Vol 4 Chapter 106: worth it

?
After Mark Wagner played, Dortmund changed his formation. At first, everyone felt that it was not a good idea to use Mark to replace the injured Goetze. Because the positions of the two people are different, the playing style is different.
But now it seems that Klopp's arrangement has a magical meaning.
His unbalanced substitutions, this asymmetric formation makes Schalke 04 very uncomfortable.
On the left side, facing the frequent insertion of assists by Gros Kreuz, they lacked targeted defense. Regardless of him, he was vigorous on the left side; regardless of him, he relied on Zhou Yi It can also make Schalke 04's defense uncomfortable.
No way, Schalke 04 can only put more defensive focus and strength on this side, trying to block the joint between Gros Kreuz and Zhou Yi. It is now obvious that Dortmund's main direction is here.
But the people are alive, Schalke 04 has put this side into the scope of key defense, Zhou Yi does not need to continue to struggle with them here.
When Gross Kreuz passed the football to him, and then continued to insert himself, Zhou Yi shook a shot, pretending to pass the football back, but it was just a fake action, his right foot moved the football to the right Pulling, turning around at the same time, then quickly kicked the ball to the right.
The football fell to Royce's feet.
Royce's defensive resistance is much smaller than that of Gros Kreuz!
Royce, who took the ball on the edge of the penalty area, struck the goal to shoot, and tricked Schalke 04 player Christian Fox, who rushed to defend, made a sliding shovel block. But Royce just deducted the football to the middle and deceived him.
Then he kicked the ball again and the football was thrown out by Anestal.
Although no goal was scored, Dortmund's offense scared many Schalke 04 fans into a cold sweat, and also boosted the morale of the Dortmund fans in the stands, full of confidence in the future of the team.
※※※
After Gotze's injury, everyone thought that Dortmund would be in trouble, but the results were completely different. They threatened Schalke 04's goal several times in a row, causing Schalke 04 huge trouble.
Why is this?
Klopp's unexpected substitution arrangements and formation adjustments are just one reason.
Another important reason is that they have Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi is an autonomous commander on the court. He does not simply follow the arrangement of the head coach. Sometimes he even works in reverse with the head coach's arrangement, but he usually does well. So the coach said nothing.
He is closest to the situation on the front line, he knows when to do what.
So to make Dortmund's offense lose its threat, the most important point is to contain Zhou Yi.
Yang Muge posted on Zhou Yi.
"Old Yang, don't stick so tightly, I am not interested in men." Zhou Yitou said to Yang Muge without looking back.
"I'm not interested either, Zhou Yi. I just do what's inside." Yang Muge replied, the tone was calm. Zhou Yi's ridicule or "provocation" didn't make his emotions fluctuate.
This feeling is not strange to Zhou Yi. He had it when he played against Yang Muge before. It felt like he was playing against a robot. It was really no fun.
But I have to admit that as an opponent, Yang Muge's quality is very good. He can let himself be interfered and influenced by the outside world as little as possible, and do his job well with one mind.
But Zhou Yi is not afraid of him.
Having fought so many times in the virtual space, Zhou Yi is also familiar with Yang Muge. Yang Muge is a very good midfielder, but he is just a good midfielder.
No matter how powerful he is, he is a person, and football is a team sport. Zhou Yi has never been fighting against a team alone. His football style is to make full use of the strength of the team, so he is an organization midfielder. He is the person who leads the team, but it is not a single-handed man.
Facing Yang Muge's defense, Zhou Yi will respond with a quick pass.
Especially after Mark came on the court, Zhou Yi was even more handy when passing the ball. Because Mark is very familiar with him, although he has not played for a year, this tacit agreement has not been affected.
And Mark is also willing to cooperate with Zhou Yi. He will always understand Zhou Yi's intention a little faster than other teammates in Dortmund, and then quickly make coordinated actions, so Zhou Yi and him can achieve a truly "seamless connection".
Zhou Yi had just received the ball here, and Mark had already appeared in the receiving position. Zhou Yi could pass the football without even lifting his head. He knew that Mark would be waiting for him there.
The tacit understanding between the two of them is so good.
This time, it is equivalent to Yang Muge alone to defend Zhou Yijiamark two people, no matter how good his ability is, it is impossible to maintain one-on-two long-term advantage.
After going back and forth several times in this way, Yang Muge felt great pressure.
Moreover, Zhou Yi and Mark are not just simple passes. The two of them will continue to switch positions during the pass and cross back and forth, making Yang Muge feel stupid.
Zhou Yi was still on his left when he passed the ball. After passing the football to Mark, he ran to the right. After passing the ball again, he ran back to the left.
Yang Muge is also familiar with Zhou Yi, but he has never seen Zhou Yi play this way. In a very small range, he constantly exchanges with Mark and then passes and then passes, which is dazzling.
And Dortmund's offense also found a breakthrough in this small fast pass.
In the sixty-seventh minute, Zhou Yi handed over the football to Mark, then walked around from behind Mark and ran to the other side of him. After Mark passed the football to him, he sprinted forward, but just when he ran between the Schalke 04 defender line and the mid-forward line, he suddenly stopped and changed direction, running in the opposite direction. .
At the same time, Zhou Yi's ball was also delivered, and Mark just ran to Zhou Yi's pass.
From the outsider's point of view, it's really unclear whether the two of them are coincidences, or there is a conspiracy...
Anyway, Mark received the ball given to him by Zhou Yi in a very delicate position, he did not continue to dribble in, because if one step forward Dehui, he would directly hit Hoveides and Matip Schalke 04 frontal defense.
But he didn't stop to adjust, because Yang Muge and other Schalke 04 midfielders threw themselves back. As long as he hesitated a little, he would quickly fall into the circle of Schalke 04.
When Mark received the ball, he chose to shoot directly!
"Mark Wagner!" The football flew to Howards in the roar of Marcel Leff's long voice.
Howards was in a conditional reflex of a centre-back, stretched his legs out to block, and at the same time put his hands behind his back to avoid being handballed in the penalty area due to being hit by the ball with open arms, and gave Dortmund a penalty.
But the football flew past the arm he gripped. If he opened his arm, he might be hit by the football. But the situation is not much better now. He didn't stop the football. The football flew towards the goal behind him. There was an arc in the air. The speed was not fast, but the arc was obvious. I just bypassed Schalke 04 goalkeeper Onesta. Ear's fingertips, and then plunged into the net!
"Toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooor!!!"
It wasn't Marcel Leif who made this long hiss, but the broadcaster Norbert Decor of Westfield.
His roar was magnified with the help of a microphone, and he thrilled over the court, like a thunder roll.
The Dortmund fans in the stands of Wester Stadium also jumped up and shouted: "toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooor!!!"
They responded to their dear "Nobby" with the same roar.
The West Course at this moment is like a volcano erupting, and everyone in it seems to be swallowed by the lava.
"Mark! He equalized the score for Dortmund! This is his first game of a comeback after a year of serious injury! The first game scored a goal, such a comeback is simply perfect!" Compared with them, the commentary Marcel Leff seemed a little bit less passionate, but it wasn’t Leif who swallowed the water, but Dortmund fans were so excited...
On the one hand, it is a key goal for the Ruhr Derby to equalize the score. On the one hand, they are the first ball of their "south grandstand son" Mark Wagner after his injury and recovery.
When the team needed him, he stood up, which is what a real Dortmund player should do!
※※※
After the goal, Mark was also very excited. He didn’t even think about embracing and celebrating with Zhou Yi. He turned around and ran all the way to the other side of the stand opposite Schalke’s 04 goal. That is the famous South Stand of Westfield. Is where he came out!
Zhou Yi didn't even care about Mark's practice of not hugging himself after scoring a goal. In fact, anyone can freely choose to celebrate after scoring a goal, and he didn't say that he must hug him who assisted him.
And Zhou Yi understood Mark's mood at the moment.
For a whole year and a month, maybe no amount of language can tell clearly what he experienced during this time. Zhou Yi can't say anything that he feels empathy for, he absolutely can't empathize. So if he says he can empathize, it is hypocrisy.
All that Mark has experienced is only known to him, but looking at the emotions that he has erupted now, others can still imagine it a little bit. The time of one year and one month must be like hell...
For Mark, it is not hell, but it is almost the same as hell.
The most important thing is not the physical injury, but the psychological torment. Although his sister has repeatedly stressed to him, he recovered well, but he can return to the court. Although Zhou Yi comforted him with the examples of the famous players in history who were seriously injured and rejuvenated. But as long as he didn't stand on the court again for a day, he would always doubt whether he can continue to play.
One year and one month, it seems that the screen is black and bright in the movie~EbookFREE.me~ But for a person who is waiting hard for a comeback, it is a year and a month of suffering .
Many times he began to wonder if this kind of waiting made sense. What if he could not stand on the court in the end? Isn't all the effort in vain?
And now this goal finally let his restless heart settle down again.
He knows that those waiting and suffering are worthwhile and meaningful!
He ran all the way, he could not see the knee was seriously injured and had surgery, he just ran under the south stand, and then ignored the rules, he took off the jersey, lifted the sky into the sky, and then on his own right The South Stand yelled.
The fans in the South Stand responded to him with the warmest cheers.
Only his parents are an exception.
Mrs. Wagner covered her mouth and burst into tears in her husband's arms. Old Wagner was patting her back gently with her hands.
Among the carnival crowd, the two of them are so different. (To be continued.)
