Chapter 161: Continue the Pursuit

When the ball bounced under the flying Hildebrand into the back of the net, the game went to the second minute of stoppage time, two minutes to go until full-time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Zhou Yi's kick can basically be said to be a stunner, and he completely shattered Schalke 04's hopes of beating Dortmund at home.

After the goal, Zhou Yi glanced at the goal and confirmed that the football flew in, then turned around and ran to the corner flag area with open arms.

He was so excited that he didn't go to Reus, who gave him the assist, to hug and celebrate – usually most of the time, if he scored, he would go to his team-mate who assisted him.

But this time, he didn't, because he was so excited that he forgot about it.

When he was about to run to the corner flag area, he directly came to a slippery kneeling, and such a celebration was rarely seen on Zhou Yi's body.

This shows how excited and excited he is.

He certainly had reason to be so excited and excited, because the goal not only allowed Dortmund to beat Ruhr derby rivals Schalke 04, but also kept Dortmund alive with Bayern Munich's hopes of competing for the league title.

The other Dortmund players were more excited than Zhou Yi, they ran to Zhou Yi, and then pressed Zhou Yi to the ground, and then pressed on it, stacking Luohan.

On the bench and coach's bench at Borussia Dortmund, everyone rushed to Zhou Yi and joined in the frantic celebrations.

Marcel Leif was chanting: "Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi - !! he played the key role of Borussia Dortmund again! A late goal helped Dortmund take the lead - sorry, I can't say that Dortmund have won, after all, the game is not over, but now there is not much time left before the end of the game, Dortmund have a good chance of beating Schalke 04! They will continue to maintain the pressure on Bayern Munich in the league standings!"

"Zhou Yi!eh!good ball!good ball!!!" Duan Xin in the domestic studio was also very excited. "Kill! Kill in the real sense! Zhou Yi defeated Schalke 04 with this kick! It's incredible! Ah! Haha! It's incredible! Dortmund has gone from falling behind by two goals at the beginning to now chasing back three goals, staging a shocking reversal!"

The Schalke 04 fans in the stands were silent, and only a few Dortmund fans were cheering and shouting frantically, venting their emotions.

This time, the fans of Schalke 04 did not even have the strength to interrupt the Dortmund fans with a voice, and the conceded goal in the last minute seemed to drain all the energy in their bodies. Many fans sat down in their chairs in disappointment, covering their faces with their hands.

The Schalke 04 players on the pitch were no better.

In the face of this conceded goal, many people held their heads in their hands and looked sluggish, unable to believe that they had conceded the ball at the last moment. Before Zhou Yi's goal, there was not the slightest indication that Dortmund would be able to score......

Yang Muge crossed his hands on his hips and stood helplessly in the penalty area, he didn't stop Zhou Yi, he was the sinner who lost the ball.

If he threw out all his weight just now and pressed his body directly against Zhou Yi, wouldn't it be better?

Judging from the results of the rebroadcast, if Zhou Yi's foot is solid, and the football does not fly down, but directly towards the goal, it is very likely that it will be blocked by the flying Hildebrand with his hand, or shoot directly above the crossbar.

There are three roads, but two of them lead to a dead end, and Zhou Yi chose the only successful way to survive.

Should we say that he was technically good and calm, and made the right choice, or should I say that he was lucky and right?

But no matter what, the goal went in, no matter how it was scored, as long as it could be scored. There are a lot of goals in football that actually have an element of luck in them, and some goals that have gone down in the history of football also have a lot of luck. So even if Zhou Yi is blindfolded, it will not affect his glorious performance.

With two minutes remaining, Zhou Yi equalised and the Dortmund players celebrated wildly, only to end their celebrations and return to their pitch until referee Gagelman came up to intervene in them.

But by this time, another 40 seconds of stoppage time had passed, and Schalke 04 had just over a minute left to equalise again.

After Schalke 04's players restarted, Dortmund recovered all over the line, and even a centre-forward like Robert Lewandowski retreated into the box to use his height advantage to assist the defence.

It was Zhou Yi who was at the front, but he was also defending in front, and he didn't cross the middle line.

In the final moments, the Schalke 04 fans in the stands were back on their toes to cheer on the team, and now the hope of beating Dortmund at home is unlikely. A draw is better than a loss when the game is not destined to win, so if an equaliser can be equalized at the last minute, Schalke 04 is not unacceptable.

Moreover, a draw can also make the distance between Dortmund and Bayern Munich very unhappy.

Looking at it now, if Schalke 04 had such an awareness when Dortmund equalized, maybe Zhou Yi's goal would not have happened.

But there are not so many ifs in football games, Schalke 04 is not cornered and will not accept a draw easily.

Schalke 04 pressed all the lines and poured out, and even Yang Muge hit the edge of the penalty area to participate in the attack.

However, in the face of Dortmund, Schalke 04 failed to break through Dortmund's goal again until Gagelman blew the whistle at the end of the game.

"It's over!" Marcel Leif shouted excitedly as Gagelman blew the full-time whistle. "Dortmund experienced a two-goal deficit away from home, and finally chased three goals in a row, staged a shocking reversal with a score of 3:2, and scored a crucial three points! These three points may be related to the final league title! Schalke 04 has not been able to stop Dortmund's progress, Bayern Munich will continue to have headaches......"

"Zhou Yi, he dominated the game!" a close-up of Zhou Yi appeared on the TV broadcast, and Duan Xin said happily. "Two goals, one assist, he is the general director of Dortmund who can complete this big reversal! Zhou Yi's performance in this game is world-class, we can even say that Zhou Yi is already one of the top midfielders on the planet! If Dortmund does not have him, it is unimaginable!"

After the game, Zhou Yi and Yang Muge came together: "I won again, Lao Yang." ”

"Don't say this in front of me!" Yang Muge was very depressed, his defense against Zhou Yi was actually successful in the whole game, but only three times he didn't keep an eye on it, which caused the goal to be lost, and he thought that he was the culprit of the team's loss.

Zhou Yi smiled: "Come on, strive to qualify for the Champions League next season!"

patted Yang Muge's shoulder, and Zhou Yi left. He did not exchange jerseys with Yang Muge. He knows that the hatred between the two teams in the Ruhr derby is very deep, especially among the supporters, and the exchange of jerseys between him and Schalke 04 players will definitely make Dortmund fans unhappy, and Yang Muge exchanging jerseys with a Dortmund player will definitely make Schalke 04 fans unhappy.

Zhou Yi wasn't worried about himself, but he was worried that his approach would be unfavorable to Yang Muge. So he didn't exchange jerseys with Yang Muge.

Anyway, he is not very rare Schalke 04 jersey......

After the game, Zhou Yi was selected as the best player of the game, and when interviewed by reporters, Zhou Yi still had a smile on his face: "I'm very happy that we were able to win this game in the end, the process was very difficult, Schalke 04 performed very well at their home stadium, and their two goals in the first half made us very uncomfortable. But we persevered and won. I think the most important thing about this game is probably not to win the Ruhr derby again, but to keep the pressure on Bayern Munich. ”

A reporter asked whether winning the Ruhr derby made the whole team Dortmund confident of winning the league title.

Zhou Yi replied: "It's too early to talk about the league championship, but at least we still have hope to compete for this championship, instead of falling behind early." I think it's better to wait until the championship is decided, and if you just predict it now, and the result is biased in the end, then who is responsible?"

He spread his hands.

Borussia Dortmund's win in the Ruhr derby was the biggest news in German football the next day.

Bayern Munich fans are probably a more sad and disappointed group than Schalke 04 fans.

Now their team is still two points away from Borussia Dortmund, and it doesn't feel good to be leading the marathon all the time.

Four days later, Bayern Munich lost 0:2 at home to Arsenal in the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, which was somewhat surprising, but fortunately they beat Arsenal 3-1 in the first leg, and with the same aggregate score, Bayern Munich had three away goals, one more than Arsenal with two away goals, and they eliminated Arsenal by virtue of this extra away goal advantage.

Schalke 04, who lost the Ruhr derby, may have spent too much energy in this Ruhr derby, or perhaps because the reversal by Dortmund hit their confidence and fighting spirit, in the second leg of the Champions League quarterfinals in midweek, they lost 2:3 at home to Galatasaray, and were eliminated with an aggregate score of 3:4 and missed the Champions League quarterfinals.

Yang Muge's first Champions League journey in his career ended like this.

This is really a pity, but Yang Muge was still in a good mood when he was interviewed: "After all, it is my first time, I have accumulated experience, broadened my horizons, and know what the Champions League is like, I am already very satisfied, of course, I also hope to participate in the Champions League next season, and next, we have to work hard for this goal." ”

Yang Muge is right, in fact, the elimination of the Champions League is not necessarily a bad thing for Schalke 04.

Schalke 04's performance this season is really not stable enough, and a large part of this is due to the two-front battle in the domestic league and the Champions League, which makes Schalke 04 players very uncomfortable, and also leads to the dismissal of head coach Stevens.

Now that they have been eliminated from the Champions League, Schalke 04 can finally focus on the domestic league.

After the defeat to Borussia Dortmund, Schalke 04 fell to ninth in the league table, and the situation is quite grim and not optimistic. (To be continued.) )
