Chapter one hundred and forty-three storms

The fifteen-minute intermission was over with everyone's impatient waiting.

When both players stood on the court, the game did not start immediately.

The fourth official raised the substitution sign on the sidelines, and Yan Min stood beside him, waiting to be replaced.

This new situation surprised He Ping: "Yan Min is going to be replaced! This time Klopp gave him time for half a game! This adjustment is indeed... If Klopp wants to strengthen the offense, Yan Min is definitely a good candidate! And replacing Yan Min means that Dortmund will sound the charge for the second half of the total attack!"

Marcel Lef also expressed his affirmation for Klopp's substitution: "Yan Min came on as a substitute against Arsenal and Bayern Munich and performed very well. When the team needed to score three goals in the second half, it was indeed a very correct way to consider replacing Yan Min..."

"Yan Min, a young Chinese player, will join Dortmund from China this summer..." The Italian commentator also began to introduce Yan Min to Italian domestic TV audiences when he saw this. Of course, if Yan Min had not performed well recently, the Italian commentator would not have introduced so detailed. "In the Champions League group stage, Dortmund performed well in the game against Arsenal at home, and was a key figure in Dortmund's victory. In the last league game, against Bayern Munich, he performed very actively after coming on as a substitute, and gave an assist to help Dortmund finally draw Bayern Munich at home... He is a player with strong personal breakthrough ability, fast speed, strong explosiveness, and excellent skills under his feet. The defenders of Naples have to cheer up when facing him..."

The midfielder Shahin was replaced by Yan Min.

This substitution adjustment was made in the locker room, so Shahin didn't have to play, he was now sitting on the bench.

The fourth official raised the sign and told everyone that Dortmund had made a substitution. Yan Min ran to the court without having to hand over to anyone.

Dortmund, who replaced Shahin and Yan Min, looked a bit like the formation he had when he played against Bayern Munich in the last league game.

Aubameyang takes the lead and plays a double striker with Mark. Yan Min occupies Aubameyang's original position, while others' positions remain unchanged.

As He Ping said, replacing Yan Min means Dortmund sounded the horn of the general attack.

Although Klopp encouraged and comforted his players in the locker room and did not worry, from the tactical arrangement, he had no intention of waiting patiently.

So from the beginning of the second half, except for Napoli's kick-off and launched an offensive, it was basically Dortmund's goal besieged Napoli.

At the beginning, when Dortmund was siege like this, the Italian commentator kept telling the audience in front of the TV that this was a great opportunity for Nobles to fight back!

But soon he stopped saying that.

Because facing Dortmund's aggressive attack, Napoli couldn't even pass the half, so why would he say to counterattack?

In the fifth minute of the second half, Yan Min pretended to break through on the left side, then dunked the ball back with his left foot, and then he made a cross with his right foot. Mark grabbed the landing point in the middle and headed the ball, slightly off.

In the 53rd minute three minutes later, Borussia Dortmund sent a straight pass by Zhou Yi in the counterattack. He accurately found Reus. Reus shot diagonally from the left side of the penalty area and missed again.

A minute later, Dortmund made a comeback. Zhou Yi distributed the football to Reus on the right in the middle, and Reus swept the football horizontally to the goal. Mark planned to shoot at the back point, but unfortunately, before him, the Naples defender had already blocked the football and fell into the hands of goalkeeper Renner who was attacking...

In the 55th minute, when Zhou Yi was leading a breakthrough in the frontcourt, he was knocked to the ground by Behrami. The referee Carvalho decisively blew the whistle and fouled Behrami. In addition to the verbal warning, he also gave Dortmund a free kick.

The free kick was still taken by Reus. Although the ball was a bit far away from the goal, Reus still shot directly!

After the football crossed the wall, it looked like it was about to fly straight out of the bottom line.

But after arriving in the penalty area, the football suddenly fell!

Reiner hesitated for a moment at first, but when he saw the football fall, he quickly took a step back, then jumped up, stretched out his hands, and lifted the falling football out before the beam!

"Oh! This ball...it seems to have a drop!" This result surprised the commentators.

※※※

In the 58th minute, this time it was Napoli that finally attacked Dortmund's penalty area front.

Behrami took the ball in the middle and then planned to pass it diagonally to his teammates on the penalty area line.

As a result, his intention to pass the ball was too obvious. Kyle, who was defending him from the front, saw through it and blocked the football with one foot!

Then Kyle passed the football to Zhou Yi, who was nearby.

Zhou Yi was passing horizontally to Yan Min in front of him.

While Yan Min received the ball, the Naples players also forced him up.

Yan Min gently tweaked the ball to the right side with his right foot, then jumped up lightly, just flashing past the Naples player's robbery.

Then he caught up with the football and ran forward with the ball!

Naples' second player immediately leaned forward. Yan Min did not continue to dribble and break through this time, but passed the ball to Reus who cut from the right to the middle.

It was a great pass because Reus was not at all pointing out!

Because Dortmund's counterattack was intercepted during Naples' attack, Naples was caught off guard, and there were not enough people to retreat, and it seemed a little panicked.

Reus took advantage of this panic and received Yan Min's pass without anyone noticing.

Then Reus dribbled forward, and Zema Yili caught up from behind, but Reus had been halfway away. He pulled Reus' jersey, but when he thought that if he fouled now, he would give Dortmund a free kick that was not as good as the position, so he hesitated and let go of his hand.

Reus also took the opportunity to throw away Zema Yili and hit the top of the free throw arc.

At the same time, Mark was originally on the left and followed the inward movement to the middle.

He and Reus happened to meet at the top of the free throw arc. He was in the front and pulled Napoli's defender to the middle, plus the central defender who was already defending Reus in the middle, and Zema Yili, who caught up from behind. It means that all Napoli's defensive power is now concentrated in the small free throw arc, and both the left and the right are completely blank!

On the left, Zhou Yi has been plugged in at high speed, which can be seen by everyone.

He Ping shouted anxiously: "Pass! Pass!"

He wanted Reus to pass it to Zhou Yi.

Reus also saw Zhou Yi cutting inward on the left side, so he pushed the football over with his right foot!

"Good ball!" Marcel Lef cheered Reus' pass.

The football rolled towards Zhou Yi, but he saw that he did not speed up to meet the ball while running, but began to adjust his pace. He stepped forward with a big step, just adjusting his pace to the most appropriate rhythm, and then he swung his right foot!

Keep the ball and shoot directly!

He rubbed the football inside his right foot. The football flew up, drew an arc in the air, and turned directly to the back corner of the goal!

"Zhou Yi——Shot—!!"

Goalkeeper Reiner flew away and stretched his arm to his limit, but he was unable to touch the football!

He looked back at the goal, saw the football bypass him, and flew straight into the goal!

"Zhou Yi!! Zhou Yi!!" Marcel Leif shouted Zhou Yi's name excitedly. "In the 58th minute, he expanded his lead for Dortmund! The goal was very, very beautiful!! Perfect arc! A direct shot that kept the ball! Dortmund is only two goals away from their goal! And the second half started thirteen minutes!!"

※※※

As the football flew into the goal, a huge cheer burst out from West** Stadium, which was rushing toward everyone on the stadium. To the Dortmund players, the cheers seemed to be a needle for a heart-warming shot, making them excited.

And in Napoli players, the cheers are like death knells... Their own home stadium, Sao Paulo, is also known for fanaticism, but at Dortmund's home stadium, they are still shocked by the enthusiastic fans.
