Chapter 440: Give Me the Ball, or It's Too Late
Lin Yi rolled his eyes, didn't speak, and knocked the ball away. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Aubameyang received the ball and swept it back, passing to Mechtaryan on the outside of the circle.
After Mechtaryan got the ball, he wanted to take it with him, but thinking of what Lin Yi said at halftime, he paused his feet and finally passed the ball out.
In fact, he originally wanted to organize, but after thinking about it, the head coach also wanted to tell them not to control the ball and try to find opportunities to counterattack, and he didn't say any more arrangement.
Klopp, who was watching the game on TV at home, shook his head slightly, this club, if it weren't really so desperate, was in a hurry to erase my brand from the team, leaving Kaka to make the team's midfield like it is now.
Mechtaryan's passing didn't make much of a difference to the team's midfield, and he did well as a blue-collar worker last season, but he still showed his timidity when he was shouldering the responsibility of playmaking in midfield alone.
Tuchel paced back and forth on the sidelines, and assistant coach Kyle felt dizzy as he watched on the bench.
Barcelona seemed to have taken care of Iniesta's physical condition, Messi began to drop back a lot to get the ball in the second half, and Neymar's performance on the wing was also more active, and his continuous breakthroughs made Piszczek very uncomfortable.
As Barcelona's possession pressure became stronger and stronger, Dortmund's formation was also pressed further and further back.
In addition to Reus, Lin Yi and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang also dropped back to participate in the defense.
Andres Iniesta's possession of the ball is decreasing, but the threat he creates continues unabated, and every time he sends the ball forward, it will make the Dortmund backline feel uncomfortable.
Longerak also had a very extraordinary performance today, Suarez's shot at the edge of the penalty area was hit by his single punch, and then in the corner kick, Pique had a very solid head on the goal, and he held the ball directly.
The stalemate between the two teams made Lin Yi's physical fitness decline very quickly, I don't know when he started, in addition to becoming a sharp blade in the attack, he also needed to limit the opponent's offensive top players in defense.
This kind of consumption can only make his physical burden greater. After all, this kind of work of being both a father and a mother is really not so easy to do. From physical strength to energy, it is not something that ordinary people can withstand, that is, Lin Yi is now young and good at decompressing himself psychologically, coupled with hard training and physical energy, so he can complete this task to this extent.
On Barcelona's side, Messi did not miss the ball between the retreat organization, and went directly to tear Dort's backline.
Although Hummels won the title against Lionel Messi in the previous World Cup, that doesn't mean the Germans can really limit the Argentine champion.
Conversely, Messi is now very comfortable with Hummels after sanctioning his international teammate Jérôme Boateng in the Champions League semi-finals last season.
As the minutes ticked by, Enrique and Tuchel were both a little nervous.
Enrique is nervous because his team has been unable to play for a long time, and he is desperate for his players to make a breakthrough.
As for Tuchel's nervousness, what he asked the team to do was to defend and counter-attack, but now the team is clearly only defending, counter-attacking? I still can't see it at all, because Lin Yi is defensive, there is no way to settle down most quickly in the process of counterattacking.
As for Mechtaryan and Castro, as soon as they got the ball, they were like headless flies, and they didn't even know what to do.
Coupled with the fact that Barcelona's two full-backs always dropped back in time, Reuss and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's counter-attacks were ineffective.
When Lin Yi once again stuck Iniesta in one-on-one, but failed to stop the opponent's pass, he couldn't help but look up at the time. The game has been going on for 70 minutes, and if it goes on like this, it will definitely be even more disadvantageous for Dortmund, although Barcelona's substitutes are not very strong, but their ability to control the situation of the forward trident is too strong. It is unrealistic to expect teammates to be able to defend against them, and in the face of such an opponent, it is likely that the whole game will be hard to defend, and in the end, it is just an omission that leads to a full game.
Looking at the opponent's position again, Lin Yi, who was more reclaimed to the midfield, waved at Royce and gestured.
Seeing Lin Yi's gesture, Royce did not hesitate at all, and resolutely retreated back and completed a change of position with Lin Yi.
Within 30 meters of Dortmund's goal, there is now a possibility of being an area of high risk of accidents, whether it is Rakitic's long-range shot or Messi's free kick, plus Neymar's sudden breakthrough, or even Suarez's powerful impact.
Without Lin Yi's interference by Iniesta's side, the Barcelona captain seemed to be liberated, getting rid of Castro with superb croquettes, and then when he dribbled the ball to the right, he stuffed the ball with his right foot to his left side. Once again, the ball went straight through the defence and fell to the feet of Neymar, who had kept Piszczek in his back.
Neymar kept at his feet, took advantage of the momentum to accelerate past Piszczek behind him, and dribbled into the Dortmund penalty area.
Piszczek was powerless to do anything about it, and in the midst of such a chase, he realized that he was really unable to keep up with the new Brazilian king.
Past Piszczek, Neymar suddenly twisted his body and used his very smooth left foot to pass the ball to the middle of the box.
After Barcelona introduced Suarez, they added an offensive option such as a wide cross, although Suarez is not very tall, but after all, he has reached 1.8 meters, not to mention that he also has the spirit and running ability that ordinary players do not have.
It was as if now, the moment Neymar passed the ball, he quickly twisted his body and ran back around Subotic.
Such a turn to get rid of it was very fatal, because he accelerated to a position where he could easily reach the football, and Neymar's pass was just right, just running there.
Subotic hurried to make amends, and Hummels was ready to rush over to help Langlak block the door.
Suarez also took a look at Dortmund's defence when he headed it over, and then headed in one of the most difficult to defend headers.
The ball flew over Subotic's shoulder, bypassing Longlak's outstretched hands and not being blocked by Hummels.
Just as the ball was about to fly over the goal line and into the goal, a foot stretched out from the side and blocked the ball.
Sven Bender!
The defender, who has always tried to play the role of a scavenger, may not be as good as the captain Lin Yi of the Tianzong Wizards in one-on-one defense, but he has never forgotten his responsibility.
At the critical moment, he hooked Suarez's must-have goal out of the goal, and this kick not only blocked the football, but also kicked the ball out of the penalty area, leaving Messi, who was waiting in the box to find an opportunity to make up for the goal, in vain.
Sven Bender's kick landed outside the Dortmund penalty area, and the moment the ball flew out, Lin Yi from behind the center circle rolled over and rushed forward. Behind him, it was Reuss, who had completed the cross-switch with him, who grabbed the landing point of the football.
Royce grabbed the ball first, stretched out his foot, and drove the ball to the front without any adjustment. Find Lin Yi.
Pique and Mascherano felt that the situation was a little bad when they saw Lin accelerate forward, but the two of them reacted and wanted to chase after it, but they were still a step slower.
Lin Yi's acceleration and sprinting ability are not inferior to Aubameyang, and at the moment there is no intention of calculating, and Pique, who is very fast, has not been able to catch up with him.
Since there is no hope with people, let's look at football, but when they saw this long pass from Royce, the two were desperate.
Royce obviously has a very clear understanding of Lin Yi's speed, so this kick is quite big, Lin Yi can catch up, but Barcelona's defenders can't.
Alba and Alves, the two fullbacks, in fact, if you really want to say that the speed has not convinced anyone, even if you can pass the ball to your own Bale three seconds later, Alves has not taught him to be a man.
But now, in the face of Lin Yi's rapid counterattack that was so rough that he didn't have any technical content, both of them knelt down.
Barcelona's back four, all trying their best to catch up, even though they all know that there is no hope.
Ter Stegen doesn't expect much from his defenders anymore.
When Royce made a long pass, he observed Lin Yi's receiving and movements, hoping that he could pause a little and then be blocked by his own defender, but no, the football fell in front of Lin Yi, and Lin Yi just used one step to stop the ball and bring it forward.
There was no pause in his pace of progress due to the stoppage, and in this moment, Ter Stegen ushered in the biggest crisis of the game.
Lin Yi's position to catch the ball is about thirty meters away from his goal, which is already Lin Yi's effective range, so every choice at the moment must be very cautious.
Ter Stegen was cautious and tried his best to spread his body, trying to create some visual oppression for Lin Yi.
But he regretted to find that Lin Yi did not look at himself at all, but stared at the turf of the Parc des Princes as if waiting to pick up money, and did not mean to look up at all.
Ter Stegen reacted quickly, and immediately understood the reason why Lin Yi did this, because now that the sun has not set, he can see the shadow of himself and the goal from the field, with Lin Yi's ball sense and awareness, under such conditions, he can already make very wonderful judgments.
Ter Stegen shouted and strode forward at Lin with the ball.
Sortie!
As Lin rushed past the top of the penalty area, Ter Stegen decisively abandoned the goal, and the two men quickly approached.
Ter Stegen wondered if he could catch up with Lin Yi's feet, and the whole person pounced and blocked Lin Yi's way.
But while maintaining a high-speed run, Lin Yi, who also maintained a high-speed operation of his brain, was actually waiting for this time.
Seeing Ter Stegen attacking, and his center of gravity continued to sink to block his shot, Lin Yi didn't stop, but his toes suddenly twisted, and then he saw that between the two people, who were close enough to see the beads of sweat on each other's faces, a football flew up.
Ter Stegen was still thinking about blocking Lin Yi's shot angle, but Lin Yi's shot had already come.
It caught him off guard.
In fact, not only him, but even the audience on the sidelines didn't see how Lin Yi completed such a shooting action.
All you see is a flying football, and at the end of the day, Ter Stegen has already flown over the goal line and into the goal.
Then it's time for the sense of hearing to come into play, when the whistle blows to signal that the goal is valid.
Such a whistle not only sounded over the stadium, but also pierced the hearts of Barcelona fans.
And the Dortmund fans who came with the team, as well as the local Lin Yi fans in Paris organized by Xiaopang, exploded at this time.
“Lin-Yi! Lin-Yi! Lin-Yi! Lin-Yi! Lin-Yi! ”
The blunt cry was made by foreign fans, and there was a very standard shout, which was the shout of those Chinese fans led by Xiaopang.
After the goal, Lin stumbled past Ter Stegen and then swooped down on the turf with a dive.
The first to rush was Aubameyang, who threw himself at Lin Yi's side, shouting loudly.
Then came Royce, then Mechtaryan, followed by Castro.
Despite being criticized by Lin at half-time, the German international was 100 per cent convinced of the quality of their captain.
Lin Yi lay on the ground, only feeling that he really wanted to lie here and sleep like this.
He hadn't felt it in the high-intensity confrontation and running all along, but now that he had stopped, he realized that he was actually very tired.
2-1, the overtake was very sudden, Enrique, who was sitting on the sidelines, was even talking to his players and partners, and the goal happened.
Enrique opened his mouth, turned his head to look at the time, and then quickly rushed to the sideline and called Iniesta over.
At the same time, he did not forget, and turned around and called Alda Turan and Munir to warm up.
Tuchel jumped to his feet in surprise and turned to look for a hug from Kyle.
Kyle doesn't really want to deal with him, but this is a public occasion after all, and he always has to give the new coach a little face.
Barcelona's players finally had a sense of crisis at this time, and they couldn't attack for a long time and were counterattacked by the opponent, they actually saw a lot of such situations, but when the game was about to end with ten minutes left, it really didn't happen.
Captain Andres Iniesta was called to the sidelines by the coach at this time to set up, obviously unable to say anything to everyone.
However, Barcelona has never been a team that relies on the captain alone, because they have other cores besides the captain.
Messi turned his head to look at the guy opposite who had the same back number as himself, and turned to look at his two partners.
"Wait and pass me the ball one more time, otherwise there may not be enough time."
Neymar and Suarez, two of the ten men who are probably already the best at playing football on the planet, look at each other and smile.
