Cheng Hai's goal helped Dortmund regain a 2-1 lead, which of course made the Cologne team playing at home quite unwilling.

As a team in the relegation zone, every point is very important for them, even if it's just a draw.

Therefore, in the next game, the Cologne team was very active in counterattacking and wanted to equalize.

Of course, during the counterattack, they did not forget Cheng Hai's threat, and guarded Cheng Hai's running position more closely.

But Dortmund is not the only one who will score goals.

While paying too much attention to Cheng Hai and wanting to attack the equalizer, it is inevitable that he will be a little negligent with Dortmund's other attacking players.

As a result, in the 90th minute, Cheng Hai took away a central defender in the penalty area to the left lateral run, and Nuri Shahin, who was advancing with the ball outside the penalty area, lit up his eyes and grasped the short gap exposed after the central defender was taken out of position by Cheng Hai, and directly shot a heavy cannon from outside the penalty area, sending the ball into the upper right corner of the Cologne team.

The goalkeeper can't reach the whip and can only watch the ball go into the net.

Shaheen helped Dortmund extend the score to 3-1 and seal the win.

At this time, it was already the 90th minute, and the Cologne team was powerless.

Three minutes later, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the match, and Dortmund won 3-1 away in the eighth round of the Bundesliga, taking all three points.

After the game, with the goal and winning experience of this game, Cheng Hai's total experience rose to 281,600/700,000 at level 19.

At the same time, Cheng Hai's weight has increased by 1kg, reaching 69kg, and he is about to enter the 70 mark.

In the case of full physique, with the increase in weight, Cheng Hai's confrontation ability is getting stronger and stronger, and the threat in the penalty area will become more and more great.

This match between Cologne vs Borussia Dortmund is the first match of the 8th round of the Bundesliga, and the rest of the matches will not be played until the next day.

To Dortmund's excitement, in the same round the next day, Mainz, the top team at home, unexpectedly capsized, losing 1-0 to Hamburg.

So far, the 8th round of the Bundesliga, Mainz and Dortmund are tied for the top of the standings with 7 wins, 0 draws and 1 loss in the same 8 rounds, accumulating 21 points.

But Dortmund have more goal difference than Mainz.

As a result, Dortmund, which was originally ranked second, overtook Mainz on goal difference after this round with the same number of points and climbed to the top of the Bundesliga standings.

In second place is Mainz, who have 21 points, followed by Bayer Leverkusen, Hoffenheim, Hamburg and so on.

As for Bayern Munich, which Dortmund regards as a big enemy, it is still ranked 10th with three wins, two draws and three losses with 11 points, which is still far away from Dortmund.

This season, Borussia Dortmund really have a chance to win the Bundesliga.

As a result, the next few days were full of morale in training and full of anticipation and eagerness for the upcoming UEFA Cup group stage third round against Paris Saint-Germain.

However, for Cheng Hai, in the days leading up to the UEFA Cup group stage with Paris Saint-Germain, there was something that bothered him for several days.

As Cheng Hai's performance is getting better and better, the Chinese media and fans are getting louder and louder for Cheng Hai to be selected for the national team, and the Football Association naturally can't turn a blind eye.

Since Hao Haidong, the weakness of the national team has plagued Huaguo football for many years, and now it is finally possible for Cheng Hai to have such a striker with high goal efficiency, and it is naturally impossible for the Football Association to let Cheng Hai idle.

No matter how strange the management of the Football Association is, performance is always a factor they need to consider.

How do you get the political results?

Just shouting slogans can't fool the superiors, only real wins and championships are real political achievements.

In the case of similar strength, perhaps the human factor can be considered. But Cheng Hai has such a strong strength, if he doesn't recruit Cheng Hai into the team, let alone the public opinion attacks of the media and fans, the superiors will not agree.

Therefore, after some consideration, the Chinese Football Association included Cheng Hai in the national football U23 candidate list for the Yangcheng Asian Games held in November this year, and communicated with Dortmund Club, hoping that the club would release him.

Not only the Asian Games, Cheng Hai also has the Qatar Asian Cup during the winter break.

If Cheng Hai participates in the Asian Games and Asian Cup, he is destined to miss several club games in Dortmund.

Fortunately, the Asian Cup is an international A' level competition, and if the national team is recruited, the club must release it.

However, the Asian Games is not a national football federation A' level event, and the club is not obliged to let it go.

Therefore, the Chinese Football Association must communicate with the club, and the club will release Cheng Hai to win the National Olympic team and the national team and participate in the Asian Games and the Asian Cup.

As a patriotic young man, Cheng Hai definitely wants to participate in the Asian Games and put on the national team jersey to fight for the country.

What's more, the Asian Games itself was held in Yangcheng, and the Huaguo team was at home.

Thinking about the momentum of tens of thousands of domestic fans cheering for themselves in their native language in the stands at that time, Cheng Hai yearned.

Moreover, the level of Asian football is low, and the technical and tactical level of the U23 National Olympic level is even lower, and Cheng Hai still has the desire to lead the National Olympic team to win the championship.

You must know that the Chinese men's football team has never achieved any results in the Asian Cup, Asian Games, and World Cup.

The best result was only the runner-up in the Asian Cup and the Asian Games, but he never won the championship.

With a system plug-in, as the main force of the giant Dortmund in the Bundesliga, one of the five major leagues in Europe, and the striker who ranks first in the Bundesliga scorer list this season, Cheng Hai often fantasizes about leading the national team to win championships in continental and international competitions and win glory for the country.

Therefore, after receiving a call from the Football Association, Cheng Hai naturally agreed that the national team was in need, and it was incumbent on him to respond to the call and fight for the country.

This is also his glory.

Agent Baker naturally agrees with Cheng Hai's decision.

The world's famous world superstars are bound to make a difference in the national team. Otherwise, a player who has no national team performance and cannot get the support and love of domestic fans will not do much.

Especially in a country as big as Huaguo, with so many fans and such a big market, Baker is naturally willing to fight for Cheng Hai for the country, achieve good results, attract more domestic fans to become Cheng Hai's fans, and let Cheng Hai's worth and endorsement fees rise, and Baker himself can get more benefits.

It's just that it's useless for the two of them to be willing, and the Asian Games must be approved by the club.

And the communication between the Chinese Football Association and Dortmund Club is in trouble.

Borussia Dortmund have been in very good form this season and are now at the top of the table, with both the club's management and the coaching staff, led by Jurgen Klopp, aiming to win the title.

Therefore, for non-international A' level competitions, clubs are not obliged to release them, and they are very reluctant to release them.

Especially Cheng Hai, the team's main striker.

Although Dortmund look in good form at the moment, most of the time when Cheng Hai comes on as a substitute, the team is already leading and sealing the win.

But there are no absolutes in the world, and there are also games where the score is behind or drawn, and Cheng Hai scores a goal to equalize or reverse after the game.

Cheng Hai's goal efficiency is definitely a big weapon for Dortmund.

Although Cheng Hai has always been a substitute, he has never started. But everyone knows that Cheng Hai is Dortmund's top scorer and the most indispensable existence.

With such a player, how can Dortmund afford to let him go to the Asian Games and the Asian Cup in a row?

In case of Cheng Hai's departure, the team has a poor record and loses the top position in the standings, who will be responsible?

Therefore, when the news was first received, both the club's management and head coach Jurgen Klopp did not agree to let Cheng Hai return to China to participate in the Asian Games.

After communicating several times to no avail, Cheng Hai became a little annoyed.

At this time, the parents at home already knew the news that the Football Association intended to recruit him to participate in the Asian Games, and Cheng Songquan and his wife were also ready to go to Yangcheng to buy tickets to watch their son's live game if it really happened!

The older generation's idea of winning glory for the country is heavier than Cheng Hai.

If his son can put on the national team jersey and fight for the country, it is undoubtedly a very glorious thing.

Therefore, after seeing on the news that the communication between the Football Association and Dortmund Club was not smooth, Cheng Songquan made a call to Cheng Hai and asked him to take the initiative to communicate with the head coach and the club, he must participate in the Asian Games.

Cheng Hai himself also wants to participate in the Asian Games very much, and his parents want to see him play on the spot, so he has to fight even more.

So, Cheng Hai found Klopp and the general manager of the club, and expressed his strong desire to return to China to participate in the Asian Games.

Speaking of which, everywhere, there is strength to have the right to speak.

If Cheng Hai's strength is not good, the club will not care what Cheng Hai thinks!

But now that Cheng Hai's goal efficiency is so high, neither Klopp nor the club wants to stiffen the relationship with Cheng Hai.

What's more, Cheng Hai signed for free.

If Cheng Hai achieves outstanding results in both club and national team, the price will be higher when transferring in the future, and Dortmund will be able to earn more.

Coupled with Cheng Hai's own strong desire, the club finally relented.

However, the two sides still disagree on the timing of the release.

The Football Association naturally hopes that Cheng Hai will join the training camp as soon as possible, so that he can train more and cultivate cooperation and tacit understanding with his teammates in the U23 National Olympic team.

And Dortmund Club, after looking at the start time of the Asian Cup and the club's schedule, proposed that Cheng Hai needed to finish the back-to-back two-legged League Cup group stage with Paris Saint-Germain before Cheng Hai could report to the National Olympic team.

Naturally, this Football Association could not agree.

Because the start time of the first match of the Olympic team in the Asian Games is November 8, and the second leg of the match with Paris Saint-Germain is November 4, only 4 days apart.

Coupled with the flight and jet lag, Cheng Hai only had time to meet his teammates and train for a day or two before he had to play.

This is simply too hasty.

The Football Association requires that after they announce the final list of participants for the Asian Games on October 26, Cheng Hai will pack his bags and return to China to report, participate in training camps, and prepare for the Asian Games.

Dortmund, of course, did not allow it.

In that case, in addition to the few games that will be missed during the Asian Games, Cheng Hai will miss three more games, and one of them is an important League Cup group stage.

Now that they can release Cheng Hai and let him return to China to participate in the Asian Games, they have already given Cheng Hai face, and if he is released so many days in advance and misses three more games, Dortmund will not do it.

Cheng Hai has nothing to say about this.

After all, he is a player of Borussia Dortmund and relies on the club's salary, so it is inappropriate to blindly ask the club to regress.

However, after checking the schedule of the Asian Games and the club, Cheng Hai thought that he could use dream training to recover his energy and adjust the jet lag, so Cheng Hai persuaded the Football Association to agree to Dortmund's conditions, and he promised that he would not be affected by the game and jet lag, and would definitely be able to integrate into the national Olympic team as soon as possible and play a role.

The Football Association naturally does not believe in Cheng Hai's assurance, they do not believe that Cheng Hai can integrate into the team and play in a day or two.

But now Dortmund is not relenting, and the Asian Games is not an international A' level event, and they don't even have the right to go to FIFA for arbitration.

In the end, the Chinese Football Association could only accept Dortmund's conditions, allowing Cheng Hai to return to China to report after playing the second leg of the League Cup group stage against Paris Saint-Germain on November 4 to prepare for the Asian Games.

The matter is finally settled, just wait for the Football Association to announce the final list of participants in the Asian Games on October 26, and add Cheng Hai's name.

As for the family, Cheng Hai called back and told his parents, so that they could start contacting the Asian Games hotel, game tickets, etc. in advance, and prepare for watching the game on the spot.

If you prepare these things at that time, it will definitely be very inconvenient, and you must prepare them in advance.

As Cheng Songquan, who has worked in Nanyue Province, although he has not watched sports competitions, he is not afraid of these, and there are young people in his relatives, so he can help to do it together.

Cheng Hai can finally concentrate on preparing for the club's competition.

This tournament is very important for Borussia Dortmund.

In the two games against Paris Saint-Germain, if Dortmund does not get a point, it will be very difficult to qualify.

Borussia Dortmund must give it their all.

Before the start of the game, the Westfaren Stadium was packed to capacity, with more than 80,000 fans filling the famous Westfalen Stadium.

As the most attended stadium in Europe, the Westfaren Stadium is full for even the slightest important match.

Paris Saint-Germain won both of their first two games and topped the standings with the strongest group strength.

Coupled with the competition from Serbia, Dortmund really have to work hard if they want to qualify from the group.

At 19:00 local time on October 21, 2010, with the referee's whistle, the third round of the 2010/2011 UEFA Cup Group J Dortmund vs Paris Saint-Germain match officially began.

Although Paris Saint-Germain is the stronger side of the table from the results of the first two games, Dortmund and the factor of playing at home make the two teams actually about the same strength and evenly matched.

Therefore, in this game, the two sides are playing back and forth, but they have not been able to break through the opponent's goal.

In the first half of the game, apart from a yellow card for Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Thien, neither side achieved anything.

When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half, the score was still 0-0.

After a 15-minute break, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

Borussia Dortmund, who are playing at home, will have to try to win this game.

If you can't win at home, do you expect an away win and then get the crucial points to qualify from the group?

Therefore, after the start of the second half, Dortmund stepped up their attack and gradually gained the upper hand in possession.

In the 51st minute, one of the starting wing-backs suffered a minor injury in a scramble, and Klopp replaced Mario Gotze.

As the darling of Westfalun, Götze's appearance drew applause and cheers from the fans in the stadium.

Gotze didn't disappoint either.

Less than five minutes after coming on the pitch, he cut inside with a wide break, causing the opposing defender to foul him in a hurry and knock him down in the box.

Götze was not injured and the referee did not show a yellow card, but the key was that the foul was committed in the box.

Gotze won a penalty for Borussia Dortmund.

At the moment when Götze was tackled in the penalty area by the opposing defender, Klopp's eyes lit up, and he immediately shouted to Cheng Hai on the bench: "Cheng Hai, go on the field and take a penalty." ”

Klopp then immediately communicated with the fourth official that Dortmund wanted to make a substitution.

The fourth official, with the referee's consent, allowed Dortmund's substitution request. On the 9th, he replaced the striker Le Tale, who rarely made a start.

Cheng Hai actually didn't even warm up, and he came on as a substitute at this time, and the rest of the game was too early, Cheng Hai definitely couldn't play the whole game, and Klopp's substitution was a little risky.

But it can't be helped, this game is too crucial to be lost. finally got a penalty, Klopp didn't want to be kicked away by others, so he could only immediately replace Cheng Hai, who had a guaranteed penalty goal rate.

The fans in the stands naturally knew that Cheng Hai was replaced at this time, and he was placed on high hopes by Klopp in order to come up and kick a penalty.

Therefore, everyone shouted Cheng Hai's name and cheered him on, hoping that he would take this penalty to help the team take the lead.

Cheng Hai walked into the penalty area, took the ball from Gotze, put it on the penalty spot, and then waited for the referee's whistle to allow the penalty.

Although Cheng Hai is not as well-known in France as in Germany, as an opponent, Paris Saint-Germain's goalkeeper Eder must have studied Cheng Hai and knew that his shooting skills were very exquisite.

Therefore, seeing that after Dortmund won the penalty and Cheng Hai was immediately substituted to kick the penalty, Eder felt very nervous and moved back and forth on the goal line in an attempt to interfere with Cheng Hai's vision.

But Cheng Hai was not affected in the slightest.

When the players on both sides were ready and the referee blew the whistle for free throws, Cheng Hai took a breath, glanced at Elder and began to run.

The more than 80,000 fans in the stands held their breath.

On the court, I saw Cheng Haizhu running a few steps, and then standing with his left foot and a volley with his right foot, he pumped the ball to the upper right corner.

Although Eder had judged the right direction, he was still out of reach in the face of this shot that went straight to the corner, and he could only watch the ball flash in front of his eyes and fly into the net against the underside of the crossbar.

In the 56th minute, Cheng Hai came on as a substitute to take a penalty kick, and a shot straight to the corner sent the ball into the goal of Paris Saint-Germain, helping Dortmund open the scoring and lead Paris Saint-Germain 1-0.

The fans in the stands immediately let out earth-shattering cheers to celebrate Cheng Hai's goal.
