Chapter 267: Gotze's Challenge

Pep Guardiola was unhappy with the referee of the game, Tswil.

But then there was something that made him unhappy......

Just three minutes after Martinez's foul, Bayern Munich laid siege to Dortmund in front.

It was Dortmund who passed the ball forward from the wing, but when Aubameyang, who retreated to receive the ball, turned around, he was kicked forward from behind by Bayern Munich's right-back Raphinha and stabbed the football.

The stabbed ball fell to the feet of Bayern Munich captain Lahm.

Ram turned and passed the ball forward to Robben on the wing.

After Robben got the ball, he played a one-two with Lewandowski, who was close at hand, he ran off the ball to shake off the defenders, received the ball from Lewandowski and dribbled horizontally.

In the process, he encountered the Dortmund player's grab, and he immediately passed the football to Schweinsteiger, who was waiting next to him, and then accelerated forward himself, trying to play a one-two with Schweinsteiger again.

However, Schweinsteiger didn't catch the ball well, and the ball bounced when he stopped the ball, which made him have to take time to readjust, but the timing of the pass to Robben was lost.

Schweinsteiger had to re-select the target of the pass, and he intended to pass the ball back to Lahm.

So he picked up the football, and it hit the arm of Dortmund defender Sven Bender, who came up to grab him!

Schweinsteiger immediately raised his hand to signal that the Dortmund player had fouled the ball for handball.

And the referee Tswill did blow the whistle and called a timeout for the game.

Sven Bender, however, was aggrieved, telling the referee that he did not open his arms and that he was the ball hitter, not the hand.

But the referee didn't listen to his explanation and motioned for Bayern Munich to take a free-kick.

However, he did not give Sven Bender a verbal warning, nor did he give a card.

This made the Bayern Munich fans in the stands very dissatisfied, and for a while, there were boos in the Allianz Arena.

Pep Guardiola in front of the dugout also looked excited, he turned directly to the fourth official, shook his head and waved at him, and complained loudly: "Why don't you give cards?!"

The fourth official pressed down with his hands and signaled Guardiola to calm down.

Pep Guardiola is still tangling with the fourth official.

Members of the Dortmund coaching staff next door turned their heads to look at each other.

"It's only been thirteen minutes since the game, is Guardiola so excited?"

"You don't know the importance of this game. Of course, he has to pay for it. ”

"I think that's a good thing, ha!" Klopp laughed. This shows that Guardiola is very anxious and unbalanced. That's good news for us. ”

While Pep Guardiola went to the fourth official to theorize, the other Bayern Munich coaches also shouted on the sidelines to express their dissatisfaction.

In stark contrast to them, there is the coach's bench on the side of Dortmund, where everyone sits in their seats, crosses their legs, supports their chins with their hands, looks at the pitch, and then chats.

As a catch-up in a marathon that has always been close to the frontrunner, Dortmund is indeed in a better state of mind than Bayern Munich, the front-runner who is being overtaken......

In the end, Sven Bender did not get a yellow card, and the free kick taken by Alaba, which was directly off the bottom line, Weidenfeller didn't even make a save, and turned his head directly to watch the football go out of the goal.

Bayern Munich's attack yielded nothing.

The TV broadcast gave a close-up of Guardiola on the sidelines, and Guardiola in the shot was blowing his lips with air, looking helpless.

※※※

It didn't take long for Bayern Munich to make a comeback again, Robben's breakthrough on the right flank was shoveled out of the line by Durm, and Bayern Munich won a corner.

In the opening ten minutes, in general, Bayern Munich, who were still playing at home, had the upper hand, with more possession than Dortmund, and they attacked the 30-metre area of Dortmund more often.

Aside from the controversy surrounding the decision at the beginning, it was clear that this was indeed Bayern Munich's home stadium.

In the face of Bayern Munich's aggressive attack, Dortmund can only shrink their defense during this time, I don't know if they are ready to wait for an opportunity to counterattack, but at least so far, Bayern Munich has not given them a chance to counterattack.

Lahm came to take the free-kick, but instead of sending it directly to goal, he sent it outside the box.

There, Götze is waiting!

Zhou Yi was also outside the penalty area, and when he saw the football being passed outside, he guessed what Bayern Munich was going to do.

So he hurriedly pounced on Gotze.

Gotze jumped up and cushioned the high ball from Ram with his big chest, then followed him with his right foot and slashed the ball to the left!

The football flew over Zhou Yi's head.

"Oh pretty! Gotze has a beautiful ball-pick, wonderful!" exclaimed Marcel Leiff.

At the same time, Gotze quickly dodged Zhou Yi who pounced, and directly slammed his foot to meet the falling football is a volley!

Boom!

The soccer ball flew straight to the goal!

Hummels jumped up in the crowd to block the ball with his body, and the ball hit his outstretched leg.

Then it jumped over the crossbar and Bayern Munich won another corner.

"Oh——!!"

There was an abrupt cheer from the stands.

But then the applause rang out.

This applause was given to Bayern Munich's attack, to Gotze.

The TV broadcast also immediately began to replay the slow motion of Götze's goal.

"Gotze is very smart with this ball, first pad the football with his chest, and then immediately raise his foot to pick up the ball, just past Zhou Yi who pounced, and then volleyed directly without stopping the ball...... If it weren't for Hummels' timely kick, the goal would have been scored, and if it did, it would have been a wave of the world......" Duan Xin was also full of praise for Gotze's performance.

Marcel Leif: "This goal shows that Gotze is in good form right now! At a time when the competition for the league title is at its most fierce and white-hot, Gotze's excellent form is definitely a big weapon for Bayern Munich. Since his move to Bayern Munich, Gotze has actually been under a lot of pressure, with Dortmund fans calling him a traitor and Bayern Munich fans also looking at him with a critical eye. If he can really help Bayern Munich win the league title, then I believe that all the pressure will disappear and all the problems will be solved......"

Seeing that his shot was blocked by Hummels, Gotze held his head in his hands in regret.

Next to him, Zhou Yi turned his head and glanced at him.

He really couldn't help that pick-up, even if he knew that Götze was going to pick the ball, he didn't have a way. I kind of gave Götze a background this time......

Götze regretted that it was over, and found that Zhou Yi was looking at himself.

So when he passed by Zhou Yi, he lowered his voice and said in his ear: "I will defeat you this time!"

"Huh?" Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Ge Ting to suddenly walk up to him and say such a sentence.

Without repeating or explaining, Gotze walked into the box and prepared for the second corner.

"Bayern Munich won two corners in a row and formed a pressure on Dortmund on the field!" the Munich radio commentator was excited.

This time, it was Lahm who took the penalty but didn't kick the ball outside the box again.

After all, I've just done this, so I have to change something......

How can there be a corner tactic that has been used, and with an embarrassing shot on goal, Dortmund will certainly be on guard.

So Lahm kicked the ball straight in front of the Dortmund goal.

Hummels jumped to the top and pushed the ball out.

The football fell to the feet of Yan Min outside.

Yan Min stopped the ball and turned around, and as soon as he turned around, Schweinsteiger pounced.

And Yan Min took advantage of the situation to take a big foot to the ball and go far away from the football.

He himself was starting the overtake from Schweinsteiger.

The whole process is done in one go.

"Dortmund's counterattack!" Marcel Leif shouted.

In the boos of Bayern Munich fans, Yan Min caught up with the football with speed and strode forward with the ball.

At this time, Bayern Munich's players rushed back to the defense.

Raphinha dragged on from the corner kick and didn't go up. Now the importance of this move is demonstrated.

He pressed quickly and then stabbed the ball out of the touchline with a preemptive kick that didn't allow Dortmund to pull the counter-attack.

"Raphinha! he made a good defense! Dortmund's counter-attack didn't go up!"

The Bayern Munich fans in the stands gave Raphinha a round of applause and cheers.

But before the cheers were over, they saw that Yan Min was not discouraged at all and did not complain, but quickly ran to the sideline, picked up the football that Raphinha had stabbed out, and then without waiting for others to react, he threw the football into the field!

Free kicks have a quick serve, a corner kick also has a quick serve, and this throw-in can also be a quick serve!

He threw the football at Royce, who had just followed him forward at high speed.

Reuss sped closer to the touchline after seeing the ball poked out of bounds.

Yan Min also understood, so he had this "throw-in" fast hair.

Seeing this, Raphinha hurriedly rushed to Reus, even if he couldn't cut off the ball, he had to stop him from continuing to advance with the ball.

But Royce didn't even think about pushing forward, and as he received the ball, he bounced the ball out with the outside instep.

It was a difficult pass, but Reus was bold enough to get the ball in front of Aubameyang accurately.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang dribbled towards Bayern Munich's penalty area.

"Dortmund's counterattack continues!" Marcel Leif chanted.

"Be careful...... "Radio Munich announcer anxiously reminded.

The Bayern Munich players who returned to defend all rushed towards Aubameyang when they saw this.

Hopefully Aubameyang will be pushed to the side.

Aubameyang did take the ball to the side, but just after he had taken a step, he flicked it sideways with the outside of his right foot!

The ball escaped from Bayern Munich's encirclement and landed in front of the right rib of the penalty area.

There, Zhou Yi received the ball!

"Zhou Yi!!"
