Chapter 169: Two Strategies
readx;? In the next game, as long as the football falls to the feet of the Dortmund players, the rhythm will immediately slow down, Zhou Yi led the Dortmund team to play the ball control, and move forward slowly, if the opportunity is not very good, then do not pass the football forward, in short, it is good to let the football stay at your feet for a second longer, and will not easily hand over the possession of the ball.

And when football falls to Atletico Madrid, it's a completely different style of painting. Atletico Madrid couldn't wait to kick the ball straight from the back into the Borussia Dortmund goal. When attacking forward, most of them are through and long passes, and they rarely pass back and forth in the middle and back.
Atletico Madrid want to be able to play straight into the heart of Borussia Dortmund with a simple and direct pass.
These two completely different styles reflect the different purposes of the two teams.
Borussia Dortmund are really coming for a draw, as Zhou Yi said before the game.
And Atletico Madrid's urgent attack, of course, is to hope that the sooner the goal is scored, the better, and the more goals scored the better.
It's their home stadium and it's a lot of work for them to not only win games on their home turf but also win more games without allowing them to score.
The diametrically opposed goals of the two teams led to completely different strategies and performances.
But it can't be said that Dortmund is necessarily a negative game, as long as there is a chance, Zhou Yi will definitely not be soft when he passes the ball forward.
Sun Pan can't be completely taken lightly.
Just like Lewandowski's shot a few minutes later, if Sun Pan hadn't been vigilant, the goal might have gone straight in.
※※※
The game was played in two completely different styles.
Although Atletico Madrid's attack was fierce and more frequent, they were not able to break through the goal guarded by Weidenfeller.
On the one hand, Dortmund's defense itself is very good, and on the other hand, the lack of troops invested in the attack allows Dortmund to put more energy into defense, which effectively reduces the threat of Atletico Madrid's attack.
At the same time, Atletico Madrid's attack, although fierce, lacks variety, is too direct, and makes it easier for Dortmund to defend.
So the score was so deadlocked, 0:0.
Until the end of the first half, the score did not change, and there was nothing to say about the scene, because there were not many wonderful scenes in the first half overall, and many times it was a stalemate and a mistake. Dortmund's counter-attacking chances were few and far between, and Atletico Madrid's attack was not a threat.
When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half, the players from both sides walked off the pitch with different comments from the commentators.
The Spanish commentator was not very satisfied with Atletico Madrid's performance in the first half, thinking that Atletico Madrid played too simple and rough in the first half, and it was useless to deal with a team like Dortmund, so simple and rude, they should have a richer routine in attack, if Zhou Yi was changed to Atletico Madrid's side, Atletico Madrid might have a two-goal lead in the first half.
German commentator Marcel Leif was pleased with Dortmund's performance, and he also agreed with Zhou Yi who said before the game that the goal of this game was a draw, and judging from the performance in the first half, Dortmund had already achieved half of the goal.
A 0-0 away draw at Atletico Madrid means that Dortmund's hopes of progressing to the semi-finals are more than 50 percent.
Chinese commentator He Ping was a little disappointed, as neither team played well in the first half, and neither Chinese player had too many bright spots. Zhou Yi is constantly passing and returning when he arrives, there are not many wonderful passes in the future, and Sun Pan's wonderful saves are also not many.
If this is the highest level of Chinese derby, it is really a disappointment for Chinese fans who stay up late in front of the TV.
As a Chinese fan, of course, I hope that everyone will play more openly in this game, and Dortmund will attack more forward, and it will be reversed from the current one. In this way, Zhou Yi can give us more wonderful passes in the attack, and Sun Pan also has more opportunities to perform.
Unfortunately, the opinions of neutral fans are often not cared for. Neither Borussia Dortmund nor Atletico Madrid will be able to abandon their established tactics in order to satisfy the wishes of Chinese fans.
At half-time, Jurgen Klopp praised his team's performance in the first half. In his opinion, the team played well in the first half and played like that in the second half. But he added that if there were better chances in the second half, then fight back resolutely – who wouldn't want to steal an away goal and a win away from home?
Of course, what is a "better opportunity", this Klopp did not explain, anyway, how to judge this kind of opportunity is left to Zhou Yi to do, Zhou Yi has proved that he has a high talent and ability in this area with countless games, so I believe that Zhou Yi is.
If Zhou Yi thinks that the opportunity is very good, of course, it is impossible to still fall in the backfield.

The atmosphere in the dressing room on the Dortmund side is relatively calm, and on the Atletico Madrid side, the dressing room atmosphere is a little tense. After all, this is their home stadium and they have wasted half the game on their home turf. There are only forty-five minutes left for them to do something, they have to score, and the sooner they score, the better.
Simeone kept his players on the edge of the dressing room, asking them to give it up and show courage in the second half.
Where's this like playing at your own home game?
It's like fighting to the death away from home......
When walking from the locker room to the court, Sun Pan also told his teammates to let them press up boldly and boldly, don't worry about defense, there is him behind, he said that if he doesn't let the opponent score, he will definitely not let the opponent score. This makes it possible to leave the defenders behind and use them in the offense.
Sun Pan is a goalkeeper, and he can't do much for the team's offense, which is the only way he can help the team's offense.
Although he and Zhou Yi are friends, since they met on the court, they are enemies, and if they are enemies, who cares about the enemy's feelings and thoughts, of course, they want to defeat the other party and let him go home.
And I believe that Zhou Yi must have the same idea.
No matter how much relationship there is off the field, as long as you see it on the court, it is one word - do!
Defeating the other party with all your best is the best respect for the other party.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again, Dortmund still looked unhurried, while Atletico Madrid's attack was more fierce.
Atletico Madrid, who strengthened their attack, was indeed more threatening, and in the first ten minutes of the second half, Atletico Madrid's attack was very fierce, threatening Dortmund's goal many times, making Weidenfeller and Dortmund's defenders scramble and deal with it very badly.
This period of time is finally more passionate than the first half, watching the Atletico Madrid fans in the Calderón stadium climax, as if the goal is in sight.
But unfortunately, Dortmund withstood Atletico Madrid's attack and did not concede a goal.
After ten minutes of continuous bombardment, Atletico Madrid still failed to break through Dortmund's goal, on the one hand, the physical fitness needs to be slowed down, and the rhythm must be slowed down. On the other hand, he is also worried that the space behind him will be used by Dortmund to fight back, although Sun Pan took the initiative to say that everyone can not worry about the back, but no one will really ignore the defense like this.
Atletico Madrid slowed down as a result.
Atletico Madrid has slowed down, and Dortmund's pace has not been lifted because of this.
They are still unhurried with Atletico Madrid.
As Dortmund did so, boos rang out over Calderón.
At first, the boos were sporadic and then louder.
Obviously, Atletico Madrid fans are very dissatisfied with Dortmund's deliberate delay in the game and negative play.
Of course, they wish that Dortmund could press up and attack Atletico Madrid on all fronts, anyway, they have Sun Pan behind them, and they are not afraid of Dortmund's attack. However, after Dortmund pressed the attack on all fronts, there will be many holes in the backline, which can be seized and exploited by Atletico Madrid.
However, under the cheeky leadership of Zhou Yi, the whole Dortmund team turned a blind eye to the boos of Atletico Madrid fans, and even though they booed the sky, they did not change their tactical play at all.
Dortmund is in such a hurry, if they don't come up, Atletico Madrid can't afford to wait.
If this game continues to drag on like this, it will be bad for Atletico Madrid in the end - Dortmund can accept a 0:0 away game, but Atletico Madrid absolutely can't accept it!
So Atletico Madrid, who didn't have much to catch their breath, had to press up and grab the ball at the feet of the Dortmund players in the midfield. Fortunately, their physical fitness is relatively good, otherwise they really can't run.
But Dortmund's physical fitness is not bad, under the leadership of Zhou Yi, everyone passes and runs very closely, because they are always running, so the players with the ball can always find the route of passing, so that the Atletico Madrid players can easily break the ball by pressing, so Dortmund's passing runs smoothly.
During this time, Zhou Yi exerted his ability to pass the ball without observing to the extreme, no matter how the Atletico Madrid players pressed, he could pass the football before the opponent. So in the end, the Atletico Madrid players had no choice but to foul Zhou Yi.
But there's no point in doing so. Because they fouled Zhou Yi, the game would be interrupted, and the interruption of the game was the result that Dortmund wanted to see.
The foul would also put Atletico Madrid's players at risk of being carded, adding uncertainty to the second leg.
However, the fans of Atletico Madrid don't care so much, they only see Zhou Yi being touched by Atletico Madrid's players and knocked down, so as long as Zhou Yi takes the ball, the boos are simply deafening.
In the minds of many Atletico Madrid players, Zhou Yi is completely equated with "fake falls......
But in fact, every time you watch the slow-motion replay, you can know that there is no problem with the foul of the Atletico Madrid player, and Zhou Yi's fall is justified. (To be continued)).
