Chapter 195: An Untimely Penalty
The more experienced the players, the more perceptive the players, the stronger the ability to adjust themselves in the game, as the game progresses, many of Dortmund's players have sensed that something is not quite right, and they are not wrong to be cautious, but now they are not only cautious, but have completely become cowardly and timid.
They really want to go back to the old mode of attacking freely, but there is always a hurdle in their hearts that they can't get over, for fear that they will lose the ball if they do so.
Something was needed to stimulate their nerves, which were almost trembling.
Maybe even Dortmund's players didn't expect that it was their opponent Bayern Munich who helped them.
In the eighteenth minute of the first half of the game, Thomas Muller received a wonderful pass from Kroos in the middle, rubbed the outside instep, and the ball grazed the post and flew out of the bottom line, shocking all the Dort players in a cold sweat.
Bayern's goal did not score, but it deeply stimulated Dortmund.
Since this kind of defense can't avoid being scored by the opponent, it is better to return to the previous state, as long as you don't make mistakes, you are definitely more comfortable than playing now.
Bayern's old coach Heynckes on the sidelines was originally relaxed, but seeing the performance of the two teams on the field now, he is full of confidence in his team.
But the situation suddenly changed at this time, and Dortmund, who had been cowering all the time, suddenly came to life as if stimulated by something.
Not only the offense in the front court has been lived, but even the offense in the back court has been livened.
The fierce central defender Hummels even broke through to Bayern Munich's penalty area with the ball, which was very similar to Beckenbauer back then.
"Wake up, the sleeping tiger has finally woken up! After more than ten minutes of sluggishness, Dortmund regained their old style, the exquisite short pass combination, the fast attack and back defense! Disaster for Bayern Munich is coming! ”
The live commentator was certainly not a prophet, but his words came true.
Having regained their form, self-confidence and self-esteem, Dortmund finally scored in the 38th minute of the game after 20 minutes of onslaught.
“TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOER!!!!!!!! The deadlock was broken! Royce! It was Royce who scored the goal! The rising star, who has just moved to Dortmund for a season, has become an indispensable core of Dortmund's squad, and his existence seems to be prepared to win. ”
"Royce! Royce! ”
The Dortmund fans at the scene shouted frantically, they had been holding back for more than 30 minutes, they had already been a little uncomfortable, and Reus's goal at this time was undoubtedly a shot in the arm for them, which made them more confident in winning Bayern Munich.
Although it was not Lin Yu who scored, this time the on-site commentators and fans did not complain about him, because his performance was remarkable, and several threatening passes caused chaos in Bayern's backline.
And Reus's goal was also initiated by him, although the final assist was Gotze, but he was one of the heroes of this goal.
The goal would have been almost impossible had it not been for him forcing his way through the three-man defence, bringing the ball to Bayern Munich's penalty line and then stuffing it into an unmarked Gotze.
The excited Royce ran around the court, and then was caught by Gotze and Lin Yu, both of whom stepped forward to rub Royce's hair, looking very happy.
Lin Yu was often rubbed his hair after scoring a goal, so he had wanted to do it for a long time, but he had never done it before, but today, he finally got his long-cherished wish.
Although this goal only gave Dortmund a temporary lead over Bayern Munich, it is better to lead than to be behind, and Dortmund leading at home will definitely be more ferocious, and they will play better in the next game, Bayern Munich If they don't plan early, I'm afraid today's game will be hanging.
'One goal is not enough to send Borussia Dortmund to the league title, they need more! and Lin Yu, if he wants to hit the league goal record that has been in the dust for more than 30 years, he must not be satisfied with the current score, he must need to score again! ”
The Bayern Munich players who were scored were a little annoyed, but now they can only suppress their anger in their hearts and prepare for the next counterattack, after all, there are still more than 40 minutes left in the game, and the opponent has only scored one goal, and they still have a chance.
Giving up so early is not Bayern Munich's style.
The old coach Heynckes also stood up from the bench, walked to the sidelines, and shouted at his players: "Don't panic, the game has just begun!" ”
The players certainly know what he meant by "just getting started".
In fact, Bayern Munich did not use their best for the first 38 minutes, and they did hold back because they wanted to stay in better form in the Champions League against Barcelona from La Liga, a powerful team known as the Cosmos.
At the end of the season, their veteran coach Heynckes will announce his retirement, while Pep Guardiola, who once led Barcelona to a six-time crown, will join the Allianz Arena as the new head coach of Bayern Munich.
Whatever the purpose, Bayern's players want to give him one of the most precious gifts before the departure of the old coach Heynckes, which is the Champions League trophy.
And Barcelona's strength is also recognized by the world, and they have to be careful.
But now, they find that if they don't go all out against Dortmund, the game will end in defeat, and the league title they have almost already won will be lost to Dortmund.
How could they be willing? Whether it's the Champions League, the league, the German Cup, they all want to be champions, they want to be the treble this season, this is the best thank you to Heynckes, and it is also the most glamorous welcome ceremony to welcome Pep Guardiola.
Once Bayern exerts its strength, its combat effectiveness will suddenly increase, but Dortmund is not weak, the two teams go back and forth, from the first half to the second half, the play is inseparable.
It wasn't until the 62nd minute of the game that the teenager Bender made a not too big mistake because of panic, but because of this not a big mistake, Schweinsteiger, a pig in the middle, seized the opportunity, and he made a beautiful through ball to Mandzukich in front.
Mandzukic broke through with the ball, he was very fast and had already formed a one-on-one chance.
At this time, Dortmund attacked too fiercely, and as a result, he was a little careless in kicking and kicking, which led to a big problem in the rear air defense.
As a result, Weidenfeller had to rush out in order to stop Mandzukic, but because Mandzukic's feet were fast, he pushed Mandzukich to the ground.
The referee immediately showed Weidenfeller a yellow card and awarded Bayern Munich a penalty.
There are three good penalty kicks, close, stable and easy to kick!
I have to say that the probability of scoring a penalty shot is very high compared to shooting in a sports battle, although there are times when the shot flies, but it is all due to tension, not a technical problem.
