King of the Zone

Before the 90s, no one in world football had achieved a free kick hat-trick. This hat-trick method was once considered a miracle that no one could accomplish until 1994.

In April 1994, Giuseppe Signori scored a hat-trick of free kicks against Atalanta when he was playing for Lazio in Serie A, becoming the first person in the history of world football to score a hat-trick of free kicks in an official professional game.

Kostas Franzesquez and Ray McKinnon then scored hat-tricks of free-kicks in the Greek and Scottish top-flight games respectively in 1997.

The last one is Mikhailovich, known as the "King of Free Kicks". On December 1998, 12, in Lazio's home game against Sampdoria, he helped Lazio use free kicks to penetrate Sampdoria's goal three times and performed a free kick hat-trick.

In the short 90 years of the 4s, there were 4 free kick hat tricks. Everyone thought that as the study of free kick technology became more and more scientific, there would be more and more free kick hat tricks.

However, it turns out that everyone thought too much. Mikhailovich's free kick hat-trick became the last free kick hat-trick in world football before Cheng Hai. It has been 14 years and no one has been able to replicate it.

Because Mihajlovich himself is a master of free kicks, and that game was a top Serie A event, and it was the closest game to the present, so in the memory of most people, it seems that only Uncle Miha has performed a free kick hat-trick in football history.

In fact, before today, 4 people had performed a free kick hat-trick, but the reputation of the others was far less than that of Mikhailovich.

But no matter how you look at it, being able to stage a free kick hat-trick in a single game is an unparalleled record.

Today, Cheng Hai pushed this record to a climax.

First of all, this is the first time that Mihajlovic has scored a free kick hat-trick here after 14 years.

Secondly, this is the UEFA Champions League, and it is also the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League. It has much higher gold content than Serie A, as well as the Greek and Scottish leagues.

Finally, the opponent of the game is the best club of the 20th century, the Galacticos Real Madrid, and the goalkeeper is Casillas, the world's top goalkeeper.

In such an event, on such an occasion, and facing such an opponent, he staged a hat-trick of free kicks, which naturally detonated the global media after the game.

"Champions League semi-final Dortmund 3-0 Real Madrid, Cheng Hai's free kick hat-trick detonated Westfalenstadion! "

In the first round of the UEFA Champions League semi-final Dortmund VS Real Madrid, Cheng Hai performed a free kick hat-trick to tie Mikhailovich's record! "

"Cheng Hai's free kick hat-trick becomes No. 1 in the history of the UEFA Champions League!" "

"San Cassie was humiliated by Cheng Hai with free kicks three times in one game! "

"Hat-trick of free kicks in a single game, Cheng Haicheng's No.1 free kick among active players! "

Many fans have never seen a free kick hat-trick in their entire lives, and some have never even heard of it, so it naturally attracted countless fans to pay homage to it, and their admiration for Cheng Hai is like a surging river, endless.

"My God, scoring three free kicks in one game is simply beyond my imagination."

"I thought Mikhailovich's free-kick hat-trick was a swan song. I didn't expect Cheng Hai to be able to replicate Uncle Miha's miracle after 14 years."

"You guys still know about Miha. I never even thought about it. I can score three free kicks in one game. If it weren't for Cheng Hai, I wouldn't even know about Mikhailovich's free kick hat-trick."

"It's amazing, Cheng Hai is really the best."

"Do you think Cheng Hai will become the first person to perform a free kick for four goals in the future?"

"Damn it, you can't even think about it upstairs! A hat-trick of free kicks is enough to shock the world, and you still want to have a big four from free kicks? However, why do I think Cheng Hai is likely to achieve it?"

"That's right! If there is really someone who can achieve the miracle of the first free kick in a single game, I think it should be Cheng Hai. Only a peerless genius like Cheng Hai can achieve such a miracle."

"That's too far away, I just want to know how Real Madrid is feeling now!"

"Haha, last season's semi-final was eliminated by Dortmund, this season came again, and he was abused in the group stage twice, and came again in the semi-final. Mourinho is really miserable."

"Iker Casillas is also miserable. He was pierced by Cheng Hai's free kick three times, which is terrible!"

"Poor! Sympathy!"

"Even the Galacticos can be sympathized with, which shows the horror of Dortmund."

Amidst the heated discussions around the world about Cheng Hai's free-kick hat-trick, three days later, on April 4, in the 27st round of the Bundesliga, Dortmund challenged Dusseldorf away.

After 90 minutes, the score on the big screen was 1-3.

Not surprisingly, Dusseldorf was easily defeated by Dortmund. Although the Hornets scored few goals, they firmly controlled the game.

The reason for the low number of goals is that Klopp has rotated many players. After all, at the end of the season, everyone has some physical problems.

Even Cheng Hai didn't start the game, but came off the bench in the second half.

When Cheng Hai was shoveled by Ramos behind the back in the last game, although a more careful inspection after the game proved that there was nothing serious, Klopp was still more careful. He did not let Cheng Hai start consecutively, but only came off the bench in the second half. He only scored one goal and had one assist.

赢下这场比赛之后，多特蒙德继续保持了本赛季迄今为止不败的战绩，以28胜3平0负、积84分的积分高居2012/2013赛季德甲积分榜No.1。

Although No.2 Bayern Munich is also very strong, they have not fallen behind, and they have maintained a complete victory in recent rounds.

But with fewer and fewer games until the end of the season, Bayern Munich's chances of overturning Dortmund to win the Bundesliga championship this season have become smaller and smaller.

Currently, Borussia Dortmund ranks first in the standings with 84 points, while Bayern Munich ranks second with 79 points.

Although the point difference is only 5 points, it doesn't look big, but you must know that the 31st round is over at this time. For the Bundesliga, which has only 18 teams and 34 league rounds in a season, there are only 3 rounds left.

What's even more coincidental is that Dortmund's opponent in the next round of the league is Bayern Munich: on April 4, the 30nd round of the 2012/2013 Bundesliga season, Dortmund will host Bayern Munich at the Westfalenstadion.

This is not only the German national derby, but also the top battle of the Bundesliga this season, and it is also a battle that can directly determine the Bundesliga champion this season.

Because, as long as Dortmund beat Bayern Munich at home, they will lead Bayern Munich by 2 points with only 8 rounds left in the league.
