Champion’s Heart

Maybe it’s because Real Madrid and Dortmund have become too familiar with each other in recent years, or maybe it’s because Real Madrid’s desire for revenge has set the pace – last season Real Madrid was eliminated in the semi-finals, and the “murderer” was Dortmund. . Later, Dortmund won the Champions League championship, which made Real Madrid fans couldn't help but wonder, if Real Madrid had eliminated Dortmund and reached the Champions League final, would it be Real Madrid who won the championship in the end?

Because of these factors, the game is very fast-paced.

In the first four minutes, there were three shots from both sides, two of which almost found the back of the net, one each, resulting in a tie.

When Dortmund kicked off again, they found that Real Madrid's players did not withdraw to the midfield in one breath. Benzema was on Dortmund's back line, and everyone else also defended accordingly.

Unless Weidenfeller kicks the football forward with a big kick, if he wants to pass the ball forward through a short pass, he will definitely face the pressing pressure of Real Madrid in the backcourt.

Seeing this situation, Zhou Yi took the initiative to retreat to meet his teammates.

Faced with such a deep retracement, it would be difficult for Khedira to keep up, otherwise the defensive area he was originally responsible for might become vacant and Dortmund could seize and exploit it.

Although Zhou Yi is the absolute core of Dortmund, he is not the only player who can threaten Real Madrid's defense with the ball.

The other Dortmund players have worked with Zhou Yi for several seasons, especially Weidenfeller, who already knows what to do in such a situation.

It’s not like I’ve never encountered situations where the opponent forced me like this in games before. Dortmund has trained many times for this situation.

So when Zhou Yi just ran into a three-nothing space, Weidenfeller decisively kicked the football over.

Before Weidenfeller passed the ball to him, Zhou Yi turned his head to the left to have a panoramic view of the situation on the left. When the football was passed to him, he quickly turned his head to the right and recorded the situation on the right. And when running towards Weidenfeller, he also turned his head to look at the situation behind him. So at this time, with his body as the center, he had full control of the 360-degree situation around him.

At the same time, in his brain, he analyzes all the information he has, and then makes reasonable choices based on the experience he has accumulated in countless games in the virtual world.

When the football was passed to him, Bell was already rushing towards him.

If Zhou Yi wants to turn around and dribble the ball by himself,

In terms of speed, he couldn't compete with Bell, and he was easily beaten by Bell based on his speed. And in terms of physical strength, he is not as good as Bell. As long as the opponent keeps putting pressure, he will not be able to get the ball.

But at the same time, because Bell rushed toward him, there was no Real Madrid player in his original position, and it was relatively empty.

And Yan Min retreated to that place exactly.

So Zhou Yi did not stop the ball, but adjusted his body direction while catching the ball, and then directly swept the football sideways with his left foot and passed it to Yan Min who retreated to respond.

Bell rushed forward but missed.

At the same time, a gap appeared behind him.

After Yan Min received Zhou Yi's pass, he immediately dribbled the ball forward.

Bell quickly turned around and chased Yan Min.

Before Yan Min caught up with him, he passed the football out again to his left back teammate Schmelzer who came from the wing.

After passing the ball, he continued to rush forward, forcing Real Madrid's right back Carvajal to not dare to come up to defend Schmelzer and could only follow Yan Min.

But Carvajal doesn’t have to worry about Schmelzer being left unmarked. Bell ran to defend Schmelzer again.

Schmelzer did not hesitate and immediately passed the football to the middle. At this time, Zhou Yi had already moved over and appeared in the receiving position, just in time to receive Schmelzer's pass.

But at the same time, because Zhou Yi came up, he also entered Khedira's defense zone, so Khedira also rushed towards him.

Zhou Yi didn't really catch the ball, but spread his legs and let the football pass under his crotch.

Khedira didn't expect this leak, and he missed it!

After missing the ball, Zhou Yi accelerated and rushed forward.

He passed the football to Sven Bender, and Sven Bender immediately pushed the football forward and gave it to Zhou Yi who intervened.

Zhou Yi just got rid of Khedira's defense.

What a great shot! He Ping exclaimed when he saw this, Get rid of it!

After getting rid of Khedira's defense, Zhou Yi did not pass the football immediately this time, but dribbled the ball towards Real Madrid's penalty area.

His move forced Ramos to rush up to fill Khedira's gap, and as a result, there was a hole in their defense.

This was the result Zhou Yi wanted. After seeing Ramos coming up, Zhou Yi used the outside instep of his right foot to move the football to the right in a very concealed way while dribbling the ball, and passed it to the feet of Aubameyang who was pulling horizontally. .

Varane quickly came over to defend Aubameyang. Under his interference, Aubameyang's shot missed.

Aubameyang... missed, oh! What a pity! He Ping shouted. Although Dortmund did not score a goal in this attack, the entire offensive process was very smooth. From Weidenfeller's ball to Aubameyang's shot, throughout the entire process, Dortmund kept passing the ball without letting a Real Madrid player touch it. I have been to football. Among them, Zhou Yi is the key figure in promoting this offense. He passed the ball after receiving the ball many times, allowing Dortmund's offense to run smoothly... He is the brain of Dortmund!

No matter what the situation, you can never go wrong by blowing up Zhou Yi.

And Zhou Yi's performance is indeed worthy of the praise.

This attack was beautiful, but it was a pity that Aubameyang failed to grasp the shot.

※※※

Dortmund did not play conservatively in this attack and quickly pushed the football into Real Madrid's frontcourt.

When it was Real Madrid's turn to attack, they gave full play to the tacit understanding and personal ability of the BBC combination. Modric sent Bale an exquisite through ball. The Welsh winger cut inside and then passed the ball across. If it hadn't been for Hume With a timely kick from Elles, the ball would really be passed to the feet of Cristiano Ronaldo in the middle of the penalty area, which would be dangerous.

Neither side played conservatively and both had opportunities to threaten the other side's goal.

The same goes for the next game.

You come and go, the rhythm is fast, and there are many shots. The audience is really excited to watch.

The commentators also praised the two teams' game mentality:

...This may be the fastest-paced Champions League final I have ever seen!

Real Madrid and Dortmund are not conservative at all. Dortmund's head coach Klopp has always been a lunatic who plays cards irrationally, but it is a bit surprising that a steady head coach like Ancelotti does this... Of course, maybe Ancelotti is confident enough in his team's offensive firepower, so he dealt with Klopp in this way - if they want to attack, Real Madrid will never be at a disadvantage!

Fifteen minutes have passed since the start of the game. The two sides have jointly contributed eight shots, four shots each. They are tied in terms of the number of shots. The number of attacks into the opponent's thirty-meter area is more, and the two sides have added a total of It happened as many as ten times. You must know that this game has only started for fifteen minutes...Such high-quality attacks are rarely seen in ordinary games, let alone the Champions League final!

Thanks to Real Madrid and Dortmund for their aggressive attack, which gave us a fantastic fifteen minutes!

...I think this final can be regarded as a big test of heart health for the fans of the two teams...

But the offense of both sides is very active, which does not mean that their defense is useless.

In fact, while the two teams were actively attacking, the intensity of the fight was not low at all.

In the 16th minute, Coentrao pushed Royce to the ground. Royce was not slow about Coentrao's move. He asked the referee to show Coentrao a yellow card. However, the referee Kuipers did not do this and only issued a verbal warning.

In the next 22 minutes, Royce tackled Coentrao in retaliation. The referee Kuipers did not hesitate to show Royce a yellow card this time. This was the first yellow card of the game. .

This penalty caused dissatisfaction among some Dortmund players. They believed that the referee's penalty was obviously biased in favor of Real Madrid.

However, Real Madrid center back Ramos came forward to accuse Reus of going too far in retaliatory foul. His actions further inflamed the emotions of the Dortmund players. In order to control the situation, the referee Kuipez also showed Ramos a yellow card...

What is Ramos doing? the Spanish commentator was surprised. What does this matter have to do with him? Why did he get together? He even got himself a yellow card! He is a central defender! The central defender received a yellow card so early for such a meaningless thing. He planted a time bomb in the next game... What on earth was he thinking?

Not to mention that the Spanish commentator couldn't figure it out, Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti was also dissatisfied with Ramos' move. He waved his arms angrily on the sidelines, then turned to his assistant coach Zidane and complained: It was obviously a situation where we benefited, but now it's even! It's even worse for us...

Zidane explained: Sergio can be impulsive sometimes. He may want to stand up for his teammates...

In this way, one player from Real Madrid and Dortmund each received a yellow card.
