At the moment of their offensive, Dortmund was even compressed and could not pass the half.

Marcel Leif was exclaiming who was at home.

Of course, AC Milan has paid a price to play like this.

Their full-back Yankulovsky received a yellow card in the opening twenty-eight minutes.

In the 32nd minute, the midfielder Flamini was also late for a yellow card because of a foul on Zhou Yi. In addition, the yellow card he received on Zhou Yi in the last round, even if AC Milan could enter the quarterfinals, he would miss the first leg of the quarterfinals.

At the end of the first half, forward Pato also received a yellow card because he was too big in the fight...

In the first half, AC Milan only had three players, with people in front, middle and back. This can be reflected in the data. What cannot be reflected in the data is that AC Milan players' defensive actions are very large.

But they had no choice.

With Zhou Yi, Dortmund is a team that is very good at controlling football and rhythm. If they want to break Dortmund's rhythm, the most effective way is to make a foul...

Fouls can frequently interrupt Dortmund's ball possession rhythm.

Of course, it will also bring them extremely high risk of taking cards. After all, this is Dortmund's home court. The referee will more or less be slightly biased towards the home team.

At this time, in order to advance, AC Milan couldn't care about so much.

Facing AC Milan's siege, Dortmund struggled to deal with it, but at least he did not lose the ball.

Zhou Yi frequently uses passes to control the situation, but he has also become the target of AC Milan players' key defense. The yellow cards on Flamini and Pato are all eaten on him.

Allegri obviously also washed away the lessons learned from the failure of the first game, and he surrounded Zhou Yi in all aspects.

Of course, he also knew that it was impossible to completely lose Zhou Yi's role, so he chose to limit Zhou Yi's role in a certain part, such as attack...

His siege forced Zhou Yi to have more than just pass back or cross from behind, and could not pass forward, so Dortmund would not be able to play a threatening attack. This would allow AC Milan's defense to gain temporary safety so that AC Milan could concentrate on attacking and strive to score first before Dortmund scored and reverse the situation.

Standing on the sidelines, Allegri was staring at the court with his hands in his pockets, and closely watched the game development.

He believes that as long as AC Milan can score first, it will change the trend of the entire game and lay the foundation for the final reversal and victory...

However, until the end of the first half, he did not see a goal. Although Dortmund seemed to be difficult to deal with, he did not concede the ball. Their defensive toughness was greater than Allegri imagined...

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again. AC Milan still attacked Dortmund on the go. Dortmund was compressed to his own half and rarely attacked AC Milan's half.

This scene really made the fans of AC Milan excited. If it were at their home court, the cheers would have been heard throughout the sky.

But unfortunately this is at Dortmund's home court, so only the only ones scattered over the court...boos.

Amid booing, AC Milan charges at Dortmund's goal regardless of the slightest.

Not every time their offense can threaten the goal guarded by Weidenfeller.

Some attacks will be intercepted midway.

At this time, Dortmund's players will choose to kick the football forward with big feet, keeping Dortmund's goal away from danger for the time being.

But there are always exceptions in everything.

For example, this time, when Subotic was planning to drive the football out directly, he caught a glimpse of Zhou Yi's gesture to him for the ball.

He looked at the situation around Zhou Yi. Because Zhou Yi retreated to the wing, there were no AC Milan players around him for the time being. This was an opportunity to get the ball...

So he passed the football over.

But just when he passed the football, he saw AC Milan's midfielder Boateng rushing towards Zhou Yi!

But when he was observing himself, he was still far away!

This kid is like a black panther lying in the grass, carefully hiding his body, then waits for the opportunity, and then jumps up and pounces on his prey!

Obviously, Zhou Yi is his prey!

The key is that Zhou Yi, who turned his back to him, could not see him at all. It was impossible for him to know that behind him, a murderous black panther had already pounced on him.

Subotic wanted to remind Zhou Yi that he had just opened his mouth and the football had arrived in front of Zhou Yi, so he must have been too late.

So he quickly set off his defensive posture and prepared to welcome AC Milan's counterattack.

But at this moment, he saw Zhou Yi swing his foot towards the football and knocking the football horizontally to Sven Bend. At the same time, he quickly turned around, as if there was an eye behind his head, bypassing Boateng!

And when he turned around, Boateng was still a little dazed. He didn't expect that his sudden attack would be empty!

Subotic saw this scene and shouted excitedly in his heart: Good, Zhou Yi!

※※※

"Zhou Yi! Beautiful turn! He avoided Boateng's press!"

Sven Bend did not stop the ball, but instead passed the football passed by Zhou Yi to the front, with the goal of Zhou Yi who had turned around and rushed up!

Zhou Yi used a wall-to-walk two-pass one-coordinated combination to bypass Boateng.

Seeing Zhou Yi throwing away the defensive players, the other Dortmund players naturally knew what they should do.

Gotze, Groskreuz, Mark and Lewandowski moved quickly, some people ran forward, and some moved closer to Zhou Yi, ready to meet him.

Dortmund's offensive system suddenly started to operate after the half-game was silent, without any awkwardness, lubricating and smooth.

The core component of this system is naturally Zhou Yi who takes the ball.

After receiving the ball, he didn't even raise his head to observe it, and then raised his foot and passed it for a long time.

The football flew directly to Gotze's feet on the other side.

When he just passed the ball, Flamini hit him and the AC Milan player defended very quickly. If Zhou Yi stopped the ball and observed it, or took another step, he would be blocked by Flamini...

But he seemed to know this in advance, perfectly avoiding this risk!

After passing the ball, Zhou Yi did not stay in place and accelerated to run forward.
