Champion’s Heart

Zhouyi! Zhouyi! Oh beautiful! The ball has been scored! Duan Xin shouted excitedly in the studio. This is his first goal of the season, the first league goal! 2:0! Dortmund further expanded their lead!

As he said, Duan Xin was excited because this was Zhou Yi's first goal of the season.

Whether it is the league or the Champions League, he has not been able to score before.

Although Zhou Yi himself is not a player who is good at scoring goals, he played 21 times last season and had 14 assists in the league, but only scored two goals.

After all, he is a playmaker. This season, the position has been further retreated, and there is even less chance to get close to the goal to score.

Under such circumstances, his goal will naturally make the supporters very excited.

After scoring the goal, Zhou Yi ran to Shinji Kagawa who passed the ball to him, and the two hugged together.

Other teammates rushed forward and surrounded them.

When leading 1:0, I was still somewhat uncertain, but Zhou Yi's goal gave everyone a reassurance.

After Zhou Yi's goal, Klopp raised his arms and chanted from the sidelines, while the Dortmund fans in the stands kept chanting Zhou Yi's name.

Dortmund was double-killed by Bayern Munich last season. Dortmund fans have a bad breath in their hearts and want to vent it.

Now they finally got their wish.

Bayern Munich, which is two goals behind, must not be reconciled to losing the game like this. Just one minute after Zhou Yi scored, they began to make substitutions and adjustments.

Defender Braff Head was replaced and striker Olic played.

From this substitution adjustment, we can see Van Gaal's thoughts.

He wanted to attack desperately.

However, Dortmund, who led by two goals, began to recover their defense. Coupled with Bayern Munich's weak offense, it is useless to have more strikers.

In the 76th minute, Klopp replaced Shinji Kagawa with Lewandowski, further maintaining the pressure on Bayern Munich on offense,

This made Bayern Munich dare not really attack desperately.

In the end, the score was not rewritten, and Dortmund defeated Bayern Munich 2-0 at home. It can be regarded as revenge for being double-killed last season.

after the game. Zhou Yi was stopped by reporters in the mixed zone and asked him his opinion on the victory of this game, and whether he had a sense of revenge.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yi curled his lips and shook his head: No, not at all. Bayern Munich's recent state is really bad. This is not their real strength, defeating such a Bayern Munich. I don't feel any pleasure of revenge .”

After speaking, he waved his hand and walked away from the reporters.

Judging from his expression. He really didn't have that particularly obvious look of pride, just like winning an ordinary game.

This game is very important to the outside world. To him, it seemed insignificant.

However, what Zhou Yi said was indeed reasonable, and the reporters couldn't find anything wrong with it.

The state of this Bayern Munich team is really bad. They dare to lose any team. What is so incredible about losing to Dortmund away?

※※※

A home win over Bayern Munich did nothing to lift Dortmund up the table. Because the top-ranked Mainz won again, they defeated Hoffenheim 4:2 at home. They have maintained a winning streak since the league.

In the eighth round of the league, Borussia Dortmund challenged Cologne away.

They also won this game. 2:1. Kuba and Gotze each scored a goal.

And Mainz finally ended their winning streak, they were defeated by Hamburg 0:1 at home.

In this way, both Dortmund and Mainz have seven wins and one loss, with 21 points. In terms of goal difference, Dortmund is more than Mainz, so Dortmund's ranking rose to the first place.

I don't know how long it has been, Dortmund finally sat on the first chair in the league...

This moment is indeed memorable for Dortmund.

Because ever since the team fell into an economic crisis and had to rely on selling stars to survive, the team's performance has fluctuated. It is very difficult to rush to the top four in the league, let alone the first in the league. is impossible.

Now that they have become the number one in the league, what does this mean?

Considering that Dortmund finally ranked second in the league last season, this shows that Dortmund has really begun to recover.

At the beginning of the new season, after Shaheen left the team, many people were worried about Dortmund's prospects for the new season. They believed that only Zhou Yi was the core, and it would be difficult to take the team to a higher level. The Dortmund team has never been an ambitious team that can retain the core, so their ranking this season may not be as good as the second place last season.

As a result, after eight rounds of the league, Dortmund became number one, and Zhou Yi also performed well. With one goal and five assists in eight league rounds, he is the well-deserved core of the team.

Zhou Yi played well in Dortmund, and looking at Shaheen who left the team, how is he doing now?

After Shaheen moved to Real Madrid, he took over the No. 5 number left by Zidane, but his life in Real Madrid was not satisfactory. Under Mourinho, he couldn't even start the game.

So far, he has not played for Real Madrid. On the one hand, he is affected by injuries, and on the other hand, Real Madrid bought him to serve as a substitute for Harvey Alonso. How can it be compared with playing the main core in Dortmund?

Maybe Shaheen knew that he would be a substitute in Real Madrid, but he still accepted Real Madrid's invitation.

This is a matter of personal choice. Some people would rather have a phoenix tail than a chicken head, and some would rather have a chicken head than a phoenix tail. There is nothing to say, just be responsible for your personal choice.

It is not an example of success without going to a wealthy family, and it is also not an example of not being exhausted on the bench of a wealthy family.

Now that La Liga has only started for more than a month, it is still unknown what the final result of Shaheen will be in Real Madrid.

But anyway, Zhou Yi played very happily in Dortmund, like a fish in water. I don't know how Shaheen will feel when he sees the current situation of his former midfield partner.

In the match against Cologne, Zhou Yi did not start the game, he came off the bench.

The reason is that the third round of the UEFA Champions League group stage will soon follow, and Dortmund will challenge the seeded team of this group, the defending champion Inter Milan, away.

In order to ensure that the core players are fully rested, Zhou Yi sat on the bench in the game against Cologne, and only played for ten minutes in the end. No goals, no assists. To play is to stay in the game.

Inter Milan should be the strongest opponent Dortmund can face in the group stage.

And judging from the last group match, Inter Milan defeated Valencia 4:0 at home, which also showed a signal of their strong recovery.

The current Inter Milan is different from the Inter Milan that was tied away by Twente in the first game of the group stage.

Zhou Yi discovered a situation. This season started with the team's two-line battle. The number of simulated matches he played against some opponents in the virtual space also dropped.

If there are two games in a week, then he only has half a week to play a mock game with the next opponent. It is impossible for him to skip the league opponents and directly challenge the Champions League opponents in the middle of next week. The system does not allow this.

He can choose not to kick, but not to skip.

In this way, he played against league opponents for half a week. Playing against Champions League opponents for half a week, the number of games has been reduced by half.

Does this have any effect?

There are still. After all, the time to understand the opponent has been cut in half.

But Zhou Yi felt that the impact was not too great. After all, half a week was enough. You must know that in the virtual space, one hour in the real world is equal to a virtual day. Even if it's only half a week, three days. Sleeping seven hours a day is also twenty-one hours of sleep, which is equivalent to twenty-one hours in the virtual world. For three full weeks.

If you play against a team for three consecutive weeks and play one game every day, that's 21 games.

It is still enough to understand and be familiar with the opponent.

Dortmund came to Milan a day early. Because Gross Kreutz received a red card in the last game, he will be automatically suspended for this game.

Klopp let Kuba, who scored in the previous league game, replace the suspended Gross Kreuz in the start against Inter Milan.

Personnel in other positions remain unchanged.

For this game, Klopp made a very detailed arrangement. For him, the best result is that Dortmund beat Inter Milan away. But if you can't beat it, it's not bad to be able to draw in the end.

Losing is to be avoided as much as possible.

He also wants to compete with Inter Milan, who is the first in the group...

If you want to go further in the knockout stage, the first place in the group is of course better than the second place in the group.

After arriving in Milan, Zhou Yi chatted with everyone in the group at night.

Where is Lao Guo? Why didn't you come to the airport to greet him? Are you friends? Is there any friendship? Really, since winning the Champions League, he has become more and more famous!

Guo Nu rolled his eyes: Are you greeted with rotten eggs?

Since Inter Milan won the UEFA Champions League last season, everyone—mainly Zhou Yi and Sun Pan—loved to tease Guo Nu as Mr. UEFA Champions League in the group, because his team was the first among everyone to win the UEFA Champions League Champion's. But in fact, this champion of the Champions League has nothing to do with Guo Nu. Of course he will not force his face to put gold on his face, but Zhou Yi and Sun Pan can't hold back Zhou Yi and Sun Pan want to put gold on his face...

It's just that in Guo Nu's view, this kind of practice is simply to force the shit basin on himself, and he firmly refuses to admit it.

Hey, Lao Guo, will you appear on the big list? Zhou Yi asked again.

No! Of course Guo Nu thought that Zhou Yi was mocking himself and provoking him deliberately. Because he didn't even play in the first team, how could he be in the 18-man squad?

It is impossible for Zhou Yi not to know this.

Of course Zhou Yi knew, because in the virtual game before the game, Guo Nu was not at all present.

It's such a pity, how about this, you treat me to a meal after the game?

If you lose, I will treat you to dinner. Guo Nu said. For comfort.

If you don't want to please, just say it, don't curse me like this.

Who cursed you? This is our home stadium! Isn't it normal to win you? Guo Nu was originally a fan of Barcelona, ​​and **** wanted to play for Barcelona, ​​but then by accident Come to Inter Milan, Inter Milan also became his home team.

Sun Pan jumped out: The market opens, I bet Inter Milan will win!

He Ying: I support Zhou Yi.

Yang Muge hesitated for a while and said, Then I'll bet on a draw... (To be continued.) Activate the new website
