Champion’s Heart

Yan Min's goal instantly turned the Westfield Stadium into a sea of ​​joy.

At this time, no one cares about the opportunity he missed against Arsenal.

Dortmund fans are happy, Arsenal supporters are not happy at all.

It was the 82nd minute of the game when Yan Min scored. Even including injury time, it was only 11 or 2 minutes before the end of the game.

It's not impossible for Arsenal to equalize the score in the remaining time, but it is very difficult.

When the Dortmund players celebrated the goal, Yan Min's goal was replayed over and over again on the TV broadcast. From the moment he turned around to get rid of Sagna to the final goal, the whole process was completed in one go.

Yan Min, who came on as a substitute, has physical fitness and speed. Now that he has just scored a goal, his condition is definitely not good. In the following time, if Arsenal wants to equalize the score, they must strengthen their offense, but once they strengthen their offense, there will be more spaces behind them... Then Dortmund will make a quick counterattack and let Yan Min get the ball. …Arsenal’s goal is in danger.

In fact, this was indeed the case. When the game restarted, Dortmund did not continue to press forward and besiege Arsenal's goal. Instead, they chose to do the opposite - they shrank their defense!

If Arsenal wants to attack and equalize the score, then Dortmund will counterattack defensively. If Arsenal did not attack and did not plan to equalize the score, then Dortmund would be happy to just hold on to a small victory with one goal.

Anyway, they lost to Arsenal 1:2 in the away game. At least when comparing the outcome with Arsenal, Dortmund did not suffer.

The question was put to Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger.

Wenger stood on the sidelines with a sad face and a frown that looked more like the well-known comedy character Bean in the UK.

But at this time, the British Arsenal fans couldn't laugh at all. They frowned like Wenger.

Is attack or defense next?

After thinking for a while, Wenger made the decision to attack, but not with all his strength. While attacking, he also did not forget to defend.

This is a relatively conservative and prudent approach. It has not completely given up hope of equalizing the score, but it is not desperate to equalize the score.

However, this choice is a bit mediocre. If you cannot go all out on offense, the possibility of equalizing the score will be greatly reduced.

Wenger certainly knows the drawbacks of this. But now he has no other way.

He wanted to equalize the score, but he didn't want to lose more.

But he was very afraid of Yan Min.

Through these two confrontations, Yan Min's characteristics have been fully revealed. In Wenger's view, Yan Min's biggest feature is not his speed, explosive power, or dribbling ability, but his outstanding individual combat ability.

Yan Min is the kind of player who doesn't need support and can use his personal abilities to cause trouble for his opponents even if he is trapped in a tight siege.

This means that he is the best player on the counterattack.

Dortmund did exactly this, or Zhou Yi thought so.

So as long as there is a ball, he will give as much football to Yan Min as possible and then ignore it.

Yan Min will use his physical advantages and personal skills to drive the ball towards Arsenal's penalty area again and again. Even if the shot cannot finally be formed, it can still delay a little more time, and prevent Arsenal's defenders from pressing forward across the board, and unable to provide more support to the offensive players in front.

What a treasure... muttered assistant coach Zeljko Buvac.

Next to him, Klopp grinned widely.

Of course he knew he had found a treasure, otherwise he would not have brought this Chinese boy from China to Germany.

Although young Yan Min still has many shortcomings, those shortcomings can be corrected and changed little by little. What attracts him most is the shining point of Yan Min.

This young man feels just like Zhou Yi gave him back then, with unlimited possibilities...

Under Yan Min's constant harassment, Arsenal played very unpleasantly and felt like they couldn't exert any energy.

The game time does not wait for them, and they follow a fixed rhythm.

When the fourth official raised a sign indicating three minutes of injury time on the sidelines, there were only three minutes left for Arsenal.

The score is still 2:1, Dortmund leads at home.

Will three minutes be enough for Arsenal to equalize the score?

It's certainly enough in theory, but considering the actual situation... many people are not optimistic about it.

In the last three minutes, Arsenal also went all out. Anyway, we only have so little time, so why not go all out and give it a try? What if we really create a miracle?

Just be careful with Dortmund's No. 13 when attacking.

So at the last moment of the game, Arsenal suddenly exerted force and set off an offensive climax.

However, their offense did not break through Dortmund's door. Instead, in the 92nd minute, Dortmund seized the opportunity and launched a counterattack.

At that time, Zhou Yi picked up the ball in the backcourt and directly passed the ball diagonally to Yan Min who was cruising on the wing in front.

As soon as Yan Min received the ball, he faced the frontal defense of Arsenal players.

This time, Yan Min did not force a breakthrough with the ball. Instead, after receiving the ball, he swept the football directly to the center with his left foot.

Following up in the middle is Royce!

He is completely unmarked!

Reus! Marcel Leif shouted excitedly, Does Dortmund still have a chance to score another goal?!

The Dortmund fans in the stands also jumped up and cheered for Reus.

Reus received the ball at the top of the penalty arc outside the penalty area. At this time, he was already facing Arsenal goalkeeper Szczesny alone.

Facing the attacking Szczesny, Royce took a shot. When his toe came into contact with the football, he flicked it and the shot turned into a spoon lob!

The football passed over Szczesny's head, fell behind him, and landed in the goal behind him...

3:1!!! Royce! He sealed the victory for Dortmund! And in the two rounds of meetings, Dortmund surpassed Arsenal in the number of goals! This provides an advantage for possible smaller points in the future. !” Marcel Leif shouted.

Royce's goal was definitely a surprise. Many people thought that defeating Arsenal 2:1 was good. This is a completely happy result.

Although the two sides are exactly the same in terms of victory and defeat, number of away goals, total score, total number of goals, and goal difference. But Dortmund supporters are content.

Unexpectedly, Royce's goal has brought them a new surprise - if they beat Arsenal 3:1, the outcome of both sides would be one win and one loss, and both away goals would be one, but Dortmund's The goal difference became one and Arsenal lost one. If such small points need to be compared in the end, Dortmund will surpass Arsenal with this goal difference advantage!

Maybe it is just such a goal that determines who can advance to the knockout stage?

Royce was also very happy after scoring. He ran to find Yan Min who passed the ball to him, and then held him in his arms.

Other Dortmund players also ran up to join in the celebration.

Yan Min's performance after coming off the bench was perfect! He Ping's focus was not on Royce or the score, but on Chinese player Yan Min. With one goal and one assist, his popularity even surpassed that of Zhou Yi, who also had one goal and one assist. What's even more gratifying is that after this game, Yan Min will get more playing opportunities in Dortmund. Then we will have more opportunities to appreciate his powerful performances!

A Bundesliga team has two Chinese players gaining a foothold. This is what He Ping is most happy about.

At the same time, on the Chinese Internet, many Chinese fans are cheering for Yan Min's outstanding performance.

As a Chinese fan, of course I hope that Chinese football will get better and better.

What’s the sign that it’s getting better? Of course, more Chinese players can appear on the top European football stage and perform well.

These outstanding players will in turn promote the improvement of the Chinese national team's performance.

Everyone is already familiar with the Five Little Tigers and is no stranger to them. But a team can't always rely on Zhou Yi and the other five, right?

Everyone hopes to see more outstanding players join it.

Yan Min appeared against the background of such expectations. Ever since his family joined Dortmund, he has attracted much attention. Because of the attention he has received, his words and deeds have aroused huge repercussions among Chinese fans. His performance during and after the last game against Arsenal can arouse everyone's heated discussion.

Now Yan Min's outstanding performance has made many Chinese fans breathe a sigh of relief.

Less than a year later, it will be the World Cup in Brazil. The Chinese national team, which has already won the right to qualify for the World Cup in Brazil, will go to the World Cup for the second time. At this time, with one more outstanding player, fans are excited about the Chinese team next year. The prospects for the World Cup will also become more confident.

Moreover, Yan Min is also an assaulter that is not among the Five Little Tigers. This is simply adding wings to a tiger - Yan Min is the wings of the Five Little Tigers.
