Chapter Seventy-Two: Fighting
When the game resumed, the Stadio São Paulo burst into cheer and the Napoli fans were still celebrating the goal and the situation. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
Although the second half has only just begun, the excited Napoli fans already think they have won it, and there can be no suspense and changes in this game.
Dortmund, who have one less man, are still playing away from home, two goals behind, and judging from the previous game, they have no advantage at all...... It would be hellish if Dortmund could turn the tables in such a game!
It is true that Borussia Dortmund's players have not yet been in the game since the restart, but there are always exceptions.
Zhou Yi has been observing the situation in front of him, especially when he is not taking the ball, and he is very concerned about Aubameyang's movement.
He saw that Aubameyang was actively looking for a vacancy, so he was relieved that the Gabonese striker was not as simple as he said he would say, he was really determined to do something for the team.
That's good, as long as there is fighting spirit, there is still hope. The most fearful thing is that if you lose your fighting spirit, no matter how many strategies you have, it is useless.
When Zhou Yi finally had the opportunity to get the ball, he had already prepared to pass the ball in advance, so he didn't stop the ball, but made a long pass directly to the football passed by his teammates!
The football flew straight in front of Aubameyang!
There's a blank space there!
Just in time for Aubameyang to make the most of his speed!
Sure enough, Aubameyang started quickly and accelerated forward, like a cheetah running on the African savannah, chasing the prey in front of him.
His sudden start completely caught Napoli off guard, and the Napoli players were still immersed in the dream of leading by two goals and one more person than their opponents, but they didn't expect Aubameyang to stab them behind them like a black lightning bolt!
"Zhou Yi's long ball is very accurate...... He's got Usain Bolt!ah no, it's Aubameyang!" He Ping was so excited that he misnamed Aubameyang.
But in a sense, Aubameyang is really Usain Bolt, because they are both very fast!
Aubameyang received a long ball from Zhou Yi and took two steps down the flank, then quickly cut inside and went straight into the Napoli penalty area.
The Napoli defenders, on the other hand, hurriedly retreated to shrink their defence.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang faced the duo of Albiol and Britos on the edge of the penalty area, but he would be even more dangerous if he could pass the ball out. But neither Mark nor Reuss are still a little far away from him – Zhou Yi's long ball is sudden, Aubameyang's pace is fast, and the two haven't caught up yet.
So Aubameyang had no choice but to shoot directly from the top of the penalty arc.
He tried to hold down the football, and the ball jumped forward on the turf, which would bring a certain degree of difficulty to the goalkeeper's save, so Napoli's goalkeeper Reina did not fall directly to the ground to hold the football, he was not sure, he chose the safest way - after falling to the ground, he slapped the football out with his hand!
The football changed lines and flew out of the bottom line.
There was a burst of exclamations from the stands at the Stadio de São Paulo, and the cheers of the Napoli fans had finally died down for the time being.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who didn't score, was frustrated and knew what a great opportunity Zhou Yi had created for him just now. But he didn't catch it, and he felt a little sorry for Zhou Yi.
So after holding his head in both hands, he turned around and gave Zhou Yi a thumbs up, thanking him for his wonderful transmission.
"Dortmund's counter-attack! Reina made a brilliant save! This was probably Dortmund's most dangerous attack of the game so far!"
"Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang started so fast! he shook off the Napoli defender almost instantly......
The reason why Zhou Yi went to Aubameyang was, of course, because of his speed advantage. In the physical fitness test of the Dortmund team, the Jia Peng striker, who spent the team's previous 3 million euros this summer, completed the 30-meter sprint in 3.7 seconds, which is the fastest in the team.
Even a player like Yan Min, who is known for his speed, can't outrun Aubameyang within 30 meters. Yan Min's advantage lies in the rapid change of pace, in high-speed running, he can constantly stop and accelerate to change direction, and he does not have an advantage in a simple straight sprint.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's 30-metre sprint was even faster than Usain Bolt, the world's fastest man. In 2009, when Usain Bolt set a new world record in the 100m with a time of 9.58 seconds, his speed in the first 30 meters was "only" 3.78 seconds......
Germany's "Bild" once said that Aubameyang may be the fastest player in the Bundesliga's 50-year history.
※※※
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's shot posed a threat to Dortmund, but Napoli were not discouraged by the goal, and they soon launched an attack and threatened the goal of Langrak's goal.
At that time, Callejon dribbled horizontally and then cleverly plugged through, and Insigne, who was in the penalty area, did not stop the ball, but chose to turn and shoot directly!
He didn't even look anywhere, but the shot dodged Langerk's fingers and rolled into the far corner.
If it hadn't been denied the post, Dortmund would have fallen behind by three goals......
"Oops, Insigne, alas!" shouted the Italian narrator with his head in his hands.
And Marcel Leif and Hepin both exclaimed, frightened.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's shot had made them happy and cheered up before, but now it seems that the fundamental problem has not been solved, and Dortmund is still in a passive situation.
Zhou Yi also knows that the situation will not change because of Aubameyang's one shot, and if you want to change, you need to constantly create opportunities that can threaten the opponent's goal, otherwise one or two shots on goal will only be down to "luck......
In order to be able to arouse the morale of the team, Zhou Yi also fought hard in this game, he ran more than before, of course this is normal, because Dortmund has one less person, and in order to recover the disadvantage caused by one less person, everyone else has to run more than usual.
However, in terms of physical confrontation, it can better reflect Zhou Yi's determination.
In previous competitions, Zhou Yi was not too keen on physical confrontation, and if he encountered physical confrontation, he would generally avoid walking. It's not cowardice, it's that it's not what he's good at, and it's stupid to fight with your opponent. Playing football is about playing to your strengths and avoiding your weaknesses.
But now Zhou Yi is unusual, even if it is some scrambling that requires physical confrontation, he seems to be very proactive.
It's not that he's guaranteed to get the ball, he's just hoping to boost morale - are his teammates embarrassed to see him fight so hard?
※※※
Zhou Yi's frantic participation in the scramble really touched his teammates.
Zhou Yi, who is the least good at physical confrontation in the team, is so desperate, are they just like this?
So the morale of the Dortmund players finally lifted up a bit.
Zhou Yi didn't stop fighting because of this, he still worked very hard. Because this is not enough, morale has just picked up, and it is far from time to relax.
Not only the ground ball, even if it is a high-altitude ball, Zhou Yi will also fight for the top.
In the 71st minute, Borussia Dortmund launched a wave of attacks, and Aubameyang's cross from the wing was headed out by Napoli's Spanish centre-back Albiol.
Zhou Yi plans to fight for the second drop point, which is like scrambling for frontcourt rebounds in a basketball game, and only by controlling the second drop point can Dortmund continue to attack. Only a continuous offensive campaign can pose a threat to this Napoli goal.
So Zhou Yi looked up at the flying football and jumped up.
Before he jumped, he noticed that there was a Napoli player behind him, but looking at the distance, he was a little far away from himself, Zhou Yi ran a special space, he didn't think the other party could get the ball before him. As long as he can push the football out first, even if the opponent rushes over to grab it, it will be a foul nine times out of ten.
Zhou Yi put all his attention on the football, jumping in the air to prepare a header to his teammates nearby, he was already optimistic, Mark was next to him, not far away, not too hard, he could use more power to control the accuracy of the header......
Just thinking about this, Zhou Yi suddenly felt a huge force coming from behind, and the force was as big as if he was hit from behind by a speeding truck, and his eyes were black.
I rub, who drove the car up!
This was Zhou Yi's last thought before he fell unconscious.
※※※
"Second drop point, hold the second drop point!" He Ping shouted. As time ran out, he became more and more anxious. When he saw Zhou Yi jump up and fight for the top, he put a little bit of heart, because the person who appeared in the second drop was a player from Dortmund, not Napoli.
But then he saw Inle leap up after a high-speed sprint and rushed towards Zhou Yi, obviously wanting to compete with Zhou Yi!
"Be careful......
Before he finished speaking, Inle collided with Zhou Yi, and his erected arm was just on the back of Zhou Yi's neck socket.
Inle, who jumped higher than Zhou Yi, hit the football and knocked Zhou Yi to the ground at the same time.
What made He Ping very worried was that when he saw Zhou Yi falling from the sky, he didn't have any self-protective conditioned reflex action, just like wrapping a sack, and smashed directly to the ground.
After falling to the ground, Zhou Yi did not roll and buffer, just lay on his side on the ground, motionless.
He Ping opened his mouth wide, but he didn't make a sound, he stared at the big screen in front of him with wide eyes.
There was a bad thought that came up from the depths of my heart.
