After the second half began, Dortmund continued to bombard the penalty area in Brunswick.

This time, not only Zhou Yi performed well, but the performance of other players gradually became normal, which can be seen from the details of their handling of the ball.

In the first half, Dortmund players were inevitably absent-minded in handling the ball, and later they were a little restless.

In the second half, they seemed much more calm.

This was a bad signal, which made Brunswick head coach Liebecknecht frown on the sidelines.

The Brunswick players on the court also felt the pressure.

In the 60th minute, Dortmund launched an offensive. Mark was pushed to the ground by Brunswick defender Norman Toylkov when he tried to turn around. The referee blew the whistle and awarded Dortmund a free kick, and also gave Toylkov a yellow card.

This was something that had not been seen in the first half. Forty-five minutes, Brunswick players who were strictly guarding Dortmund did not take personal cards.

This yellow card is a signal because it is impossible for Brunswick players to defend Dortmund's attack without paying a little.

But in fact, the most terrifying thing is that even if they pay the price, they can't help it...

Klopp saw the pressure Brunswick was under in defense, and he decided to add some fuel to the fire.

So when Brunswick received a yellow card and felt a lot of pressure on Dortmund's gradually strengthening offensive, Dortmund replaced Kuba with Reus and continued to strengthen the offense.

In fact, Dortmund played very hard in this game. In addition to the players underestimating the enemy, there are also rotation factors.

Many mainstream players have been rotated to rest, and Dortmund is not the strongest lineup.

But even so, you should not be like this when facing a newly promoted Brunswick who is obviously weaker than you.

So in the final analysis, it is the reason why the players have not put their minds in a positive way.

After Reus came on the court, his speed and skills were able to cause trouble for Brunswick's defense.

As soon as he came on the court, he received Zhou Yi's pass and broke into the penalty area and shot.

The football ended up being slightly off the beat, but it scared the Brunswick players to a great extent.

So in the 65th minute, Brunswick head coach Liebreknecht also made a substitution adjustment.

He first made a counter substitution in the midfield, and then replaced a midfield player with a defender, obviously trying to strengthen the defense on the backline. As for midfield control... Anyway, Brunswick always shrinks in front of his penalty area to defend, and the midfield defense has long been in name only, so it doesn't matter whether it is necessary or not.

※※※

The head coaches of the two teams faced each other and counterattacked with moves. Klopp replaced Kuba with Reus. After strengthening the attack, Liberkenecht made two substitutions. Klopp's adjustments continued.

Aubameyang, who completed a hat-trick in the last game, started the game, but I don’t know if it was because of his good condition in the last game, which led to his sluggish condition in the game, or because he was a little arrogant after scoring three goals in the last game and did not pay enough attention to Brunswick. In short, his performance in this game was not very good.

Klopp decided to make a very adventurous substitution, replacing Aubameyang with young winger Jonas Hoffman.

Jonas Hoffman is a player born in 1992. He is only 21 years old this year. He used to play for the Hoffenheim youth team. He was poached by Dortmund in 2011 and scored fifteen goals in the second team of Dortmund. He performed well. He had three chances to play in the Bundesliga last season. This season, he naturally stayed in the first team.

"Swap Hoffman to replace Aubameyang, this is a gamble substitution." Marcel Leif said. "Hoffman is also a young player, and he doesn't have rich experience in the top league. Of course, Klopp will not be the same as he only played 193 seconds against Hoffenheim last season. He just went up to experience the atmosphere, but wanted him to help Dortmund break the deadlock... But Klopp actually has no better staff. On the bench, the only candidates can be used. Klopp is a defensive midfielder, obviously not suitable for the current situation..."

No one has any hope for this young man.

But the turning point of things happened to this young man.

In the 75th minute, Zhou Yi made a long pass in the backcourt, and the football passed the crowd in the midfield and flew directly to Hoffman on the side.

Zhou Yi's long pass was very comfortable. Although it was very far away and had a great strength, Hoffmann did not struggle to stop. He easily removed the football and then dribbled the ball into Brunswick's penalty area.

At this time, he was basically alone!

Facing the attacking Brunswick goalkeeper Davari, Hornas calmly pushed the ball into the far corner. The football rolled past Davari's feet and then hit the net!

"The ball is in! The ball is in! The ball is in! In the 75th minute, Dortmund finally broke the deadlock!"

Everyone's emotions burst out at this time at the West** Stadium, which was a little quiet before.

Although they never thought that their team would be tied by the promoted team at home before the game, as the game progressed, this concern came to the hearts of many Dortmund fans, like a sword of Damocles hanging over their heads, and they didn't know when it would fall.

Now, Hoffman's goal has made the sword disappear - they firmly believe that with this lead, Dortmund will never be able to equalize the score by his opponent at home.

Hoffman was also very excited when scoring the goal. In the second half, the Brunswick goal happened to be below the South stand. He ran to the South stand, celebrating the goal with the fans there through the billboard and barbed wire wall.

"...This is Jonas Hoffman's first Bundesliga goal in his career, congratulations! Dortmund continues to implement his youthful policy in the new season. Will Hoffman become the next Gotze-like figure?"

As a German commentator, Marcel Leif naturally cares about Hoffman's future.

But the focus of Chinese commentator Duan Xin is different from his German counterparts.

He was considering Yan Min. As a Chinese player, Zhou Yi no longer had to worry about his status. In front of Dortmund, Zhou Yi is the absolute core of the unshakable. As a player who has just joined Dortmund, Yan Min faces more competition than Zhou Yi and is more severe.

In the first round of the league, Aubameyang's hat trick made Chinese media and fans very nervous. Although the two players have different positions, their characteristics are very similar - they are both fast wing players - so Aubameyang is naturally regarded as Yan Min's competitor.

Aubameyang's performance in this game was average, but before the Chinese fans could breathe a sigh of relief, another Jonas Hoffman appeared... His goal also gave him the upper hand in the competition with Yan Min.

Will Hoffman's goal affect Yan Min's prospects in Dortmund?

At least at present, everyone's concerns make sense. After Hoffman scored, his appearance pick at Dortmund must be higher than Yan Min.

"Hoffman scored a goal and Dortmund took the lead. But I believe that for many Chinese fans, this may not be good news, because our Yan Min needs another strong competitor..."

※※※

Yan Min did not go to watch the game live in this game. He chose to watch live TV at home because he could practice listening in German at the same time.

He also saw Hoffman's goal, and he also believed Hoffman would be his competitor.

But unlike other people's worries, Yan Min felt that this was no big deal. He had come to Dortmund, how could it be possible to have no competition? The competition must be, and it was only more intense than when he was in China.

Yan Min was mentally prepared for this.

Yan Min's idea of ​​competition is also different from that of ordinary people.

Ordinary people think that the more competitors there are, the more intense the competition is and the more troublesome it is.

But Yan Min doesn't think so. If his goal is to play games, then as long as he is the one who performs the best in this position, isn't it enough? No matter whether the competitors are ten or one, as long as he is the one who performs the best, who else can I do it?

So Yan Min didn't think Hoffman's appearance would make his situation worse in Dortmund.

It is always better to go together than to save everyone time.

So when domestic commentators and online were worried about Yan Min, Yan Min himself did not take this seriously.
