Chapter Twenty-Five: The First Voice
Before the game, media pundits were indeed not very optimistic about Dortmund's victory over Bayern Munich in the Super Cup. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
But when the game started, things were a little different from what they expected.
Just six minutes into the game, Borussia Dortmund launched a dangerous attack.
After Lewandowski left, he took his shirt number, and Marcla, who wore the number nine shirt, went to the right and Reus passed the ball to him, an anti-offside position.
After receiving the ball, Mark did not dribble along the wing, but directly crossed the ball to the back of the Bayern Munich penalty area.
Sven Bender goes to the top 10 yards from goal!
"Bender!!"
The ball went straight to the back corner of the goal, and Neuer swooped down to lift the ball up.
But because Sven Bender's head was very powerful and the angle was also very awkward, Neuer was moving forward at the time, and it was not easy to touch the football in the face of the football that was pushed behind him......
He couldn't control how far the ball was saved.
As a result, the football did not even come out of the small penalty area......
In this place, Zhou Yi, who was plugged in behind, accelerated smartly and rushed up against the football, and then rushed to the top with a header!
This time, Neuer couldn't do anything about it, he could only watch the football being pushed into the goal by Zhou Yi not far from him!
"Zhou Yi-!!TOOOOOOOOOOO!! he opened the scoring for Borussia Dortmund just six minutes into the game!!" Marcel Leif exclaimed excitedly.
And the whole West** stadium was already like an erupting crater, and everyone jumped up from their seats, raised their arms and shouted.
Yan Min, who was sitting in the box, was no exception, the moment the football flew into the goal, he jumped up and waved his fist vigorously: "Good ball!!"
※※※
After the goal, Zhou Yi ran to Mark who crossed from the wing, and the two hugged each other, then he turned to wave to Sven Bender and motioned for him to come up and celebrate.
In fact, he didn't have to wave, not only Sven Bender, but also the Dortmund players in the front field rushed up and surrounded them to celebrate the goal.
Before the game, everyone was saying that Dortmund was going to be at a disadvantage in the competition with Bayern Munich this time, and after the end of last season, Bayern Munich poached two core players of Dortmund in a row, which made many Dortmund players grit their teeth with hatred for this competitor, and everyone held their breath in their chests, wanting those who doubted them to see if Dortmund had been poached by Bayern Munich!

After the initial cheers, live radio host Norbert Darker shouted: "In the sixth minute, Dortmund took the lead!
He asked, deliberately prolonged.
And the fans at West** Stadium responded to him with a very loud voice: "--Zhou Yi!!"
The neat answer was immense.
Even if Yan Min was in the closed box, he could still feel the voices of the Dortmund fans rushing towards him. If this is on the court, I am afraid that the impact will be stronger......
I didn't expect to watch Dortmund's game live for the first time, and I experienced the magic of Dortmund's home stadium.
He is even more excited about his future at Dortmund.
"That's amazing......" he muttered as he looked into the pitch.
※※※
Dortmund took the lead in the opening six minutes, which did surprise many.
Doesn't it mean that Dortmund didn't have much training in the pre-season camp?
How is it that in terms of the time they have been in the game, they have been faster than Bayern Munich, who should have been in excellent form?
The Bayern Munich players were also stunned by the goal.
When Sven Bender topped the ball, everyone felt that the threat to Neuer should not be great, but Neuer got rid of it when he saved, giving Zhou Yi a chance to make up for it. But this goal is not the fault of Neuer alone, from the moment Mark received the ball, Bayern Munich's backline was making mistakes. Mark was supposed to be offside, but Bayern Munich's centre-back Van Bitten was at the back, and although he realised his mistake and ran forward quickly, he was half a step too slow for Reus to pass the ball to Mark.
Mark then passed the ball into the box, and the Bayern Munich defenders ignored Zhou Yi who was inserted into the box, and only stared at Sven Bender and Kuba...... When Zhou Yi made up for the shot, there was not a single Bayern Munich defender around him.
The televised footage gave Bayern Munich manager Pep Guardiola, who was shown with his hands on his chest and frowning.
Obviously he was also unhappy with the goal.
However, it was fortunate that they conceded in the opening six minutes, and there was still a lot of time left for Bayern Munich. If it's six minutes before the end of the game, and you lose such a fatal goal, it's over.
※※※
The atmosphere at West** Stadium was very enthusiastic, with singing and cheering from the audience. In the continuous cheering of the fans, the whole team of Dortmund also took the initiative on the field.
In the eighth minute, two minutes after Borussia Dortmund's goal, it was Bayern Munich who were supposed to attack, but when they advanced in midfield, the ball was cut off by Sven Bender and passed the ball to Kuba.
After receiving the ball on the left wing, Mark's anti-offside position stepped forward, received a through ball from the edge of the Bayern Munich penalty area, and fired a low shot, the ball slipped past Neuer's feet and rolled into the goal against the near post.
Just when the scene erupted in loud cheers again, the referee raised his arm and blew the whistle vigorously.
After the goal, Mark turned to see the gesture, looked at the linesman again, and found that the linesman in the distance had raised the flag in his hand - he was offside!
Mark couldn't believe his eyes, he didn't think he was offside.
The TV broadcast also quickly cut out the still image of the moment of Kuba's pass just now. Through the still picture, you can find that Mark did poke out half of his upper body than Bayern Munich central defender Van Bitten, who was next to him, that is, this half of his body, allowing him to be offside......
“...... It was indeed offside, and the linesman saw it very accurately. Although the goal didn't go in, I think it should have made Bayern Munich nervous quickly, as if they weren't in the game yet. The forward pass was too casual and easily cut off by Sven Bender. After conceding the goal, the Bayern Munich players were also slow to react, and Dortmund seized the opportunity to play a counterattack, although this time it was offside, but who can guarantee that Dortmund will not be offside next time?" Marcel Leif criticized Bayern Munich mercilessly.
Unlike what everyone expected before the game, Bayern Munich seemed to be hypnotized at the West** Stadium......
This time, when the broadcast camera cut to Pep Guardiola on the sidelines, the Barcelona man finally did not remain indifferent, he rushed to the sidelines, waved his arms towards the pitch, yelled and looked very angry.
Let the opponent score two goals in two minutes, although the second goal is offside, it is not counted, but it is also very dangerous - offside by a millimeter, in case the linesman didn't look carefully just now, then Bayern Munich is now two goals behind?
※※※
Dortmund's two aggressive attacks in two minutes did indeed put Bayern Munich's players under pressure, and that pressure translated into excitement for Bayern Munich.
In the tenth minute, they finally had a decent attack.
Shaqiri received a return from Lewandowski on the edge of the box and fired a low shot that scurried forward against the turf and was saved by Weidenfeller on the line of the six-yard box.
Four minutes later, Bayern Munich attacked from the left. Alaba crossed from the flank, Lewandowski leaped high in the box and headed the ball into the middle.
Because the ball was so close, Thomas Müller, who was plugged in the back, didn't even have time to react, and the ball smashed into his chest and bounced to his left.
Luckily, Shaqiri followed closely behind, received the football, and then picked up his left foot and kicked it out!
It was a very sudden shot as attention was drawn to Lewandowski and Thomas Müller, but Shaqiri's kick was reflexively blocked by Weidenfeller.
The ball flew back and fell to the feet of Muller, he did not stop the ball, but directly stretched out his foot and kicked it, and in a hurry the ball was kicked out of an arc and flew towards the goal of Dortmund!
At this time, Weidenfeller made another brilliant save, he leaned backwards, reached for the ball with great difficulty, and let the ball change direction and fly towards the baseline.
Although Shaqiri still wanted to chase the goal, he was a step too late and he couldn't catch the ball before it flew off the line, but Bayern Munich won a corner.
Bayern Munich's attack in the past four minutes made Marcel Leif happy: "This is decent! This is the contest between Germany's best two balls! Dortmund's continuous attacks have finally woken up Bayern Munich!"
As a neutral commentator, he certainly doesn't want the game to be one-sided, whether it's to Borussia Dortmund or Bayern Munich, it's not what he wants to see, and he wants both teams to play well and give the fans a good matchup.
