Chapter 63: The club's first hat-trick

The moment he received the ball outside the line of the big penalty area, Cheng Hai's figure shook to the right, causing the nervous goalkeeper to shift his center of gravity, and then Cheng Hai instantly turned back and broke through from the left.

The goalkeeper is prepared and has spare strength, but he is afraid that Cheng Hai's breakthrough just now is a feint.

However, although he guessed Cheng Hai's breakthrough and immediately swooped back, he still underestimated Cheng Hai's feint proficiency and speed.

Matthews's feint at 20 full value of perfection caused Cheng Hai's movements to be too fast, and even if the goalkeeper was prepared, he couldn't keep up.

Cheng Hai broke through from his left in an instant, and the goalkeeper didn't even catch Cheng Hai's shoes.

Even the goalkeeper broke through Cheng Hai, who chased the ball he came out of the corner of the small penalty area, and the 20-year-old shooting skill sent the ball into the empty goal without any suspense.

In the 78th minute, Cheng Hai scored another goal to complete the brace and help Dortmund lead Capadedi 3-0.

The cheers in the stands were even louder.

With a score of 3-0, the victory was basically sealed, and Capadei's players also gave up their plans to struggle, and the head coach changed two people in a row to prepare for their domestic games.

In the next game, Capadei's players almost gave up attacking, narrowing the formation to the 30-meter area of their own goal to defend tightly, just hoping not to be scored by Cheng Hai again, from a 3-0 victory to a 4-0 slaughter.

However, Cheng Hai did not let them get their way.

Because Cheng Hai, who has just added several skills to full value and obtained new heading skills, is not satisfied with the achievement of scoring two goals.

Not counting the U23 Asian Games youth team competition, Cheng Hai has never scored a hat trick in the senior team professional competition of Dortmund club!

Today, Cheng Hai is very interested in trying to break through.

However, in the case of Capadei's contraction and stubborn defense, Cheng Hai's speed and running advantages could not be played well, but the header skills that had never been shown in front of people allowed Cheng Hai to detonate the entire Westfaren Stadium near the end of the game.

In the previous games, Cheng Hai had never scored a header. Even if he occasionally participates in aerial duels, Cheng Hai's bouncing and heading skills have caused him to lose nine times out of ten.

His point-grabbing technique can only be used to block the position and stop the ball with a full value of stopping the ball, but cannot grab the first point and attack the goal directly with a header.

Cheng Hai's characteristic, all opponents are also researched and well understood.

However, Capadei was clearly the unluckiest today, as they were Cheng Hai's first opponent after adding bounce and header skills.

Although Cheng Hai had already entered the penalty area twice in front of him to participate in the corner kick contest, because the ball did not fall on Cheng Hai's head, he didn't even jump, so Capadi's players didn't know that Cheng Hai's bounce had soared from single digits to 19 and his header technique had become 17.

Therefore, in the 89th minute near the end of the game, Dortmund won another corner kick, and when central defenders Hummels, Subotic, center forward Barrios and others were fighting in the penalty area, Cappadi's defenders had no choice but to assign the tallest defenders to the defenders of these taller Dortmund players.

And beside Cheng Hai, there was only one fullback left who was about the same height as him.

It's not that Capadi's players don't know Cheng Hai's threat, it's just that in the corner kick attack, Cheng Hai's header and ability to fight for the top are relatively not as threatening as Hummels' men.

Therefore, Cheng Hai, who was standing in front of the penalty area, was not eye-catching, and there was only one full-back who was about the same height as him to keep an eye on him, and he was not very attentive.

After all, the previous game videos and the previous corner kick experience show that Cheng Hai basically plays soy sauce in the corner kick attack, unless neither side can withstand it and the ball falls in the penalty area, Cheng Hai may create a threat with his ability to grab points.

But in the previous battle for the top, Cheng Hai's threat was almost negligible.

Not only Capadi's players, but even Cheng Hai's own teammates didn't know that Cheng Hai had increased his header and bounce to a very high level.

After all, Cheng Hai scored the first goal in the course of the game before upgrading to open the "header" skill and adding the two related skills.

As a result, Cheng Hai's teammates did not know that Cheng Hai's bounce and header skills were already very powerful, and Schmelzer, the fullback who took the corner, did not have any interaction with Cheng Hai, but kept watching the running situation of Hummels, Barrios and others on the line of the small penalty area in the middle, and prepared to take free throws.

The interaction between Schmelzer's eyes and gestures with Hummels, Barrios and others confused Capadi's defenders even more, and no one paid attention to Cheng Hai outside the corner of the small penalty area in front of him.

Even the Capadei full-back who was closely guarding Cheng Hai opened up a little distance from Cheng Hai and stood forward a little, preparing to prevent Dortmund's tactical corners.

Including the audience on the field, in this corner kick attack and defense, they did not keep their eyes on Cheng Hai.

The inertia in everyone's hearts made them think that with Cheng Hai's bouncing and heading ability, in the first wave of the competition, there was nothing wrong with him.

Schmelzer then sent the ball away after two steps from the corner.

As a result, Schmelzer's corner kick was slightly lower this time, and the single was not in the middle of the high-ranking players on both sides, but in the front.

Several players from both sides in the middle suddenly rushed forward, trying to grab the front point to attack the goal.

Although there were Cheng Hai and the Capadei full-back in front of the point, everyone didn't care, because looking at the flight trajectory of the ball, even if they jumped, they couldn't reach it.

However, just when everyone raised their legs and rushed forward, they saw Cheng Hai outside the corner of the small penalty area suddenly squatting, his legs suddenly exerted force, and then pulled onions on dry land, jumped up suddenly, and jumped very high, looking higher than many 185cm central defenders.

The key is that the height at which Cheng Hai jumped just blocked the path of the ball's flight.

"This ball will be hit by Cheng Haiding, and it won't leak over!" Several of Capadi's players thought about it in their hearts, and their faces suddenly changed.

The fullback, who was supposed to be closely guarding Cheng Hai, turned his head and saw Cheng Hai jumping so high, and he also realized that something was wrong.

However, no matter how much you realize that something is wrong, it is too late.

He couldn't even jump and interfere with Cheng Hai, so he saw Cheng Hai jump to the highest point, and then meet the ball that flew over quickly, shook his head, and hit the goal with a flick of his head, and pushed the ball to the goal diagonally behind.

Although the header technique with an attribute value of 17 is not very good, in this header attack with no interference at all, Cheng Hai played the best header skill level and controlled the ball within the goal frame.

Of course, this is the only way to go.

After all, the heading technique of 17 is not 20, and in the case of shaking his head at the front point, he can't control the angle at all, and it is already good to be able to put the ball within the range of the goal frame.

But this time Cheng Hai was lucky, and his header flew right into the top corner of the near end.

Although goalkeeper Romanico tried his best to make a save, because the distance was too close and the ball was too fast, even if he touched the ball, the ball still only rubbed on his fingertips, changed the line very slightly, but still flew into the net unswervingly.

At this moment, the entire Westfalen Stadium completely exploded, and countless people stood up in an instant, excitedly applauding and cheering at Cheng Hai, who was running wildly on the court to celebrate, and bowed to him.

On the commentary bench, the commentator of Dortmund City TV saw Cheng Hai jump high in front of the point and put this corner kick into the Cappadi goal, and immediately stood up in shock and excitement, and roared in his loudest voice:

“Toooooooooooooooooor……”

"Hat-trick! Hat-trick! ”

"Cheng Hai scored the first hat-trick of his career!"

"Unbeatable! Omnipotent! Cheng Hai scored three goals and scored a hat trick in more than 20 minutes after coming on as a substitute! ”

"This goal efficiency is unique in the world!"

"Even Gerd Muller, known as the stadium bomber, can't compare!"

The commentator next to him also said excitedly:

"In addition to the hat-trick, this is also the first header of Cheng Hai's career!"

"I don't know if you have noticed, Cheng Hai jumped very high this time, and stopped the corner kick that should have landed a little behind in advance and headed it towards the goal!"

"If Cheng Hai's header this time is not a fluke, then Cheng Hai will have one more offensive means in the penalty area!"

"Cheng Hai's threat in the penalty area is getting bigger and bigger!"

"Dortmund's move to sign Cheng Hai before the season has made a lot of money!"

The narrator's voice is for the TV audience watching the live broadcast in front of the TV, but the audience listens to the voice of the live announcer.

After Cheng Hai scored the goal, the on-site broadcaster also said excitedly in the loudest voice: "In the 89th minute, Dortmund scored!" It was ...... who scored the goal."

The audience echoed in unison: "Cheng Hai!! ”

"It was ...... who scored the goal"

"Cheng Hai!!"

"It was ...... who scored the goal"

"Cheng Hai!!"

Chanted in unison three times in a row, the voice became louder and louder, and finally soared into the sky, expressing the admiration of the more than 80,000 Hornets fans for Cheng Hai at this time.

Cheng Hai's performance can't help but be admired.

The UEFA Cup is a club continental competition in Europe second only to the Champions League, and in such a game, it is enough for someone else to score a hat-trick after 90 minutes of play, but Cheng Hai only came on as a substitute in the 65th minute and scored a hat-trick after playing less than 30 minutes.

As the Dortmund TV commentator put it, in terms of average goal efficiency in terms of minutes, Cheng Hai is even better than the famous bomber Gerd Müller.

This kind of goal efficiency can't help but make people admire and be excited!

Similarly, although it was already the third watch in the middle of the night in China at this time, Cheng Hai's hat trick was enough to make all the Chinese fans watching the live broadcast very excited.

This is not only the first hat-trick of Cheng Hai's career, but also the first hat-trick of a Chinese player in Europe.

Previously, Yang Chen had scored two performances, but there was no hat trick.

Cheng Hai's hat-trick was the first hat-trick for a record-breaking Chinese player in a top-tier European competition.

It is not only a milestone in Cheng Hai's own career, but also a new history of Chinese football in Europe.

Of course, Cheng Hai also knows what his ball means.

Therefore, even Cheng Hai, who had already scored a goal, was quite excited at this time, rushed to the corner kick area along the bottom line, jumped on the billboard, jumped to the back, rushed to the stands, and hugged the fans in the first row through the guardrail.

This is also the first time that Cheng Hai has made such a crazy celebration.

And the fans were also quite excited, constantly hugging Cheng Hai, patting his head and shoulders, shouting his name excitedly, saying words of worship, and worshipping Cheng Hai.

In the end, his clothes were almost ripped off by the excited fans, but fortunately, his teammates rushed over and pulled Cheng Hai out and returned to the court.

Then, Cheng Hai hugged and high-fived his teammates in celebration.

Dortmund's celebrations lasted for most of the minute, and Capadi's players did not stand up to protest to the referee.

They have completely accepted the fate of losing by a big score, and they were completely crushed by Cheng Hai's hat trick, and they didn't even have verbal resistance.

It wasn't until the referee couldn't look past it and took the initiative to intervene that Cheng Hai and the others returned to their own half after the celebration, waiting for Capadi to kick off in the middle circle.

The rest of the game turned into garbage time.

After three minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the match, and Dortmund beat Capadedi 4-0 in the fifth round of the UEFA Cup group stage, achieving an unbeaten record of three wins and two draws, and the points rose to 11 points, continuing to lead the group standings.

After the game, Cheng Hai and his teammates came to the sidelines to interact with the fans to thank him, and Cheng Hai, who scored a hat trick after a month, naturally received the most applause and the biggest screams.

A moment later, the results of another group stage came, and the score of Paris Saint-Germain 4-2 Sevilla was played on the big screen, which immediately detonated the Westfalen Stadium.

Paris Saint-Germain and Sevilla FC won the match, with Sevilla staying in third place with seven points after the loss, while Borussia Dortmund, who won this game, reached 11 points, four more than Sevilla.

In this way, with only the last round of the group stage left, even if Dortmund loses in the last round and Sevilla wins, Sevilla will still not reach Dortmund's points.

In other words, with one round left in the group stage, Dortmund has locked up the top two in the group and successfully qualified ahead of schedule.

The players and fans in the stadium were even more excited and celebrated.

After all, they finally managed to kill out of Group J, known as the Group of Death.

It's not easy.

As for Paris Saint-Germain, although they are three points ahead of Sevilla, they still have not secured a place in qualification.

In the final round, as long as Sevilla win against Borussia Dortmund and PSG lose to Cappadi, Sevilla can eliminate Paris Saint-Germain on goal difference.

Fortunately, the initiative is in PSG's own hands, and in the final round against Capadi, the weakest team in the group, as long as they draw, they can ensure qualification.

After the game, the news that Cheng Hai scored his first career hat-trick after 20 minutes off the bench once again swept the global media.

Because Cheng Hai only broke the 100-meter world record with a time of 9.56 seconds in the 100-meter on the first day, the popularity is high, and this career hat trick is not only reported by the football media, but also by many comprehensive media that have previously reported Cheng Hai's 100-meter world record, which has deepened the impression of Cheng Hai in the minds of fans and media readers around the world.

Cheng Hai's fame has skyrocketed again.

However, the team did not take a holiday, because there were only three days before the next game, and the time was very tight, so the team continued to train.

On December 4, just before the next game, Cheng Hai's height grew another 1cm, reaching 179cm. The weight also increased by 1kg, reaching 72kg.

In the case of full physique, with the increase of height and weight, Cheng Hai's confrontation ability in the penalty area is getting stronger and stronger, and there is a tendency to start developing towards Warcraft.

However, Cheng Hai's size can look deceptive, which is why many opponents ignore Cheng Hai's confrontation ability and are used by Cheng Hai to break through or get stuck positions, and then get a chance to shoot.

The next day, December 5, in the 15th round of the Bundesliga, Dortmund played away against Nuremberg.

Nuremberg are currently 10th in the standings, in the middle of the table, with average strength.

But it's their home stadium and they don't want to lose in front of their home fans.

Knowing that Cheng Hai would play in the second half, they played very hard in the first half, wanting to take the lead in the first half, and then wait for Cheng Hai to come on as a substitute in the second half and defend to the end.

However, the ideas are good, but the strength is not enough to achieve their goals.

Even if Cheng Hai didn't play, Dortmund's offense and defense were still very good, otherwise Cheng Hai would not have won consecutive Bundesliga games when he returned to China to participate in the Asian Games and missed several Bundesliga games, and continued to lead the Bundesliga standings.

Borussia Dortmund is not Cheng Hai's team alone, the strength of others and Klopp's tactical command are quite good.

In the first half of the game, Nuremberg, who had tried their best, not only did not score, but conceded a goal, and in the 23rd minute, Dortmund took advantage of a corner kick opportunity and scored a header by central defender Hummels, who rushed into the penalty area.

Neither side scored again, until Cheng Hai was substituted in the 63rd minute of the second half.

The last game was a League Cup game, and today is Cheng Hai's first Bundesliga game back to the club.

Therefore, Cheng Hai is also full of power.

Although Nuremberg knew that Cheng Hai was powerful and guarded it strictly, Cheng Hai's personal strength was too perverted.

In the 75th minute, when Nuremberg tried to attack and equalize, Dortmund broke the ball and played a quick counterattack, and finally the super-fast Cheng Hai successfully received the straight plug of the forward Shahin to form a single goal.

Cheng Hai scored the first goal with ease.

Cheng Hai, who scored the goal, was guarded more closely by the opponent, making it difficult for Cheng Hai to get a chance to shoot.

However, the result of the defensive force tilting towards Cheng Hai was to neglect the defense against the other Dortmund players and give them the opportunity to shoot.
