Chapter 164: A Ball Bully Who Is Not a Ball Boss

Bayern Munich, who are two goals behind, naturally very much want to score an equaliser.

But Bayern, which has only three attacking players, Robben, Ribery and Gomez, is indeed a little weak in attack, and often attacks and loses half the ball.

Whether it is dribbling ability or breakthrough ability, as well as speed, physique, etc., they cannot be compared with Cheng Hai.

After conceding a few balls and being counterattacked by Cheng Hai, Bayern Munich's strict defense of Cheng Hai was more tight, especially the trick they invented to predict in advance and intercept Cheng Hai in advance according to his running direction, which did greatly reduce Cheng Hai's threat.

However, Dortmund is not alone in Cheng Hai.

In the case that Bayern has made the strict defense against Cheng Hai predict in advance and intercept and defend, Dortmund's other players naturally get more gaps and shooting opportunities.

So, in the 42nd minute, Bayern conceded another goal.

Although the goal conceded this time was not directly related to Cheng Hai, neither his shot nor his assist, but Cheng Hai's running attracted the attention of a full four Bayern defenders, and then allowed Lewandowski to run out of the gap, receiving a pass from Gundogan and scoring a burst in the penalty area.

Before the first half was over, Dortmund had a 3-0 lead over Bayern Munich, which can be called one-sided!

With a three-goal deficit, no one thought Bayern could change their fate.

The Istanbul miracle is called a miracle because it is so rare.

At the same time, Cheng Hai's physical fitness, running ability, speed, coverage, etc. in the first half also became the object of heated discussion among the commentators at halftime.

"It's amazing! Cheng Hai's running distance in the first half of the court reached 8.37 kilometers, which is longer than the running distance of many players in a game! ”

"You know, Cheng Hai is a striker, not a midfielder!"

"I didn't expect Cheng Hai's physical fitness to suddenly rise to such a good point."

"In addition to the running distance, Cheng Hai made a lot of contributions to defense in this game."

"He used his sudden surge in fitness and speed to cover a vast area from the Bayern penalty area to the Dortmund penalty area, not only helping Dortmund to take a 3-0 lead in attack, but also making Bayern's attack go nowhere."

"Robben and Ribery formed Robben and Ribery's wings, let alone scoring in the first half of this game, almost didn't even hit a threatening shot in the woodwork."

"Bayern Munich's only threatening shot in the first half was a long-range shot from outside the box played by Gomez, but it was too good and was easily confiscated by Weidenfeller, so it was really not a threat."

"However, Cheng Hai was replaced by Klopp after only half the game, so we don't know whether Cheng Hai's sudden surge in physical fitness can support him to play the whole game."

"Today, maybe we can verify it."

As the commentators said, everyone was curious about whether Cheng Hai could hold on to the whole game and complete his first full game in an official match at the club.

This is a completely different defensive difficulty and signal for all Dortmund's next opponents.

Everyone naturally hopes that Cheng Hai will not be able to hold on to the audience.

If Cheng Hai's half-time outburst is just an overdraft and he has to be replaced at halftime, it will undoubtedly be a good signal for Dortmund's next opponents.

And once Cheng Hai can really insist on playing the whole game, it will be a nightmare for any opponent of Dortmund.

Dortmund's coaches and teammates naturally know that Cheng Hai is now physically fit enough to support him to play the whole game.

Whether it was the training in the first two days or Cheng Hai's own answer, it was all let the coaches and teammates know this.

But for Klopp, he also needs to think about the big picture.

With a 3-0 lead at half-time and almost certain to win the title early, Jurgen Klopp was ready to set off smoke bombs for Real Madrid.

He wanted Cheng Hai to be the same as the last game, he was replaced in advance at halftime, and then released a smoke bomb after the game that "Cheng Hai couldn't last until the second half of the run" to mislead Real Madrid and make them mistakenly think that Cheng Hai's physical fitness had not increased much and he couldn't stick to the whole game.

Jurgen Klopp wants to win more of the Champions League semi-finals in this way.

But as a result, when he wanted Cheng Hai to be replaced halfway this time, Cheng Hai objected.

After asking Klopp's plans clearly, Cheng Hai said bluntly:

"The Champions League semi-finals are two legs, and after the first leg my fitness will be exposed."

"What's more, I don't think we need to do this kind of small action when we play Real Madrid."

"Let me finish this game, score more goals, and create more psychological pressure on them."

"At the same time, when it's time to actually compete, even if they know that I'm physically fit and mentally prepared, they can't stop me."

'I'm 100 per cent confident about beating Real Madrid.

Hearing Cheng Hai say this, Klopp was a little unhappy.

He is not a good old man, but a manager with a strong personality and personality, and he makes decisions, let alone players, and even members of the coaching staff rarely dare to oppose them.

It's a pity that Cheng Hai is not an ordinary player.

Cheng Hai has already become a representative figure and superstar of Dortmund, even the team owner has to deal with it carefully in front of Cheng Hai, for fear of offending him.

In case Cheng Hai says something about the club when facing the media, it will definitely be the club that will be sprayed by the fans and the media, not Cheng Hai.

Therefore, even if Klopp is the head coach of the team, he must respect Cheng Hai's opinion.

Cheng Hai has become an existence in the locker room that is not a ball bully but a ball bully.

Klopp also wanted to persuade Cheng Hai to cooperate with his strategic arrangement, but Cheng Hai did not compromise.

For Cheng Hai, it is becoming more and more difficult to upgrade now, and he doesn't want to miss every game and every goal.

In the Champions League semi-finals against Real Madrid, if he hadn't drawn the skill of physical fitness, he might not have had so much confidence and certainty.

But after drawing physical strength and solving this biggest shortcoming, Cheng Hai didn't have any worries.

With so many of his perfect skills, combined with his undead physical fitness, if he can't attack Real Madrid's goal, this system is too useless.

Therefore, exposure is exposure, Cheng Hai doesn't care, he cares more about playing half a half more in this game, scoring at least one or two more goals, and accumulating more experience.

With the system in hand, he didn't believe he couldn't lead Borussia Dortmund to a win over Real Madrid.

What's more, there is no history in the history of football where a three-goal lead has been equalized, the most typical is the miracle night in Istanbul.

Therefore, although Dortmund's 3-0 lead has a high probability of sealing the victory, it cannot be called 100%.

Once Cheng Hai goes off the field and loses the deterrent effect of Bayern Munich, Bayern counterattacks across the board, it is impossible to say whether Bayern will equalize or even reverse the score.

Bayern are a team with a lot of mental willpower and often make big comebacks.

As long as he is there, even if he doesn't score in the second half, he can deter the opponent and make the opponent not dare to attack with all his might, ensuring that he wins this game and wins the championship in advance.

And once he wins the championship, he will be able to complete the system tasks and be rewarded with skill points. You can also win the Triple Crown of the season if you have already won the UEFA Super Cup and the German Super Cup at the beginning of the season, and get an additional random skill reward.

If you draw a useful offensive skill and add it with the skill points used to complete the system task, wouldn't your strength skyrocket again?

Against Real Madrid, he was more sure.

Of course, this reason can't be said to Klopp, Cheng Hai persuaded Klopp with the reason that he was afraid of being reversed by Bayern at half-time.

Cheng Hai's meaning is very clear, that is, to ensure that there are no accidents in the second half of this game, to ensure that Dortmund wins the championship in advance, and the whole team can train and prepare for the Champions League semi-finals in the following time, without worrying about the league.

Cheng Hai's reason sounded very legitimate, and Cheng Hai's status in the team, so in the end, Klopp still made concessions and agreed to Cheng Hai's request, and did not say anything about replacing Cheng Hai.

The other players barely interjected during the whole process, but everyone saw Cheng Hai's status from this incident, and even Klopp was worried about Cheng Hai, which also confirmed Cheng Hai's current prestige and popularity from the side.

Then, after the start of the second half of the game, everyone found out that Cheng Hai was not replaced, and he continued to stay on the field.

This is naturally not good news for Bayern Munich.

Bayern made a midfield substitution, removing a midfielder Timoshchuk and replacing it with a striker Thomas Muller, ready to strengthen the attack.

After all, they are three goals behind, and they are all losses anyway, so it is better to attack aggressively and try to see if they can perform a miracle and equalize.

But it turned out that Bayern's attack not only did not bring them miracles, but instead led them to a deeper abyss.

First of all, after the substitution adjustment, Bayern's defensive strength has weakened.

Secondly, Bayern, who attacked aggressively, failed to break through Dortmund's goal, but often lost the ball and was counterattacked by Dortmund under the interference of Cheng Hai's rushing and rushing all over the field.

In the end, it is Cheng Hai's all-round offensive and defensive capabilities that make Bayern Munich really helpless.

Within minutes of the first half of the second half, Dortmund cut off Bayern's attack and played a wave of quick counterattacks, almost allowing Cheng Hai to break through and create a threat.

Fortunately, Schweinsteiger decisively adopted a tactical foul strategy when Cheng Hai broke through with the ball in the front court, and put down Cheng Hai, although he received a yellow card, but also broke Cheng Hai's plan to break through into the penalty area.

But that doesn't change Bayern's situation.

With the assistance of Cheng Hai running all over the field, Bayern Munich not only failed to attack, but was often cut off and counterattacked.

Although many times because Cheng Hai ran too far back and couldn't participate in the attack, Cheng Hai's physical fitness and speed were too perverted.

As long as Cheng Hai grabs the opportunity to counterattack, he can form a huge threat to Bayern's penalty area and goal, even if Bayern is careful and defensive, it is useless.

In the 58th minute, it was Robben who made a passing error under Cheng Hai's pressure and sent the ball to the feet of Shinji Kagawa, and Dortmund played a quick counterattack again.

This time, Cheng Hai was in a lower position, first by Mario Gotze from the side of the cross, Lewandowski failed to eat the right part in the middle of the battle, the ball fell in the penalty area caused confusion between the players on both sides, I don't know who kicked the ball out of the penalty area.

Just when Bayern's players and fans were a little relieved, they saw that Cheng Hai, who was still defending in the backfield and forcing Robben to make a passing error, had rushed up, and saw the ball landing point and rushed over first, and then opened his arms to jam Schweinsteiger, who also wanted to grab the ball, and made a volley.

Schweinsteiger had already received a yellow card for a tactical foul before, and if he took the card again this time, he would have two yellows and one red, and he would have to be punished directly.

Therefore, Schweinsteiger was stuck on the side by Cheng Hai, and watched him pick up his big legs and make a volley action, but he didn't dare to shovel down from the side to destroy Cheng Hai's shot.

He was afraid of fouls, was shown a yellow card, and two yellows turned into one red and went straight down.

He just prayed in his heart that Cheng Hai's volley would not be on target and not hit the door frame.

He thinks his prayers should work, as it's about 25 metres from goal and volleys are often difficult to hit and high-quality.

However, the final result disappointed him.

Cheng Hai's full value of long-range shots, volleys, archery, shooting power and other skills combined, plus a little luck, allowed Cheng Hai to hit a beautiful volley.

Cheng Hai hit the ball, and the ball changed direction like a cannonball, flying past the head of Gustavo who rushed out of the penalty area, and flew towards the top left of the Bayern Munich goal.

This non-stop volley, Cheng Haidu actually hit a tricky dead end.

Neuer's reaction was not unpleasant, and he made a save as soon as Cheng Hai completed the shot.

However, he couldn't save the ball in the end.

Because Cheng Hai's volley was too powerful, too fast, and too awkward, he was still out of reach in the end, and could only watch the ball fly from the top of his palm against the bottom edge of the crossbar into the corner of Bayern's goal.

In the 58th minute, Cheng Hai completed a hat trick to help Dortmund take a 4-0 lead and completely seal the win.

At this moment, Bayern Munich's players are completely deflated.

With such a big point difference, and Cheng Hai on the field, they couldn't attack and counterattack with all their might, and they couldn't equalize the score.

Next, Bayern can only strengthen their defense, defend Cheng Hai strictly, avoid conceding more goals, and wait for Cheng Hai to go off the field after running out of energy, and then they will counterattack and strive to score a goal to save a little face.

As a result, they failed to even do this little bit of face-saving thought.

Their long-awaited wish to be replaced after running out of energy has not been realized.

Cheng Hai not only was not replaced, but seemed to be more vigorous in the second half, so that Bayern's players were dragged by him and became physically exhausted.

And, in the attack, although Bayern no longer counterattacked much, and focused on defense, making Cheng Hai's offensive opportunities a lot less, but Dortmund is not the only one Cheng Hai.

As a result, when Bayern was concentrating on Cheng Hai's strict defense, in the 73rd minute, Dortmund assisted Mario Gotze to score the fifth goal of the Hornets through Gundogan.

5-0!

Borussia Dortmund lead Bayern Munich 5-0 with less than 20 minutes remaining.

Even if Cheng Hai is off at this time, Bayern Munich will definitely be powerless. Therefore, the Dortmund fans at the scene had already sung the song "We Are the Champions" and celebrated in advance.

In fact, Cheng Hai has not been off the court until this time, and he has made great contributions at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends.

In the 78th minute, a scene made Bayern Munich even worse.

Cheng Hai ran out of the right corner of the penalty area through a quick off-ball run, and after receiving a pass from a teammate, Cheng Hai originally wanted to burst into the penalty area and shoot again.

As a result, when he was about to enter the penalty area, Cheng Hai was pulled to the ground by the panicked Alaba fiercely.

Although the foul was not in the box and there was no penalty, Alaba was shown a yellow card by the referee. Coupled with the previous yellow card, Alaba turned two yellows into one red and was sent off the field directly.

was already weak in strength and behind by five goals, and now he was sent off by one person, and Bayern is even more unlikely to stage any miracle.

On the contrary, Cheng Hai, even if Bayern has been beaten to 5-0, even if Bayern has only ten people left to fight, Cheng Hai has no intention of replacing it.

He's still running around looking for an attacking opportunity.

Although Bayern Munich's retracting defense made the gap at the back much smaller, Cheng Hai's perverted off-ball movement and speed, as well as his fitness, still allowed him to find a great opportunity to shoot in the 87th minute.

He first beat an opposition player on his own from outside the box and then passed the ball as several defenders pounced.

The ball was sent to Gundogan's feet, and Gundogan made a shot on the line of the penalty area, forcing Bayern's players to block, and many people also subconsciously focused on Gundogan to see if his shot would cause a goal.

As a result, who knows, Gundogan did not shoot at all, but faked the real pass.

After Gundogan's ankle fell, he didn't shoot, but passed the ball to the right side of the penalty area.

Everyone looked in the direction of the ball rolling, only to find that Cheng Hai, who had just completed the breakthrough and pass, had already appeared in that position: Cheng Hai and Gundogan completed a wall collision.

Cheng Hai received a pass from teammate Gundogan on the right side of Bayern Munich's penalty area, and before defender Boateng blocked the shooting angle, he used all his strength to volley directly with a non-stop kick and kicked the ball towards Bayern Munich's goal.
