Chapter 212
Chapter 212
For neutral fans, scoring four goals in the opening 18 minutes is a scoring feast, which is really cool.
But for fans on both sides of the game, it was a bit too exciting.
In the stands, apart from the upper-tier spectators in the VIP seats, there were almost no fans from both sides in the ordinary seats.
Everyone was on their feet, ready to celebrate a team goal.
However, although Real Madrid came back after falling behind twice in a row, their shooting quality was still not as good as that of Dortmund.
In the 23rd minute, Real Madrid wasted an excellent opportunity. Higuain actually kicked a ball passed to him by Ozil in the penalty area and flew over the crossbar.
Real Madrid missed an opportunity to overtake the score.
And wasting opportunities will be punished.
Just 3 minutes later, in the 26th minute, Dortmund also got an excellent shot.
This opportunity was created by Cheng Hai, but he was not the one who shot.
Through a series of astonishing breakthroughs, he broke through the interceptions of three Real Madrid players with a ox tail, a Marseille maneuver, and a bicycle. Whether it was the last defender Carvalho or the goalkeeper Iker Casillas, they all moved to Cheng Hai's forward side, thinking that Cheng Hai would definitely hit the goal.
Unexpectedly, when Cheng Hai entered the penalty area and was about to face Carvalho, he flicked his ankle and crossed the ball to the middle.
Under the horrified gazes of Casillas and Carvalho, Gundogan, who followed up in the middle, volleyed directly and kicked the ball to the other side of the goal without any adjustment.
Casillas, who rushed to the far end of the goal immediately after Cheng Hai passed the ball, still failed to catch up with Gundogan's shot. In the end, he could only stand on the goal line in vain, without even making a save, and watched the ball fly into the net.
In the 26th minute, Cheng Hai assisted Gundogan to score and Dortmund took the lead again 3-2.
Just when many home fans were expecting the stars of Real Madrid to show off again and equalize the score, Dortmund finally scored again, taking a two-goal lead, and did not allow Real Madrid to equalize the score again.
In the 34th minute, Real Madrid's frontcourt attack was interrupted, and Dortmund made a quick counterattack.
Although Ronaldo, Kaka, and Modric all frantically returned to defense and tried to help the team defend, but they wanted to score too much to equalize the score and attacked too high.
Before Modric and others returned to the defense, Cheng Hai had already opened up a shot gap by collaborating with Goetze outside the penalty area, and then kicked and bombarded the goal about 24 meters away from the goal.
This long-range shot is quite powerful, and the angle is also tricky.
It's a pity that Casillas also reacted quite quickly, and even poked the ball with his fingertips when it went straight to the dead corner, allowing the ball to hit the post and bounce back into the penalty area.
Many Dortmund fans in the stands and in front of the TV let out a sigh when Cheng Hai's extremely high-quality long-range shot didn't go in.
As a result, the ball bounced off the goal post and landed in the penalty area. Carvalho wanted to kick the ball out of the sideline to clear the siege, but because he was too impatient and missed the position, the ball slammed. Not only was he not kicked out of the sideline, but flew towards Royce who rushed into the penalty area.
Royce, who thought the ball was going to be cleared by Carvalho, didn't expect such a good thing. Before he had time to think about it, he immediately dived to the top and pushed the ball back to the goal.
Casillas, who just got up from the ground, could no longer recover, and could only watch the ball fly into the goal.
Dortmund extended the score to 4-2, with Real Madrid two goals behind.
It's a completely different feeling to be one goal behind than to be two goals behind.
Now the stars of Real Madrid are even more anxious, continuing to press forward and aggressively attack, wanting to equalize the score as soon as possible.
But at this time Dortmund did not fight against them.
With a lead of two goals and an away game, Dortmund has the basis to play a defensive counterattack.
Even Cheng Hai withdrew to the midfield, using his defensive position and speed, physique, and stealing ability to help defend, interrupting Real Madrid's offense from time to time.
At the same time, Dortmund is always paying attention to the counterattack launched after stealing the ball.
Unfortunately, in the 38th minute, Cheng Hai turned offside and almost became single-handedly. He was directly pulled to the ground by a tactical foul from behind by Ramos.
Although Ramos received a yellow card, Cheng Hai's almost single-handed chance to score was destroyed.
Although he got a free kick, the free kick was still close to 40 meters away from the goal. Even with Cheng Hai's ability, he couldn't kick the ball directly into the goal.
This counterattack shocked Real Madrid up and down, and the defensive players didn't dare to press up to participate in the attack.
However, although there are no defensive players involved, there are too many Real Madrid stars, and any one who shines can score a goal.
In the 44th minute, when the first half of the game was about to end, Kaka dribbled the ball through his iconic strides to pass two people in the front court, and then shot a powerful long shot from the right side of the top of the penalty area about 20 meters away from the goal.
The ball was powerful and had a tricky angle. Although Weidenfeller made a save, he still couldn't get it.
Kaka's powerful long-range shot pierced Weidenfeller's ten fingers and flew into Dortmund's goal.
Real Madrid scored another goal and tied the score to 3-4 with only one goal behind. Everyone saw the possibility of a comeback and a shameful defeat of Dortmund.
However, after scoring this goal, there was not much time left in the first half.
After 1 minute of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half. The two sides entered the intermission with a 3-4 score.
The fans who were nervous throughout the first half can finally take a break.
In the first half, the two sides scored 7 goals, and the score was so anxious that the score was 3-4. Whether it was Real Madrid fans or Dortmund fans, they were extremely nervous.
Similarly, the commentators were also very excited, and they all sighed during the intermission:
"The first half is finally over!"
"Oh my god, I feel like I didn't breathe very much in the first half, and now I can finally take a good breath."
"It's so exciting!"
"Real Madrid deserves to be the Galacticos, and Dortmund deserves to be the team that won the Triple Crown last season. The two teams gave us an exciting and exciting first half."
"With a score of 3-4, most games could not score like this in the entire 90 minutes. As a result, Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund scored a total of 45 goals in only 7 minutes of the first half and scored like this."
"This game is really exciting, and the fans who stayed up late to watch the game today are really worth it!"
"Just don't know how the situation will develop in the second half."
"Although Dortmund has Cheng Hai, and although Dortmund leads by one goal, Real Madrid has too many stars. As long as anyone shines, they may score."
"Real Madrid was also quite united in this game. There was no feeling of infighting like before this season, and they played very hard."
"Obviously, all Real Madrid players want revenge and revenge."
"However, facing Dortmund with Cheng Hai, even if Real Madrid is full of superstars, it is quite difficult to reverse the situation."
Indeed, after the start of the second half, although Real Madrid was stimulated by Kaka's goal and their morale was boosted, they continued to bombard Dortmund with a shrinking formation in the second half.
And they can indeed create some good shooting opportunities, but the shooting accuracy is not as good as Cheng Hai.
In the 49th minute, Real Madrid got a free kick in the front court, but Ronaldo sent the ball over the crossbar.
In the 55th minute, Di Maria broke through from the side and made a pass from the bottom. Higuain headed back from the center and Özil volleyed from the back, but it missed the post and hit the side net.
The Real Madrid fans with a bad angle thought the goal had been scored, but after cheering twice, they found out that the goal had not been scored, and they couldn't help but feel depressed.
When Real Madrid aggressively attacked but failed to score, Dortmund has been preparing for a counterattack.
Especially Cheng Hai, once he gets the ball, he can pose a huge threat to Real Madrid's defense.
Although Ramos, Carvalho, Pepe and others all focus on marking Cheng Hai, Cheng Hai is not the only one in Dortmund.
After Cheng Hai withdrew to the backcourt to participate in the defense, he was a little far away from the offensive line.
But he can use his vision and long pass and through pass ability to help his teammates score goals.
In the 60th minute, Cheng Hai finally ushered in a good opportunity.
The opportunity came from Real Madrid's aggressive attack, but Cheng Hai and his teammates made a mistake. When Kaka dribbled the ball and tried to break through Sebastian Kyle, Kyle made a sudden shovel and stabbed the ball away.
And no foul.
The ball that Kyle poked out fell to Jing Duoan's feet. After Jing Duoan spiked the ball and dodged the counter-robbing Ronaldo, he passed the ball diagonally to Cheng Hai who was on the left.
Pepe, who was the closest, immediately blocked Cheng Hai's possible breakthrough route. Ramos and Carvalho also became nervous, moving closer to Pepe intentionally or unintentionally.
But Cheng Hai didn't give them this chance.
Because of his wide field of vision, he has already seen Mario Gotze cutting in at high speed from the right.
Gotze started to insert from the wing at high speed when Kyle broke the ball at Kaka's feet.
Just when Pepe and the others were preparing to prevent Cheng Hai from breaking through with the ball, Cheng Hai flicked the ball sideways, and before Pepe could react, he kicked the ball diagonally to the right side of Real Madrid's half with a big kick.
Because right back Essien was marking Lewandowski, Mario Gotze received a pass from Cheng Hai without marking, and then took the ball to kill Real Madrid's penalty area at high speed.
Cheng Hai's long pass over 40 meters in the air directly penetrated Real Madrid's defense.
Although Modric was desperately chasing back behind him, Ramos in the middle was also leaning towards the side to try to intercept Gotze, but Gotze's speed was too fast, and neither Ramos nor Modric could complete the interception before he entered the penalty area.
Then, when he dribbled the ball into the penalty area, Gotze shot directly without waiting for Ramos, who rushed from the side, to make a tackle.
Casillas seals the near corner but Gotze hits the far corner instead.
Although Saint Cassie sat down reflexively, he tried to destroy the ball with his feet.
But the angle of Gotze's shot was too precise. The ball just rolled past Casillas' toes and was not damaged by Casillas.
Then, under the desperate eyes of all Real Madrid people, the ball slid into the dead corner of the goal against the far post.
In the 60th minute, Cheng Haiyan scored twice with a goal and an assist, helping Dortmund take a 5-3 away lead.
5 goals, only two away from the 7 goals in the previous round.
In addition to stoppage time, the two sides have a little more than 30 minutes left, and it is entirely possible to complete two goals.
If Dortmund scores two more goals, Real Madrid will really be ashamed.
If it is an ordinary coach, he may really become concerned about gains and losses. He is afraid of wolves and tigers, and makes the team shrink back a little to prevent Dortmund from counterattacking.
But Mourinho is not an ordinary person. Now that he has reached this level, he doesn't even think about how many goals he concedes. What he wants is offense and goals.
Now the score has become 3-5, Real Madrid is two goals behind, and there is not much time left in the game. Not only did Magic Bird not consider the possibility of Dortmund scoring again, but instead made a substitution adjustment.
In the 64th minute, Real Madrid made a substitution adjustment. Essien, who played as a full-back due to Marcelo's injury, went off, and the organizational midfielder Harvey Alonso played, forming a three-midfield with Kaka and Modric.
Ronaldo was mentioned as a winger, and Higuain, Ozil, and Di Maria formed a 4-forward formation.
Real Madrid played a 334 mad attack tactic, and Mourinho was already desperate and desperate.
Perhaps Mourinho's gamble really moved the heavens. In the 72nd minute, Real Madrid scored an unexpected goal.
That was when Di Maria and Modric passed Dortmund's wide defenders through a collision with the wall and then made a pass from the bottom, but it resulted in Hummels' own goal.
Under the pressure of Ronaldo rushing into the penalty area to compete for the top, Hummels not only failed to clear the ball with a header, but instead headed into his own goal.
Through this Hummels own goal, Real Madrid chased the score to 4-5, only one goal behind.
This ball gave Real Madrid the hope of an equalizer or even a reversal.
The 334 mad attacking formation is crazy enough, but Mourinho not only waved his hand towards Dortmund's goal, but also shouted from the sidelines:
"Attack! Attack!"
"Don't be afraid to lose the ball!"
"Attack me to death!"
"Only by scoring can we survive!"
Under Mourinho's loud command, Real Madrid really pushed forward and continued to bombard Dortmund's half, trying to score another goal to equalize the score.
If you can score two goals in a row and reverse the score, then this game may be really wonderful.
However, where is the luck of Di Maria's cross and Ronaldo forcing Hummels to score an own goal?
Behind the rampant attack, there is a large space in Real Madrid's backcourt, which can be used by Dortmund to counterattack.
In the 81st minute, Kaka's long-range shot from outside the penalty area was blocked by Subotic flying to block the hole of the gun.
Coincidentally, the ball blocked by Subotic landed right in front of Cheng Hai.
Cheng Hai stopped and wiped, passed Modric who was running to grab the ball, and then strode forward with the ball.
When Ramos intercepted, Cheng Hai did not entangle with him, but directly crossed the ball to Gundogan who was keeping up with him.
Gundogan passed a pass to Lewandowski who ran out of space in front, forcing the last defender Pepe to intercept Lewandowski, and Cheng Hai, who ran without the ball after completing the pass, could do nothing at all.
Naturally, Cheng Hai was not unmarked, but this sudden counterattack made the entire Real Madrid team unable to react, and the players in the frontcourt did not return to their positions.
As a result, the system of Real Madrid's three central defenders was penetrated by Cheng Hai, Gundogan, and Lewandowski's pass and cut cooperation.
Cheng Hai's speed without the ball made it impossible for Ramos to catch up.
In the end, Cheng Hai caught up with Lewandowski and Pepe abruptly by virtue of his world number one speed, forming a two-on-one situation.
As for Ramos and Carvalho, they were left behind by his physique and speed. Carvalho failed to foul Cheng Hai even if he wanted to.
The next thing is simple, at the moment Cheng Hai is about to offside, Lewandowski sent the ball diagonally to the front of Cheng Hai's running position.
Then Cheng Hai overtook him and Pepe, succeeded in anti-offside, received the ball after a few steps, and hit the penalty area line.
Facing Casillas who attacked into the penalty area, Cheng Hai used his full "lob shot" skill to make a light lob shot.
After finishing the shot, Cheng Hai was pushed down by Ramos who was chasing behind him.
But this is no longer helpful.
Cheng Hai lobbed the ball over Casillas's head, crossed a parabola in the air, and landed in Real Madrid's goal.
In the 81st minute, Cheng Hai received an assist from Lewandowski in a counterattack and scored a goal, extending the score to 6-4. Dortmund led by two goals again.
And Cheng Hai also performed a hat-trick.
The total goals of the two sides also broke through double digits, reaching ten goals.
This made the narrators in the narration booth fall into madness, and roared at the top of their lungs:
"Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...""
"The ball is in, it's in, it's in, it's in..."
"hat trick!"
"Cheng Hai performed a hat-trick! Helped Dortmund take a 6-4 lead, and the total number of goals scored by both sides has exceeded the ten-goal mark!
"It's so exciting. Today's Champions League group match is entirely likely to be the most exciting match in the Champions League this season. Maybe the finals can't even match it."
