Chapter 250: Running out of oil?

Outsiders don’t know what Zhou Yi is thinking, but when he sees Zhou Yi’s embarrassed look, he thinks that Zhou Yi is almost unable to hold on.

As the core of Dortmund, if he can't stand it, it will definitely not be good news for Dortmund...

Dortmund fans were worried and kept praying to God, Zhou Yi must not fall...

In fact, Zhou Yi's physical performance this season has greatly exceeded their expectations.

In the past, Zhou Yi gave them the impression that they were weak in physical strength, and being able to persist in playing for 90 minutes was considered to be extraordinary. There has always been a view that physical fitness is the only bottleneck that restricts Zhou Yi from becoming a world-class midfielder. The physical ability to confront each other is not, but physical fitness.

In terms of physical confrontation ability, Xavi and Pirlo are not outstanding, but I have never heard of them being in poor physical condition.

Modern football attaches great importance to physical fitness. Without physical fitness, don’t talk about anything.

However, Zhou Yi's physical fitness has improved by leaps and bounds this season, which is surprising, but it is also gratifying that Zhou Yi finally broke through the damn bottleneck.

This season, except for being rotated for two games, Zhou Yi did not miss any of the remaining games, and he was replaced in advance rarely. He played all his time in most games.

Even during the two games for a week, he did not fall into the chain.

So Zhou Yi's physical fitness this season is excellent. It's been a long time since you saw Zhou Yi like today.

However, after playing the last game in a season, the Champions League final was so fast-paced and high-intensity, which required the players' physical fitness.

Originally, after a season of consumption, there was only a lot of reserves left. If you encounter such a game and play for 115 minutes, it would be normal for Zhou Yi to be so embarrassed.

Although it is a normal thing, it still makes Dortmund fans very worried.

It’s not that they don’t understand the difficulties of the players, but at this last moment, they also hope that the players will need customer service no matter how difficult it is. We spent so much effort and paid such a big price. We finally got to the last step. To give up, even if the reason for giving up is sufficient, it makes people feel unwilling...

※※※

Zhou Yi's situation was not only noticed by fans, but also seen by the commentators.

This seems to further confirm their idea that Dortmund is likely to collapse.

"Zhou Yi looks very tired... This is normal. He kept running for 115 minutes in this game. With his physical fitness, he has performed well..." He Ping said, his tone with worry and helplessness.

He did not express his concerns, for fear of ruining the mood of the Chinese audience in front of the TV.

Actually, it’s not necessary for him to say that the Chinese fans in front of the TV are not fools, blind people, they can see and guess.

Many worried voices appeared on the Internet.

"Zhou Yi looks like he can't run anymore. Klopp won't replace him, right?"

"Damn! If I really replace Zhou Yi, I will turn off the TV!"

"That's right, Zhou Yi is over, Dortmund is still farting! If I were Klopp, as long as Zhou Yi still had the strength to stand on the court, I wouldn't replace him, even if he was allowed to pass the ball forward in the backcourt!"

"I'm afraid that the captain Zhou Yi's strength to pass the ball is gone. What can he do if he stays on the court..."

"Zhou Yi's way of playing football depends very much on physical fitness. His performance this season is already outstanding. Fortunately, he is still young. Even if he doesn't work this year, there will always be a comeback... I can only comfort myself like this..."

"You are right upstairs, but when you make a comeback, will Zhou Yi still wear a Dortmund jersey?"

"If I really lose the Champions League championship, I'm afraid Zhou Yi has no reason to stay in Dortmund... Actually, I really like this Dortmund, young, passionate, creative, and imaginative... Klopp is also very charming. If he fails to win the Champions League championship in the end, it would be a pity... This may be the best opportunity for this team..."

"Geze has been confirmed to leave. If Zhou Yi leaves again, the team can fall apart..."

Everyone was sad about Dortmund and Zhou Yi.

※※※

Zhou Yi would never know what the fans and commentators viewed him.

He was still in the same position as before, breathing heavily, and even breathing greedily.

He did not urge the referee to remind him that Bayern Munich's celebration time was obviously used too much. He did not comfort his teammates or encourage them.

All he can do now is to hurry up and recover from all worldly things.

With fifteen minutes left in the game, Dortmund has not yet reached the end of his life. In the fifteen minutes, it is still possible to score a goal.

The Bayern Munich players finally finished their celebration. They ran back to their half happily, and some of them kept waving their fists in the stands. This was to respond to their fans and to show off their power to Dortmund fans.

When they ran back to their half, Zhou Yi was still breathing heavily.

It was not until they stood up and Lewandowski and Mark were both preparing to kick off in the middle circle that Zhou Yi stood up and slowly walked towards the middle circle.

His move also attracted the attention of Bayern Munich players.

Seeing Zhou Yi's appearance, Bayern Munich players breathed a sigh of relief. Zhou Yi was obviously almost out of reach. Dortmund had not collapsed yet, but he was about to collapse first. Once he collapsed, it was the beginning of Dortmund's collapse.

Bayern Munich is already sure to win this game!

※※※

The referee Rizzoli whistled, and Mark and Lewandowski drove the football out. Mark turned around and passed the football back to Zhou Yi outside the middle circle.

But Zhou Yi did not move any action. He did not catch the ball, but let the football roll over from his feet without even looking at it.

The football didn't roll fast, but Zhou Yi didn't catch it because the ball was too fast and he couldn't catch it.

Immediately afterwards, the referee Rizzoli's whistle sounded again and the first half of the overtime game ended!

Zhou Yi's action was understood to see "a symbol of giving up because of lack of physical strength and lack of ability"...

Only Zhou Yi knew in his heart that he just didn't want to waste his energy. It was clear that the ball was kicked out and the first half of the overtime game ended. Why did he care about the ball? His physical fitness is indeed at the red line now. He can save a little, and he may play a role in the second half of the overtime game.

Now he is very stingy about physical fitness and he will not allow any extra waste, even if it is a slightest.

An excellent professional player must learn to manage and allocate his physical fitness most reasonably.

So Zhou Yi would not do such meaningless actions.

After the referee's whistle sounded, he let the football roll behind him, turned around and walked slowly towards the sidelines.

He didn't walk fast, and it could be seen that his chest was still undulating violently.

This gave everyone a deep impression. Zhou Yi was exhausted. Even if Klopp didn't replace him, he would not be able to make any difference for the remaining fifteen minutes.

Although the rules stipulate that there is no rest between the first and second half of the overtime game, both sides will directly exchange venues to start the second half of the game.

But in actual operation, there is no such strict requirement. Players will take this opportunity to go to the sidelines to drink water, take the opportunity to take a break, and take a breath. The head coach will also seize the time to communicate with the players and make adjustments.

As long as it is not too much, the referee will not care about it and the referee needs to rest. He enforces the law on the court and runs for 115 minutes, which is also a huge test for their physical fitness, and they are generally older than the players.

As Zhou Yi walked slowly to the sidelines and picked up the water bottle to drink water, Klopp rushed to him and leaned closer and asked, "Can you still persist?"

Zhou Yi smiled a little lazy: "Of course."

"Then I see you..." Klopp refers to Zhou Yi's series of performances just now.

"I just don't want to waste my physical fitness on unnecessary things, coach." Zhou Yi explained.

Klopp noticed that Zhou Yi was even speaking slower than usual, and he didn't know if he didn't want to focus on speaking, or if he was really exhausted...

But he can only choose to believe in Zhou Yi now. In fact, he has not considered replacing Zhou Yi, but he has thought seriously that if Zhou Yi is replaced, it would probably be a huge and heavy blow to the team's morale.

Now in the team, he feels that Zhou Yi’s prestige has made him taller. Everyone thinks that Zhou Yi has a clear idea.

If Zhou Yi is still on the court, it will at least play a role in stabilizing the morale of the army.

Although his physical fitness is no longer good now and it may be useless to stay on the court, Klopp always has a mysterious trust in Zhou Yi, thinking that he may not know when Zhou Yi will be able to solve the problem with a flash of inspiration.

Klopp finally convinced himself not to change Zhou Yi, because he was holding such a "superficial" about Zhou Yi.

Of course, now seeing Zhou Yi clearly stated that his physical strength was not as unbearable as it showed, this "supercreation" became a little firmer.
