"Mark! Mark! Beautiful spoon penalty! He tied the score for Dortmund again! This is also his eighteenth league goal this season! He tied Lewandowski, and two of them were on the league scorer list!"

The cry of the informant Marmarcel Leif came from the TV.

Guardiola's room fell into silence again.

After a while, someone said, "Okay, the draw is a good result for us too..."

Because Dortmund originally only led Bayern Munich by one point, if Dortmund is tied in this game, then Bayern Munich, who won the ball, will overtake Dortmund again, lead Dortmund by one point, and become the first in the league.

With only two rounds left in the league, even if Bayern Munich only leads by one point, it is impossible to lose the league championship again.

On the TV, Marcel Lef was still saying: "...I think Lewandowski would be very unhappy if he learned this news, because he was put on the bench by Guardiola in the just-concluded game against Werder Bremen. Bayern Munich scored five goals in that game, but it had nothing to do with him..."

※※※

When Mark kicked the penalty kick into the goal, Dortmund's bench and coaching bench were once again filled with joy.

"Down two times and equalized twice, Dortmund performed very tenaciously in this game! Although Zhou Yi did not start, Dortmund's fighting spirit was not weakened..." Duan Xin was also happy for Dortmund's performance.

As a Chinese commentator, he certainly hopes that Zhou Yi can get enough rest, and at the same time, Dortmund can win the game. It is best if Zhou Yi doesn't need to play in this game...

Mark ended the celebration, and as he walked back, he turned his head and looked at the bench. He saw Zhou Yi and waved his fists at him.

Zhou Yi naturally saw Mark's move, and he responded with his thumbs up.

Mark was seeking credit for Zhou Yi, and Zhou Yi gave him a thumbs up and praised him.

The two friends completed the communication in such a tacit understanding.

※※※

Dortmund, who equalized the score, had a strong morale. In the 40th minute, Mkhitaryan almost helped the team overtake the score.

At that time, Mkhitaryan successfully made a steal in the frontcourt and got a chance to score a single shot, but Leno made a timely attack and blocked his shot from the bottom line.

Not long after that, the first half ended.

"...The first half ended! Leverkusen temporarily tied with Dortmund at home!" Marcel Leff said. "When Wolfsburg was tied 2:2 by Freiburg at home, Leverkusen had a good opportunity to consolidate his fourth place in the league, but they are now tied with Dortmund. Both teams are probably not satisfied with this draw. So there will be changes and adjustments in the second half. What we care most about is... Will Klopp let Zhou Yi appear during the break?"

Perhaps many Chinese fans hope that Zhou Yi can play early, but Klopp does not intend to do so.

During the halftime, he praised the players in the locker room, believing that they performed very well, especially after falling behind twice, and being able to quickly equalize the score.

Klopp encouraged the players to continue their efforts in the second half and strive to win the opponent.

On the other hand, Leverkusen's coach Sasha Lewandowski is also encouraging his players to fight Dortmund to the death in the second half.

※※※

After the game started in the second half, neither team made any personnel adjustments. Zhou Yi was still sitting on the bench and was not replaced.

This has made many Chinese fans both disappointed and worried.

Of course I was disappointed and could not see Zhou Yi's game. I was worried that it was too dangerous for Klopp to play like this. I would not allow Zhou Yi to play in the second half. There was not enough time left for Zhou Yi. If there was anything at that time, I would probably be powerless if I wanted Zhou Yi to turn the tide...

After the second half of the game began, the two sides continued to tremble together.

In the 47th minute, Mark kicked Sparshic down and received a yellow card. In the 52nd minute, Spashic also received a yellow card for a foul on Mark.

In the 54th minute, Son Heung-min shot from a distance twenty-five meters away from the goal, and the football was confiscated by Weidenfeller. In the 60th minute four minutes later, Son Heung-min shot from a distance twenty meters away from the goal, but the football slightly missed the post...

It was about to be sixty minutes after the game was approaching, and Dortmund and Leverkusen were still entangled and the situation was still unclear.

At this time, Klopp finally decided to make the first substitution adjustment.

He asked his assistant coach Buvac to call Zhou Yi back.

Zhou Yi was called to warm up several minutes ago, but not alone, but with other substitutes.

This kind of warm-up has no special significance, but to avoid the substitute players sitting on the bench chair for a long time and their blood circulation is not smooth and their bodies become cold.

At the same time, this kind of warm-up is of course to prepare for a substitute to appear at all times. When you need to be replaced, you don’t have to specifically warm up the body.

For example this time.

Zhou Yi was called back soon, and the TV broadcast captured the scene as soon as possible.

Marcel Leif immediately said excitedly: "Yo! Dortmund seems to be a substitution! Klopp can't hold back. If he wants to change the situation on the field at this time, the first person he can think of is of course Zhou Yi! After resting and playing the half-game, Zhou Yi will come on as a substitute! Can his appearance change the current situation of the game between the two sides?"

Duan Xin was also very excited: "Zhou Yi is about to play. Whenever Dortmund encounters difficulties, Zhou Yi is the one who will be highly expected. However, there are not many times when you come on as a substitute to save the team, because most of the time, Zhou Yi plays the starting lineup..."

※※※

When Zhou Yi stood on the sidelines and listened to assistant coach Buvac assigning tasks to him, players on both sides of the court also noticed him.

Dortmund players felt a little regretful when they saw Zhou Yi going to play - they still couldn't defeat this opponent without Zhou Yi.

Leverkusen players are a little nervous.

They strengthened their offensive, hoping to rewrite the score before Zhou Yi takes the field and make the rice mature. Even if Zhou Yi comes on the field, he believes that he can do nothing to face Leverkusen, who has contracted defense.

Facing Leverkusen's fierce attack, why would Dortmund players not know what they were thinking?

Of course, you have to try your best to stop them from scoring the goal at this time.

Fortunately, Zhou Yi didn’t have to warm up now, which saved a lot of time.

Buvac didn't have so many tactical details to explain to him.

Soon, Zhou Yi appeared on the sidelines and was about to be replaced.

At this time, the football fell to the feet of Dortmund player Yan Min. He kicked the football directly to the left side of the frontcourt with a big foot. After the football landed, it flew out of the sideline. The game entered a dead ball state, and Dortmund could substitute.

"Dortmond substitutes! No. 23 Zhouyi, No. 10 Mkhitaryan!"

The fourth official raised the substitution sign on the sidelines, and the referee also signaled that it was possible to substitution.

"Zhou Yi is still here..."

In Guardiola's room, someone sighed.

If possible, they hope that Zhou Yi will not play in this game. Although Zhou Yi may not necessarily help Dortmund win if he plays, at least it increases the chance of Dortmund winning.

"There are thirty minutes left, so there is not much time left for him..."

As Dortmund's archenemy, Bayern Munich coaches often study Zhou Yi's ability, so they naturally understand it very clearly.

They all know what Zhou Yi means to play.

He was definitely not going up to warm up.

※※※

Mkhitaryan was substituted, and he and Zhou Yi hugged each other on the sidelines.

After transferring to Dortmund this season, he only became the team's starter in the more than a month when Zhou Yi was injured, and at other times he was Zhou Yi's substitute.

But now he has no temper with being a substitute.

Being a substitute for Zhou Yi is not a shameful thing, but also a matter of no temper. Zhou Yi's performance is really good, not only convinced his opponent, but also convinced Mkhitaryan, a competitor in the team.

Of course, Klopp did not forget to pat Mkhitaryan on the shoulder and praised his performance.

After Zhou Yi came on the court, he made a two-handed push to his teammates, signaling his teammates not to worry and be steady.

Although everyone is not satisfied with the draw, if you have to accept this result, Leverkusen is obviously more acceptable than Dortmund.

If the situation is wrong, Leverkusen can completely shrink and fight a defensive counterattack.

Anyway, Wolfsburg was tied by Freiburg, so Leverkusen won a draw and it would not affect their ranking.

However, Dortmund cannot accept the draw. If they draw in this game, they will be surpassed by Bayern Munich.

So Dortmund must win.

If Leverkusen knew this, they should know how to deal with Dortmund.

Zhou Yi did not want the team to seize the opportunity to fight back because of their rush to attack. Son Heung-min performed very actively in the counterattack and had threatened Dortmund's goal many times.

The score is now 2:2. Zhou Yi does not need Dortmund to launch a bombardment at Leverkusen's goal. In this case, there is no need to pay attention to the quantity of attacks, but the quality of attacks.

Just one goal was required.
Chapter completed!
