Chapter 97: Record Crusher

When Cheng Hai equalled Gerd Muller's record of 40 goals in a single season, Werder Bremen's players became more defensive about him.

They are really unwilling to be used by Cheng Hai as a record-breaking background board.

has been tied by Cheng Hai, and everyone has no choice but to do their best to prevent Cheng Hai from continuing to score goals and create a new record on them.

However, sometimes, real luck can't be stopped, and today may be worthy of Cheng Hai's senior day.

In the case that Cheng Hai is strictly guarded by the whole team of Werder Bremen, Cheng Hai alone can usually attract the defensive attention of two or three people on the other side, and sometimes even as many as four people at the same time to encircle and defend Cheng Hai alone.

This will allow the other Dortmund players to get more chances to attack and shoot.

In the 38th minute, when Cheng Hai ran in the penalty area and pulled the side, he took away two of Bremen's main defenders, resulting in an empty defense in the middle.

So, Nuri Shaheen, who was dribbling the ball, did not pass the ball out, stepped on two bikes with the ball, broke through the opponent's back, and then smashed into the penalty area.

Originally, Shaheen was going to enter the penalty area and dodge the gap to shoot himself.

Unexpectedly, the full-back who rushed over from the side didn't think about it in a hurry, so he gave Shaheen a flying tackle.

Shaheen collapsed, and although he was not injured, it was the defender who was booked by the referee and awarded a penalty to Dortmund.

When the referee took out the yellow card and pointed to the penalty spot, the defender who made a flying tackle on Shaheen in the penalty area woke up like a dream and quickly complained to the referee about Shaheen's fake fall.

But it's useless at this point.

The referee saw it quite clearly and the penalty was so firm that it was impossible to take it back.

Borussia Dortmund were awarded a precious penalty opportunity.

When the commentators saw that Shaheen was tackled and the referee awarded a penalty, everyone became excited:

"Foul, Werder Bremen defender made a tackle on Shaheen in the box."

'The referee awarded a penalty and gave the defender a yellow card.

'Borussia Dortmund got a penalty.'

"Will Cheng Hai take the penalty for this ball?"

"Once Cheng Hai scores this penalty, he will surpass the record set by Gerd Müller in 1971/1972 with a total of 41 goals, setting a new record for the most goals scored in a single season in the Bundesliga."

"Let's wait and see."

There is no doubt that, as the commentator and all the reporters and fans guessed, Shaheen conceded the penalty to Cheng Hai.

For Cheng Hai, penalty kicks are the easiest and most sure way to score goals.

It's the same this time.

Although Cheng Hai also knew that this penalty would allow him to surpass Gerd Muller and set a new Bundesliga single-season goal record, it made him a little nervous.

But full confidence in the system made Cheng Hai even a little nervous, and there was no mistake.

Cheng Hai only went through a simple run-up before kicking the ball into the bottom left corner of the valve.

Although goalkeeper Weese pounced in the right direction, Cheng Hai's penalty angle was too awkward, and he couldn't get it in the end, so he could only watch the ball hit the inner post in the air and then bounced into the net.

In the 39th minute, Cheng Hai scored a penalty kick created by teammate Shaheen Breakthrough into the goal of Werder Bremen, helping Dortmund to take a 3-1 lead away, and at the same time, he also completed another hat-trick and improved his league goal this season to 41 goals.

This figure officially broke the FIFA official certification of the Century Golden Boot, bomber Gerd Müller set a single-season goal record of 40 goals in the Bundesliga in the 1971/1972 season, setting a new Bundesliga single-season record for the highest goal in a single season.

The moment Cheng Hai scored the ball into the Bremen goal, thousands of Dortmund away fans who came with the team suddenly broke out into warm and huge applause, screams and cheers.

Other Werder Bremen fans also gradually joined in the applause, and more and more people came, and finally almost everyone in the stadium stood up and applauded Cheng Hai's new record of 41 goals.

The Werder Bremen players on and off the field also looked at Cheng Hai, who was pressed on the ground by his teammates to fold Arhats to celebrate, and felt respect.

Even Werder Bremen, the opponent of this game, played the words "Cheng Hai, 41 goals, a new record in the Bundesliga" on the electronic screen of the opponent of this game, paying tribute to Cheng Hai's great achievement.

As for the commentators of the TV stations of various countries in the commentary seat, they had already stood up one after another the moment the ball flew into the net, and roared in the loudest voice frantically:

“Tooooooooooooooooor……”

“Gooooooooooooooooal……”

"The ball is in!"

"The ball has gone in!"

"Cheng Hai's penalty has scored!"

"Cheng Hai scored this penalty!"

"Cheng Hai scored his 41st Bundesliga goal of the season, breaking Gerd Müller's 39-year-old record of 40 goals in a single Bundesliga season, and creating a new record for Cheng Hai himself!"

At the same time, Cheng Hai also equaled Gerd Muller's single-season total goal record with 67 goals in a single season for the club.

"This is the moment that belongs to Cheng Hai!"

"Great shooter, incredible genius!"

"18-year-old Cheng Hai has created an amazing miracle!"

"He became the man with the most goals in a single season in the Bundesliga!"

"Let us offer applause and respect to Cheng Hai with the highest respect!"

Whether it is Dortmund or Werder Bremen's players and fans, they all applauded and paid tribute to Cheng Hai.

They have witnessed a new Bundesliga record, witnessed the birth of a new king.

Cheng Hai was surrounded by his teammates and celebrated for nearly a minute before the referee took the initiative to persuade them to end the celebration and restart the game.

In the following minutes, neither side scored again.

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

Werder Bremen, who were only two goals behind, still had a chance, so they didn't give up and stepped up their attack in the second half after making a substitution at half-time.

And they did.

In the 53rd minute, after a series of exquisite crosses, Bremen sent the ball into the Dortmund penalty area.

Striker Pizarro received a pass from a team-mate in the Dortmund penalty area, dodged a shot through a smash and sent the ball into the Dortmund goal with a half-turned volley.

Werder Bremen leveled the score at 2-3 and were only one goal behind.

This time, the morale of the Bremen players was greatly boosted, and they continued to strengthen the attack, wanting to make persistent efforts to equalize the score.

Unexpectedly, less than 5 minutes after Bremen scored this goal, in the 57th minute, Cheng Hai scored again.

It was an amazing long-distance run.

In Werder Bremen's corner kick attack, Cheng Hai retreated to the penalty area to participate in the defense, and successfully grabbed the first point to push the ball out of the penalty area to clear the siege.

Then Dortmund launched a quick counterattack, and Cheng Hai himself rushed to the midfield with the fastest speed without the ball.

At this time, after several passes between teammates, the ball was already at the feet of Shahin.

After seeing Cheng Hai run out of space, Sha Xin made a diagonal pass and sent the ball to Cheng Hai's feet.

At this time, Werder Bremen had as many as three defenders back in front of Cheng Hai, but two of the defenders were defending other players, and only one person was blocking Cheng Hai's way.

One person's defense is naturally not much of a threat to Cheng Hai. Although the defenders who had just defended Shahin in the middle were hurrying to this side, it would take time after all.

After receiving the ball, Cheng Hai just made a simple Matthews feint in the process of sprinting with the ball, and broke through the defender in front of him.

Although the other party immediately turned around and followed, wanting to stop Cheng Hai, Cheng Hai's physique stuck him diagonally behind him, unable to interfere with his dribbling.

Then, when the central defender who came over to make up for the defense next to him was not in place, Cheng Hai kicked the ball out, and then suddenly exerted his strength, and rushed over before the opponent blocked the way.

Cheng Hai directly used his speed to pass the central defender who came over to make up for the defense, and killed Werder Bremen's penalty area.

However, in the process of connecting the two, Cheng Hai was always affected by a little speed, and the third defender also made up for it diagonally and stopped in front of Cheng Hai, who chased the ball again.

But the tactics of adding fuel one by one are not a problem for Cheng Hai.

Cheng Hai shook off the last defender with a sudden oxtail in the run, and then dribbled the ball to the penalty area.

Starting from receiving a pass from teammate Shaheen in midfield, Cheng Hai hit the front of the Werder Bremen penalty area with three people in a row.

Goalkeeper Wiese went out into the big penalty area, but not far from the small penalty line, and seemed to be preventing Cheng Hai's hanging shot.

But with Cheng Hai's archery skills, even if he doesn't shoot, no one can stop the volley.

By changing the direction of the dribbling rhythm, Cheng Hai caused Wiese's center of gravity to shift a little to the right when he dribbled into the penalty area, and then Cheng Hai immediately got up and hit the bottom left corner.

Although Weese made a save, Cheng Hai's shot was too awkward for his hand to go up, and finally watched as the ball rolled diagonally under his palm and then drilled into the goal against the far post.

In the 57th minute of the second half, Cheng Hai scored another goal after a long run to help Dortmund take a 4-2 lead away, and at the same time, he also staged his first senior in the official match of Dortmund club.

At the same time, Cheng Hai also surpassed Gerd Muller's single-season club record of 67 goals set in 1971/1972 with a total of 68 goals in a single season.

As a result, the senior detonated the Wesha Stadium again.

The fans, who had already given him a standing ovation for his record-breaking 41 goals, gave him a standing ovation, cheered and screamed again, bowing down to him as if he were a god.

The commentators even climaxed collectively on the commentary seat:

"Oh my God, happy senior!"

"Senior !!"

"Cheng Hai has scored again!"

"After scoring a hat-trick to break Gerd Muller's single-season Bundesliga scoring record, Cheng Hai was not satisfied!"

"In the 57th minute of the second half, Cheng Hai scored again, staged a big four, and broke Gerd Muller's single-season club total goal record with 68 goals in a single season!"

"This is the first senior win of Cheng Hai's club career, and it was scored away against a Bundesliga powerhouse like Werder Bremen."

"Those who said that Cheng Hai scored the most hat-tricks in a single game and couldn't compare to Falcao's senior happiness can shut up!"

"Cheng Hai can also stage the senior happiness!"

"Whether it is in terms of the number of goals scored in a single game or the total number of goals, Cheng Hai is completely better than Falcao."

"The club's 68 goals in 43 games in a single season, with an average goal efficiency of nearly 1.6 per game, is enough to be proud of European football!"

"I'm optimistic that Dortmund will beat Porto and win the UEFA Cup and the Bundesliga double!"

"Although Porto has Falcao, whether it is the individual comparison or the overall strength of the two teams, I think Dortmund beat Porto!"

"Cheng Hai is the strongest striker in Europe this season, whether it is Falcao, Ronaldo, or Messi, it can't be compared!"

Cheng Hai, who completed his first senior year and broke another record for Gerd Muller, was applauded by the crowd, including the home fans.

Cheng Hai's performance even conquered his opponents.

Everyone gave Cheng Hai applause and cheers that lasted for more than a minute to pay tribute to him. After the restart, neither side scored again in the following minutes.

In the 67th minute, Cheng Hai was replaced by Klopp.

At the end of the game, Cheng Hai once again received a standing salute from the fans, including those Werder Bremen fans at home, who gave Cheng Hai a reverent applause.

After Cheng Hai got off the field, Werder Bremen could finally rest assured that he would boldly counterattack, not too worried about being counterattacked by Cheng Hai in the backfield.

After all, they are only two goals behind and it is still possible to equalise, so they still have to fight.

However, luck wasn't on the home side's side today.

Until the end of the game, Werder Bremen did not score again. Of course, Dortmund, who is a semi-main and semi-substitute lineup, and is playing away again, and Cheng Hai has already left the field, did not score.

Three minutes into stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, and Dortmund won 4-2 away thanks to Cheng Hai's fourth.

After the game, Cheng Hai broke Gerd Muller's single-season goal record in the Bundesliga and the club's single-season total goal record, and the news of the big four joys swept the screen all over the world.

"In the 33rd round of the Bundesliga, Cheng Hai conquered the Wesha Stadium! 》

"Cheng Hai set a single-season goal record in the Bundesliga with 42 goals, and 68 goals set a single-season total goal record for the club!" 》

"Gerd Muller's 39-year Bundesliga record was broken, and Cheng Hai's 42 Bundesliga goals and 68 club goals in a single season set a new record! 》

"Bundesliga Report: Cheng Hai's club is happy for the first time in his career, with 42 league goals and 68 goals in the club breaking Gerd Muller's two records! 》

"The senior broke two records of Gerd Muller in a row, and Cheng Hai descended like a god to conquer the Werder Bremer Stadium! 》

"Bundesliga goal record, club single-season total goal record, League Cup single-season goal record, Cheng Hai has become a record crusher! 》

In Europe, Asia, the Americas, Australia, and Africa, Cheng Hai's phenomenal performance has attracted the attention and heated discussions of all fans.

"It's terrifying, how did Cheng Hai do it so well?"

"It's understandable to be a senior in the senior year, but 42 goals in 33 Bundesliga games and 68 goals in 43 club games, is this still human?"

'There is a record ahead of him, he scored 23 goals in 14 games in the UEFA Cup, becoming the first man in European history to score more than 20 goals in a single season, and improved Klinsmann's record of 15 goals by a full eight.

"That's not all, there is still a final in the League Cup that has not been played, and Cheng Hai will raise the record to 25 goals, which makes people desperate from now on, and it is impossible to get closer!"

"Cheng Hai has scored more goals alone than most clubs have scored in a season."

"Ronaldo will definitely not be able to catch up with Cheng Hai, unless he will play a big four or even five goals in a single game in each of the next few games, but that is impossible."

"This season's European Golden Boot is also Cheng Hai's."

"I calculated, Cheng Hai debuted less than a year ago, Asian Games champion, golden boot, best player; Asian Cup winner, Golden Boot, best player; Bundesliga champion, Golden Boot, and definitely the best player; The League Cup Golden Boot has a high probability of winning the championship and winning the best player; There are also European Golden Boots, European Golden Boy Awards, etc., which are most likely in Cheng Hai's bag. Then there were all kinds of record-breaking, which became a record crusher. I'm thinking that even if Messi leads Barcelona to win the Champions League this season, the European Ballon d'Or may not be won. Because Cheng Hai has too many champions and the data is too perverted. ”

"Yes! Although the League Cup is not as good as the Champions League, coupled with various records such as the Asian Games, the Asian Cup, and the European Golden Boot, Cheng Hai is unprecedented in personal data, and Messi can't catch up! ”

"Anyway, even if you don't win the Golden Globe Award this year, it will definitely be Cheng Hai's next year! As long as Cheng Hai is not injured, it is certain that he will become a world superstar! ”

"That's not good, what if he really gets hurt? I'll talk about it later, anyway, if this year's Golden Globe Awards don't give Cheng Hai, I'm not convinced! ”

"It's terrifying, Cheng Hai is simply a goal machine!"

In addition to the heated discussion among the fans, there were also media reporters who ran to interview the person who broke the record, Gerd Mueller.

The 65-year-old German bomber Gerd Müller had already learned from the TV that Cheng Hai had broken his two records in a row, and he was not frustrated, but a happy blessing for the rise of his juniors:

"I've held these two records for 39 years, and now Cheng Hai has broken those two records, and it's two records in a row in one race, and I'm happy for him."

"There is no doubt that Cheng Hai is the most talented player of this era. If he hadn't suffered a major injury, I think he could have surpassed me at club level. ”

"It's a pity that the national team is holding him back, if only Cheng Hai could join the German nationality."

"In fact, in my opinion, his only mistake was not playing for the German national team, not playing for Bayern Munich!"

The last sentence is naturally a joke, which shows that Gerd Muller is extremely optimistic about Cheng Hai, and even a little worried about his parent club Bayern Munich, for fear that Bayern Munich will never come out in the era of Cheng Hai.

With the interview of Gerd Muller being reported, his evaluation of Cheng Hai has made Cheng Hai even more sought after by the media and fans.

Gerd Müller believes that Cheng Hai has the potential to surpass his achievements at club level, making Cheng Hai a target for major European clubs.

Although Cheng Hai has not won heavyweight honors such as the Champions League, the Golden Ball, and the World Footballer, he is not yet a superstar, but his age and potential are too advantageous.

Even if the liquidated damages clause has not yet taken effect, some wealthy clubs that are not bad for money have also given birth to the idea of smashing Dortmund with money even if the bid exceeds 100 million, and wants to take Cheng Hai away this summer.

Next, let's just look at Cheng Hai's performance in the League Cup final.

If Cheng Hai can really lead Dortmund to defeat Porto to win the championship and win the Bundesliga and League Cup double, I am afraid that these super giants will flock to the championship more and their determination will be stronger.
