Champion’s Heart

Chapter 143 Stormy Storm

The fifteen-minute intermission passed quickly as everyone waited impatiently.

After the players from both sides stood still on the court, the game did not start immediately.

The fourth official held up a substitution sign on the sidelines, and Yan Min stood next to him, waiting to be replaced.

This new situation surprised He Ping: Yan Min is going to be substituted! This time Klopp gave him half a game! This adjustment is indeed... If Klopp wants to strengthen his offense, Yan Min will be replaced. Min is definitely a good candidate! Replacing Yan Min means that Dortmund will sound the charge for the second half of the attack!

Marcel Leif also expressed his affirmation of Klopp's substitution: Yan Min came on as a substitute in the games against Arsenal and Bayern Munich and performed very well. When the team needed to score three goals in the second half, In the case of a ball, it is indeed the right thing to consider replacing Yan Min...

Yan Min, a young Chinese player, transferred from China to Dortmund this summer... Upon seeing this, the Italian commentator also began to introduce Yan Min to the Italian TV audience. Of course, if it weren't for Yan Min's outstanding performance recently, the Italian commentator might not have introduced it in such detail. In the Champions League group stage, Dortmund defeated Arsenal at home. He performed well and was a key figure in Dortmund's victory. In the last league game, against Bayern Munich, he was very active after coming off the bench and gave an assist to help Dortmund. Finally, they tied with Bayern Munich at home... He is a player with strong personal breakthrough ability with the ball. He is fast, explosive and has excellent foot skills. Naples defenders need to cheer up when facing him... …”

Midfielder Shaheen was replaced by Yan Min.

This substitution adjustment was made in the locker room, so Shaheen does not have to play. He is now on the bench.

The fourth official raised the sign and told everyone that Dortmund had made a substitution. Yan Min ran directly onto the court without having to hand over to anyone.

Dortmund's formation, which replaced Sahin and replaced Yan Min, looked a bit like the formation when they played Bayern Munich in the last league game.

Aubameyang moved forward and partnered with Mark to play as a double forward. Yan Min occupied Aubameyang's original position, and the others' positions remained unchanged.

As He Ping said, replacing Yan Min means that Dortmund has sounded the clarion call for a general attack.

Although Klopp encouraged and comforted his players in the dressing room, don't worry. But from a tactical perspective, he had no intention of waiting patiently.

So from the beginning of the second half, except for Naples launching an offensive after the kick-off, Dortmund basically besieged Naples' goal.

At the beginning, when Dortmund was besieged like this, the Italian commentator kept telling the audience in front of the TV that this was a perfect opportunity for Naples to counterattack!

But he soon stopped saying that.

Because in the face of Dortmund's aggressive attack, Naples couldn't even get past halftime, so what's the point of counterattack?

In the fifth minute of the second half, Yan Min pretended to break through from the left wing, then buckled the football back with his left foot, and then made a pass with his right foot. Mark grabbed the spot in the middle and headed the ball slightly wide.

Three minutes later, in the fifty-third minute,

During Dortmund's counterattack, Zhou Yi sent a through ball, and he accurately found Royce. Royce's diagonal shot from the left side of the penalty area missed again.

A minute later, Dortmund made a comeback. Zhou Yi distributed the football to Royce on the right in the middle, and Royce swept the football sideways to the goal. Mark planned to stab the ball from behind, but unfortunately before him, the Naples defender had already blocked the football, and it happened to fall into the hands of the attacking goalkeeper Reina...

In the 55th minute, when Zhou Yi led a sudden advance in the frontcourt, he was knocked to the ground by Behrami. The referee Carvalho decisively blew the whistle and whistled Behrami for a foul. In addition to giving him a verbal warning, Dortmund takes a free kick.

The free kick was still taken by Royce. Although the ball was a bit far from the goal, Royce shot it directly!

After the football went high over the wall, it looked like it was going to fly directly high and out of the baseline.

But after reaching the penalty area, the football suddenly fell!

Reina hesitated at first, but when he saw the football falling, he quickly took a step back, then jumped up, stretched out his hands, and lifted the fallen football out in front of the crossbar!

Oh! This ball... this ball seems to be falling! This result surprised the commentators.

※※※

In the 58th minute, this time Napoli finally reached the edge of Dortmund's penalty area.

Behrami got the ball in the middle, and then planned to pass it diagonally to his teammates on the line of the penalty area.

As a result, his intention to pass the ball was so obvious that Kyle, who was guarding him head-on, saw through it and blocked the football as soon as he stretched out his foot!

Then Kyle passed the football to Zhou Yi who was nearby.

Zhou Yi passed the ball horizontally to Yan Min diagonally in front.

When Yan Min caught the ball, Naples players also pressed forward.

I saw Yan Min gently move the football to the right with the outside instep of his right foot, and then jumped up lightly, just dodging the Naples player's attack.

Then he caught up with the football and ran forward with the ball!

Naples' second player immediately came forward. Yan Min did not continue to break through with the ball this time, but passed the football to Royce who cut in from the right to the center.

It was a great pass because Royce was unmarked!

Because Dortmund's counterattack was made by stealing the ball when Naples was attacking, Naples was caught off guard. There were not enough people to retreat and they seemed a little panicked.

Royce took advantage of this panic opportunity and received Yan Min's pass without anyone marking him.

Then Royce dribbled the ball forward, and Zemayili caught up from behind, but Royce had already brushed half of his body away. He tugged on Reus' jersey, but thought that if he fouled now, it would give Dortmund a perfectly positioned free kick, so he hesitated and let go.

Royce also took the opportunity to shake off Zemayili and reach the top of the penalty arc.

At the same time, Mark, who was originally on the left, also cut inside and ran towards the center.

He and Royce met at the top of the penalty arc. He was in front, pulling the Napoli defender into the center, plus the center back who was originally defending Royce in the center, and Zemaili who was catching up from behind. It means that all of Naples' defensive power is now concentrated in the small penalty arc area, and both the left and right sides are completely blank!

On the left, Zhou Yi has plugged in at high speed for everyone to see.

He Ping shouted anxiously: Pass the ball! Pass the ball!

He wanted Royce to pass to Zhou Yi.

Royce also saw Zhou Yi cutting in from the left wing, so he pushed the football over with his right foot!

Good shot! Marcel Leif cheered for Royce's pass.

The football rolled towards Zhou Yi, and he did not speed up to meet the ball while running. Instead, he began to adjust his pace. He took a long step forward, adjusted his pace to the most suitable rhythm, and then he raised his right foot!

Shoot directly without stopping the ball!

The inside of his right foot rubbed against the football. The football flew up, drew an arc in the air, and turned directly to the back corner of the goal!

Zhou Yi - shoot -!!

Goalkeeper Reina flew into the air and stretched his arms to the limit, but he failed to touch the football!

He looked back at the goal and saw the football bypassing him and flying straight into the goal!

Zhou Yi!! Zhou Yi!! Marcel Leif excitedly shouted Zhou Yi's name. In the 58th minute, he expanded Dortmund's lead! This goal was very, very beautiful!! Perfect arc! Direct shot without stopping the ball! Now Dortmund is only two goals away from their goal! And the second half only started thirteen minutes!!”

※※※

When the football flew into the goal, the Westfield Stadium erupted into huge cheers, and the overwhelming cheers hit everyone in the stadium. To the Dortmund players, the cheers were like a shot in the arm, making their blood boil.

And to the Naples players, the cheers and cheers sounded like a death knell... Their home stadium, the St. Paul's Stadium, is also known for its fanaticism, but at Dortmund's home court, they were used to hearing the cheers of fanatical fans, and they were still shocked. Living.

For a moment, their confidence was shaken, thinking that Dortmund could really score four goals against them at home...
