Football No. 10: God's Perspective

Just like Sir Alex Ferguson back then, the hair dryer was turned on during the halftime break.

Head coach Tuchel was the first to come out of the locker room. He was no longer as angry as before, and sat on the bench expressionlessly, motionless.

"Beep"

The second half of the game began.

The home team Cologne, which had a two-goal advantage, chose to retreat to the defense line and gave up control of the ball in the midfield.

The offensive team of Dortmund, led by Wang Po, attacked Cologne's goal.

The opponent seemed to be well prepared, with a strong and dense defense, which ensured the strength of the defense. Several consecutive attacks were unsuccessful.

Whether it was penetration in the middle, crosses from the wing, or rib work, Cologne's defense was impenetrable.

There were only 15 minutes left before the end of the game, and there was not much time left for Dortmund, and the players' mentality became more and more impatient.

In contrast, the long-sided head coach Tuchel was calm and relaxed.

What happened?

In the past, Tuchel always stood on the sidelines and gave passionate instructions, but now that the team was behind, he was surprisingly calm.

"Give up?"

The commentator in front of the TV couldn't help but blurt out when he saw this scene.

Little did they know that Tuchel's silence was more frightening than his roar in the locker room.

Finally found an opportunity.

Ousmane Dembele, who got the ball on the wing, used his excellent dribbling skills to pass the Cologne team's midfielder and their right back in succession. Facing Dembele who had already entered the penalty area, the Cologne team's defender panicked, and the central defender who stepped forward to make up for the position made a big foul, and Dembele fell to the ground.

"Beep"

The whistle sounded, penalty kick.

The referee showed a yellow card warning to the Cologne central defender who was defending recklessly, and sentenced Cologne to death.

Although this penalty kick was undisputed, the Cologne team still appealed to the referee with a wronged look, hoping that he would show mercy.

Facing the injustice of the Cologne players, the black-clad referee was ruthless and unwavering.

Penalty, a great scoring opportunity.

Wang Po stood at the penalty spot holding the ball. With his current status in the team, as a penalty taker, no one would have any objections.

The home team fans made a tsunami of noise, trying to interfere with Wang Po who was taking the penalty.

The fans are one aspect, but the penalty is more about the psychological pressure. With two goals behind and only 7 minutes left in the game, if they score, they can still keep hope. If they don't score, they will fall into hell completely, and the game will be over.

With such a big responsibility on the penalty taker, you can imagine the pressure in his heart.

Of course, there is another aspect, which is the psychological game between the penalty taker and the goalkeeper.

"Huh"

Ignoring the pressure from the outside world, Wang Po took a deep breath, waited for the referee's whistle to sound, took a run-up, and shot.

Although the Cologne goalkeeper judged the direction correctly, he still couldn't stop the ball from entering the net.

3 to 4.

Only one goal behind, Wang Po kept hope for Dortmund.

Dortmund launched the most crazy counterattack, the team pressed forward and shot 4 times within 3 minutes, but it was still far from scoring.

At the most critical moment, Wang Po stood up.

He got the ball at the top of the penalty area, and lightly fried meatballs passed the forward midfielder. He suddenly accelerated with a spike with the outside of his foot and rushed into the penalty area, catching Cologne off guard. The center of gravity of the people in the penalty area was shaken.

He found the shooting space, a hidden calf swing, and the goalkeeper of Cologne had not reacted yet, and the ball had rolled into the goal.

4 to 4.

It was still Dortmund's No. 11 and Wang Po who planned the shocking reversal.

Facing the Cologne team with the advantage of home court and the momentum, he saved the team that fell into hell with his three passes and one shot.

There is still time.

The referee did not blow the whistle, Wang Po and his team still had a chance.

The ball was kicked out quickly, and all the players of Dortmund, except the goalkeeper, pressed forward like chicken blood. Have you seen the 10 forward formation?

Yes, in the final injury time, the players of Dortmund were crazy, and they saw the hope of getting three points.

After getting the ball, Wang Po made a super pass and comfortably passed the ball to the feet of striker Aubameyang who was pulling to the side. The latter's speed was beyond the reach of the defenders, and he shook off the defensive players on the side like a flash of lightning.

At the end of the game, Cologne's continuous loss of the ball had made their defenders like frightened birds. When they were broken, several people surrounded Ousmane Dembele.

People can be trapped, but the ball cannot be trapped.

Facing heavy siege, Ousmane Dembele showed his maturity and caution that did not belong to his age group.

A lob broke through the opponent's double-team. Wang Po, who came in from the back row, combined the three actions of receiving, stopping, and dribbling into one. It seems to be just a simple touch, but in fact, it is the embodiment of real kung fu.

For football players, stopping the ball is a basic skill, and it is this stopping that best shows the kung fu.

A good stopping can reduce the adjustment of the pace and help the players to make the next move in the shortest time, which wins them an advantage over their opponents in a narrow space.

Don't underestimate this move, the decisive moment lies in the victory of this move.

Stopping the ball requires acquired efforts on the one hand, and also requires one's own talent on the other.

On this aspect, Ronaldinho, Marcelo, Zidane, Messi and other players, who is not a well-known player at the ceiling level in each position?

Wang Po's receiving, stopping and carrying showed his solid basic skills. Such actions are rare even in the highest level of the Champions League. This is an advanced action.

Laymen watch the excitement, experts see the doorway.

When the commentator with more than ten years of commentary experience saw Wang Po throwing such an advanced action, he couldn't help but exclaimed "King of Football".

A tiny detail made Wang Po break through very smoothly. After a pause, a trip, and another pause, the center of gravity of the defensive players had long been gone. The defenders of the Cologne team fell into a mess, and they were tortured in their hearts. They just hoped that Wang Po would shoot quickly.

Here it comes.

Finding the right angle, Wang Po volleyed the ball into the corner.

The last moment! The last moment!

Wang Po saved the Dortmund team.

5 to 4.

The Hornets overtook the score.

After falling behind for a whole game, they finally overtook the opponent and got three points.

You know, 20 minutes ago, the biggest hope of both the players and the fans was to equalize and get one point.

Now they have three points, further consolidating their top position.

Bayern fans far away in Munich were sliding on their knees in the living room too early.

Wang Pei became the brightest star of the game.

What is a core? What is a star? Oh, no, a superstar.
