Chapter 72 Fighting
When the game started again, the Sao Paulo Stadium was joking, and Naples fans were still celebrating the goal and the situation.
Although the second half has just begun, the excited Napoli fans already think they are sure to win, and there is no suspense or change in this game.
Dortmund, who is one less, is still away and is two goals behind. Judging from the previous scene, they have no advantage at all... If Dortmund can still turn the tables in such a game, that would be a real ghost!
Dortmund's players do seem to have not entered the game after the game restarts, but there are always exceptions.
Zhou Yi has been observing the situation ahead, especially when he is not taking the ball, he cares a lot about Aubameyang's running position.
He saw Aubameyang actively looking for space, so he felt relieved that the Gabon striker was not as simple as saying it, and he was really determined to do something for the team.
That's good. As long as you have fighting spirit, there is still hope. What you fear most is that you lose your fighting spirit. No matter how many strategies you have, it's useless.
When Zhou Yi finally had the chance to get the ball, he had already made preparations for passing the ball in advance, so he did not stop the ball, but instead passed the ball with a long pass against the football passed by his teammates!
The football flew straight to the front of Aubameyang!
There is a blank area there!
It just so happens that Aubameyang can fully utilize his speed advantage!
Sure enough, Aubameyang quickly started and accelerated to get in! It was like a cheetah running on the African prairie, chasing the prey in front of him.
His sudden start completely caught Napoli off guard. The Napoli players were still immersed in the dream of leading two goals, one more than their opponents, but they didn't expect Aubameyang to stab them like a black lightning!
"Zhou Yi's long pass is very accurate... He found Bolt! No, it was Aubameyang!" He Pingyi was excited and called Aubameyang's name wrong.
But in a sense, Aubameyang is really Bolt, because both of them are very fast!
After receiving Zhou Yi's long pass, Aubameyang took two steps along the side, quickly cut inside and rushed to Napoli's penalty area.
Naples defenders hurriedly retreated and contracted their defense.
Aubameyang faced Albiol and Britos' double defense at the penalty area line. In fact, if he could pass the football out at this time, it would be even more threatening. But both Mark and Reus are still a little far away from him now - Zhou Yi's long pass was very sudden, Aubameyang's speed was fast, and these two people had not kept up.
So Aubameyang had no choice but to directly shoot a long shot from the top of the free throw arc.
He tried hard to hold the football, and the football jumped forward on the turf, which would bring some difficulty to the goalkeeper's save, so Naples goalkeeper Renner did not fall to the ground and hug the football. He was not sure. He chose the safest way - after falling to the ground, he rapped the football out with his hands!
The football changed its line and flew out of the bottom line.
A burst of exclamation rang out from the stands at the Sao Paulo Stadium, and the cheers of Naples fans finally disappeared temporarily.
Aubameyang, who had no goal, was very upset. He knew how good 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 he hugged his head with both hands, he turned around and gave Zhou Yi a thumbs up, thanking him for his wonderful teaching.
"Bortmond's counterattack! Reiner made a wonderful save! This may be the most threatening attack in Dortmund so far!"
"Aubameyang's start-up speed just now is so fast! He almost instantly threw away the Napoli defensive players..."
The reason why Zhou Yi went to Aubameyang was of course because he was attracted by his speed advantage. In the physical fitness test within Dortmund, the forward Jia Peng, who spent three million euros this summer, completed a 30-meter sprint in 3.7 seconds, which was the fastest in the team.
Even a player like Yan Min who is good at speed cannot beat Aubameyang within 30 meters. Yan Min's advantage lies in his rapid change of rhythm. During high-speed running, he can keep stopping and then accelerating and changing directions. He does not have the advantage of simply straight sprinting.
Aubameyang's speed in the 30-meter sprint was even better than Bolt, the "fastest person in the world". When Bolt broke the 100-meter world record with 9 seconds and 58 seconds in 2009, his first 30 meters was "only" three.78 seconds...
Germany's Bistro once said that Aubameyang may be the fastest player in the history of the Bundesliga.
※※※
Although Aubameyang's shot posed a threat to Dortmund, Napoli did not defeat Dortmund because of this ball. They soon launched an attack and threatened the goal guarded by Langerak.
At that time, Karehon made a dribbling sideways and made a clever pass. Insigne, who was in the penalty area, did not stop the ball, but chose to turn around and shoot directly!
He didn't even look at the goal, but the shot shot avoided Langrak's fingers and rolled towards the far corner of the goal.
If it weren't for being turned away by the post in the end, Dortmund might have fallen behind three goals...
"Pull post! Oh! Insigne! What a pity!" the Italian narrator shouted with his head in his arms.
Marcel Leif and He Ping both exclaimed, frightened.
Aubameyang's shot before made them happy and excited. Now it seems that the fundamental problem has not been solved, and Dortmund is still in a passive situation of being beaten.
Zhou Yi also knew that the situation would not change because of Aubameyang's shot. If it wants to change, it is necessary to constantly create opportunities that can threaten the opponent's goal, otherwise one or two shots will only be attributed to "luck"...
In order to arouse the morale of the team, Zhou Yi also fought in this game. He ran more than before. Of course, this is normal, because Dortmund lacks one person, and in order to recover the disadvantage caused by one person, everyone else must run more than usual.
However, in terms of physical confrontation, Zhou Yi's determination can be better reflected.
In previous games, Zhou Yi was not too keen on physical confrontation. If he encountered physical confrontation, he would usually avoid it. This is not timid, but that is not what he is good at. It is stupid to compete with his opponents for physical confrontation. When playing football, you must play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses.
But now Zhou Yi is abnormal now. Even some fights that require physical confrontation, he seems very proactive.
It’s not that he can definitely grab the ball like this. He just hopes to boost morale. Seeing him fighting so hard, is his teammates still embarrassed to be in a daze?
※※※
Zhou Yi's crazy participation in the fight really touched his teammates.
Zhou Yi, who is the worst at physical confrontation in the team, works so hard. Are they just a spectator?
So the morale of the Dortmund players finally cheered up.
Zhou Yi did not stop fighting because of this, and he still worked very hard and desperately. Because this is not enough now, his morale has just recovered and is far from the time to relax.
Not only the ground ball, but even the ball comes from high altitude, Zhou Yi will compete for the top.
In the 71st minute, Dortmund launched a wave of offensives, and Aubameyang's cross from the wing was pushed out by Napoli's Spanish central defender Albiol.
Zhou Yi intends to compete for the second landing point, just like fighting for the frontcourt rebounds in a basketball game. Only by controlling the second landing point can Dortmund continue to launch an offense. Only continuous offensives can pose a threat to the goal of Naples.
So Zhou Yi looked up at the flying football and jumped up.
Before he jumped up, he noticed that there was a Naples player behind him. However, judging from the distance, he was a little far away from him. Zhou Yi ran a special opportunity. He didn't think the opponent could get the ball before him. As long as he could push the football out first, even if the opponent rushed over and grabbed it, it would probably be a foul.
Zhou Yi focused all his attention on the football, jumped in the air to prepare to head the ball for his teammates nearby. He had already watched it. Mark was next to him, not far away, so there was no need to work too much, and he could use more power to control the accuracy of the header...
Just as he was thinking about this, Zhou Yi suddenly felt a huge force coming from behind. The powerful force was as if he was hit by a speeding truck from behind, and his eyes were blackened.
I'm sorry, who drove the car up!
This is Zhou Yi’s last thought before he fell into a coma.
※※※
"The second landing point, hold on to the second landing point!" He Ping shouted. As the game was not enough, he became more and more anxious. When he saw Zhou Yi jumping up to compete for the top, he relaxed a little because the person who appeared at the second landing point was a Dortmund player, not a Naples one.
But then he saw Yinle jump up after sprinting at high speed and rushing towards Zhou Yi, obviously trying to compete with Zhou Yi for the top!
"careful……"
Before he finished speaking, Yinle collided with Zhou Yi, and his arm he had raised was pressed to the back of Zhou Yi's neck.
Inle, who jumped higher than Zhou Yi, hit the football and knocked Zhou Yi to the ground.
What worried He Ping was that when he saw Zhou Yi falling from the air, he did not have any self-protection conditioning action, and it was like wrapping a sack and directly hitting the ground.
After falling to the ground, Zhou Yi did not roll and buffer, and just lay on the ground without moving.
He Ping opened his mouth wide, but did not make any sound. He widened his eyes and looked at the big screen in front of him.
