Chapter 163: Confession?

Watching the football deviate from the door post, Tang Zheng dragged the refined short hair with his hands regretfully, and couldn't help but scold: "Damn!"

As the game continued, Dortmund's tactics remained the same, which was to reduce penetration in the middle as much as possible, and instead play the ball from two wings, like the English style of play with wide crosses. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Fans who had just turned on the TV and didn't watch the score would have thought that Dortmund were attacking in the final moments of the game, but in fact they were not the case, they were just attacking Villarreal's weakness in the hope of going ahead again.

However, when the whistle blew at the end of the first half, the scoreboard showed that the score remained unchanged, it was still 1:1

Although the home side did not take the lead with home advantage, Villarreal fans were happy with the result.

Throughout the first half, it was fair to say that Villarreal had no advantage other than that goal.

Being able to keep the tie in the game with almost three or seven points of possession was enough to make the home fans feel happy.

During the break, the TV station with the Europa League broadcast rights gave a summary and analysis of the first half at the end of the game, and then speculated on the development trend of the second half.

Whether Villarreal, who is playing at home, will change the trend and turn over as the host, or whether Dortmund, who is a guest, will win the game in one go, these conjectures can cause countless fans to dispute.

On the Chinese Internet, the meager use of online social media, which is becoming more and more frequent nowadays, has a special popularity.

Twitter, which is becoming increasingly popular in Europe and the United States, also has many fans speculating about the game in the second half.

After 45 minutes of the first half, most fans were optimistic about Dortmund, who had an absolute advantage.

Especially in the minutes before the end of the first half, if it weren't for the help of 'Octopus' Diego López, the noisy and dangerous Villarreal goal in front of the goal would have been broken by Dortmund players......

It is worth mentioning that Tang Zheng had a goalmouth cushion shot before the end of the first half, which was directly kicked to the junction of the crossbar and the right post.

Therefore, Huang Jianxiang, a commentator of New Wolf Sports, said with regret: "According to the end of the first half, ending the first half with Dortmund leading is the most reasonable result, but many times luck has a great impact on the game, otherwise Villarreal would not have scored a goal in the only two shots in the first half......"

"Dortmund played their tactical level and I believe that in the second half they will be almost the same as in the first half, with their pride of fighting spirit and tactical execution, they dominate the field and win the game in one fell swoop......"

Sky Deutsche Deutsche Telephony, ESPN, BBC and other internationally renowned sports television stations all talked about the past first half during this time period.

And the fifteen minutes of the intermission passed quietly.

In the second half, Yibian fought again, and the atmosphere of the game created by the Love Song Stadium was still frenetic.

Many times, small courses have the advantage of small courts.

I don't know if the home team was influenced by the fans, and the momentum they burst out with was a world away from the first half.

German Sky commentator Marcel Leif was surprised: "Is this really the Villarreal team in the first half?"

The performance of the home players is directly linked to the performance of the fans in the stands, so the tsunami-like chanting continues.

The Dortmund players, who were still comfortable in the first half, gradually felt more and more pressure, even Tang Zheng.

He has been able to beat Musacchio, Marchena and others many times to complete the header attack or defense, and this time, he found that ...... Don't take advantage of anything.

Of course, they just felt a lot of pressure and were not embarrassed, and Dortmund still created chances with high pressing and attacking from both wings.

However, when the game entered the sixth minute of the second half, no one expected that Villarreal, who had performed poorly in the first half, would overtake the score without warning!

Carney crossed after breaking down the right and Hummels' overhead shot was not wide and the ball fell to Giuseppe Rossi.

The astute Giuseppe Rossi stretched out his foot to stab the ball into the net.

Borussia Dortmund goalkeeper Weidenfeller looked very annoyed, he has never liked to get angry, he rarely yelled at Hummels: "How do you solve the siege? Either push out of the bottom line or out of the big penalty area!"

Hummels was also annoyed by his mistake, so instead of justifying it, he waved his hand helplessly, indicating that he was wrong.

Not far behind him, the Villarreal players hugged each other excitedly.

New Wolf Sports commentator Huang Jianxiang looked at the broadcast camera and shook his head and sighed: "This ...... It's a football game, a lot of times you don't have to play well to change the score, luck hangs, but you can't ignore it......"

'It's a shame that a defensive mistake by Borussia Dortmund caused the team to concede their second goal on the road, and Hummels' mistake shouldn't have been. German Sky commentator Marcel Leif said with a frown.

"Beautiful! It's Giuseppe Rossi again!The equaliser in the first half came from his non-stop cross that caused Dortmund to fail to create an offside!

"Carney's wide break is still sharp, worthy of the old prince of the love song field! Great! I kept talking about him in the game, and he should turn the tide in the number 10 shirt!"

The commentators from Spain were unsparing in their praise.

The goal was a deep source of excitement for the Dortmund players, who launched a fierce attack on Villarreal's goal in the ensuing game time, and seemed to have an urge to smash Villarreal's goal into a sieve.

Hummels, in particular, has a huge sense of guilt for conceding the ball, and whenever he is involved in the front-court attack, he simply does not go back.

Fortunately, Tang Zheng was still relatively calm, and when he saw Hummels running forward, he took the initiative to retreat to make up for the defensive void left by Hummels.

After two minutes, when Hummels' impulse passed, Tang Zheng took advantage of a dead ball opportunity to grab Hummels' right elbow and said seriously: "Have you had a good time?"

"What addiction?" Hummels was a little confused.

"Striker addiction!"

Hearing this, Hummels realized that he seemed to be paying too much attention to the attack in the past few minutes.

Himself, but a centre-back!

"Forehead ......"

The embarrassed Hummels scratched the back of his head and whispered, "I'm going back." ”

"Wait. Tang Zheng pulled Hummels again, and said: "It's normal to lose the ball, don't care too much, do a good job of defense, and believe in your teammates in front." ”

"Hmm!" Hummels nodded firmly.

Head coach Jurgen Klopp had long noticed that Hummels was too fond of getting involved in the attack, but he didn't stop it because he saw Tang Zheng take the initiative to retreat to make up for Hummels' vacancy.

Besides, Hummels' forward insertion caused a temporary brain short-circuit in the Villarreal defender, which did not stop it.

It wasn't until Tang Zheng took the initiative to pull Hummels, and then Hummels ran back to the central defender position, that Klopp nodded with satisfaction.

Tang Zheng, the captain, did a good job.

Hummels is very capable, but sometimes he is not consistent and impulsive.

Tang Zheng was aware of the initiative to retreat to make up for the vacancy, and did not directly reprimand loudly, but waited until several waves of attacks before communicating.

It's a great way to do it.

Next, the two sides made substitution adjustments respectively.

It can be seen that neither Villarreal nor Borussia Dortmund want to end the game with this scoreline.

A 2-1 win at home and a second-leg trip to Westphafranc Lun will be a lot of pressure for Villarreal, so try to score as many goals as possible with plenty of time at home.

Two goal difference, can be more reassuring.

Jurgen Klopp feels that Dortmund cannot say goodbye to their unbeaten record in all competitions this season.

If you could, win away as much as you can, it would be much less pressure for the second leg and it would also cause Villarreal to be too stressful, and then it would be an opportunity for the team to play at home......

Both sides of the game are not very old and belong to the ranks of young marshals, so the substitutions and tactical choices are relatively bold.

Just do it!

The neutral commentator in the commentary bench said, "This is the game we are looking forward to seeing!"

"Whew-"

The atmosphere of the game at Love Song Field became more and more frenetic as the game entered the white heat.

There was a huge burst of hysterical cheers from the home fans, who wanted to see the team extend the score in one fell swoop and kill the game.

Although the number of Dortmund fans who came to the Love Song Stadium with the team was scarce, the advantage was that their lung capacity was large enough and their perseverance was able to suppress the outbursts of the home fans' outbursts at a certain time.

The game has entered a white-hot stage, and the movements of both sides are not precise enough, and it is inevitable that some people will turn on their backs.

Fortunately, the referee made a decisive decision and issued two yellow cards in a row to stabilize the situation, so that there was no player clash in the first leg of this Europa League semi-final.

※※※

In the 75th minute, Dortmund made the last substitution, Sven Bender replaced Grosskreutz, Gotzela side, and Tang Zheng moved forward to play the front midfield.

This substitution adjustment made Dortmund's attacking mode fully open.

Anyone who has studied Dortmund's attacking system knows that Tang Zheng, who has come to the midfield position, can show all his attacking talents.

Garido was ready to make tactical adjustments according to the third set of schemes, and just waited for the dead ball.

It's just that a lot of times football games are changing in an instant, and time waits for no one.

Klopp's substitution adjustment can be said to be immediate, and Tang Zheng, who came to the forward midfield position, received the ball from the attacking left rib Gotze in a very comfortable position.

Senna was experienced, and his right hand was attached to his body and crashed into Tang Zheng.

However, Tang Zheng was very prepared, and took advantage of the force of Senna's collision to pick up his right foot and hit the door directly!

Tang Zheng's choice was beyond everyone's expectations, so he was a little unprepared.

Who would have thought that Tang Zheng would be able to complete the shot after being violently collided by Senna, and he was full of power, and he was the most hated thing for the goalkeeper.

Tang Zheng, whose body center of gravity was unstable, gradually fell to the ground, but his attention did not leave the football.

At the same time, Marcel Leif shouted violently: "-Shoot!!"

In the face of Tang Zheng's sudden cold arrow at around 26 meters, Diego López was obviously unprepared, and his hand was not ready for football.

Although the angle is not very tricky, it is full of power and sticks to the turf.

The soccer ball has a forward acceleration!

Diego López's pupils shrank suddenly, and he struggled on tiptoe with his left foot, falling to the ground and throwing himself to the ground.

Since his hand was not ready, he just tried to keep the saved ball from rolling into the goal.

As for which area the ball throws and rolls to, that's not something he can influence.

"Get rid of—"

The Valencia TV announcer suddenly gasped and exclaimed.

"Whoa, whoa—"

The hearts of the Villarreal fans at the Love Song Stadium suddenly rose to their throats, their eyes widened, and their souls were almost frightened.

Barrios, who has had ups and downs this season, stuck his position early at this time, so that Marchena behind him did not dare to make much movement, and when the opponent finally chose to pull the shirt, he decisively fell to the ground and stretched out his right foot to poke the ball.

German Sky commentator Marcel Leif turned his disappointment into surprise and raised his voice again: "- Lucas Barrios!"

The ball crashed into the net before Diego López could make a second reaction.

2:2!

"Oh~ a follow-up shot from Barrios!" Huang Jianxiang, a commentator of New Wolf Sports, said excitedly: "Although Tang Zheng's long-range shot did not break through Diego López's ten fingers, his high-quality long-range shot caused Diego López to get out of his hands!"

Marchena and Musacchio were also raising their hands to signal that Barrios was suspected of offside, but the linesman did not give any signal, meaning the goal was valid.

The Dortmund players don't care about that, they just know that their side has scored!

Finally...... Equalize!

"Damn!" said the Spanish national TV commentator angrily: "Villarreal's backline is also a little problematic, Marchena's distraction caused Barrios to get stuck in position first, if he can run two more steps smartly, I don't think this goal will exist." ”

"There is a world of difference between 2:1 and 2:2 at home......

After conceding two away goals at home, I didn't have any bottom in my mind when I thought about going to Westphalia Lun, the home of Europe's No. 1 Devils, in the second leg.

The live broadcast camera shows the coach of the home team, Juan Carlos Garrido.

It was clear that he had made a mistake in his tactics after Villarreal took the lead.

Even if you face a mad dog team like Borussia Dortmund at home, you have to focus on stability.

If it weren't for his desperate desire to extend the scoreline, Borussia Dortmund's equaliser would not have happened.

So instead of roaring at the players on the field, he squatted in the technical command area of the home team's coach with a frown.

What's next?

Intensify the offense?

Or do you admit your mistake and re-defend?

After nearly half a minute of contemplation, he finally chose to strengthen the attack while ensuring that the defensive line did not have problems.

Home 2:2

The second leg a week later was not without chances.
