Midfielder Ruler
Chapter 94 Champions League Top 4
"Oh oh oh——"
The football flying into the air did not spin at all, but as the route increased, its trajectory changed strangely and became very floating, so the die-hard Dortmund fans in the South Stand of the Westphalia Stadium subconsciously let out a burst of exclamation.
Goalkeeper Yan Junling's reaction in front of the goal was not unpleasant, and the fingertips of his right hand also touched the football. However, the trajectory of the football was very strange and full of power, so it did not completely change the trajectory of the football. The football directly hit the upper left corner of the goal, which is the South Stand fans. upper right corner.
After scoring the goal, Tang Zheng raised his arms and apologized to the home fans. Other Real Madrid players did not have this psychological burden. They celebrated selflessly amidst the huge cheers created by the Real Madrid fans who came with the team.
The score became 2:2. Real Madrid reversed Dortmund with a total score of 4:3, and there were two away goals in hand. This means that there is no overtime for the two teams. Dortmund must reverse the situation and advance to the semi-finals of this season's Champions League. Score two goals in a row without conceding a goal in the remaining time.
The possibility exists, but the probability is low.
Real Madrid must be very impressive after scoring two goals in a row. It may not be too difficult to score goals. The difficult thing is whether they can keep the goal intact...
Tang Zheng is in excellent form, and Cristiano Ronaldo's form is also on the rise. It is obviously very difficult to restrict them on the defensive end.
Thinking of this, the Dortmund fans in the stands looked particularly pessimistic.
Tang Zheng contributed three goals in two rounds. Dortmund didn't know whether Tang Zheng could score in the remaining game time.
Judging from Tang Zheng's current state, it seems very possible.
While the Real Madrid players celebrated the goal, Dortmund coach Klopp did not fall into endless sadness. He nervously discussed with his assistant Buvac how to play the next game.
The game ended with 2:2 and Real Madrid will definitely advance to the semi-finals of the Champions League this season. If they want to advance, they must score two goals in a row.
On the premise of scoring two goals in a row, the defense must also ensure that the defense does not lose the ball.
The live broadcast camera switched to face Klopp and Buvac. German Sky commentator Marcel Leif shook his head and said: "There is no doubt that Dortmund is now in a desperate situation. They must win in the remaining two games." It is very difficult for them to score two goals in ten consecutive games and not allow Real Madrid, who are in great form, to score."
At this point, he changed his voice and looked at Tang Zheng who appeared on the broadcast screen and said: "Three goals in two games is enough to show that Tang is in a hot state.
So it is undoubtedly a fantasy for Dortmund's offense to open a gap in the middle, but Dortmund has no choice. In front of them, it is nothing more than whether to die heroically. I think Jurgen Klopp knows how to choose..."
Tang Zheng apologized to the home fans. After a few seconds of silence, the home fans did not lose their grace. They responded to the apologetic Tang Zheng with applause.
Countless Dortmund fans in front of the TV really love and hate Tang Zheng in the picture. They love because his contribution to Dortmund cannot be erased with time, but they hate because his two goals are likely to lead to the defending champion. Dortmund was eliminated from the Champions League semi-finals.
The on-site director showed a slow-motion replay of the entire goal. Tang Zheng's direct free kick with his left foot was groundbreaking. The power and angle were perfect. It was 35 meters away from the goal and the shooting foot was not his dominant foot, so it was extremely rare. High, countless commentators enjoy the quips.
When the game restarted, Dortmund clearly strengthened their offensive. Real Madrid scored two goals in five minutes with Tang Zheng's brace. The total score between the two sides became Real Madrid's lead of 4:3. As long as they did not concede two goals in a row in the remaining game time , can directly advance to the semi-finals of this season's Champions League, so Dortmund... has no choice.
He Wei, the commentator of Central 5, was still enthusiastic and in a high mood: "If the whole game ends with a score of 2:2, I can already guess what the headlines of the European mainstream media will be like tomorrow. The 19-year-old youngster in the first half Lu Liang scored twice to help Dortmund lead by two goals, and Tang Zheng scored twice in the second half to help Real Madrid equalize the score. It is not an exaggeration to say that the outcome of this game can be decided by Chinese players!"
"Ouch-ouch——"
Time passed slowly, and the Dortmund fans at the Westfalenstadion temporarily forgot their worries and reinvested in creating a fanatical atmosphere at home.
A minute later, Dortmund requested a substitution again.
Aubameyang replaced Lu Liang, who has been relatively sluggish in recent times.
Klopp's substitutions and adjustments did not mean to burn the boat. It is not difficult to see that he is still worried about the team's defense. After all, the connection between Cristiano Ronaldo and Tang Zheng is powerful, and a slight mistake may cause another goal to be conceded.
Therefore, this substitution is more to maintain pressure on Real Madrid's wing defense. The real threats to Real Madrid's defense are Lewandowski and Reus. ,
"Ouch-ouch——"
At the same time that Lu Liang left the field, a deafening roar sounded above the Westfalen Stadium.
British Sky TV commentator Martin Taylor looked at Lu Liang who was receiving applause from the audience and said with a smile: "Nowadays, Chinese players are really springing up like bamboo shoots. At such a young age, Lu can actually face Real Madrid in the top Champions League." He scored two goals, and his future is immeasurable. The only pity is that his physical fitness seems to be very unsatisfactory, otherwise Dortmund playing at home would pose a greater threat to Real Madrid..."
※※※
Ancelotti did not make targeted substitutions for Dortmund because he had paid attention to Aubameyang who was in the youth team when he was coaching AC Milan. The most attractive thing about Aubameyang was his proud figure. Speed, but other than speed, he's good for nothing.
In a top competition like the Champions League quarter-finals, speed alone is not enough.
as expected!
Dortmund, who replaced Aubameyang, did improve in terms of offensive speed, but Aubameyang's cross after using the speed to break through was speechless.
The cross, which was almost unmarked, went directly to the feet of Schmelzer, the left back on the other side. Otherwise, Dortmund's rare attack would have to retreat to the half-court and defend again.
Of course, Klopp had other considerations when replacing Aubameyang, because Lu Liang's physical fitness was a shortcoming, and it was already difficult for him to persist at the 70th minute of the game, otherwise Klopp would not have easily replaced him. Lu Liang made a huge contribution in the two rounds.
In the blink of an eye, the game reached the 75th minute, and Real Madrid also made its second substitution adjustment of the game.
Casemiro replaced the slightly tired Xabi Alonso to strengthen the defense in the middle.
Many commentators can't find fault with Ancelotti's substitution adjustment. Real Madrid, with two away goals in hand, has every reason to choose defense at the Westfalenstadion, the home of Europe's number one devil. After all, this city Real Madrid still has the league and Copa del Rey finals to complete this season, so it is understandable to focus on stability.
But it would be a big mistake to think that Ancelotti's substitution adjustments are for comprehensive defense.
Casemiro, who returned to Real Madrid last summer, doesn't have many functions. He is good at defense and knows how to protect the football when the team attacks. His presence can indirectly liberate Tang Zheng and allow Tang Zheng to free up more space to attack.
As time passed by, Dortmund put more and more people into the attack.
However, in many cases, more people participating in the attack may not necessarily lead to results. Real Madrid's defensive players were well selected and protected each other well, without exposing Dortmund to too many defensive loopholes.
In addition, Real Madrid's positional offense and quick counterattack were so effective that Dortmund's front and backcourt players were not thinking in the same way.
The front wants to attack, the back wants to defend.
As a result, there was a gap between Dortmund's offense and defense, which is commonly known as the disconnect between the front and backcourt.
Klopp stood in front of the home team's coaching bench with a headache. He didn't know how to make adjustments.
On the bench, except for Mkhitaryan and Shaheen, there are no extra options at all.
In terms of selection, Klopp doesn't know how to decide.
Mkhitaryan's state has fluctuated too much, and Shaheen is injured, so he is not suitable to come on as a substitute.
But... time waits for no one. Under the advice of his assistant Buvac, Klopp finally chose Mkhitaryan and replaced Schmelzer with Mr. Armenia.
Dortmund's customary 4-2-3 formation was subsequently transformed into a three-centre-back system, also known as a 3-5-2 formation, which increased the number of attackers in the center and the side offensive.
Judging from Mkhitaryan's effect after playing, it is indeed good, but the double center composed of Lewandowski and Aubameyang lacks tacit understanding, and the two often rush for the same point, which makes the home fans depressed.
※※※
The game reached the 80th minute, and the scoreboard still showed the score 2:2. The fanatical atmosphere at the Westfalen Stadium showed no downward trend. It was obvious that the home fans still had hope for Dortmund.
During this period, Tang Zheng's performance was as amazing as ever, whether it was offense or defense, he was everywhere.
Cristiano Ronaldo, who was in improved form, also had two threatening shots, but they were resolved by Yan Junling, who was in excellent form.
Dortmund's offense also created several threats. Lewandowski and Royce almost scored goals with their shots. However, Casillas was not willing to be at a disadvantage despite Yan Junling's outstanding performance. He made consecutive outstanding saves. , trying to keep the city gate intact.
Time is getting shorter and shorter. Dortmund head coach Klopp frequently stands in the home team's coaching area and makes inflammatory body gestures towards the players on the field. However, Real Madrid is not a weak team, but its overall strength is stronger than Dortmund.
Even though Dortmund wants to strengthen their offense, they have no choice but to have limited capabilities.
Lewandowski is in hot form this season and is somewhat isolated in this game. He has a feeling that Dortmund currently lacks teammates like Tang Zheng, making it difficult to provide him with enough support.
Following a header that went over the crossbar, Lewandowski had the idea to join a better football club.
It is true that he can enjoy the highest treatment in Dortmund, and the Westfalen Stadium also has the best fanatical atmosphere in Europe, but the team lacks ambition and cannot satisfy his pursuit of a higher competitive level.
If Tang Zheng is still in the team this season, maybe defeating Real Madrid will be effortless, right?
In the 86th minute, Real Madrid made the last substitution adjustment of the game, and Khedira replaced Modric.
The signal of this substitution adjustment is very obvious, that is, a full retreat to maintain 2:2 until the end.
Central 5 commentator He Wei nodded and said: "There are more than three minutes left in regular time. Ancelotti has no problem choosing a safe defense. Next, they have the domestic league and the King's Cup final. There is no need to worry about the so-called Victory comes at an immeasurable price.”
Real Madrid retreated completely and Dortmund dominated the game.
Gundogan controlled the rhythm of offense and defense, Mkhitaryan and Gotze organized the frontcourt attack. Lewandowski received more and more support, and his shooting opportunities increased accordingly, but he also began to receive more attention. .
Lewandowski is unable to defeat four hands with two fists, and it is difficult to find opportunities in the gaps between people.
Not long after, the time reached 90 minutes of regular time. The fourth official held up the electronic sign indicating four minutes of injury time. Dortmund still did not score a goal, so some Dortmund fans in the stands chose to leave.
There are still four minutes left on the clock. It is obviously difficult for Dortmund to score two goals in a row. It is understandable that the Dortmund fans left the game early.
The Real Madrid fans who came with the team seemed very happy, because the score did not change, which meant that Real Madrid was getting closer and closer to advancing to the semi-finals of this season's Champions League.
Last season, Real Madrid was defeated by Dortmund led by Tang Zheng in the Champions League final and lost the Champions League. Last summer, Real Madrid successfully poached Tang Zheng, and its overall strength became stronger. According to the poisonous milk series of European mainstream media, Real Madrid is very good this season. Possibly win the final Champions League title!
As fans, they are naturally willing to drink this cup of poisonous milk, and they are convinced of it.
In the second minute of stoppage time, Dortmund had the best opportunity to score. Gotze faked a shot and dunked Lewandowski with a penetrating through ball. Ramos and Pepe subconsciously Without even touching the football with his outstretched legs, Lewandowski let the ball go directly into the penalty area to face goalkeeper Casillas.
Just when Casillas didn't know what to do, a familiar face appeared in his field of vision.
Lewandowski raised his right foot, and a leg appeared in his peripheral vision.
Out of instinct, Lewandowski did not take the swing.
The football went beyond the baseline and Lewandowski saw clearly who was coming.
It's... Tang Zheng!
At the same time, Central 5 commentator He Wei shouted: "Beautiful tackle! Tang Zheng fell to the ground and put the tackle down to kick the ball out of the baseline!"
Tang Zheng followed goalkeeper Casillas' outstretched right hand and stood up, turning back and winking at Lewandowski.
Lewandowski looked at Tang Zheng helplessly, he knew...this season's Champions League journey is coming to an end.
Missing the best opportunity to score, Dortmund never created an offensive opportunity that was enough to score. Just four minutes into stoppage time, the referee Clattenberg blew his whistle and declared the end of the game: "Beep~Beep~Beep~ ~”
