Chapter 109: The long-awaited showdown

In the 13th minute of the first half, Dortmund took a 1-0 lead with a sudden violent long-range shot from 25 meters outside the Cheng Hai penalty area.

Seeing Cheng Hai suddenly shoot with his feet outside the penalty area, and hit a powerful long-range shot, sending the ball into Nuremberg, tens of thousands of Dortmund fans in the stands were stunned for a moment, and then suddenly broke out into warm applause and cheers.

At Westfaren Stadium, Cheng Hai had never shot so far away.

Most of Cheng Hai's goals were scored in the penalty area, or hanging shots near the top of the arc of the penalty area on the counter-attack.

Everyone thought that Cheng Hai would become the king of the forbidden area like Van Nistelrooy. Unexpectedly, after Cheng Hai returned to the club after being banned for three games, he improved again and learned to shoot vigorously from a distance.

And this furious power is no less than the famous heavy gunners Gerrard, Frank Lampard and the like, if not surpassed.

No wonder goalkeeper Rakovski couldn't save even without an arc.

Because the speed is too fast and the angle is too awkward, the goalkeeper can't reach it at all.

The Dortmund City TV commentator on the commentary seat also shouted excitedly:

“Toooooooooooooooooooooor……”

"World Wave!"

"Cheng Hai hit a powerful world wave from 25 meters outside the penalty area!"

"Although Cheng Hai scored from outside the box in the first two national team games, we thought it was because of the low level of Asian football."

"Unexpectedly, Cheng Hai also scored a world wave goal in the first game when he returned to Westfalun!"

"Cheng Hai has another blockbuster skill, and his progress speed is really terrifying!"

"Now, whether in the penalty area or outside the penalty area, Cheng Hai can shoot, and the difficulty of defending Cheng Hai will more than double! For Borussia Dortmund's opponents, it is now undoubtedly a nightmare. ”

Indeed, seeing Cheng Hai's goal from 25 meters outside the penalty area, both the coach and the players at Nuremberg were helpless.

Despite conceding only the first goal, they already knew that the game was lost.

Originally, the strength was not as good as Dortmund, or playing away, but now Cheng Hai's strength has skyrocketed, and he has one more skill of long-range shooting outside the penalty area, so how can he play?

Even after conceding the goal, Nuremberg did not intend to launch a counter-attack.

Because they were afraid that they would be washed out by Dortmund with a big score.

There is no shame in losing to Dortmund away, but what I am afraid of is being washed in blood, and it will be a big shame to play a big score like 6-0 and 7-0.

Therefore, in the next game, Nuremberg did not relax the defense at the back and tried to counterattack, they were still putting the bus to defend and defend the goal first.

As for counterattacks and goals, they had no idea at all, and even the strikers retreated to their own half to participate in the defense.

Breaking down dense defense is a problem for any team, even Cheng Hai.

For Cheng Hai, although adding the shooting power to the full value will help him to shoot from outside the penalty area, this is not a panacea.

Because as the distance increases, the goalkeeper's save time is bound to increase.

In addition, as the distance increases, his shooting skills cannot reach the level of pointing and hitting where to hit a penalty, and he will make mistakes himself, and he can no longer shoot at the dead corner.

Therefore, in the next game of the first half, Cheng Hai made three more long-range shots, but only scored one.

The other two feet were deflected off the post and once at a slightly correct angle and were saved by goalkeeper Rakovski.

Despite this, Cheng Hai scored a brace in the first half when the opponent put the bus to defend it, but he still did not disappoint the tens of thousands of Dortmund fans on the scene.

After a 15-minute break, Cheng Hai recovered his vitality.

In the 58th minute of the second half, Dortmund won a corner.

Cheng Hai grabbed the first point in this corner kick attack with his outstanding running position and point-grabbing ability, and then squeezed away the defender and jumped up, grabbed the corner kick sent by Gotze, and put the ball into the goal.

In Cheng Hai's first Bundesliga game of the 2011/2012 season, Cheng scored a hat-trick with two long-range shots in the first half and a header in the second half to give Dortmund a 3-0 lead.

In the 68th minute, when Cheng Hai was replaced, the audience stood up and gave him applause and cheers.

After Cheng Hai went off the field, Nuremberg could finally start a proper counterattack and wanted to score a goal to save face.

However, this thinking ultimately hurt them, and not only did they fail to score, but they were counter-attacked by Dortmund because they pressed the attack.

Even without Cheng Hai, Dortmund is not weak.

In the 82nd minute, it was the counterattack formed after the attack that was broken by the forward pressure of the Nuremberg formation, and the cross from the side of the fullback Grossklöitz assisted Lewandowski to volley in the penalty area to lock the score at 4-0.

In the end, Dortmund beat Nuremberg 4-0 at home and took all three points.

Despite the loss in the second round, after three rounds, there is no team in the Bundesliga that has won all, and the top two teams are only two wins and one loss with 7 points.

As a result, Dortmund is in third place in the standings with a goal difference of six points with two wins and one loss, which is not ugly.

However, for Dortmund, who aim to fight on the third line and want to go further than last season's double, this result is not ideal.

To defend the Bundesliga title, Dortmund will have to work hard in the next games.

The good news is that Cheng Hai's suspension is over, and he scored a hat-trick in his first game back at the club, and added a powerful long-range shot skill from outside the box.

Dortmund's future this season is still very promising.

After the game, the media around the world reported on the match, especially Cheng Hai's hat-trick.

Returning to the club after three bans, Cheng Hai scored a hat-trick in the first Bundesliga game of the season to lead Dortmund to a 4-0 win over Nuremberg! 》

"Two long-range shots broke through the Nuremberg defense, and Cheng Hai once again scored a hat trick to dominate the game! 》

"Cheng Hai unlocks a new skill - powerful long-range shooting, and the speed of progress is amazing!" 》

"The total number of goals in 2011 reached 81, and Cheng Hai was only 4 goals away from Gerd Muller's annual world record of 85 goals! 》

"Hat-trick, 81 goals of the year, Cheng Hai is about to surpass Gard Muller to create a new world record for annual goals!" 》

Scoring 81 goals a year is shocking enough. What's more, Cheng Hai is also approaching Gerd Muller's annual world record of 85 goals, and it seems that it is only a matter of time before it is surpassed. What's more, Cheng Hai has made rapid progress and unlocked new skills for powerful long-range shooting, and countless media and fans around the world are paying great attention to Cheng Hai, looking forward to witnessing the moment when he surpasses Gerd Muller and sets a new annual goal record in world football.

As for the battle between Gundogan and his club Nuremberg, which was expected before the game, there was no stir at all after the game, and almost no one discussed it, which made Gundogan also breathe a sigh of relief.

The transfer players are afraid that the media will forcibly create conflicts between them and their former clubs, and now everyone's focus is on Cheng Hai, which is the best for him.

Therefore, even if he has just joined the team, Gundogan also expressed his heartfelt wishes for Cheng Hai's achievements.

However, with the arrival of the draw ceremony for the group stage of the Champions League for the new season, everyone's attention has gradually shifted.

After all, the UEFA Champions League is the football competition that everyone cares about the most in non-World Cup and non-European Championship years.

This Champions League group stage draw ceremony will not only draw the top 32 group groups for the new season, but also conduct an award ceremony for last season's Champions League, and judge last season's Champions League best team, best players and so on.

It's a pity that this has nothing to do with Cheng Hai, he participated in the League Cup last season, whether it is the best team or the best player, it has nothing to do with him.

However, he and his coaching teammates still want to go to Monaco.

Instead of going to the Champions League group stage draw ceremony, you will attend the 2011 UEFA Super Cup the day after the group stage draw ceremony, where last season's UEFA Cup winner Borussia Dortmund will face last season's Champions League winner Barcelona to determine the 2011 European champion of champions.

Cheng Hai said that he was looking forward to this game.

It's not just a matter of experience and skill point rewards, but also a head-to-head showdown with Messi.

In 2009 and 2010, Messi won the Ballon d'Or for two consecutive years and became a world-class superstar.

And Messi's age is also quite young, only 22 years old when he won the Ballon d'Or for the first time in 2009.

At this age, some domestic college students have not yet graduated and are still in school!

Messi has already become a superstar in world football, and he can be described as young and promising.

And the rise of Cheng Hai will inevitably be compared with Messi.

At the beginning, no one believed that Cheng Hai could be compared with Messi, thinking that Cheng Hai could sign Dortmund and be lucky enough to play in the Bundesliga.

Unexpectedly, as time went by, Cheng Hai's talent and progress speed became more and more terrifying, and he won the Asian Games champion/Golden Boot/best player, Asian Cup champion/golden boot/best player, Bundesliga champion/golden boot/best player, League Cup champion/golden boot/best player, and European Golden Boot in the first season of football.

With the new season winning the German Super Cup, becoming the annual treble, and gradually approaching Gerd Müller's annual world record of 85 goals.

Even if Cheng Hai has not yet shown himself in the Champions League, Cheng Hai has been mentioned to be on a par with Messi and Ronaldo.

The direct collision between Cheng Hai and Messi in the European Super Cup will undoubtedly be the most anticipated game in European football in 2011.

Whether it is Messi, the two-time winner of the Golden Ball, who led the Universe team Barcelona to easily defeat Dortmund and Cheng Hai and stabilize his position, or the 19-year-old Cheng Hai led the Bundesliga youth army Dortmund to defeat the Universe team Barcelona and become the king of kings in Europe, both the media and fans are very much looking forward to it.
