Chapter 43: Deserved
The Chinese players were celebrating their third goal, and it was easy to think that they had equalised or reversed the game.
So the players of the Dortmund youth team who saw this scene were a little disdainful.
"Isn't there anything to be happy about when they just scored a goal?
"yes, yes, that's really good luck......"
"That kid clearly wanted to cross, but the kick was wrong and turned into a shot, what shit luck!"
Just when everyone was expressing their disdain for this, Gotze suddenly said, "But don't you feel uncomfortable?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.
Yes, they all feel uncomfortable. It is precisely because they feel unhappy that they find excuses to hide their true emotions with disdain.
Gotze turned his head to look at the Chinese team, who had finished their celebrations and were running back, everyone gathered around the number 16 who scored the goal.
I've already scored a hat-trick in this game, plus an assist, but why do you still think that No.16 is the most showy guy?

"Two assists, one goal! Is this surprise enough?" Xu Yang asked Hao Dong excitedly.
"This kid's performance is even better than anyone expected of him!" Hao Dong was also very happy. "I have an idea, Xu Zhi. From this game on, let Zhou Yi be the core of this team, not He Ying. This team has to revolve around Zhou Yilai, and Zhou Yi controls the whole team on the court, and he has the ability!"
Xu Yang, who was excited, did not object, he nodded: "Well, with such a performance, he also has enough prestige and persuasiveness to be the core of the team!"
Liang Qiqi sat in his chair, and his substitute teammates around him stood up to cheer for the goal, but he was stunned.
He originally thought that after Zhou Yi's physical energy was exhausted, his performance would plummet, and he was finally embarrassed and replaced by himself.
Unexpectedly, this kid scored a goal in such a situation!
With such a performance, even Liang Qiqi himself didn't dare to say that he could snatch the starter back from Zhou Yi......
Isn't this kid an amateur player?
Isn't he the weakest of our ranks?
Why?
Why did he play like that?
Klopp rubbed his hands together excitedly, his eyes under the lenses reflecting the glow of the gold in front of him.
Yes, he found a piece of gold, and although it is not perfect, his future is worth looking forward to.
At this moment, Klopp made a decision.

After the restart, Borussia Dortmund launched a fierce attack on the Chinese goal, and they wanted to continue scoring before the end of the game, and Zhou Yi's goal made the score 5:3: this is not a score that will satisfy the Dortmund youth players.
The Chinese team was recycled across the board, with Guo Nu, Yang Muge and Sun Pan active in defence. Especially Guo Nu, with his excellent physical fitness, against the players of Dortmund, he can still not get at a disadvantage.
At this time, people found out that Guo Nu has always been dragged down by his character flaws, in fact, his physical fitness may be one of the best in this Chinese team, although he is not tall, but he has an excellent bounce, he is short, and his center of gravity is low, so he is stocky and difficult to be knocked away. Strong explosiveness and fast turning.
Such a person, a cameo as a central defender, performs better than a genuine central defender......
Zhou Yi couldn't run at all, he was at the front of the team's big penalty area, doing symbolic defensive work.
Yang Muge knew Zhou Yi's situation, so he ran more actively to help Zhou Yi make up for his shortcomings.
Even He Ying withdrew to help defend.
Under the stubborn defense of the Chinese team, until the end of the game, they were stunned that they did not let the Dortmund youth team score another goal!
In the end, the Chinese teenagers lost to the Dortmund youth team with a score of 3:5 at the training base in Dortmund.

Although they lost the game, when the game was over, the players and coaches of the Chinese team, even the staff of the film crew, were happy.
After losing four games in a row and not scoring a single goal in those four games, the significance of the game can no longer be measured simply by winning or losing.
For them, scoring goals and playing well on the pitch is improvement.
I believe that anyone who watched this game should not be scolded so badly anymore.
We lost because we were really inferior in strength.
But there are many ways to lose, and in today's game, the way the Chinese teenagers lost is exciting and hopeful.
More important than the result is the spirit that was shown, and losing like the previous four games would have made it hopeless.
When the young players got off the court, assistant coach Xu Yang stood on the sidelines and high-fived them one by one: "Good kick!" "Good job!" "Good performance!" "Improvement!"
He encouraged and comforted the children one by one.
However, the teenagers who were encouraged and comforted all had more or less smiles on their faces, which was completely different from the expressions they had after the previous games.
When it was Zhou Yi's turn, Xu Yang did not simply give him a high-five, but directly gave him a hug.
"You kid!" he also rubbed Zhou Yi's hair affectionately, making his hair particularly messy.
Zhou Yi lay in Xu Yang's arms, and he had no strength to resist, so he had to mess up his hairstyle.
Don't care about the principle of "the head can be broken, the blood can flow, and the hairstyle can't be messed up".
On the other side, head coach Hao Dong is shaking hands with Borussia Dortmund's youth director Ricken.
Because he is the president of the club, there are a lot of things, so he left after watching the first half.
"To be honest, I was surprised, Hao. You're stronger than we thought. All three balls are beautiful. Ricken praised from the bottom of his heart.
Hao Dong did not choose the inherent virtue of Chinese modesty at this time: "They are all first-class in China at the age of seventeen!"
"Seeing them, I believe that there is hope for the future of football in your country. I don't know if Ricken's words were out of polite compliments, or if he was really fooled by Hao Dong's sincere words.
However, everyone in China is happy to hear this.
※※※
In stark contrast to the joy of the Chinese teenagers who lost, the performance of the Dortmund youth team players after the game.
Although they won, everyone was not happy.
Especially in the final stage of the game, after letting the Chinese team score another goal, they desperately tried to expand the score, but never succeeded, it felt like they had lost.
Compare them to their pre-match thoughts, and before the game they thought they could easily win by double digits.
Who would have thought that they had scored only five goals and then let the opponent score three goals! They were the ones who were behind twice in the game and conceded first.
It's a shame.
So although they obviously won, the expressions on everyone's faces are not very good-looking.
Gotze also didn't celebrate the victory after the game, which for him wasn't a victory anymore, it was almost a defeat.
He set his sights on the Chinese players who lost.
He saw the number 10 player who scored the goal standing in front of the camera, and a Chinese cameraman was filming and interviewing him.
As a Chinese player who scored twice in this game, it is not surprising that he enjoys such treatment.
But Gotze quickly looked away and turned to another person, the number 16 of the Chinese team.
The man was being supported by their goalkeeper and was sitting on the turf on the edge of the training ground, where several men surrounded him.
They were talking, he was laughing, a little tired from laughing, but he was laughing anyway.
As a midfielder, Gotze was impressed with the number 16 during the game.
Thinking of this, he suddenly walked towards Sixteen.

"The position of the main starter is stable!" Sun Pan rubbed Zhou Yi's thigh muscles while saying to Zhou Yi, "That Liang Qiqi will stick his ass to the bench!"
Zhou Yi smiled and did not speak. It's not that he wants to pretend to be forced at this time, but he really has no strength. As a student player, he had never experienced such a high-intensity ninety minutes of play. Whether it is playing in the school football league, participating in the national audition finals of the reality show, or even the current internal confrontation of the team, there is no way to compare with this game.
The first time he participated in such a competition, he played a full 90 minutes, which was indeed a very severe test and challenge for his physical fitness.
He had a deeper understanding of the strength and physical fitness that Coach Hao Dong asked him to practice for two weeks after joining the team.
If I hadn't trained seriously, I was afraid that I would have to be replaced after the first half.
And it's just a youth team level game, not a real professional league.
My goal is to be a professional footballer, and if you want to improve your professional game, you still have a long way to go and a lot of work to do.
Yang Muge was rubbing the muscles of Yang Muge's other leg, and he was also full of praise for Zhou Yi's performance: "Yes, with Zhou Yi on the court, I have played much more steadily." At least you don't have to rush up and have to retreat to defend right away......"
Guo Nu squatted next to Zhou Yi and said to Zhou Yi: "Thank you, thank you, Zhou Yi." ”
Although the team conceded five goals in this game, Guo Nu had mistakes that led to the loss of the ball, and there were also mistakes that did not lead to the loss of the ball, and there were times when the emotions were out of control in the game, but every time Zhou Yi would immediately shout at him to keep him calm. If it weren't for Zhou Yi, he wouldn't have been able to hold out on the court until the end of the game.
Zhou Yi finally relieved himself, he turned his head to Guo Nu and smiled and said, "Let's continue in the evening, old Guo ......"
"I'm going, I'm coming back?!" Sun Pan was shocked, "That, the game has just ended, you see you're exhausted, I think we'd better take a rest tonight, Zhou Yi?"
"I'm just sitting and moving my temper, what do I have to be tired of?Old Guo, are you tired?" Zhou Yi turned to Guo Nu and asked.
"Don't be tired!" Guo Nu blurted out, and after speaking, he saw Sun Pan's murderous gaze staring at him.
He cowered his neck, but he didn't change his mind.
At this moment, suddenly a person appeared next to them.
"Hey!" he greeted those present in German.
And after the four of them saw who was coming, they were all a little surprised.
※※※
It was not only Zhou Yi and the other four who were surprised, but also everyone present, who all locked their eyes on that area when they saw Gotze suddenly walk next to Zhou Yi.
They wondered what Gotze was doing when he suddenly went to the players of the Chinese team.
Even Ricken, who was talking to Hao Dong, was a little surprised.
"Hello. Zhou Yi said to Ge Ce in English that he was no stranger to Ge Ting because in the virtual system, he had already fought with this person thirty-two times.
Gotze was very happy to see Zhou Yi respond to him, and he took off the Dortmund jersey on his body very quickly and handed it to Zhou Yi.
Although the two people don't understand the language, everyone can understand this action - this is to change the jersey!
"Damn, awesome!" Sun Pan exclaimed beside him.
Not counting this one, the Chinese teenagers have played four games in Europe, and in these four games, none of the Chinese players have successfully exchanged jerseys - because no one changes, as soon as the game is over, they shake hands with each other and leave.
Unexpectedly, the first case of Chinese teenagers exchanging jerseys happened to Zhou Yi, and ...... They still took the initiative to find it!
Zhou Yi saw Ge Ce's move, and quickly stood up from the ground, he understood what Ge Ce meant.
He also took off his sweat-soaked jersey and handed it to Gotze.
While taking the jersey, Gotze also shook hands with Zhou Yi, and then gave Zhou Yi a thumbs up.
Although he didn't speak, this series of actions, fools know what it means.
Obviously, there are so many people in the Chinese team, and only Zhou Yi has been recognized and appreciated by the number one star of the Dortmund youth team.
He Ying, who was being filmed and interviewed by the camera, also turned his head to look at Zhou Yi.
The cameraman also shook the camera over.
He saw that Gotze was exchanging jerseys with Zhou Yi, and He Ying's behavior of turning his head to look made him think that He Ying was very disappointed, after all, He Ying scored two goals in this game, it stands to reason that if you want to exchange jerseys, it should also be to exchange with He Ying.
So he comforted: "Maybe Gotze saw you being interviewed, so he went to look for you......"
Unexpectedly, He Ying turned his head and interrupted him: "No, that's what Zhou Yi deserves." ”
He had a smile on his face, faint, but sincere.
