Chapter 257: Back Assist
In the thirtieth minute, Yan Min broke through with the ball on the right side, he first buckled the football back to his left foot, as if he wanted to cut inside, but then used his left foot to buckle the football back and continued to break through.
Because it was already very close to the bottom line, there was almost no room to dribble the ball again, and Yan Min forced his feet to cross.
The ball was blocked off the touchline by PSG left wing-back Maxwell, who had been defending him.
Borussia Dortmund won a throw-in very close to the corner flag zone.
Remember the first leg between the two sides?
Almost in the same position, PSG won a throw-in.
Facing the dense crowd in the penalty area, He Ying took the initiative to pull the ball outside the penalty area, and then staged a wonderful individual performance, breaking through the Dortmund defense and sending the football into the goal guarded by Weidenfeller, helping Paris Saint-Germain beat Dortmund 3-1 at home.
This time, it was Dortmund who won the throw-in from the same position.
Paris Saint-Germain's penalty area is now also crowded.
How to send this throw-in, you need to know a little brain.
Generally, the person who takes the throw-in is the full-back of each team, and throwing the throw-in is one of the things that the full-back needs to train.
However, in this game, because Dortmund's main right-back Piszczek was suspended, he was replaced by Grosskreutz.
Professionally, he still has to be close to a regular full-back.
Grosskreutz held the football and looked at the dense crowd in the penalty area, a little confused.
But he can't keep holding the ball and not throwing it, that would be a violation, and he has to give the ball to the opponent.
At first, Grosskreutz planned to throw the football directly at Yan Min, who was nearby.
But he made all the movements of throwing the ball, but he came to a sudden brake, because Yan Min had a Paris Saint-Germain player next to him to defend himself indefinitely, and the ball would be destroyed nine times out of ten.
This hesitation is running out of time for him.
So Grosskreutz gritted his teeth, and couldn't think about it, and decided to throw the football directly into the penalty area, anyway, there are so many there, if anyone touches it, maybe they can create a chance to score?
This kind of ball pays attention to a "win in chaos", the more chaotic the goal, the better!
Moreover, a vigorous throw-in, thrown directly in front of the goal, is indeed an effective means of scoring.
So he stepped back again, this time for a longer distance, and everyone knew what he was going to do as soon as they saw this stance, so the players on both sides in front of the goal became nervous.
Grosskreutz scurried to the touchline and threw the ball into the Paris Saint-Germain penalty area with both hands.
Zhou Yi originally didn't enter the penalty area, this kind of ball basically has nothing to do with him, there are many people in it, and he is also boring in the penalty area. He should have chosen to wait outside the box for the second drop.
But this time, Zhou Yi chose to run into the penalty area.
He crept close to Paris Saint-Germain's centre-back Alex and ambushed him.
His appearance did not attract attention, in the penalty area, Zhou Yi, who is less than 1.8 meters tall, will not be the focus, and his height and strength cannot threaten the opponent's goal. In fact, he rarely scores with a header.
Grosskreutz then threw the ball into the box.
It happened to be thrown at the area where Zhou Yi was, of course he didn't throw it on Zhou Yi's head, in fact, he didn't see Zhou Yi at all, he just threw it towards that area. Because there are players from both sides, in addition to Paris Saint-Germain's two central defenders, Thiago Silva and Alex, there are also Dortmund's Mark Wagner and Hummels.
The four of them were gathered in that area, and all he had to do was throw it in that direction, and then he prayed to be touched by his own people and orient the ball to the goal......
But Grosskreutz threw the ball a little high......
Seeing this height, Hummels didn't even jump - he knew he couldn't jump up.
It was Alex who jumped up behind Hummels and tried to push the ball out.
But he also underestimated the height of the ball.
He jumped up as hard as he could, but he didn't reach the football, which almost slid down against his bare scalp.
And Zhou Yi is behind him!
The football fell like this, it was so close at hand, it was impossible for Zhou Yi to stop the ball or shoot at all.
But Zhou Yi's reaction was also very fast, he immediately bent forward, and the falling football happened to hit his back, and then rebounded to his back......
Behind him, Yan Min, who was inserted into the restricted area from the other side.
He only rushed into the box in this direction when he saw Grosskreutz throw the throw-in.
is different from Zhou Yi's calm thinking that he feels that he is not tall enough, so he does not go into the crowd, and would rather wait for the second landing point outside.
Yan Min didn't care about 3721, he felt that he could only create a threat if he was closer to the goal, so he would always rush into the penalty area more, regardless of whether he could grab the ball or not......
But this time, he really grabbed it!
The football that was cushioned by Zhou Yi's back just fell in front of Yan Min, Yan Min didn't even need to adjust, he picked up his right foot very naturally during the run, and was rebounded by Zhou Yi, and the ball speed slowed down, which allowed him to kick the football very calmly and accurately.
That's it!
The ball flew upwards, then grazed the underside of the crossbar and into the goal in front of it!
"Ball...... The ball is in!" He Ping shouted. "Yan Min! It's Yan Min! He broke the deadlock for Borussia Dortmund! Now the aggregate score is 2:3! Dortmund is only one goal behind! They are only one goal away from eliminating Paris Saint-Germain!"
"TOOOOOOOOOOOOOR!TOOOOOOOOOOOR!!!" Marcel Leif cheered, waving his fist. "Yan Min! Good job! Yan Min! He received an assist from Zhou Yi and scored a crucial goal! In the unfavorable situation of Royce's injury, Yan Min's goal is very, very crucial!"
The entire West** Stadium was boiling at this moment.
After Reuss' injury, Dortmund fans, who had been terrified for a long time, could finally cheer to their heart's content.
Yan Min was also very excited after the goal, he ran directly under the south stand and waved to the fans above.
And the fans there were chanting his name loudly.
Although he has only been in Dortmund for less than a season, he has not really played in the first team of Dortmund for half a season, and he has also caused disgust among Dortmund fans because of the controversial remarks in the interview. But now, he has won the support of the Dortmund fans with his hard work and performances.
More teammates rushed up to him, hugged him and celebrated the goal together.
After Reuss went off injured, the goal came in a timely and crucial manner, stabilizing everyone's hearts and giving them confidence.
※※※
While the Dortmund players were celebrating their goal, the TV broadcast was replaying the goal.
When he saw Alex rise to the top and Zhou Yi used his back to put the football pad on Yan Min, He Ping laughed: "The way this assist is really unexpected - what about such an operation? Zhou Yi doesn't know if it was intentional or signaled, but no matter what it is, at least he completed a special assist...... In this Chinese derby, two Chinese players completed a clever combination and a wonderful goal. He Ying in the last game, and is it going to be Zhou Yi and Yan Min's turn in this game?"
Speaking of which, He Ping still has some expectations.
"It's really the assist king of the Bundesliga, it's just that all over the body, except for the hands, can deliver deadly passes......" Marcel Leif also breathed. Of course, Yan Min's forward insertion is also very timely, otherwise Zhou Yi's goal would be just a mistake...... In short, beautiful attack and goals, Dortmund is only one goal away now, and there is still more than half of the game, there is a good show to watch!"
The French commentator was disappointed: "Ah...... Paris Saint-Germain conceded a goal! this goal is ......," he said after a moment's pause. "It's really overwhelming. This is not Dortmund's chance at all! How did it become their goal? Dortmund's luck is too good to score such a goal by mistake!"
※※※
Because Borussia Dortmund scored, it was Paris Saint-Germain who kicked off to get the game back up.
After the restart, PSG took advantage of their kick-off to launch an offensive towards Borussia Dortmund's goal.
He Ying passed the football to Lucas Jr., but Lucas Jr. did not continue to pass the ball and look for better opportunities, but shot directly from outside the penalty area.
As a result, such a hasty shot on goal, of course, was deservedly missed, and did not threaten Dort's goal, Weidenfeller did not even jump, but turned his head to send the football out of the bottom line, far from the goal he guarded.
He Ying spread his hand towards Lucas Jr., he just ran into the penalty area after passing the ball, but when he turned around, he saw Lucas Jr. shooting directly at the goal, without seeking cooperation with him.
He was expressing his frustration and dissatisfaction to Lucas Jr.
However, little Lucas didn't seem to see his actions and ran back.
He Ying waved his hand helplessly behind him.
