Chapter 220 The turning point of the game?

During the halftime break, Klopp made adjustments to the team, in response to the situation where the team was beaten by Bayern Munich on both sides in the last stage of the first half. However, Klopp's adjustment was not to strengthen the defense on the side, but... to strengthen the offense on the side.

He believes that to curb Bayern Munich's rampant attack on the flank, of course, he must use a more rampant attack on the flank. When Dortmund's wing attack was more fierce, Bayern Munich's wing had to turn into defense, so he naturally had no time to attack and could not threaten Dortmund's defense.

This "violence against violence" approach is very consistent with Klopp's style. He doesn't care what to do if there is a gap behind him if there is a gap in the attack. He is very confident in his players.

Coincidentally, in the locker room of Bayern Munich, Heinkes also asked his team to continue to strengthen the offensive on both sides in the second half.

"Use our speed to beat them down on the wing!"

Bayern Munich has more capital to play on the wing than Dortmund, because they have Robben and Ram on the right and Ribery and Alaba on the left. These four people have extremely strong attack capabilities and are also very fast, and can form a continuous wing offensive and continuously put pressure on Dortmund.

In comparison, Dortmund's offensive power on the wing was slightly worse, especially after Gotze was injured, Kuba was unable to completely make up for the vacancy left by Gotze.

The head coaches of the two teams chose the wing as the place for the decisive battle.

※※※

In the second half of the game, the two sides changed sides and then fought again, and no one made a substitution adjustment.

Because of the same adjustment, the two teams were on the wing and striking the wing as soon as they got up.

In the 46th minute, Reus dribbled the ball and made a cross on the right. Lewandowski knocked the ball away with Boateng's close interference. One minute later, Ribery launched a fast attack on the left side of Bayern Munich. After he and Schweinsteiger made a wall-to-walk and drove the ball into Dortmund's penalty area. However, when he broke through, he was a little bigger. Piszczek seized the opportunity to cut in, protected the football, and let the football roll out of the bottom line.

In the 50th minute, on the wing, Bayern Munich launched a very threatening attack. Alaba sent the overhead ball from the left side of the frontcourt and passed the ball to the left side of the penalty area.

After receiving the ball, Gomez was posted by Hummels, and at the same time Piszczek came to surround him. Under the pressing of two Dortmund players, Gomez was unable to control the football well. The football rolled out, and Weidenfeller quickly attacked and kicked the football out before Thomas Muller!

The two teams played the wing offensive, and Ribery, Robben, Ram, Alaba, Reus, Kuba, Piszczek, Schmelze and other wing players were active and appeared in close-ups many times.

In comparison, the players in the middle seem to be quieter.

During this period, Zhou Yi did the most job he did was to divide the football side and then divide the football side.

In fact, his job is quite important, because choosing the right pass timing is often related to the success or failure of this offense. If the pass is too early, the teammates will not receive the ball. After the pass is finished, it slows down the attack speed and gives the opponent time to arrange defense lines.

But although this job is very important, it is really not cool enough or show off. How can a simple pass be more eye-catching than a lightning speed dribbling on the wing?

Unless Zhou Yi's pass is "NO_LOOK_PASS" or a fancy pass on the heel.

But this is impossible.

※※※

Although Zhou Yi's appearance rate is not as high as that of the two teams' wing players during this period, it does not mean that he can be ignored.

In the 58th minute, Zhou Yi received the ball at the front of Bayern Munich's penalty area. He turned to the right, as if he was going to pass the football to Reus, who was on the side. Bayern Munich responded quickly, and the overall defensive focus shifted to the other side.

Zhou Yi leaned back and swung his right foot. It seemed that he was really going to pass the football. Even Gustavo in front of him also stepped forward and wanted to intercept the pass.

But after Zhou Yi swung his right foot, he swung past the football, then quickly swung back, and knocked the football from behind him to the middle on the inside of his heel!

At the same time, he quickly turned around and turned to the middle!

Then he didn't give anyone time to react, and he shot with a foot just one step away from the top of the free throw arc!

This was indeed too unexpected, and Bayern Munich's players did not react.

For example, Boateng, who was on the shooting route, didn't even have time to hide his open arms, and the football hit him!

Handball!

Zhou Yi raised his arm as soon as possible and signaled to the referee.

Without letting him wait, Gagelman's whistle sounded almost at the same time.

"Punishment?! Yes, penalty!" Marcel Leif said in a confirmation tone after seeing Gagelman's gesture.

While Gagel whistled, he ran to the penalty area, and his hand... also pointed to the penalty spot!

This series of actions proves that it is undoubtedly a penalty kick!

The commentator of the Munich Radio Station complained to Boateng: "This is a ball player. Boateng has already stopped, but he just couldn't beat the football quickly! This penalty award is too far-fetched!"

At first glance, it sounds quite reasonable, but it actually doesn't make sense. Handball is not a matter of whether it is a hand-player or a ball player. If Boateng had his hands tightly against his body and was hit by the football, Gagelman would have to argue with a penalty. But when Boateng touched the ball, his arm was open, so it must be a penalty. Not to mention that Boateng was about to stop, as long as he did not take it back, then this kind of defense would be meaningless.

You should know that in the 1998 World Cup, in the group stage between Italy and Chile, Robert Baggio kicked the Chilean player's arm outside the penalty area. The referee decisively awarded Italy a penalty kick, and Robert Baggio himself took the penalty, relieving his penalty nightmare in the United States four years ago.

So there is no problem with the referee Gagelman's penalty.

Boateng and other Bayern Munich players also tried to appeal from this perspective, but Gagelman was unmoved and insisted on his own decision. He stood at the penalty spot, waved his head and waved, signaling them to retreat.

"Hey? Penalty? It's a penalty! Dortmund won the penalty!" Duan Xin shouted. "From the slow motion, when Zhou Yi shot, Boateng really wanted to hide, but his arm did not dodge... But from the rules, there is no problem with this penalty!"

There was also a heated discussion on the Internet: "Damn, this ball is the ball hitter!"

"What's wrong with the ball hitter? His arm is so wide that even if he is kicked by a football, it will be a penalty kick!"

"Zhou Yi didn't deliberately aim at Boateng and hit him, right?"

"Uh, he probably won't have such accurate footwork..."

"That's hard to say..."

※※※

No one knows whether Zhou Yi really did it on purpose, but after the penalty kick, he was hugged by Gundoan beside him immediately. Lewandowski and Kuba also ran up to celebrate with Zhou Yi.

No matter what, this penalty kick was created by Zhou Yi.

This penalty was taken by Lewandowski, who had already scored a goal in this game. Faced with this opportunity to come, he will score twice.

Lewandowski put the football on the penalty spot, then stepped back, preparing to run and take the penalty kick.

The West** Stadium, which was very noisy before, fell into silence.

Everyone was watching Bayern Munich's door with a breath of concentration.

Especially in the south stand of West** Stadium behind the goal, the Dortmund fans were even more moved, for fear of interfering with Lewandowski.

"Bortmond won a penalty, which is a great opportunity to break the deadlock... As long as Dortmund can hold the lead, they can win this crucial game!"

"So far this season, Lewandowski has scored 24 goals and is currently ranked first in the league scorer list. Two more goals than Leverkusen's Kislin. If this goal is scored again, it can expand his advantage over Kislin...it will help him win the top scorer of the season!"

The narrators' chattering stopped after Lewandowski's station was settled.

For a moment, the TV was quiet inside and outside.

In this quiet, the whistle of referee Gagelman is particularly clear.

Lewandowski in the camera took a deep breath, then ran up, kicking the ball with his straight right instep!

With a bang, the football was kicked hard by Lewandowski in the lower right corner of the goal. It was a very difficult place, but as long as it hits within the goal frame, the goal rate will be extremely high.

The goalkeeper's favorite penalty kick is the opponent's half-high ball to both sides of their bodies, and the closeness to the earth is the least they are willing to face.

Lewandowski certainly knew this, so to be on the safe side, he kicked the football in the lower right corner of the goal!

When the football came out, Lewandowski felt a feeling of "the ball has it".

But then, he saw Bayern Munich goalkeeper Neuer in front of the goal and rushed towards the lower right corner of the goal!

He seemed to have known that Lewandowski was going to kick there, even earlier than Lewandowski shot!
