break was that Bayern Munich was behind Borussia Mönchengladbach 2:3 away.

So according to the current results, Dortmund is more than a quarter ahead of Bayern Munich, and its advantage is quite obvious.

However, not long after the second half began, Hoffenheim used a series of fierce offensives to make Dortmund fans feel the pressure.

First, Hoffenheim's forward Firmino was knocked down by Sven Bend when he forced a breakthrough in the frontcourt. The referee blew a whistle and sentenced Sven Bend to a foul, and then gave Hoffenheim a free kick.

This free kick is 33 meters away from the goal, centered and has a very good position.

Sarihovic stood in front of the football. The Bosnia and Herzegovina free kick master made people feel a little nervous. His free kick was very accurate. When Hoffenheim was just promoted to the first level, Ibisevic's explosion was the main reason why the team was able to win the winter championship, but Sarihovic's free kick cannot be ignored.

"Sarihovic set up the ball...success...good ball!"

Amid the commentator's exclamation, the football bypassed the human wall and flew towards Dortmund's goal. The Dortmund player in the human wall turned his head and looked at the football with a little horror in his eyes.

At this critical moment, Weidenfeller's big hand arrived. He touched the football with his fingertips, and then the football fell out of the goal post!

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhh! Weidenfeller! He made another wonderful save!!" Marcel Lef shouted. "This was an incredible save!"

After Weidenfell landed, he turned over the turf, stood up again, slapped hard and shouted: "Be careful! Don't give them such a chance!"

Although he saved this time beautifully, he was actually scared to death. And if he could still perform such a bravely next time with such a ball, he was not sure...

So the best way is to not give them any hope as Zhou Yi said!

This free kick from Sarihovic did scare the other Dortmund players to death. Although they are still ahead, if the ball is scored and the score is a draw, then what kind of emotions will be generated in their hearts. That kind of emotions will definitely affect them.

Klopp waved his arms on the sidelines and shouted: "Remember! Don't give them any chance!!"

※※※

After the game started again, Dortmund controlled the football and they were not in a hurry to attack. Under Zhou Yi's leadership, everyone began to fall in the backcourt.

Anyway, they are leading 1:0 now, so there is no need for them to worry.

But Hoffenheim definitely cannot let Dortmund fall like this, because they cannot keep the score until the end of the game. They must come up and grab it.

Once they come up and grab it, the gap behind them can be used by Dortmund.

This is Dortmund's idea for the second half.

When Hoffenheim was in full force, Dortmund did not choose to confront them head-on, but avoided his edge and defeated his strength with softness.
Chapter completed!
