Chapter 125: Substitution Adjustment

The ball rushed towards the goal like a cannonball, and Kuranyi was lucky that in this unbalanced state, he didn't even think about the angle of the shot, just that he could shoot the ball, and the ball flew to the top left corner of the gate guarded by Valdés, and Valdés couldn't save the ball at all.

The ball went into the net, oh my god, Schalke 04 unbelievably equalised, Kuranyi lay on the ground and watched the ball, he himself didn't expect to be able to shoot it in without losing his balance, and he succeeded.

Stunned on the ground for a moment, he got up from the ground and frantically rushed to the area of the Schalke 04 fans, which was right in the corner area, and he made a great contribution to Schalke 04.

Zhang Yuan also stared at the goal, when the goal was scored, he was also stunned, the equalizer made him a little unbelievable, seeing Kuranyi running towards the area of Schalke 04 fans, he also ran over in ecstasy, numb, finally everyone returned to the same running line.

The Schalke 04 fans in the stands frantically squeezed into the lower stands, shouting, it was not easy, until the 65th minute, Schalke 04 pulled back the score when the situation was not dominant.

Kulanyi's fist, Zhang Yuan rushed up and jumped on Kulanyi's back with an arrow step, Kulanyi didn't look back at this time, and was still circling under the stands of Schalke 04 fans, and the fans stretched out their hands to high-five Kulanyi, and of course, Zhang Yuan on Kulanyi's back.

The fans seemed to be about to break through the security guards to get out of the stands, and the security guards ejected Kuranyi and Zhang Yuan and other Schalke 04 players who came to celebrate from the area, jokingly it was too unsafe.

Kuranyi only felt someone on his back at this time, and Zhang Yuan was still unconscious, he didn't mean to come down at all, he himself got carried away, he didn't realize that he was still on Kulanyi's back, one hand kept waving to the fans, the other hand tightly strangled Kuranyi's neck to prevent himself from falling, and the two feet tightly clamped Kulanyi's waist with their knees.

"Still not down?"

"Ahh

Kuranyi smiled like a flower on his face, stretched out his right hand and hit Zhang Yuan, and hugged Zhang Yuan tightly, "It's amazing, buddy!"

"Haha, it's good you shot him in!"

The two men ran side by side into the stadium and high-fived the other Schalke 04 players in celebration.

Kuranyi scored and Slomka was rightly excited, jumping up from the dugout, hugging Jeveric next to him, and finally equalised, and then he will be more comfortable with his tactics.

Rijkaard sat in the coach's seat and didn't move, such Zhang Yuan was simply helpless, he already had the potential of a superstar, it was not easy to prevent at all, maybe he only had two flashes in the whole game, one in the first half and one in the second half, but it was enough to affect the result of the game.

Alas, he can only pray now that Zhang Yuan will not have such a flash again!

The commentator of the sports station was excited, Zhang Yuan missed a great opportunity in the first half, and the two commentators sighed, thinking that after all, Zhang Yuan was too young and his ability to grasp the opportunity was insufficient.

Zhang Yuan was a lot more active in the second half, the two commentators hoped that Zhang Yuan could shine a little more, and it was best to score, but they didn't wait for Zhang Yuan's goal, but they waited for the assist, He Wei and Tao Wei of course desperately pasted gold on Zhang Yuan's face, 80% of the credit for this goal should be recorded in Zhang Yuan's head, the two sides talked about Zhang Yuan's last pass, and the people who passed in one go were very excited, this was the first time they saw Zhang Yuan in the Champions League to stage a good show of four people, Zambrotta's defense was very difficult in the second half, but I didn't expect Zhang Yuanyi to be bold enough to face the encirclement and interception of the Barcelona four, stirring up the Barcelona backline.

"Beautiful! Goal!" Li Jun pushed Zhang Caiying next to him and shouted happily.

"Which one?" Zhang Caiying asked in a daze when she woke up from her dream by rubbing her eyes.

Tonight is the first game of Zhang Yuan's comeback after a month of hiatus, Li Jun has now completely become a fan, Zhang Yuan's fan, Zhang Yuan's comeback game he naturally has to get up and watch it, this is not counted, he also pulled Zhang Caiying to watch it together, just kidding, you don't even watch the first game of your brother's comeback? Do business tomorrow? What's the matter with business, it's a big deal to close tomorrow morning, and open again in the afternoon!

It is good to say that Zhang Caiying was finally persuaded to do so, and to the surprise of the two, the major media predicted that Zhang Yuan would only appear as a substitute before the game, but he actually started.

However, the lackluster game in the first half Zhang Caiying naturally couldn't wait, and went to dream of Zhou Gong after watching it, leaving Li Jun alone to watch the game.

"Kuranyi!" replied Li Jun.

"Oh, I thought it was Yuan Wa'er, you are so excited!" Zhang Caiying yawned and dreamed of Zhou Gong.

"Look at it, goal replay, you see that Yuan Wa'er is so fierce, he passed the ball to Kuranyi!" Li Jun didn't want Zhang Caiying to sleep, it was boring to watch the game alone.

The TV was replaying the goal just now, and the footage of Zhang Yuan even passing four people was broadcast.

"Yuan Wa'er is a little fierce!" Zhang Caiying finally raised a little spirit.

"That's oh, he's facing Barcelona Oh, the top teams in the world, Zambrotta, Puyol are the strongest defenders, and they can't stop Yuanwaer!" Li Jun said proudly, now he is really a fan, and even knows this.

The Barcelona players on the field were still ignorant, and when they woke up, they all thought that Zhang Yuan was really so powerful, and he basically played several generals in the back line, and the most bitter was Zambrotta, Zhang Yuan was really difficult for him to deal with, it was not a problem that he was not in the state, but Zhang Yuan can basically be called able to break through and pass the ball now, which is the most headache for the defenders.

This time, it was Zhang Yuan who confused the entire Barcelona defense line alone, and in the face of the little-known boy, the Barcelona back line really couldn't be negligent.

Bo Yang lowered his head silently in front, I have to say that Zhang Yuan is really better than himself, Zhang Yuan's performance has stimulated Bo Yang, I must also show results, I don't want to be worse than Zhang Yuan.

It's easy to think about, but it's hard to do, Schalke 04 is pressing on the attack, the back line has a header advantage in the face of Barcelona's attacking combination, as soon as the Barcelona striker gets the ball, Schalke 04 would rather foul a free kick than give the striker a chance to hit the penalty area, Bojan played very depressed, the threat of a free kick is really not a big deal for Schalke 04.

The game restarted, Slomka did not adjust his tactics, and continued to adopt the tactics of high-pressure and high-pressure pressing, many of the players of Barcelona who scored just now were still lingering, and their attention was obviously inattentive, Schalke 04 created a killing opportunity in front of the Barcelona goal, fortunately, Schalke 04, who scored a goal, was still a little worse at grasping the opportunity on the front line, and did not seize the opportunity again.

In the 73rd minute, Rijkaard made a substitution, this time unfortunately replaced Bojan, Bojan is often still in the field of Zhang Yuan, silently running to the sidelines, he played really badly in this game, Rijkaard is estimated to have let Bojan go for this reason.

He was replaced by another youngster, Giovanni dos Santos, who is only 18 years old and still a striker, and Barcelona has too many young talents, who are also rising stars in recent years, but he has a lower ranking in Rijkaard's hands than Bojan.

After Dos Santos came on the pitch, Barcelona's situation still did not improve, and Schalke 04's pressing tactics did not have much effect after the Barcelona players came to their senses.

Zhang Yuan, who is good at breakthroughs, now has no physical strength to make such a breakthrough, during this time he is mainly passing, Yaya Toure received a yellow card for defense, this is the first yellow card in the game, it is really late enough.

Slomka saw that Zhang Yuan's physical strength was no longer good, and he was afraid that he would not be able to support the 90-minute game, so he discussed it with Jevidic next to him, and he decided to replace Zhang Yuan.

In the 80th minute, Slomka made a tactical adjustment, replacing the exhausted Zhang Yuan, replacing Kobiashvili, replacing Rakitic and replacing Grosmuller.

At the same time as the substitution, Slomka also made adjustments to the tactics at this time, adjusted the formation to 442, set up two backs, Jones and Grossmuller, it seems that in the end he chose to defend, the reason why he chose such a reason is that Schalke 04 crazy pressing, many players' physical fitness is no longer good, simply play 442, reduce the threat of the front, the second reason is that there are only about ten minutes left, Slomka is trying to defend to the penalty shootout.

Zhang Yuan's downplay relieved Barcelona's backline, this guy is really too capable, if it weren't for the physical problem, it would really be a headache for the Barcelona backline.

After the game, Slomca gave Zhang Yuan and Rakitic a hug each, both of whom performed well today, with Zhang Yuan contributing a key assist to equalise the score. And Rakitic combed in the midfield, although Barcelona has an advantage, but Rakitic's organizational ability still brings Barcelona a certain amount of trouble.

Rijkaard made another substitution, he replaced Yaya Toure with Marcos, Yaya Toure's performance today was decent, but there was a mistake in the defense of Zhang Yuan, and he rashly kicked Puyol and Thuram in the back.

Of course not, he plans to let Marcos and the Barcelona defenders hold up for a day, while Xavi and Iniesta have to press up and play 120 minutes, sorry, it's a shame.

Xavi and Andres Iniesta both pressed upwards to varying degrees, and Rijkaard did not want 120 minutes to settle the battle, he wanted to use the last ten minutes to change the result and get a ticket to the last four. (To be continued.) )
