Chapter 77 Cheers, we won!
After the game started again, Chu Zhongtian focused all his attention on Schmelzer while completing his job.
Schmelzer is only 21 years old this year. He played the left back in this game, a young star trained by Dortmund himself. Chu Zhongtian didn't know much about him, and he couldn't talk about his likes and dislikes. But from what happened just now, Chu Zhongtian could see that this kid had a kind of cleverness and cunning that young people had.
He both secretly revenges Weiss and escapes punishment. This must be a "glorious record" worth boasting about after the game, right?
But it's a pity, young man. You're framed my teammate.
The side where Weiss is located is Schmelzer's side. Weiss was sent off and Eduardo was urgently transferred to the right. But after all, he is not a player who is good at defense, so Schmelzer is much more active than when Weiss was there. He can frequently assist. Eduardo's defense here is not worth mentioning at all, and Dortmund also regards this side as the main attack direction.
However, this is exactly what Chu Zhongtian wants. Because Weiss was sent off, he needs to frequently defend the right side, just in time to face Schmelzer.
Schmelzer received a pass from his teammate and he dribbled forward. Eduardo's defense was like a stunning move, and he easily passed it over.
Next, he faced Chu Zhongtian.
He wanted to push the football to the outside line, and then suddenly accelerated over the No. 8 of Hoffenheim in front of him. But he miscalculated. Chu Zhongtian suddenly stretched his foot and just blocked the front of the football. At the same time, Schmelzer also stretched his foot to dial the ball. The two of them came to the side to face each other.
With a bang, Chu Zhongtian did not move at all. Schmeltzer turned over and met Chu Zhongtian under the push of inertia, and then fell behind him. Where is the football? He still stopped in place honestly.
Schmelzer waved his hand to complain to the referee because he clearly remembered that Chu Zhongtian had a yellow card in four minutes of the start of the game. As long as he got another yellow card, he would be sent off again! Hoffenheim, who had two players missing, would definitely not be the opponent of Dortmund, who played at home.
He thought so, but the referee ignored him and just hugged him and signaled him to get up quickly, then ran forward - Hoffenheim's counterattack had already begun, and he would not be able to see clearly if he didn't go up again.
Schmelzer stared at Chu Zhongtian's back and clenched his fists.
He had already made plans in his mind. If he wanted to frequently assist, he would cause trouble for Chu Zhongtian. He didn't believe that under his constant impact, this person could still hold on. The person had already received a yellow card. Either he was sent off for a foul, or he was shrunk and dared not resist when facing him, and was easily broken through by himself.
This is a sure profit and no loss.
※※※Bortmond, who was tied, cannot accept the fate of being tied, just like the Hoffenheim players shouted at halftime, "You can lose to anyone, you can't lose to Dortmund." They also thought so in their hearts, "You can be tied to anyone at home, you can't be tied to this team from the countryside!"
Under such thoughts, Schmelzer's side was particularly active.
Schmelzer rushed up again. This time it was Tinga who controlled the ball in the ribs, and he ran up to pull the side to support him.
Tinga faced the front defense of Chu Zhongtian and Comper, and there was no possibility of breaking through or shooting, so he passed the football to Schmelzer who was pulling the side.
Facing Baker, Schmelzer made a fake move to break through to the bottom line. After tricking Baker into moving the center of gravity to the bottom line, he suddenly hit the ball and wanted to cut inside and break through to the penalty area!
He thought he had successfully deceived Hoffenheim's defense. He just dunked the ball but suddenly shoveled it against the ground with his legs. His football was shoveled off and fell to Baker's feet.
Schmelzer looked carefully - it was Chu Zhongtian again!
However, before he could see too carefully, he was taken to the ground by Chu Zhongtian. This time he screamed, and it sounded like Chu Zhongtian shoveled his ankle.
But the referee still did not say anything. He could see clearly that Chu Zhongtian first hit the football, then couldn't stop the car, and took down Schmeltzer. His implementation of Mercedes could completely avoid it, but he did nothing and was knocked to the ground.
Of course, the referee could not have played such an action. He also knew that Chu Zhongtian had a yellow card. Unless it was a foul that really had to take out the cards, he would be very cautious. He had been playing the red card twice in this game, so he had to be more cautious next time.
Of course, Chu Zhongtian knew that he did not foul this ball, but he was happy to see if it hit Schmelzer in the end, otherwise he could also stop it a little and would not hit it head-on.
Although this was not a foul, Schmelzer was hit and felt a little painful. Of course, these were all flaws. It hurt a lot at the time, and it would be fine after a while.
Chu Zhongtian wanted Schmeltzer to know that there would be a way to deal with him without foul.
When he was playing football at Wimbledon, the referees in the amateur competition were not rigorous in the penalty, and everyone played very well. He followed Keith Ward, a veteran in the low-level league in the team, to learn small moves that could teach people some lessons without fouling.
He rarely uses these actions since Wimbledon, after all, they are not open and upright. Everyone is in a dignified duel, you treat me as an opponent, and I treat you as an opponent, giving you the respect of your opponent. This is the battle between men.
But if someone wants to play tricks in front of him, he doesn't mind using this method to teach the other party a lesson.
Schmelzer grinned and got up from the ground. This time he was really hit and hurt. He waved his arms to the referee angrily, roaring: "He really kicked me! He really kicked me!"
The referee ignored him, Chu Zhongtian ignored him, and Baker had already kicked the football in front, and everyone ran away.
Hoffenheim seized the opportunity of Schmelzer's frequent assists but not going back, and also regarded this place as the main attack direction.
Seeing Schmelzer complaining to the referee in front, Dortmund's head coach Kolope shouted to him: "Go back to defense! Schmelzer, go back to defense!!"
※※※In the 81st minute, Schmelce dribbled the ball again, and this time he was still facing Chu Zhongtian. He still wanted to come to trouble Chu Zhongtian, but he didn't believe he could not fight this player who was carrying a yellow card on his body. Logically, he should have shrunk his hands and feet and was worried about it... But his dribbled breakthrough was once made by Chu Zhongtian. Baker and Chu Zhongtian cooperated tackled the ball here, and Chu Zhongtian immediately caught the ball. Then, while Schmelce was still lying on the ground and raised his hand to protest, Chu Zhongtian had quickly climbed up and ran forward along the side.
Baker passed the ball to the push-up centre-back Comper. Comper passed the ball to Eduardo in front of him - the Brazilian came to the middle road. During this series of passes, Chu Zhongtian kept rushing forward. Kyle was sent off here, and Schmelzer was still complaining about the unfair treatment he suffered, which was simply a highway without traffic jams!
When Chu Zhongtian ran to the 30-meter area, Eduardo divided the football on the side road.
Dortmund's defender Felipe Santana had to come and add Schmelzer's position.
Facing this Brazilian central defender, Chu Zhongtian directly passed the football sideways and continued to run forward.
Ibisevic, who received the pass from Chu Zhongtian in the middle, did not stop the ball, but directly stuffed the ball diagonally, two and one!
Chu Zhongtian broke into the penalty area!
"Chu Zhongtian has entered! Beautiful cooperation! Dortmund's defense is completely empty! He can shoot directly..."
Dortmund's penalty area was in chaos after Chu Zhongtian received the ball for the second time.
Santana came to block Chu Zhongtian, and Subotic also came to block Chu Zhongtian. In addition, Tinga was chasing behind, Chu Zhongtian attracted three defensive players like a magnet. He gathered three people here, which means that Dortmund's defense would not be so tight in other places... So Chu Zhongtian did not shoot directly, but swept the football from Subotic and Tinga before!
Pass back with one kick!
Ibissevic, who had just made a wall for Chu Zhongtian, just hit the ball, and there was not even a Dortmund defender beside him. Two central defenders and a midfielder were attracted by Chu Zhongtian. Right defender Owo Moyela was restrained by Demba Ba, and left defender Schmelze had just run back to the midfield... Chu Zhongtian's ball was very comfortable, and Ibissevic ran towards him, without any adjustment at all. All he had to do was swing his right leg and kick out against the football!
"Ibisevic! Shooting-"
Weidenfell quickly moved to the middle when Chu Zhongtian passed the ball, but he didn't expect that Ibisevic was pushing the ball in the direction he was before. He passed by the football and fell to the ground to pounce. The football flew into the goal from the front of his palm!
"The ball is in!! Super Ibi scored twice!"
"gooooal!! Ibissevic's second goal in this game! His 23rd goal of the whole season!! That terrifying 'Super Ibis' is resurrected! And the person who brought this monster back was Chu! Two consecutive exquisite assists, and he directed the reversal of Hoffenheim in the second half!"
All the Dortmund players who conceded the ball were staring blankly as Ibisek pounced on Chu Zhongtian.
After passing the ball, Chu Zhongtian pulled out of the encirclement and stood in front of the billboard and waited for Ibisevic to pounce.
The two hugged each other again.
"Beautiful job, Ibi!"
"It's beautiful, Chu!"
This offense was not practiced many times before the game, and the two of them had not discussed it. It was entirely due to the tacit understanding of Metz's cooperation in the two and a half seasons. Ibissevic knew what to do when he saw Chu Zhongtian running forward. He did not follow the penalty area like Demba and Ba, and was preparing to take Chu Zhongtian's cross and head the ball. Instead, he stopped at the penalty area line, half turned around and leaned against defender Dortmund's central defender Santana, facing Chu Zhongtian, and waited for Chu Zhongtian to pass the ball to him.
Sure enough, Chu Zhongtian passed the ball over. After receiving the ball, he didn't even look up at the situation on Chu Zhongtian and pushed the ball over again. In this case, Chu Zhongtian must have sought to cooperate with him with two passes and one wall, otherwise Chu Zhongtian would not pass such a ball that made him unable to turn around. In this case, if he had to force his turn, it would be a waste of an offensive opportunity.
The defenders are used to focusing on football. Chu Zhongtian's pass attracted the defenders' attention to Ibisevic himself, so Chu Zhongtian must have time to go ahead.
With this idea in mind, Ibisevic passed the football over.
Sure enough, there was time in front of me, and Santana, who was defending himself, threw himself down and threw himself into Chu Zhongtian. Now he could easily complete the turn and run without anyone being able to keep an eye on Chu Zhongtian's feet, and no one would notice him. At this time, he could do anything.
Seeing that there were more and more Dortmund players around Chu Zhongtian, and looking at the huge space around him, if Ibissevic doesn't know what he should do, he is not worthy of being a striker, so he inserted it without hesitation.
At this time, it depends on how tacit understanding he and Chu Zhongtian are.
Of course there is no need to worry about this.
So he ran forward, Chu Zhongtian passed the ball backward, and met one by one in the most suitable position, and then the ball flew into the goal guarded by Weidenfeller... ※※"2:1!! Hoffenheim led the home team Dortmund away! If this score remains until the midfield, then many Tymond's home unbeaten record this season will be gone!"
The commentator was excited, and the Dortmund fans in the stands were also excited, and they were scolding Hoffenheim players.
Hoffenheim fans sang "Hoffenheim! Hoffenheim! Our Hoffenheim!"
They changed the lyrics and sang: "Bitch Legion! Bitch Legion! Your Bitch Legion!"
The security police at the scene were facing a big enemy. It seemed that the two teams were getting bigger and bigger... After seeing his team leading, Rangnick did not ask the team to shrink the defense. He shouted Chu Zhongtian on the sidelines, and then shouted to him: "Press up, press the whole game to defend!"
His intention is very clear, which is to use this kind of frontcourt pressing to compress Dortmund's offensive space so that their football cannot pass the half. The further away the football is from Hoffenheim's goal, the safer it is.
Hoffenheim's football has always been like this, with a fast pace, and he is active in the game, often snatching in the frontcourt, making the opponent uncomfortable. Their interception will continue to press to the front of the opponent's penalty area. Once the ball is grabbed, it will counterattack on the spot, catching the opponent off guard.
This is why Dortmund coach Klopp said that Hoffenheim is "very fierce in fighting", while Hamburg players say that Hoffenheim players "run like savages, running all over the field". Such tactics must have good physical fitness as a foundation, and Rangnick has always had strict requirements on the team's physical fitness. His training intensity is the highest in the Bundesliga. If he does not have physical fitness as a foundation, Hoffenheim will not be able to persist.
Hoffenheim often bombards the opponent's penalty area in the last stage of the game and scores goals, which is the conclusive evidence of their physical fitness. In the last game, Stuttgart suffered a loss. By the time of injury time, most of the players in Stuttgart could no longer run, and Hoffenheim's players were still alive. Among them, Chu Zhongtian was the best, and it was his last moment that dribbling and rushing to earn a penalty for the team.
Dortmund is eager to equalize the score, and Hoffenheim's siege tactic makes them uncomfortable. Although they know that Hoffenheim has a large open field in the backcourt, the football cannot be passed. If there is a long pass from big feet, a forward will face the defense of two defensive players. There are not many forwards who can score goals with less and more without support, but Dortmund does not now.
However, Hoffenheim even calmly overwhelmed the near-center line. With Chu Zhongtian as the core, he turned his feet back and forth. Chu Zhongtian ran from the left side of the court to the right, from the front to the back, constantly mobilizing Dortmund's defense line to find opportunities.
The Dortmund player, who is looking at winning, is becoming less and less likely to vent his anger on the opponent's knees.
After receiving the ball, Salihovic was pushed to the ground by the opponent. When he fell to the ground, his knee of his support leg was twisted and he fell to the ground and couldn't get up. After the team doctor checked, he decided to replace him. Head coach Rangnick had to use Teber to replace Salihovic, Eduardo went to the left, and Teber came to the right.
Although he injured the general at the end of the game, Hoffenheim defended the advantage of this goal.
When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, Chu Zhongtian was in control of the ball. He kicked the ball into the stands. Then he clenched his fists and stretched into the sky - he won!
"The game ends! The score is 1:2! Dortmund 1, Hoffenheim 2! The only two teams that remained unbeaten at home this season met, and now there is only one team left... Hoffenheim defeated Dortmund away and also broke the opponent's unbeaten home game! Hoffenheim is the only team that has captured Westphalon Stadium so far this season!"
"Today's Westfall Stadium came with 78,800 spectators, of which about 74,000 fans of the home team. So many people wanted to witness Dortmund's great victory over the league leader, but they didn't expect to see their first home court fall..."
"Chu Zhongtian's two assists helped Ibsevic out of the goal drought, and these two goals also allowed the team to defeat Dortmund 2:1. Chu Zhongtian's performance in this game was very outstanding! The only pity is that he was unable to play in the next game, and Hoffenheim's opponent in the next game is the powerful Werder Bremen!"
"After a fierce battle between Hoffenheim and Dortmund, Hoffenheim finally defeated Dortmund in the game. But who is the happiest person? It must not be Rangnick, but Bremen's head coach Schaff. Hoffenheim will play against Bremen at home in the next round of the league, but their two midfielders Chu and Weiss will definitely be absent due to the suspension. Another person, Salihovic, was injured and carried off the court before the game. The specific injury is not known yet. If it is serious, he will miss the game against Bremen. The most outstanding and stable person in this season is Hoffenheim's midfielder. Now the three main players in the midfield cannot play in the next game. If it is to win Bremen, there will be great difficulties even at home..."
That's true. Although he beat Dortmund, the heavy price he paid made head coach Rangnick a little laughed.
However, looking at the players who were still celebrating victory, he thought again - forget it, let's talk about the next round of the game, next round. At this time, we must celebrate the victory well, and we won the most terrifying home court in the Bundesliga!
He opened his arms and rushed towards the happy team members.
"Cheer, we won!!"
