Chapter 335: Intimidated Inter
After Mark receives the ball, he moves the ball forward. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Lucio braked sharply, turned and swooped back, but it was already slow.
Mark was decisive, leaving him behind and rushing towards the Inter goal alone.
"Mark Wagner! Great opportunity—" Marcel shouted excitedly, his voice lengthened.
"Mark, Mark!" cried Mrs. Wagner in front of the TV, crying, and she was about to pounce on the TV screen.
Cortana, who was forcibly called home by her mother to watch the game, also clenched her fists at this time, and her body trembled slightly.

As soon as he got to the top of the penalty arc, Cesar was already rushing to the penalty spot. The distance between the two sides is very close and is rapidly decreasing.
At this time, Mark did not hesitate and shot directly with his feet!
The inside of the right foot made an arc towards the far post.
Although Cesar made a save and also touched the football. But it was too far away, and he just rubbed the tips of his fingers and didn't really change the direction of the football.
The strong spin of the football is still flying forward according to the trajectory that Mark has set for him.
After making an arc, the ball hit the far post...... inside, and then it fell inside the goal line!
The ball is in!
Fly into the goal of Inter Milan for the third time!
"Ahh
"Mark Wagner's brace! Well done! Unfortunately, time is running out for Dortmund, if it weren't for one less, I think Dortmund could have drawn this game......" He Ping cheered and regretted Dortmund.
※※※
The Meazza Stadium fell into a somewhat awkward silence as the ball flew into the goal.
They really didn't expect that their team was four goals ahead, and in the end, they could only chase one goal, which was simply ...... Embarrassed!
Is this the performance of the defending champions?
What a shame!
We're one more than them!
In the silence, Mark turned around and wanted to run to celebrate his brace, but he saw Zhou Yi waving to him and shouting: "Go pick up the ball, Mark!
Zhou Yi woke up Mark - yes, we are still one ball away!
So he turned around again, ran back to the Inter penalty area, surged all the way to the goal, picked up the football, and then turned and ran towards the centre circle.
The other players who wanted to come up to celebrate the goal were stopped by Zhou Yi: "We are only one goal away, and the game is not over yet!"
The implication is ...... We're going to equalize!
Everyone was stunned for a moment, but they also reacted, they didn't think that Zhou Yi was whimsical-since we all chased from 0:4 to 3:4, then why was it whimsical to score another goal? Isn't this normal?
Now that the morale of the team is high, what is impossible?
Let's do it!
※※※
Seeing Mark running back with a football in his arms, the commentators discovered Dortmund's ambitions.
"They want to score again?"
"It's eighty-nine minutes...... It's about to go into stoppage time, how much time can there be in stoppage time? The second half was actually quite smooth, just four minutes at the top...... Can you score another goal in four minutes?"
'Now Borussia Dortmund have just scored, morale is high and they do look unstoppable. But Inter Milan must be fools too, they are only one goal ahead now, don't they recycle the defense? Now on the field, Inter Milan has six defenders, and they are almost unable to stand in the penalty area, as long as they shrink their defense, there is no space left for Dortmund, and it is not easy to score again...... Dortmund's previous goals were all on the counter-attack, and there were no goals in the real positional battle, isn't that telling?"
※※※
Klopp couldn't hear the commentators, and he jumped from the ground in excitement after Mark scored.
This ball proves that his decision is right, as long as Zhou Yi is left on the court, everything is possible!
Four minutes to go...... Maybe it's really not impossible!
※※※
Mark quickly ran back to the center circle, then put the ball in the center circle and exited the center circle.
The Inter players only reacted at this time.
They looked at each other, and the 4:0 lead of the opponent seemed to be just a second ahead, but they didn't expect to be chased by the opponent by only one point in the blink of an eye......
It's so amazing, there's a sense of unreality, as if they're dreaming.
Benitez was on the sidelines, his face flushed and now blue.
If the team can comply with its own adjustments, why did it get to this point?
It was a two-goal lead, but now it became a one-goal lead, and the air suddenly became tense.
He switched to two defenders one after another, but they all ignored the signals they sent...... Okay now, have you been taught a lesson?
But Benitez wasn't happy at all.
Because if you can't win this game, it won't do you any good for yourself!
He now hopes that Mark's goal will completely wake up the Inter players and make them honestly recover the defense in the last few minutes, no matter what, hold on to this point lead first!
And in fact, the Inter players are now really intimidated by Dortmund's momentum.
Before, they thought they were going to teach Dortmund a lesson with goals, but now they don't. They realised that if they continued to press out like this, it was not impossible to score another goal before the end of the game......
Borussia Dortmund have obviously lost their eyes, and the Inter Milan players have to put together their previous contempt and take the game seriously.
So after the game restarted, Inter Milan kicked off but did not rush to attack, but kept falling in the backfield, hoping to drag the game a little longer.
In their inverted foot, ninety minutes of play time came to an end.
The fourth official held up a sign for stoppage time on the sidelines, and as expected, it was four minutes!
"Four minutes of stoppage time...... If Dortmund are to find an equaliser, they have only four minutes left...... It's hard, and even though Dortmund have done a good job, I'd still say it's hard. Marcel Leif said. "Now that the ball is still in Inter's control, Dortmund first have to take possession back and then attack, and they probably don't have too many chances, they have to find a way to break the Inter goal in the shortest amount of time and the fewest attempts, it's too difficult!"
In the face of Inter Milan's inverted feet in the backfield, Dortmund pressed almost all the lines and frantically surrounded Inter Milan. Seeing such a run, it is really hard to believe that they have one less person from the first eleven minutes of the race, and they have run for eighty minutes with ten people.
But this is exactly what Dortmund can do, because Klopp is a coach who attaches great importance to physical fitness and running ability, Dortmund has been training for two years in the preseason, physical training is the top priority, and Dortmund's players have improved their running ability in hellish training, so they can everyone tirelessly run from the beginning of the game to the end of the game.
And because of this, at this time, they still have the energy to entangle and fight with Inter Milan in every corner of the stadium in order to snatch that football.
※※※
Borussia Dortmund's desperate style of play has left a lot of space behind them, and Inter Milan have naturally seen it, as long as they can send the football up, they can play a very threatening counterattack and beat Dortmund.
This time, however, Inter Milan seemed hesitant and did not do so.
Because they are worried that after going up, the opponent will get possession and play a counterattack.
The time of conceding the third goal is not far away, which is still fresh in everyone's memory.
Inter Milan were not in a hurry, just fell in the back, and then attracted Dortmund's players to come up and save, and little by little to push their formation forward.
Time flew by in this backward foot, and in the blink of an eye, the four minutes of stoppage time were two and a half minutes, and it was only a minute and a half before the end.
Maybe it's because time is running out of time, or maybe it's because it feels like this counterattack will definitely get a goal and beat Dortmund.
Anyway, Inter ended their boring inversion at this time and passed the football forward.
When "Cheetah" Eto'o caught up with football, he was actually the only Inter Milan player in the front field, and everyone else remained at the back. This is also for security reasons, so as not to be hit by Dortmund again.
Anyway, it would be good if the goal could be scored, but it didn't matter if it couldn't, there was not much time left for Dortmund.
Samuel Eto'o took the ball and rushed towards the Borussia Dortmund penalty area, causing Dortmund defenders to rush to intercept him.
Because he was alone, without support, Eto'o's fitness also decreased significantly, so Eto'o eventually lost the ball in the middle of Dortmund's back three.
Hummels then quickly passed the ball to Sven Bender – Zhou Yi didn't return to the front court, and he was probably tired enough.
"Borussia Dortmund played the ball forward, but they didn't choose to go big, they still played the ground pass...... There isn't much time left for Dortmund, so hurry up!" He Ping said anxiously.
After Sven Bender got the ball, he was not too far away from Zhou Yi, and he moved forward and passed the football to Zhou Yi.
This time, Inter Milan made a tight place for Zhou Yi, and Zanetti immediately posted it to prevent Zhou Yi from turning around with the ball.
Zhou Yi took the ball, pouted his buttocks, and pushed Zanetti behind him.
Zanetti wanted to break the ball, but he couldn't reach the football, stretched out his foot and was afraid of fouls, giving Dortmund a chance to take a set-piece, and when the time came, the central defenders with excellent headers such as Hummels and Subotic rushed to the goal, and the pressure was too great......
So he didn't foul.
Zhou Yi waited a little.
Mark ran over.
Seeing Mark who came up to pick him up, Zhou Yi passed the football to him. Then he turned and ran forward, not too fast, but Zanetti followed him.
Mark did not pass the football back to Zhou Yi, but made a diagonal pass to Lewandowski, who was withdrawn.
After Lewandowski retreated, Inter Milan's central defender Lucio also came up behind him to prevent him from turning easily.
After he came up, Samuel, who was already on the ribs, moved closer to the middle to fill in - Córdoba defended Gotze on the other side.
However, the distance between him and full-back McCone has widened.
This gap was seen by Zhou Yi.
He sped up to Lewandowski to meet the Polish striker, who couldn't turn.
Of course, Zanetti is still with him.
Lewandowski saw Zhou Yi running up, and he couldn't turn around, so he simply passed the football to Zhou Yi, and then turned around and ran inside.
Zhou Yi did not stop the ball, but faced the ball from Lewandowski and picked up his right foot, looking as if he was going to hit the wall with Lewandowski, but in fact, he used the outside of his right foot to cut the football to the right!
The ball sped forward against the turf, drawing a not-so-obvious arc that slipped through the gap between Samuel and McConn and went straight behind the Inter defence!
"Zhou Yi!" his pass penetrated Inter Milan's defense again!" He Ping exclaimed.
