Chapter 54 Take Advantage

Although Zhou Yi's volley did not score, it played a role in boosting morale.

This is a response from Dortmund, or Zhou Yi, when Chelsea just led the way - if you think you have the advantage if you lead one goal, then that would be wrong!

Even fools can see this ball. If Zhou Yi could hit the ball within the range of the door frame, then even Sun Pan would not be able to save the ball, so he would definitely make an in!

He didn't save the ball just now, not because the football missed, but because he was slow.

If Zhou Yi shoots the same ball within the range of the goal frame, Sun Pan still can't save it.

So who says that Chelsea will be invincible as long as they lead with one goal?

Although Sun Pan is the mobile Great Wall, it cannot be crossed?

As long as you have the will and want to do it, you will always succeed.

This naturally sets a good example for other Dortmund players, and to some extent it can even be regarded as "breaking superstitions."

So in the following game, the Dortmund players did not perform as some people expected, and were in chaos because of conceding the ball early.

Instead, the attack was so vivid that it was even more threatening in the attack...

At the eleventh minute, Zhou Yi took the ball near the middle circle. He didn't even raise his head, and turned around and sent a diagonal pass to the left.

When the football rolled over, Aubameyang caught up with the football with his speed, and then led the penalty area to Chelsea.

Then he made a cross and Mark headed the ball in the middle, and was pushed high under Ruiz's close-fitting interference.

In the 16th minute, Zhou Yi brought a long shot from the top of the free throw outside the penalty area. It was not a powerful long shot, but a clearly arc-shaped shot. The football drew an arc, bypassing the Chelsea defender in the penalty area, and bypassing the fingertips of goalkeeper Sun Pan. Of course, because the arc was too large, he also bypassed the right post, missed the goal, and then rubbed to the side net!

Although he didn't score a goal, this kick scared the Chelsea fans very much. The scene of the football hitting the side net and lifting the ball net really looked like a football entered...

Zhou Yi himself was also very sorry, holding his head with both hands.

Sun Pan got up from the ground and cursed: "Damn! It's really a fucking kick when he saw me!"

Although he said this, Sun Pan knew that his heart was beating a little fast... It was always dangerous to let the other party continue to bombard him like this.

In the 22nd minute, Mark got the ball back in the penalty area, and Reus followed up with a long shot outside the penalty area. This was a long shot with a strong and tricky angle.

But Sun Pan bravely rushed out of the football.

"Sun Pan! It's like a man is a barrier, and ten thousand men cannot open up!" He Ping, the commentator of "Poet", couldn't help but recite two lines of poetry.

These are two lines from "The Road to Shu" by the Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai. For Dortmund, the goal guarded by Sun Pan is indeed as difficult as the Road to Shu in the past.

Marcel Lef reminded Dortmund: "Although Chelsea has not played very conservatively yet, I believe that with the passage of game time and when there is little time left in the second half, if the score has not been rewritten, Mourinho will definitely not mind setting up a bus in front of the goal. At that time, coupled with Sun Pan's outstanding personal ability, it will be difficult for Dortmund to score...

Dortmund is also very clear that they have enough knowledge of Mourinho and Sun Pan - they fought against the two in the Champions League last season.

So Dortmund also strengthened its offensive, hoping to equalize the score as soon as possible and bring the game back to the same starting line.

In the 26th minute, Zhou Yi sent an overhead pass outside the penalty area. Reus successfully counterattacked and received Zhou Yi's pass in the penalty area. Then he turned around and shot. This time he played too straight and was directly held in his arms by Sun Pan.

In the 29th minute, Aubameyang used his speed to dribble the ball on the left and suddenly cut inside, then shot a long shot from the front of the penalty area, but it missed the goal...

Chelsea took full advantage of Dortmund's opportunity to strengthen its offensive and attack Dortmund's counterattack, which is exactly the offensive routine that Mourinho is good at.

In the 31st minute, Scherle used his speed to throw away Schmelzer from the side and made a cross from the bottom. Torres received the ball in the middle and turned around and shot. The football flew out of the baseline against the crossbar.

In the 34th minute, Chelsea cut off Aubameyang's pass to Zhou Yi in the backcourt, and then launched a counterattack. Oscar dribbled the ball and killed the ball at high speed and passed the ball directly to Torres who was inserted on the right.

Torres, who scored the goal, performed very actively in this game and always appeared at the position to qualify.

After receiving the ball, Torres shot from the far corner at the corner of the penalty area, and the football went out of the baseline...

Facing Chelsea's counterattack, Dortmund did not show any hesitation. They did not shrink and stabilize the defense because Chelsea's counterattack was sharp. The solution given by Zhou Yi on the court was to continue the offense and use a more fierce attack to suppress Chelsea's counterattack. He led Dortmund to launch wave after wave of offensives towards Chelsea's goal.

In the 38th minute, Reus passed the football to Zhou Yi. After Zhou Yi received the ball in the middle, he made a move to shoot a long shot. Ruiz tricked him and jumped up and turned around, intending to use his body to block Zhou Yi's long shot.

As a result, Zhou Yi was just a fake move. After his right foot landed, he did not shoot, but sent a straight pass and passed the football into the penalty area! Mark inserted it smartly and received the football shot!

Sun Pan made a save, but he did not play a role because the football was slumped to the ground by another central defender Gary Cahill, blocking the bottom line with his legs...

"It's so dangerous! Dortmund's offensive has been very fierce during this period! They even formed a trend of besieging Chelsea's goal..." The British commentator said with some fear. "Before the game, everyone analyzed that Dortmund's condition should not be very good. This has something to do with their core Zhou Yi running back and forth to receive the prize... But from the actual game, Dortmund doesn't feel that they are in bad shape... As for Zhou Yi? He is still the core of Dortmund, the engine and catalyst of Dortmund's offensive... Chelsea imposed some restrictions on him, but those restrictive measures did not achieve the expected effect. He ran actively on the court, and he was seen almost every corner of the midfield and frontcourt. His ubiquity allows Dortmund to launch an attack anywhere on the court, which makes it difficult for Chelsea to defend..."

The British commentator came to the point.

Dortmund in this game is indeed not as tired and in poor condition as people think. On the contrary, they performed very aggressively. Two minutes into the game, they created a threatening shot. Until now, both the number of shots and the number of shots within the goal frame are more Dortmund. Not to mention the possession rate, Dortmund has an absolute advantage.

This is a performance when Dortmund conceded a goal...

There was not much time left in the first half, and everyone was surprised to find that Dortmund was not adapted at all. As the core of Dortmund, Zhou Yi was operating normally without any fatigue. He did not adapt to the venue, and he ran freely on this court, and handled the ball like he was at West** Stadium, just as if he had secretly adapted to the venue in the middle of the night yesterday...

Of course these people wouldn't know that the virtual world in Zhou Yi's mind can perfectly simulate the real world, and of course it also includes the turf condition of a court in the real world.

Unless someone changes the stadium turf overnight the night before the game, but who would be so bored? Not everyone is Tony Donne…

Mourinho stood on the sidelines and frowned. If he only looked at his expression, he would definitely think that Chelsea is behind now, but in fact Chelsea is the side leading by one goal. But Mourinho will not be relaxed because of the lead.

He was a little confused about Zhou Yi. How could he show such a performance even though he had been flying thousands of kilometers back and forth without sleeping well?

His assistant, friend, Chelsea's physical coach Rui Faria saw Mourinho standing on the sidelines motionless, like a statue. Faria, who knew him, knew that Mourinho must have been in trouble, so he walked to him.

Although he didn't speak or move, Mourinho knew that there was one more person around him and who was coming.

"Ruy, I think we misjudged Zhou Yi." Mourinho said with a frown, "It's obvious that there was no sign of fatigue on him. We were deceived by Klopp. He deliberately released some wrong information to us, such as Zhou Yi going to attend the award ceremony and had a bad rest..."

Faria said: "I think this may not be Klopp's idea. I was observing Klopp just now and found that he was a little surprised by the situation. Perhaps he didn't expect that his team would play better and better when he was behind."

Upon hearing this, Mourinho turned his head and glanced at Dortmund's coaching seat with a strange look. He saw Klopp sitting on the coaching seat covering his mouth and saying something to his assistant Buvac.

"That's really interesting..." Mourinho snorted.

※※※

"This is really interesting." Klopp sighed at his assistant coach Buvac, covering his mouth.

"It's really interesting. Zhou Yi's state is beyond our imagination, and he can also lead the whole team to perform well..." Buvac also nodded and exclaimed.

But Buvac obviously misunderstood.

So Klopp shook his head: "No, I'm not saying that this is very interesting. I never doubt Zhou Yi's ability. I'm not surprised that Zhou Yi has such a state adjustment ability. What makes me interesting is the offensive idea that Zhou Yi chose in this game... Facing Chelsea, he played more neatly, whether it's handling the ball himself or driving the rhythm... Have you noticed it? He has more forward passes in this game, but not many crosses or back passes."

When Buvac heard Klopp say this, he thought about it carefully and found that it was true. Dortmund's so many shots and so many attacks in the first half were related to Zhou Yi's continuous transmission of shells. At the front of the Chelsea penalty area, he rarely leads his teammates to pass back and forth, looking for opportunities, and will use simple and direct methods to threaten Chelsea's goal, either passing the football to his teammates to form a shot, or just kick it himself.

"During the intermission, I plan to ask Zhou Yi to talk about why he did this," Klopp said.

"I'm curious, too." Buvaci smiled.

He didn't seem surprised or surprised by Klopp's approach.
