Chapter 382: Not Strong Enough
When the game resumed, Dortmund took advantage of the momentum they had just scored and launched a wave of fierce attacks on Real Madrid's goal, hoping to score another goal in a short period of time, taking advantage of the fact that Real Madrid had just conceded. www.biquge.info Although it is good to get a draw away from home, if you can win, how many people will refuse such a better result?
But Real Madrid is not vegetarian.
In the face of Dortmund's attack, they did not entangle with Dortmund in midfield, but recycled into their own half.
Fought back defensively!
Zhou Yi quickly saw Real Madrid's intentions, but at this time, the morale of the whole team was high, and he alone could not calm down the whole team.
And he himself wants to gamble that he can take advantage of the situation to score a goal first, so that Dortmund will be safer. Even if they were equalized or even defeated by Real Madrid in the end, Dortmund, who had two away goals in hand, had more confidence after returning to home.
But unfortunately, the three-minute bombardment did not allow Dortmund to score, but when this wave of fierce offensive was about to end, Real Madrid used a classic quick counterattack to score a goal!
The Spanish commentator was thrilled !! "Di Maria" and there were huge cheers from the stands at the Bernabeu.
"Three minutes after conceding a goal, Real Madrid took the lead again!
Marcel Leif and He Ping were not so excited, and when they saw the ball conceded, they both sighed in unison.
"When Dortmund laid siege to Real Madrid's goal, they obviously forgot that this Real Madrid team is very good at counter-attacking defense......"
"Dortmund should be able to shrink their defence quickly. 1:2 is not the end of the world either, and this score should be perfectly acceptable for Dortmund. Keeping this score until the end of the game, Dortmund still has a good chance of progressing to the semi-finals when they return to their home stadium!"
※※※
After the restart, Dortmund did recycle their defence.
But how could Real Madrid let them go so easily?
Zhou Yi's goal seemed to infuriate the giants.
They scored twice in the 67th and 79th minutes by Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo as Real Madrid beat Borussia Dortmund 4-1 on their home turf.
The score almost put the next leg out of the quarter-finals.
So at the end of the game, He Ping didn't know how to comfort the Chinese fans who stayed up all night waiting.
After half a ring, when the close-up of the TV broadcast was on Zhou Yi, he said: "...... Zhou Yi has done everything he can to score an away goal for Borussia Dortmund, and if Dortmund still have a glimmer of hope of qualifying for the semi-finals, then that hope is brought by Zhou Yi...... But unfortunately, football is a team sport, not just one person can eat it all, in terms of overall strength, Real Madrid is indeed stronger than Dortmund, there is no doubt about it......"
Zhou Yi in the close-up is stopped by a Real Madrid player.
It was Ozil who stopped him.
They have played each other in the Bundesliga.
"It's a shame to lose, Zhou Yi. Ozil said to Zhou Yi with his shirt in his hand. "Actually, you're doing a good job. ”
"Thank you, Mesut. Zhou Yi also took off his shirt and exchanged shirts with Mesut Ozil.
After receiving Zhou Yi's shirt, Ozil said: "I know I'm a bit nosy when I say that, but Zhou Yi, your performance in Dortmund is perfect, if you want to achieve more, you should jump out of Dortmund and go to those real giants...... Of course, Real Madrid, don't come, what should I do if you come?"
Zhou Yi was amused by Ozil, and he smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Mesut." But I don't want to leave Dortmund yet. ”
"Why? Borussia Dortmund, you know, I have a bad remark, they are a team that lacks ambition and because of the economy, they always have to sell key players to balance the budget. This is also the reason why this team will always be pressed by Bayern Munich in China...... "Maybe because he has played in the Bundesliga, Ozil is willing to say so much to Zhou Yi."
"But this season, it's us who are holding Bayern Munich, Mesut. Zhou Yi said.
Ozil was speechless.
"Thank you, Mesut, not everyone would be so sincere with others. Thank you for the advice, but I really don't think about leaving right now because I haven't won the title at Borussia Dortmund yet. After speaking, Zhou Yi put on Ozil's Real Madrid No. 23 jersey, said goodbye to Ozil, and turned to leave.
Ozil looked at Zhou Yi's back wearing his jersey from behind, and for a moment, he felt like Zhou Yi was really a Real Madrid player. Because Zhou Yi's jersey in Dortmund is also number 23......
Khedira leaned in, "What did you tell him?"
"I told him not to stay in Dortmund all the time. ”
"Do you want to find yourself a competitor?"
"So I told him not to come to Real Madrid. ”
"Did he say yes?"
He said he wasn't thinking about leaving Dortmund right now because he hadn't won the title at Dortmund yet. ”
"It's too rigid...... said," Khedira frowned. "You and I didn't win any championships in the same team. When the opportunity comes, why should you miss it for this reason?"
'If nothing else, Borussia Dortmund will win the league this season, Sammy. ”
"That's right. When the time comes...... There's a lot going on in the transfer market!" Khedira laughed.
With Zhou Yi's outstanding performance in the Champions League this season, he will certainly not be short of suitors.
When those big clubs wave their checkbooks and launch a golden yuan offensive against Dortmund, will Zhou Yi and Dortmund still be able to resist?
'But I don't want him to go to Barcelona because his style of play matches Barcelona. Ozil said.
"I don't want him to go either. "On this issue, Khedira and Mesut Ozil are on the same page.
Barcelona are tough enough to play against now, having only won 5-0 at home to Real Madrid in the first half of the season. If Zhou Yi is added, do you want other competitors to live?

Zhou Yi, who was wearing Real Madrid's No. 23 shirt, was stopped by reporters in the mixed zone.
"Is the defeat of Dortmund in this game related to your previous injury?" asked a Chinese reporter.
"No, it doesn't matter. Zhou Yi shook his head and said.
"But the time between you and when you recover from your injury is too short. Surely it will have some impact on your performance, right?"
"There was no impact. Zhou Yi continued to shake his head.
"This ......" Everyone saw that Zhou Yi was so sure, and they didn't know what to say.
'Our defeat to Real Madrid had nothing to do with my previous injury. There's only one reason, and that's that we're not strong enough. Zhou Yi said.
With that, he turned and left the mixing area.

The 1-4 defeat left the Dortmund players feeling depressed and frustrated, and everyone was silent on the way back to Dortmund.
Zhou Yi was also sleeping on the plane wearing an eye mask and did not speak.
But unlike his frustrated teammates, he was looking for a way to win in the virtual space.
The score of 1:4 allowed Dortmund to return to home and eliminate the opponent by scoring away goals as long as they could win 3:0.
Zhou Yi doesn't think it's impossible to do.
Back in the day, Deportivo La Coruna faced the powerful defending champion AC Milan, and the first leg was a 1-4 defeat on the road, and everyone thought that AC Milan had advanced 100 per cent.
But who would have thought that in the second leg, Deportivo really beat AC Milan 3:0 at home!
They accomplished incredible miracles.
Zhou Yi felt that Deportivo La Coruna could do it, and Dortmund could do it too.
※※※
On this night, the two teams in the Ruhr area experienced a double day of ice and fire. Borussia Dortmund suffered a 4-1 defeat at Real Madrid, while Schalke 04 came from behind twice to beat Inter Milan 5-2.
This match also basically declared the defending champions out.
Even if Inter Milan beat Schalke 04 3-0 away in the second leg to level the aggregate score, they will also be eliminated by the disadvantage of fewer away goals.
Back at Dortmund, Jurgen Klopp faced reporters and denied that he was going to give up the Champions League: "We will fight until the last minute. ”
As a result, he rotated away to Hamburg to focus more on the Champions League, where he intends to play Real Madrid to the death.
As a result, Borussia Dortmund drew 1-1 away at Hamburg, while Bayer Leverkusen beat St. Pauli 2-1 at home, and the gap between first and second in the league changed from five points to three, a match away.
Dortmund didn't care much about the draw in this game, they were full of thoughts about counterattacking Real Madrid at home, and they only had the Champions League in their eyes.
Borussia Dortmund welcomed Real Madrid at home.
Before the game, the German media hyped up Real Madrid's results away from home against the German side, implying that Dortmund's chances of winning at home seemed great.
Once the game started, Dortmund also attacked desperately, hoping to score as soon as possible.
Facing the aggressive Borussia Dortmund, Mourinho allowed his side to play a counter-attack. This is the set of tactics that Real Madrid do best.
Although Dortmund scored a goal in the 38th minute with Zhou Yi assisting Mark, Dortmund fans saw hope.
However, towards the end of the first half, Real Madrid equalised with a counter-attack. The ball almost knocked Dortmund into the abyss. Not only did it offset Dortmund's original away goal advantage, but it also turned the score gap between the two sides back into three goals.
With 45 minutes remaining, it became very difficult for Dortmund to score three goals in a row.
They are against Jose Mourinho's Real Madrid, a coach who is the best at putting a bus in front of his goal......
Sure enough, after the two sides changed sides in the second half, Real Madrid contracted its defense and set up a bus in front of the goal, and Dortmund could not break through Real Madrid's bus formation with indiscriminate bombardment.
In the end, when the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, Dortmund were eliminated by Real Madrid with an aggregate score of 2:5, ending their first Champions League trip in seven years.
Zhou Yi was substituted in the 86th minute of the game. With little time left and three goals left, Klopp thought it was impossible for Dortmund to turn the tide of the game, and it was pointless to keep Zhou Yi on the pitch, so let's think about the league - realistically, with the Champions League eliminated being a foregone conclusion, the league title must of course be grasped......
So he replaced Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi was replaced, which also means that Dortmund has given up this game.
"I'm going to say goodbye to Zhou Yi. When Zhou Yi was replaced, He Ping said. He is in charge of commentating on the Champions League and La Liga, and this season he has no chance to explain Zhou Yi's games, so he said so. "But it won't be long before we meet again in next season's Champions League!"
After Zhou Yi got off the field, he raised his hand to applaud the Dortmund fans in the stands to thank him.
And those Dortmund fans also stood up from their respective positions, bid farewell to Zhou Yi with applause, and thanked Zhou Yi for everything he had done to the team. Although it is very sad to be eliminated, if there is no Zhou Yi, Dortmund may not even have a chance to be eliminated......
With the substitution, Zhou Yi's results in his first career Champions League journey were fixed on two goals and six assists, a very stunning and successful debut.
With that, Dortmund's Champions League campaign this season is over, and now they are free to concentrate on their opponents in the domestic league.
This is definitely not good news for Bayer Leverkusen......
