In everyone's puzzled eyes, Zhou Yi followed his teammates in Dortmund out of the players' tunnel and stepped on the turf of the West**** stadium. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

After a summer break, he was finally back on the pitch again. The madness of the London Olympics seems like it was yesterday, but now he has to switch modes and switch from the national team to the club team.

The two teams have different tactical styles, different levels of teammates, and even his roles in the team are different - in the national Olympic team he is the captain, not only responsible for leading the team technically and tactically, but also more responsible for some captain's work, while in Dortmund his position is relatively simple, is the commander on the field, but not the captain, at least he does not need to do such things as guessing the side of the coin.

Before the players came out, DJ Nobby of the stadium was introducing the players in the starting list, and when he called Zhou Yi's name, the home fans responded the loudest, which very well shows Zhou Yi's position in the hearts of Dortmund fans.

After Shinji Kagawa left the team, rumors about Zhou Yi wanting to transfer and leave were also flying, but Zhou Yi took the initiative to say that he wanted to stay, which earned him a high reputation among Dortmund fans.

The start of this game was somewhat unexpected. Let's take a look at his performance in this game!" But when a close-up of Zhou Yi appeared on the TV screen, German TV announcer Marcel Leif said.

The reporters in the media table also had their eyes on him, and they also wanted to see how he did in the game.

Borussia Dortmund's opponent in this game is Werder Bremen, who finished ninth in the league last season, and this summer's main striker Pizarro moved to Bayern Munich, Rosenberg moved to West Bromwich Albion, Marin moved to Chelsea, Naldo moved to Wolfsburg, and goalkeeper Wiese moved to Hoffenheim, and these transfers had a great impact on Werder Bremen.

For example, striker Pizarro, who was the team's main striker last season, combined with Rosenberg to contribute 25 goals to the team. Now that the two main strikers are gone, only Petersen, who is on loan from Bayern Munich, is still the starting force in the forward position of Werder Bremen.

Midfielder Marin was not in good form last season and was expected to find his form this season, but was poached by Chelsea, and the main goalkeeper Wiese, who performed well last season, also moved to Hoffenheim on a free transfer. So now this squad is actually worse than last season, last season's Werder Bremen performance was a failure, let alone this season.

Before the season, the German media believed that Werder TBremen's main goal this season was not to compete for Champions League qualification or Europa League qualification, but to relegate ......

From the start of the game, Dortmund took advantage of the home advantage to take the initiative, which did not surprise everyone. After all, even without Zhou Yi, the difference in strength between Dortmund and Werder Bremen is very huge, and Werder Bremen basically does not have the strength to challenge Dortmund away from home.

Everyone is mainly looking at Zhou Yi.

Judging from the position on the court, Zhou Yi is still in the position of the back waist, and he and Gundogan are almost on the same line.

However, in this game, Dortmund did not play two midfielders, but three back midfielders - Zhou Yi, Gundogan, and the veteran captain Kyle, who started in place of the injured Sven Bender.

On the flanks are Gotze and Reuss.

Lewandowski was at the front as a single arrow.

The midfield is the same as last season, with five men, but without a midfielder.

Don't Dortmund want a midfielder?

It's not impossible not to have a forward midfielder, but now there are fewer and fewer forward midfielders to organize attacks...... The midfielders are more like shadow strikers, responsible for scoring goals, while the task of organising the attack is given to the midfielders or central midfielders who are further back than them.

Soon everyone could see how Zhou Yi was active.

In the absence of Shinji Kagawa, his front is actually relatively empty, and no one is blocking him, so when Dortmund attacks, he will go up and put the position on the premise, which is about the same as a forward position.

Before Shinji Kagawa came to Dortmund, Zhou Yi played in a similar position in the season when he became famous.

It's just that the slight difference between now and then is that Zhou Yi's position is not fixed in the front and back, and he will change his position at any time according to the situation on the court. Compared to the season when he debuted in Dortmund, he played more flexibly, but everything is the same, and this kind of play is no stranger to Zhou Yi.

“...... I see, when Shinji Kagawa came, he originally occupied Zhou Yi's position, and after he left, the position that originally belonged to Zhou Yi returned to Zhou Yi's feet, so his adaptation time must be shorter than most people think......" Marcel Leif analyzed.

This is really something that many people didn't expect before, everyone just thought about leaving, new people came, the lineup changed, and they had to adapt again, but they didn't expect Klopp to go back to the old road......

In fact, this was not Klopp's idea alone, he did it after asking Zhou Yi.

When Zhou Yi decided that he would not be able to participate in the training camp because of the Olympics, Klopp called Zhou Yi in London, and the two talked on the phone for about 40 minutes. Finally, the plan was decided.

Zhou Yi asked Klopp not to worry about his absence from the pre-season training camp, so he can't cooperate with the team, of course, he can't say that it is because he has a virtual system, which can train with Dortmund's players in the virtual system, he just put forward an idea, saying that whether he plays in the back or the front, he does the same thing, connecting the previous and the next, and organizing the attack.

And the Dortmund team is also used to working with themselves, so nothing has changed, and the team and him can adapt very quickly.

Jurgen Klopp weighed it up and decided to go with his current style of play.

When Zhou Yi ended the Olympics and returned to the team, Klopp arranged for Zhou Yi to join the team and play an internal teaching match with the youth team, which naturally surprised and delighted him.

The reason for the surprise is that Zhou Yi really has no adaptation period, his performance is not unfamiliar, and the team is also a good match for him, except that Zhou Yi is in average condition because of some fatigue, it really makes people not see that he is a player who has not participated in the pre-season training camp......

Zhou Yi's performance strengthened Klopp's confidence, and at the same time, he also asked Zhou Yi to concentrate on physical recovery training and physical reserve training in the next 20 days, laying a good foundation for the next new season.

Because of the ample time for physical training, Zhou Yi's physical fitness is not as bad as the outside world thinks.

This is reflected on the court, that is, Zhou Yi seems to have a personal impression that is no different from the past......

The football kept coming to Zhou Yi's feet from different directions, and after Zhou Yi's processing, it was passed to different directions. He was constantly running on the pitch, from one place to another, and was involved in the team's attack throughout.

Always be there where he is needed.

After his combing, Dortmund's attack advanced very smoothly.

In the 11th minute, he instigated an attack in midfield, and after three passes, he passed the ball to Reuss, who received the ball and fired a shot from inside the box that flew into the Werder Bremen goal.

Borussia Dortmund take the lead 1:0!

Reus also scored his first league goal since returning to Borussia Dortmund.

Reus was thrilled after the goal and ran to the South Stand, waving his fist at the fans in the South Stand.

And the fans in the South Stand responded with the most enthusiastic cheers.

"Royce! beautiful!" exclaimed Marcel Leif excitedly. "It's only been eleven minutes and he's scored! And it's his first league goal for Borussia Dortmund!

Zhou Yi, who assisted Royce, ran to him with his teammates to celebrate the goal, and then Gotze pulled Zhou Yi in front of Royce, and said with a smile: "Hey, Marco, this is the 'Zhou Yi's welcome ceremony' I told you!"

"Thank you, Zhou Yi!" Royce hugged him and shouted.

"Hey, what are you talking about behind my back?" Zhou Yi was very strange.

"No, no, praise you. Gotze waved his hand repeatedly.

At the beginning of the pre-season training camp, Reus was a little apprehensive about returning to Dortmund, after all, he left the team at a very young age, and when he returned, Dortmund had won the Bundesliga for two consecutive seasons, as a wanderer who had been away from home for many years, it was inevitable that he would be a little nervous to return to his hometown, and he didn't know if he could satisfy the Dortmund fans in the South Stand.

As a good friend of his, Götze comforted him, and in order to reassure him, he also said a term that Royce was very unfamiliar with, called "Zhou Yi's welcome ceremony".

That is to say, those players who have just joined the team, or who have returned from injury and need to build confidence, will be cared for by Zhou Yi in the game, and this care will generally be reflected by Zhou Yi's meticulous nanny assist.

After Shinji Kagawa returned from injury, he was assisted by Zhou Yi in the first game.

What's even more amazing is that even if Zhou Yi can't play, he can use mysterious oriental witchcraft to help his teammates score.

For example, when Barrios transferred to Dortmund and did not score for several rounds in a row, he was criticized and pressured, it was Zhou Yi's prediction that allowed Barrios to break the goal drought and get out of control...... In the end, Barrios became the top scorer in the Bundesliga, and Zhou Yiju was a great contributor......

Royce thought it was amazing, he had heard of Zhou Yi's nickname "Wizard", and he probably knew what it was, but he thought it should be a gimmick created by reporters to attract attention, but listening to what Gotze said seriously, is it true?

Seeing that Royce wasn't convinced, Gotze asked him to wait for verification at that time.

Sure enough, in this first league game, Royce was assisted by Zhou Yi to score......

At that time, Zhou Yi's pass was indeed very comfortable, Reus hardly had to make any unnecessary adjustments, and the football was right at the right foot that he was best at, and he could shoot directly without changing to the other side. It was a detail that I didn't think too much about at the time of the re-shooting, but after thinking about the goal, especially remembering what Gotze said, Reus had to believe that this was really "Zhou Yi's welcome ceremony......

He seems to have thought about everything for the receiver when passing the ball, allowing the receiver to minimize the connection after receiving the ball, so as to buy more time and space for the receiver.

Royce had never fought side by side with Zhou Yi before, but he had a few encounters as an opponent, but being an opponent and being a teammate are completely different experiences, at least being an opponent can't understand the mystery hidden in Zhou Yi's seemingly ordinary passes......

While thanking Zhou Yi, his eyes were full of some unknown mysterious existence when he looked at Zhou Yi...... Adore.

Sure enough, he is worthy of being a "wizard"!

The simple Royce couldn't have imagined that in fact, Zhou Yi had trained with him many times in the virtual space, and he knew his characteristics well, just like playing football together since childhood, it was not uncommon to be able to send such a pass...... (To be continued.) )
