Midfielder Ruler

Chapter 142: 2 away goals

"Aww-"

When Hummels fell to the top at the front point, the Porto fans at the Dragon Stadium burst into cheers instantly!

And what happened next didn't disappoint, as Falcao leaped from the wicket line and headed the ball into the top right corner of the goal.

The Portuguese national TV commentator cheered happily: "This is the iconic Hulk + Falcao passing route, and their tacit cooperation is fully reflected in this goal! Porto equalized the score at home!!"

At the same time, Boas raised his arms and shouted excitedly, venting the excitement brought about by the equalizer.

Falcao, who scored the goal, was very excited. He turned a small corner and rushed to Hulk who sent a wonderful cross.

Hummels, who was somewhat responsible for the conceded goal, had his hands on his hips, with displeasure written all over his face.

At this time, Tang Zheng ran over, clapped his hands vigorously towards Hummels, and said emotionally: "Who didn't make any mistakes in defense? Look at the goals we conceded in the Bundesliga. It's all about you and Nevin." credit!"

After finishing speaking, he yelled at his teammates who were a little depressed: "It's normal to lose the ball, just score one more!"

The live broadcast shot was shown to Tang Zheng, and New Wolves sports commentator Huang Jianxiang said with satisfaction: "The captain is the captain! Cheer up the teammates as soon as the team loses the ball! I think this is nothing to Porto who equalized the score Good thing!"

And the next game also verified Huang Jianxiang's guess.

Porto, who equalized the score, was preparing to overtake the score in one go, but they encountered stubborn resistance from Dortmund.

High-post pressure without hesitation, low-post defense to limit space.

Falcao, who scored the equalizer goal, was marked by Hummels and Subotic in turn, and he couldn't find a chance at all.

Even if he leaves Subotic's or Hummels' mark for a while, the ball at his feet will not be passed to him.

Porto fans at the Dragon Stadium were in good spirits as their beloved team equalized.

They seem to see the situation that often occurs in the league, the team lags behind, equalizes the score, and then overtakes!

This kind of plot has been performed countless times this season, and they believe that this game is also the same.

But will it really turn out that way?

At least now Dortmund have responded by pressing high and forcing the home team to choose a long pass from the back.

The blind long pass brought the scene back to the beginning of the game.

Porto did not play their own offensive specials on the field, and the cheers in the stands became somewhat weakened.

Boas, who was standing on the sidelines, had no choice but to signal the team to slow down the offensive rhythm, and at the same time asked the players not to move forward unless it was absolutely necessary.

Falcao's height is there, and the long pass from the backcourt lacks precision. Compared with the Dortmund defensive players who are facing the ball head-on, Falcao, who needs to consider many factors, obviously cannot control the football well.

Therefore, blindly moving forward is tantamount to actively returning possession to Dortmund.

High pressure is not an effective defensive routine for Porto. Only relying on the active fighting of Falcao and Hulk is difficult to force Dortmund to make mistakes in possession of the ball in the midfield.

※※※

In a blink of an eye, the game time entered the end of the first half.

After more than 40 minutes of back and forth between the two sides, their physical fitness has declined to a certain extent, and the offensive rhythm has slowed down very quickly.

And the cheers in the stands were not as high as the beginning stage, and it was the lowest since the start of the game.

In the forty-fourth minute, Tang Zheng handed the ball to Gotze who opened the gap on the right front.

Fernando immediately stuck to Gotze to prevent him from turning around.

Gotze, who is not yet nineteen years old, is still in the developmental stage, so his physical strength is naturally not as strong as Fernando's. He can only kick the ball back to Tang Zheng.

Perhaps because of being too relaxed, Tang Zheng's stop was a little too far away from his body.

Fernando jumped out, like a shark smelling blood, he jumped out.

Both are the kind of explosive players who stretched out their dominant foot and hit each other once.

After the kick, the test is the second reaction of the two.

Tang Zheng's feet are longer, and the frequency is relatively slower, Fernand's toe took the first step to poke it.

However, Tang Zheng's reaction was not slow, the football touched his feet, and the trajectory changed.

But from everyone's conventional understanding, football is closer to Fernando.

Because Fernando is facing the football, while Tang Zheng is facing the football.

Next, Fernando slammed forward, intending to get in position to take the ball completely, and then pass it to Guarin or Moutinho.

But Tang Zheng's movements were faster than he imagined. After he realized that he was half a beat slow in extending his legs, he immediately followed up with his toes, and his right arm stuck to his upper body and bumped towards Fernando who was standing up and forward.

Due to the interference, Fernando's forward movement was affected to a certain extent, Tang Zheng, who was originally a beat behind, managed to pull back with his extraordinary consciousness.

The bodies of the two were entangled and collided constantly, neither of them wanted to give up control of the football.

The final result was that Tang Zheng took advantage of his height and long legs to get the ball back.

When Fernando poked the ball in front of him, Moutinho and Guarin consciously spread out to find space, and even the two full-backs consciously opened up space.

But they didn't expect that in just two or three seconds, the control of football would change hands again and return to Dortmund's feet.

The offensive and defensive transition was so fast that the Porto players who were eager to overtake the score were a little too late to react.

In football matches, the most likely goal is not the beginning and end of the first and second half, but the moment when the opponent turns from defense to offense.

Because at this stage of transition from defense to offense, our players are all thinking about offense, and the defensive system is at the weakest stage.

So when Tang Zheng took advantage of his height and long legs to return the ball to his feet, Porto's defensive loopholes were infinitely magnified.

And Tang Zheng, who has excellent vision, also saw the loopholes in Porto's defense. With his back to the goal, he passed a half-high ball back with his left foot.

Gross Kreutz was going to return to defense, but the moment he turned around, he saw Tang Zheng cut the football back again, and he, who usually had similar cooperation, immediately realized that the opportunity had come.

as predicted!

The two thought together, Tang Zheng's pass came to Porto's defensive right flank.

That is, the space between Otamendi and Sapanaru.

When Rolando, who was at the back, raised his hand to signal Gross Kreutz to be offside, the goalkeeper and captain Helton had already abandoned the goal and blocked the opponent's shot at the first time!

"Ooh-oh--"

Suddenly, a huge exclamation erupted from the sky above the Dragon Stadium.

※※※

While the Porto fans erupted in exclamation, the Dortmund fans who came with the team raised their arms and shouted hysterically.

At the same moment, Marcel Leff jumped up from his seat again, chanting: "Don brought the ball back again, turned back without thinking, and Kevin Grosskreutz received it." Tang's pass! Not offside...he single-handedly!!"

The souls of the players in Porto's defense system headed by Rolando were almost scared out, and they chased back hard.

The coaches of the two sides standing on the sidelines had different expressions. Klopp naturally took a step forward, his upper body passed the sideline, while Boas seemed very nervous, his fists were naturally clenched, and his eyes were fixed on Gross. Kreutz and Helton.

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-"

The exclamation of the Porto fans who reacted subconsciously turned into wild boos, with the intention of interfering with Gross Kreutz's shot.

But Gross Kreutz did not choose to shoot, he knocked the ball laterally to the penalty area line.

Both Rolando and Otamendi's defensive attention were brought into the penalty area by Barrios. The midfielder Fernando has not yet returned to his position, and Guarin and Moutinho have just started.

Therefore, the arc top of the penalty area is left unmarked.

The live broadcast camera flicked suddenly, and Gotze, wearing the '31' jersey, appeared in the broadcast camera.

I saw him extend his right foot to stop the ball while running, and then kicked a half-high ball with his right foot.

Rolando, who fell to the ground and defended like a gamble, missed the football, and the football flew towards the unguarded empty goal...

"Goal in! Mario Gotze! A very calm kick and a half high ball, his goal helped Dortmund go beyond the score again in the away game 2:1! At the same time... this goal is also their second away goal Ball! The chances of promotion have increased!!"

Marcel Lev raised his voice, raised his arms and shouted.

New Wolves sports commentator Huang Jianxiang said excitedly: "This is Dortmund's most used way of scoring goals in the past two seasons! Through the high pressure formed at the first moment of conceding the ball to break the football, and then pass directly to the defensive space behind the opponent, Tang Zheng's Conceding the ball and stealing are the key to scoring goals, and Gross Kreutz, who is running, is not greedy for credit, he calmly finds Gotze who is unmarked..."

The broadcast camera locked on the goal scorer Gotze, his handsome baby face looked very excited.

Tang Zheng, who planned to score the goal, hugged Goetze vigorously behind his back, and shouted loudly: "Mario, that's great!"

Barrios rubbed Gotze's short hair vigorously, and joked loudly: "Boy, how can you be so calm? Let me lose a chance to make up the shot!"

After scoring the second away goal before the end of the first half, the Dortmund players were particularly happy. Hummels and Subotic, who were responsible for the team's conceded goals, sang a plea.

If this score can be maintained until the end of the game, even if you lose 0:1 at home, you can still advance with away goals.

Moreover, the team has been unbeaten at home for more than a season, will it lose in the second round of the Europa League 1/16 final?

This result is obviously impossible!

The Dragon Stadium faced Dortmund's celebration goals and seemed powerless. They conceded two goals at home in the home and away rounds of the knockout rounds, and the score was still behind.

What are you chasing after?
