After coming off the court, despite his efforts to restrain his emotions, the frustration on Dede's face was still easily visible.

Before Dede walked to the locker room, Yan Jing walked over and patted Dede on the shoulder.

Dede raised his head and looked at Yan Jing with guilt in his eyes.

"Boss, I'm sorry ......"

"It's not your fault, everyone knows it's not something you can control, Dede. Yan Jing interrupted Dede, his tone becoming firm and confident compared to Fang Cai, "Trust me, trust your teammates, we're going to Athens - so, it's me who should say sorry." Even if you can't play, I'll take you to Athens. ”

Dede was silent for a moment, raised his hand and rubbed the corners of his eyes that were a little red from self-blame and loss, and nodded towards Yan Jing.

"Thank you, Chief. I'm sure we'll win the game. ”

Sending Dede away, as soon as Yan Jing turned around, he found that all the players on the bench were staring at him, and immediately retracted his gaze as if nothing had happened after he found out.

Everyone is concerned about Dede's situation...... Yan Jing didn't know whether to laugh or not, no matter what, it relieved his nervousness a little.

On the pitch, the referee awarded Manchester United a direct free-kick due to a foul on Dede just now.

Dede's departure forced Dort's attacking line to retreat to fill the void in Dede's position, so everyone was crowded into the box.

Cristiano Ronaldo, who was in charge of the free-kick, observed the next position and fired a powerful volley straight towards the goal.

The ball flew in an elegant arc towards the top corner of the goal, but Thuram accurately judged the landing point and grabbed the position and pushed Ronaldo's shot off the pitch.

On the sidelines, Coentrão was writhing around the fourth official, hurrying for his final warm-up before taking to the field.

The deadball was so fast that before Coentrão could put his foot on the heat, the fourth official held the substitution sign aloft.

"Borussia Dortmund request substitution!No. 2 Coentrão replaces No.8 David Silva!" Martin commented on Yan Jing's substitution, "Replacing a full-back with a full-back is not Yan Jing's original intention. Because we had already seen Suarez warm up on the sidelines, but now he is back on the bench. With one man missing, it is important to have a solid backline, and it is Dortmund who are still leading the way. If you can hold on to this score until the end, it's definitely acceptable to give up a good attacker. ”

Coentrão stepped onto the pitch and was a little nervous about the sudden unexpected opportunity.

Coupled with insufficient warm-up, this caused him to make a mistake on his first touch, almost allowing Ronaldo to break the ball.

Fortunately, Coentrão reacted quickly and before that passed the ball back to centre-back Thuram.

The experienced Thuram didn't go wrong, and although Coentrão's return pass was not expected, he was able to catch the ball with unmistakable accuracy to avoid the United striker's press.

"Oh, it seems that the newcomer Coentrão has not yet adapted to the rhythm of the pitch and his first pass was almost cut off by Ronaldo. Dicker is a little worried about Coentrão's form, "Dortmund's starting choice at left wing-back this season has been Dede, and Coentrão has not started much. Coming off the bench at such a crucial moment and taking on such an important position, if they can't keep up in time, Dortmund's backline can be dangerous. ”

Apparently Ferguson also noticed that Coentrão had not yet entered the situation, and after that, United began to bomb in the direction of Coentrão in turn, which put Coentrão under pressure.

Under such a surging offensive, Coentrão inevitably made a few mistakes.

On one occasion, Rooney narrowly missed a goal, but Thiago Silva's desperate save forced a change in the trajectory of the ball, which prevented it from finding the net.

Fortunately, after leaving Dede, the whole team focused on defense after receiving the order of Yan Jingzhi, and Yaya Toure often came to solve the urgent needs of Coentrão, but did not let Manchester United score.

Resisting the onslaught of the first ten minutes or so of the game, Coentrão began to gradually adjust to the rhythm of the game.

It was still a bit difficult to deal with Cristiano Ronaldo or other attacking staff at Manchester United, but the mistakes were reduced a lot, and with the assistance of Yaya Toure, it was still able to hold on.

"Ryan Giggs tried to get the ball into the Dortmund penalty area, and Wayne Rooney turned back to catch it!" Dicker squeezed his sweaty hands, "Thiago Silva pushed the ball off the touchline—"

United didn't stop breathing, Rooney immediately went over to throw the touchline ball, and Cristiano Ronaldo was ready to step up to catch it.

Coentrão did not dare to relax, and he immediately came to Ronaldo's side to block the opponent's catch.

By this time, the game had reached the 80th minute, and the score was still 1-0 at home to Dortmund Manchester United.

From time to time, his exclamation can be heard in Nick's apartment in New York, USA, when his mobile phone starts ringing, and he still waits until he has finished watching Dortmund's attack before getting up to get his phone.

Nick glanced at the caller ID on the screen, it was Andy Rubin, his partner who had created Android with him.

He picked up the phone casually and hurriedly turned back to watch TV.

"Andy, I'm not available right now, you'll call later...... Damn! This goal almost went in!"

"What ball? Nick, what are you doing?"

"What do you think? Didn't I tell you about Borussia Dortmund's Champions League semi-final today. ”

"Okay, okay, of course I remember, you also said you were going to take me to the scene......"

As soon as Andy Rubin mentioned it, Nick suddenly became energetic.

"yes, or this month! I'll take you to Athens to watch the final! Dortmund can definitely make it to ......the final."

"I don't want to interrupt you, but Nick, I have to say, can you just let your Dortmund go for now? ”

"Huh?" Nick suddenly became wary when he heard that Rubin's tone didn't sound like a joke, "What's going on?"

"Steve probably bought our phone as well, and he was angry about the situation and wanted to talk to us. ”

"What?" Nick snapped out of his stunned state, "Steve, Steve Jobs?"

"That's right. ”

"He's in a hurry to see us growing so fast?"

"Not only that, but have I told you before that I had a lot of contact with Apple when I was working at Google? ”

"Did, so?"

"At that time, they were already working on smartphones, and both the development plan and the investment were much better than the resources that Google gave me. At that time, I didn't know you at all, and it wasn't a little bit behind them in various processes. At that time, Google proposed a cooperation plan to Apple, and we also knew a lot of creative plans for Apple's mobile phones. ”

"......" Nick stared at the TV screen as Rooney rushed all the way to the Dortmund penalty area with the ball, his heart was in his throat, he paused for a while, until Weidenfeller pounced on the ball under him and breathed a sigh of relief, "He thinks we copied?"

"I don't know what he really thinks at the moment, but my friend from Google called and said it would be better to see him once this weekend. ”

"Okay, should I go with me too?"

"Steve is definitely interested in you, because in addition to Apple's creative part, we have a lot of ideas for our phones this time. ”

"Actually, I want to go back to Dortmund this weekend...... But since you've said it all, I'll walk with you. ”

"Thank you for your understanding, then I won't bother you to watch the game-"

As soon as he hung up, Nick heard the ESPN commentator already say that the game was over in five minutes.

"Oh! this young player from Dortmund who came off the bench...... Well, Portuguese Fabio Coentrão defused a crisis!

Hearing the stumbling introduction of the ESPN narrator, Nick couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Since ESPN is so rich, why not spend money to invite a few good commentators from Europe? Listening to Americans explain football is really not a pleasant experience, and I must recommend that they invite a professional to come when they have the opportunity in the future.

In the final moments of the game, the physical strength of the players of both teams was close to the limit, and they relied on their own willpower to persevere.

Rao is full of energy, Yaya Toure also appeared to hunch over his thighs and pant for breath.

"Nuri, watch out behind you!"

Toure next to Shaheen saw Rooney rushing behind him, and immediately endured the soreness of his muscles and prepared to respond, and raised his voice to remind his teammates.

Shaheen, who had just received a pass from Thuram, glanced back when he heard Toure's voice and saw that Rooney was quite close to him.

He wanted to pass the ball to Toure, who was closest to him, but Rooney didn't slow down much, but his own movements began to slow down.

"Wayne Rooney broke the ball at the back of the Dortmund side!

On the sidelines, Ferguson stood up from the bench at the same time as Yan Jing and looked at Dortmund's half of the field nervously.

After Rooney grabbed the ball, he immediately went to the side and crashed into the Dort's penalty area with the ball, seemingly unstoppable like a heavy tank.

At this moment, Coentrão did not hesitate, following his body's instinct to fall to the ground and shovel towards the ball.

This time, however, he managed to break the ball off the touchline first, allowing the Westphalian Stadium to start cheering him on.

"Oh! Crucial tackles! Coentrão is getting better and better than when he first came on!"

Yan Jing breathed a sigh of relief and secretly gave Coentrão a thumbs up.

"Well done, Fabio. ”

Thuram, the captain of the field, walked over and grabbed Coentrão on the ground, patted him on the back vigorously, and affirmed his performance.

Coentrão wiped his nose and smiled heartily, "That's what I'm supposed to do, Captain!"

Every Manchester United fan's heart is anxious, but time doesn't stop flowing because of their prayers.

The fourth official held up a sign on the sidelines for three minutes of stoppage time.

"Attack! What are you waiting for?!"

At this point, even the seasoned Ferguson apparently couldn't sit still, and he roared from the sidelines for the United players to attack with all their might.

United's players responded, with goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar on the verge of jumping over his own half of the pitch when attacking.

It's just that no matter how hard they try, there is no hope of prying open the door to Dortmund.

Aside from Coentrão, who is getting better and better, the defensive duo of Thiago Silva and Thuram have been quite solid, defusing United's surging attacks on a number of occasions.

From the crowd in the stands, there was an uplifting sound from the phalanx.

"Oh my God, we're going to Athens in a minute!"

This sentence obviously made the surrounding fans boil.

Fans raised their arms, one by one, chanting for the location of this year's Champions League final.

"Athens!Athens!Athens!"

Yan Jing secretly clenched his fists and stood on the sidelines expressionlessly without saying a word, but the sweat on his forehead was dripping down his face.

It's almost over, but why does a minute pass so slowly?

"This is the last chance for Manchester United to attack!" Van der Sar had already rushed to Dortmund's half, Scholes forced the ball to Giggs!'

At this point, the end of three minutes of stoppage time had come to an end, but the referee still did not blow the whistle for the end of the game, as if intending to let United complete the attack.

This caused a lot of discontent among the Dortmund fans, and the boos were immediately transmitted from the camera cameras to the television screen.

"Three fucking minutes is over! Whistle on, stupid!"

Thiago Silva was dripping with sweat as he stood in the way of Cristiano Ronaldo's way to Borussia Dortmund.

'Thiago Silva got on the ground in time to break the ball off the line before Ronaldo could shoot!'

Amid the boos, the referee looked at his watch again, and then raised the whistle on his chest.

Ferguson's face was not good, but he still got up before the referee blew the whistle and walked to the Dortmund bench.

"Yan, congratulations, but don't expect to get my congratulations next time. ”

As soon as Ferguson said this, the referee blew the final whistle of the game, and the Westphalian Stadium was immediately plunged into a frenzied joy.

"I'll work hard for that, Alex, and I wish you the best of luck in the league. ”

Yan Jing shook hands with Ferguson and didn't talk much because he saw the players on the field all smiling and running towards him.

Ferguson also noticed this, and as a loser, he walked away playfully to comfort his frustrated players on the pitch.

Coentrão came on as a substitute and looked like he was still in good shape.

He was the first to pounce and hugged Yan Jing amid the cheers of the fans.

"Boss, we're in the final! Champions League final! I'm not dreaming!"

Yan Jing, who had been nervous for the whole game, finally had a smile on his face, and he was happy from the bottom of his heart for Dortmund's promotion.

Yan Jing rubbed the top of Coentrão's head a few times: "It's all true, Fabio!

The players who had already arrived at Yan Jing's side heard Yan Jing's words and suddenly remembered Yan Jing's mysterious prophecy, and they couldn't help but exclaim.

"We can reach the final of the Champions League this season!"

"Hahaha, that's right!"

Yan Jing let go of Coentrão, and he looked around at the sweaty players, hugging them one by one.

"Guaje, your goal has not been in vain, well done!"

"Thiago, I finally know why you've always wanted to play against Manchester United, today you're a superman!"

"Lilian, if it weren't for you, Dortmund wouldn't be where it is today......"

……

In the end, Yan Jing walked in front of Dede, and he restrained his smile.

"Hey, Dede, look, we won. ”

"Yes, sir. We win, and you can always fulfill your promises. ”

Dede already had a smile on his face, and although there was a hint of regret, he was still sincerely happy for the player's promotion.

'Fabio was really good, especially in the final stages, so feel free to leave him at the back in Athens. ”

Yan Jing paused, but finally laughed.

"In the league we still have to rely on you, and you are still the absolute main force of Dortmund in the next two key games. ”

Yan Jing was always the focus of Dortmund's team, and it didn't take long for him to walk towards Dede, and soon all the players gathered around.

They looked at Dede and comforted Dede, who could not get to Athens.

What's more, like Ribery, who likes to joke, snatched the champagne of Villa, the player of the match, out of nowhere, and poured it directly on Dede's head.

But the next second, Berry was running away.

"Hey!! Frank!! damn it, you stop me!!"

Villa, who was robbed of champagne, was not angry and watched the excitement from the sidelines.

"Come on, Dede, catch him and beat him to death!"

Yan Jing couldn't help but laugh heartily when he saw this scene, and the coaching staff and staff next to him also laughed together.

The yellow flag still flutters inside the Westphalian Stadium, and the whole city outside the stadium is almost crazy.

Almost all the big screens outside were broadcasting the news of Borussia Dortmund's victory over Manchester United to qualify for the Champions League, and even the old man in a wheelchair joined the young crowd in the celebrations.

This scene was captured by a reporter who had just come out of the stadium, and he walked over with the cameraman to interview the excited group of fans.

"I never dreamed we would be in the Champions League final this year! Oh my God, it's unbelievable hahaha!"

"Congratulations, Dortmund this year is unexpectedly good, do you think the biggest contributor is your French striker Ribery?"

The cheers of the group of fans stopped for a moment, they seemed to be lost in thought, and after a while, the old man in the wheelchair was the first to give the answer.

"It's Yan, whether it's Ribery, Villa, or Thuram...... These wonderful players, wonderful victories, all of them brought us!"

It was late at night and there were still crowds of Dortmund fans celebrating the crucial victory.

Scalle came out of the bar with his friends, singing the Dortmund anthem, writhing comically and waving drunkenly at the police car.

The policeman in the car poked out angrily, and when he saw the Dortmund flag they were wearing, he instantly lost his anger, but happily honked his horn and screamed with them.

"Athens! We're going to Athens!"

"Haha, you're right! We're going to Athens for the Champions League final!"

Tonight, Dortmund has a sleepless party. 166 Reading Network
