Chapter 45: Single-handedly taking on Real Madrid

Borussia Dortmund took the lead twice and Real Madrid equalised twice, allowing the Dortmund fans at home to witness the strength of Real Madrid. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info But this is also very understandable, after all, Real Madrid has 11 Champions League trophies, and their overall strength is indeed much stronger than Dortmund.

Dortmund's personnel changes were swift, with 53 minutes played, with No.13 Guerrero coming on and No.21 Schurrle coming off the bench and coach Tuchel making his first changes.

'Boris, what do you think of this change for Coach Tuchel?' Dicker asked.

"It's a very timely adjustment, Pang is now under the focus of Real Madrid's defense, his playmaking ability is limited, and he needs to have teammates to support him. Schurrle was at the heart of the attack when he was at Wolfsburg, he has good organisational skills, and he can share some of the ......organising pressure of Pang," Rupert analyzed.

After Schurrle came on the pitch, Dortmund's situation changed a lot, and compared to Guerrero, Schurrle was physically stronger and could hold the ball. With a teammate who can hold the ball next to him, the pressure on the fat man has been reduced a lot. The fat man began to use his offensive talents.

With 55 minutes to go, Dortmund organized an attack. Weigel passed the ball to Schurrle on the left flank, and Schurrle organized the attack. Seeing that the fat man was not taking the initiative to take the ball, Kovacic and Modric, who had been in a trap posture against the fat man, finally gave up the clamping defense, and Modric went to mark Schurrle, leaving Kovacic to defend the fat man alone.

Schurrle didn't find an attacking opportunity on the flank, and passed the ball back to Weigl, who in turn passed the ball to Dembele, who then turned the ball to Castro, and after a few back-and-forth kicks, Real Madrid's defensive formation was pulled apart. Castro saw that there was only one defender next to the fat man and passed the ball to the fat man.

As soon as the fat man got the ball, Kovacic stuck it up and didn't let the fat man turn around. With only one Kovacic by his side, the fat man doesn't have to worry about being caught in the trap anymore. One-on-one defense, the fat man is not afraid of any defensive player. The fat man resisted Kovacic and forced him to turn around, and soon squeezed Kovacic behind him.

"Beautiful, Pang pushed off Kovacic's close defence......" Dikel suddenly became excited.

"One-on-one, no one can guard against Pang ......," Rubeut commented.

The fat man managed to get rid of Kovacic's defense and rushed towards the opponent's goal with the ball, at which point Kroos came to help, but it was too late, because the fat man had already gotten rid of the bag defense. Facing Kroos, the fat man changed the line, transferred the ball to the other side of his body, and resisted Kroos, and soon Kroos was also left behind by the fat man.

"It's another one, this time Tony Kroos ......" Dicker was even more excited.

The fat man is not fast to break through without activating the heat flow, but in the case of Real Madrid's formation being pulled apart, the fat man can single out any defender of Real Madrid.

However, Real Madrid will not give the fat man the opportunity to continue to go heads-up, seeing the fat man pass two Real Madrid defenders, Real Madrid central defender Ramos finally couldn't hold his breath, he rushed over quickly, at the same time, Kovacic, who was the first to be passed by the fat man, also caught up again, the fat man faced the situation again, but the fat man didn't want to lose the ball, the fat man gently poked the ball, and the ball rolled past Ramos.

A yellow figure suddenly rushed out, and it was Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who had been ambushing near the Real Madrid penalty area.

“…… Aubameyang's one-on-one ......" Dicker suddenly became agitated.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang had a one-on-one chance, but before he could shoot, Real Madrid's other centre-back No.5 Raphael Varane made a sliding tackle in front of him. Obviously, before Ramos stepped up this time, Varane did not make the previous mistake and made a timely fill-in. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang had no choice but to switch to a volley, but this time it was too powerful and the ball went over the crossbar.

"Oh, what a shame, Aubameyang wasted a one-man chance!" Dicker was disappointed, "Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's shot didn't control well in the face of Real Madrid centre-back Raphael Varane's block, and the ball went over the crossbar......

"Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's skills in front of goal are still not delicate enough!" Rupert was also disappointed, "but it was a very good attack, Dortmund had many people involved, Schurrle was organized in the front, creating one-on-one opportunities for Pong, very good attacking tactics......"

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang didn't have time to regret it and started running back because Real Madrid had already launched a counter-attack. The ball was quickly pushed up front and it was Bale again, who shook off Schmelzer's defence on the left flank and sent in a cross, where Benzema, who was outflanked in the middle, had a chance to shoot, but he didn't have the power to play under the interference of Borussia Dortmund centre-back Sokladis and the ball was eventually confiscated by Borussia Dortmund goalkeeper Burki.

"Real Madrid's attack is still very threatening, 2-2 is certainly not the final scoreline, Boris, what do you think?" Dicker asked.

"I think so, both teams are good at attacking and they will definitely not be happy with the score. However, Real Madrid's defense is better than Dortmund's, but Dortmund is at home, so the final result of this game is really difficult to predict, and it can only depend on the player's on-the-spot performance! Rupert replied.

With 65 minutes played, Dortmund launched another dangerous attack. It is still Schurrle who is organizing, and it is still through a wide range of transfers that have opened up Real Madrid's defensive formation. After the fat man got the ball, he got a one-on-one chance again, and the fat man once again relied on his body to force Kovacic, this time Kovacic made all the small moves, but he still couldn't stop the fat man's breakthrough, and he fell down in the fight with the fat man.

"Kovacic is not Pong's opponent at all in one-on-one defense, and he used a small pull this time, and he didn't have a defensible Pong ......," Dicker commented with a smile.

The fat man continued to break through with the ball, but there was a burst of blowing from the breakthrough behind him, and the fat man quickly transferred the ball to the other side of his body. Bang, a white figure collided with the fat man, and then the fat man realized that it was No. 11 Bell who came to help defend. Bale is noticeably faster than Kovacic, but has about the same strength. After Bell was knocked away by the fat man, he didn't give up and quickly rushed over again. At the same time, Real Madrid's left-back No. 23 Danilo also rushed over, forming a situation of trapping again.

"Real Madrid are defending again, Pang should be passing the ball......" Dicker spoke quickly.

As soon as Dicker's words fell, the fat man passed the ball right behind Real Madrid's left wing-back No. 23 Danilo. A yellow figure suddenly cut in, got the ball and inserted it into the opponent's big penalty area, this time Dembele, who had been operating on the right flank.

Real Madrid centre-back No. 4 Ramos saw Dembele about to shoot with his feet. Rushed to block the eye, but Dembele didn't shoot directly, but lightly dunked the ball back.

"Beautiful escape, Dembele got the chance to face Real Madrid......" Dicker was excited.

However, Dembele's subsequent shot was a big disappointment, the left-footed shot was too low and too powerful, and it was directly put into the anti-aircraft gun.

"Oh my God, it's a shame that the shot didn't hit the woodwork at such a close distance, an incredible mistake......" Dicker was disappointed.

"Great chance, it's a shame to waste it, counting Aubameyang, Dortmund has missed two must-score chances......" Rupert's face was not good-looking.

Everyone knows that in the game against Real Madrid, missing a chance means that, it is simply giving up the victory. Sure enough, after Dembele saw the shot high, he sighed on his back, very annoyed, and then directly covered his head with his jersey, Dembele really had no shame to face the Dortmund fans.

But there is one man who is just as frustrated as Dembele, and that is coach Thomas Tuchel, who has been standing on the sidelines and directing the game. After seeing Dembele miss his chance, Tuchel's coach kicked the water bottle next to him and his disappointment was palpable. A few minutes later, the recovering coach turned again and walked to the bench.

Borussia Dortmund then made another change, with No.22 Christian Pulisic coming on and No.7 Dembele coming on as a substitute for just missed a chance, with Thomas Tuchel making the second change of the game.

'Man, what do you think of Coach Tuchel's personnel changes?' Dicker asked.

'Coach Tuchel kept Dembele on the pitch because he wanted to show his attacking talent, but Dembele was obviously not in good form today, whether it was passing or shooting, it was not very satisfactory, and Tuchel had to replace him. Rupert replied: 'Pulisic is more balanced in all aspects and better defensively than Dembele, so it was a good ...... to make a substitution.

"Boris, did you say that Gotze hasn't had a chance to play yet?" Dicker asked.

"I don't think the chances are slim!" Rupert continued, "It's a see-saw game now, Real Madrid are tough defensively and there are a lot of physical confrontations, so it's not a good time to bring on Gotze. Borussia Dortmund are now relying on Pon's one-on-one chance, and exchanging Götze for Pon is not a wise choice......"

With 70 minutes played, Dortmund attacked again. This time Kovacic was more nervous than ever, going straight around the front defender's receiving line. However, the fat man used flexible movement to get rid of his defense directly.

"Kovacic is probably depressed to death, he can't stop Pang ...... at all" Dicker was very happy.

"Defending around the front is not the best defensive strategy, and Pong, despite his stature, has a great movement, and this defensive strategy will only give Pong the opportunity to receive the ball in the open space...... Rubewt commented.

After the fat man received the ball, he rushed to the Real Madrid goal again. The teammates opened up the formation to create heads-up opportunities for the fat man, and the fat man certainly did not miss it. Seeing that his teammate Kovacic's defense was out of position, Kroos had to come over to make up for it, but Kroos couldn't stop the fat man at all, but he stuck the fat man's straight line and forced the fat man to move to the left.

"Oh, Ronaldo is chasing back, he's going to help defend his teammates......" Dicker was surprised, because Ronaldo usually focuses on attacking and doesn't take the initiative to participate in defense much.

However, the fat man couldn't hear Dicker's reminder, and it wasn't until the fat man felt the wind behind him that the fat man knew that another Real Madrid player had come to defend him. The fat man thought that it was Bale who came to help defend again, but he didn't think that this time he was directly hit by the opponent in the process of protecting the ball. It turned out that it was Ronaldo who defended this time. This is the first time that the fat man has faced Ronaldo physically, and the two have not been able to get a chance to face each other before due to the position problems of the two.

Ronaldo's original intention was to hit the fat man directly, but to Ronaldo's surprise, even if he used all his strength and attacked from the side and rear, he did not hit the man in front of him, but fell down in the reaction force of the collision. Ronaldo sat on the grass, very angry, raised his hands to appeal to the referee, but did not receive any response, Ronaldo had to keep shaking his head to express his dissatisfaction.

This is the worst impact that the fat man has suffered in the physical confrontation with the Real Madrid player. Fortunately, the fat man was prepared in advance, otherwise he would have been knocked over. Cristiano Ronaldo is obviously the strongest of the Real Madrid players.

"The first physical confrontation between the two strongest men, Ronaldo is still not Pang's opponent despite his full strength, and in the physical confrontation, among the frontcourt players of Real Madrid, no one is Pang's opponent one-on-one......" Rupert is exaggerating the atmosphere again.

Real Madrid's players feel like crazy, in the face of Dortmund No. 9's crushing breakthrough, they really have no choice, Dortmund has opened the formation, as long as they go to the pack, there will be gaps in the defense, before Dortmund two consecutive very threatening shots, it is because of this reason. But if you don't defend, you can't do it, which makes Real Madrid's players very helpless.

Eventually, Kovacic gave the answer, and he rushed from diagonally behind and threw the fat man down with a shovel.

"It was a serious foul on the back tackle and should have been red-carded...... Dicker was furious.

"Red card, absolute red card...... Rupert exclaimed.

Dortmund fans at the Signal Park Stadium at Iduna suddenly booed and put pressure on the referee. However, the referee was unfazed and only showed a yellow card to Ivacic. Because the referee watched carefully, although Kovacic tackled from diagonally behind, he did not tackle Dortmund No. 9, but his body brought him down.

The game was in a scorching state, and the referee did not want to change the current situation because of his own decision, so he chose to show mercy and gave Kovacic a yellow card, but the referee gave Kovacic a stern warning and awarded Dortmund a free-kick in front.

"Obviously, the referee of this match showed mercy to the Real Madrid players......" Dicker expressed his displeasure.

"I think this kind of tackle in the back, whether it hurts a player or not, should be punished severely because it's a hurtful move...... Rupert is unhappy.

Even more unhappy than the two commentators was Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane, who was extremely depressed when he saw that Dortmund No. 9 had been single-handing his defenders.

In Europe, it has always been Real Madrid who bullied other opponents in physical confrontations, and no team has ever been able to bully Real Madrid like this. Because Real Madrid's strength is not only manifested in technical tactics, but also in physical confrontation, physical confrontation, technology, tactics, the three are equally strong only Real Madrid, it can be said that Real Madrid is a strong team in all aspects, there are almost no shortcomings, this is the real reason why Real Madrid is strong, and it is also the fundamental reason why they can win the Champions League repeatedly.

Coach Zidane knew that he had to make personnel changes, but he really didn't have a stronger defensive player in his hands. Mateo Kovacic, who has defended well, has been sent on the pitch, Pepe is injured, Marcelo is not in the squad, he is really unavailable.

'If you can't strengthen the defense, then increase the attack!' Coach Zidane took his attention and turned and walked to the bench.
