Chapter 43: Coming to Fight(1/2)

After Dortmund U19 placed the football in the middle lap, the game quickly started again.

For Dortmund U19, there is not much time left, so they naturally hope that the game will start as soon as possible.

For Schalke 04, when they were leading two goals twice at home, they were pulled back to one goal twice in a row, how could they swallow this tone?

They naturally want to regain the two-goal advantage and tell Dortmund whose territory it is.

After the game began, Dortmund, who had just scored a goal, launched a fierce attack on Schalke 04's goal.

Schalke 04 withstood Dortmund's attack and was still waiting for an opportunity to counterattack.

As long as they can get the ball, they will launch a quick counterattack without hesitation, trying to catch Dortmund off guard.

After Mark's goal, the competition has become increasingly fierce. The pace of offense and defense conversion between the two sides has begun to accelerate, and the scene has become much better... Of course, it is a bit chaotic.

When Dortmund got the ball and attacked, Schalke 04 intercepted the ball when he hit the right side. Schalke 04 quickly launched a quick counterattack.

Dortmund's players quickly returned to defense.

Seeing Schalke 04 get an opportunity to attack, Schalke 04 supporters in the stands and on the sidelines all shouted excitedly.

Neuer seemed particularly excited, and he raised his arms and shouted: "Roar! Break them down!"

※※※

When Schalke 04 full-back rushed up with the ball, most of the Dortmund players were back to defend, but Zhou Yi stood still.

This move fell into the eyes of others, probably evidence that Zhou Yi did not actively return to defense and had a negative attitude towards the game.

But Zhou Yi has his own ideas.

Even if he withdraws back to defend, he actually won't have much effect. It's better to stay here, maybe he has a chance to fight back?

Now in his mind, the floor plan of the court appeared. In this floor plan, Zhou Yi can see clearly the positions of the players on both sides on the court at this moment. Schalke 04 left back who was holding the ball is evolving and dribbling the ball forward. If he wants to dribble the ball himself, then Zhou Yi has no way to do it.

If he wants to pass the ball forward, Zhou Yi has no choice.

But if he wants to pass the ball in the middle... Zhou Yi's current position is not far from that pass route.

He was so blocked that the opponent would pass the ball to the middle.

Of course, if the other party doesn't pass it, it doesn't matter, he just runs back.

The Schalke 04 player who dribbled the ball just crossed the center line and encountered an obstacle from the Dortmund player. The route of rushing forward along the side road was no longer available. So he cut inward to the middle road, and then moved the football horizontally!

That's now!

Zhou Yi, who had been paying attention to him, saw him turning to the middle, and immediately stepped forward. So when the opponent passed the other side, he happened to intercept the opponent's cross-pass!

"Ah!!" Neuer, who was cheering, saw this scene and hurriedly hugged his head with his hands. Then he pointed at Zhou Yi and shouted: "Push!Push!Don't let him pass the football!"

※※※

Amid the screams of Schalke 04 fans, Zhou Yi took the ball and led the ball forward and crossed the center line.

The midfielder Schalke 04, who was preparing to receive a cross pass in the middle circle, was closest to Zhou Yi, so he quickly turned around and forced Zhou Yi.

Faced with his interception, Zhou Yi used his right foot to thrust the ball to the outside, and separated the opponent with his own body.

However, this did not allow him to get rid of defense. Another Schalke 04 midfielder on the wing also turned around and rushed towards Zhou Yi, intending to attack Zhou Yi from left to right with his companions, trap Zhou Yi, and then cut off his ball, or force Zhou Yi to make a mistake in passing. In short, Dortmund's counterattack will not be allowed to start.

At the same time, Goze, who had failed to attack on the wing, had not yet returned to defense. He quickly moved to the middle and made a cross-swap with Jinchek.

His running position successfully attracted the attention of Schalke 04 defenders, and everyone's eyes were focused on him.

But Zhou Yi didn't. He was secretly looking at Mark at the far end.

When he intercepted the ball just now, Mark was in an offside position, so he passed the ball directly without intercepting the ball.

Instead, he drove the ball forward, attracting the opponent's defensive attention while leaving time for his teammates to run.

Sure enough, seeing his actions, Mark ran back with a quick step.

At the same time, the two Schalke 04 players became tighter and tighter against Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi used his right foot to push the ball to the side and twisted his body. He seemed to be able to pass the ball to the side.

But there is no Dortmund player on the wing. Gotze, who was on the wing before, is now moving towards the middle.

Unless Zhou Yi passes the football to Jincike in the ribs.

But Jinchek turned his back to the offensive direction, and there was a Schalke 04 defender behind him. There was no obvious passing angle between him and Zhou Yi. It was not even easy to pass him.

It seems that Zhou Yi has brought football to a dead end by himself.

"Pass!" Dortmund players who couldn't help but shouted on the bench. "Don't bring it!"

Schneider next to him snorted coldly in his heart, and he was waiting to see Zhou Yi lose the ball.

"Good!" Neuer off the court saw Zhou Yi being forced to the side by the Schalke 04U19 players, and excitedly waved his fists to applaud.

※※※

But just when Schalke 04 fans in the stands thought their defense was successful, Zhou Yi suddenly swung his right foot and turned around and kicked the football!

Football was not passed to the side, nor to Jinchek, nor to Gotze, who ran to the middle.

Instead, it flew straight to the far end!

Or to be more specific, it was flying towards the front of the far end!

Mark, who had just retreated, turned around and rushed forward, and he chased towards the landing point of the football!

But this is not a very obvious gap, because beside him, there are two Schalke 04 players in blue clothes on the left and right!

The original central defender was quickly chasing back, while the full-back retracted after Zhou Yi passed the ball and forced him to Mark.

This is completely different from Mark's previous goal!

The aggressive full-back directly crashed into Mark, hoping to knock Mark down.

But Mark was not easily knocked to the ground by him. He withstood the other party's collision, although his steps were a little staggering.

At the same time, he also stretched out his feet to stop the ball.

The ball passed by Zhou Yi was stopped forward with his left foot, and the distance was just right.

※※※

Yebala, who saw Mark stopping the ball this time off the court, stood up from her seat.

In his opinion, this is a crucial stop!

If Mark hadn't stopped the ball well just now, then this counterattack would have been wasted - in fact, if this was the case, it wouldn't be too surprising. Not everyone can control the football while physically ramming, even those professional players, let alone people like Mark.

When Yebala saw that Zhou Yi chose to pass such a high ball to Mark and that Mark had not yet gotten rid of defense, he actually had no hope in his heart.

He knew Mark's physical ability to fight.

However, at the moment when he was suspicious, the fighting spirit that Mark showed in his usual training and team competitions flashed in his mind...

I felt a little lucky in my heart - maybe, maybe... what if... he can do it?

As soon as this thought flashed out, Mark withstood the opponent's full-back's collision and then stopped the football beautifully!

When Yebala was excited, she stood up from her seat, then walked to the sidelines, staring nervously at the stadium.

He knew that this was not over yet!

Because although Mark leaned against the opponent's full-back with his body, Schalke 04 also has a central defender!

At this time, Schalke 04 central defender who had already chased back rushed forward to see this, took a step forward, took his left leg, stretched out to the football, intending to poke the football out.

Just when he was about to succeed, Mark, who was squeezed between the two, took the lead and shot the football!

When he was pushed out by two defenders from Schalke 04, he also shot the football at the goal!

The quick shot from Mark's shot between the two people made Schalke 04's goalkeeper not react. His body tilted, and the football had already rushed past him, and then... hit the net behind the goal line!

Three minutes after Dortmund scored, they scored again!

3:3! Dortmund equalized the score!

※※※

"Good ball!!" The one who shouted out was not a Dortmund fan or Mark's parents, but... Yebala standing on the sidelines!

He raised his arms and shouted, looking very excited!

It's not just because this ball equalized the score, but also because of the things he saw throughout the ball, what was really exciting.

In Yebala's heart, Mark Wagner officially became a member of Dortmund U19 from this moment!

※※※

Mark rushed to the ground and watched the football fly into the goal. He got up from the ground excitedly, then turned around and ran to Zhou Yi who passed the ball and assisted him.

Zhou Yi also ran towards him, and the two hugged each other again.

"This ball is so beautiful, Mark!" Zhou Yi patted his head and said happily. "You did it! You were not knocked down by the defender! I knew you could do it, Mark! I didn't run away when the ball was passed, just waiting to celebrate the goal, ha!"

Faced with Zhou Yi's praise, Mark only laughed apart from laughing. The efforts of more than a month... were finally not in vain!

This time Gotze did not run to the goal to pick up the ball. There were more than twenty minutes left in the game. If he didn't urge Mark, he would also enjoy the joy of equalizing the score, and let Mark have fun. He knew very well what this goal meant to Mark.
