Chapter 84 First Appearance
When Yan Min was called back from the warm-up area by Buvac, he was still a little confused. When he ran back, he kicked deep and shallow - he never thought that his first appearance at Dortmund was actually a appearance in the Champions League!
He had never thought about when he would get a chance to play in Dortmund before. He believed that the biggest possibility was the German Cup.
Because the German Cup is not a very important game, this kind of game is easily used by Klopp as an opportunity to rest the main lineup, and will give the second team and substitute players the opportunity to play.
But after playing the German Cup on September 24, the next German Cup will have to wait until December. Doesn’t that mean that he will have to wait until December to play for Dortmund for the first time?
Although Yan Min was a little anxious, he had no choice.
He could only wait patiently for his opportunity.
Who would have thought that the appearance would come earlier than he expected!
And it's such an important occasion!
This is not the experience of trash time for him to go up and gangsters to appear, this is the appearance with a purpose!
After Yan Min ran back, Buvac pulled him to talk about tactics, letting him know exactly where to play and how to run after he came on the court.
Yan Min is learning German but has not fully learned it, so it is not easy to communicate with the language. Buvac used the simplest words and wrote and painted on the tactical board to make Yan Min understand.
The TV broadcaster also noticed the new changes in Dortmund and quickly cut through it. So everyone saw Yan Minzheng talking by Buvachi through the TV screen.
The Chinese fans in front of the TV suddenly climaxed.
"Damn it! Yan Min is going to appear?!"
"This appearance was so unexpected..."
"I didn't expect Yan Min to be the first to play in the Champions League!"
...
But some people are worried.
"When the team is not favorable, let Yan Min play... Does Klopp think that replacing Yan Min can solve the problem? This is too much pressure for Yan Min?"
"If Dortmund still loses the game in the end, will Yan Min take the blame for Klopp?"
But no matter what, there are only a few people who are worried, and there are still many people who are happy.
Even He Ping was very excited: "It seems that Yan Min is going to play. If he plays, he will become the eighth Chinese player to play in the Champions League!"
It sounds like eight Chinese players have played in the Champions League, and they don’t sound very high-ranking. But in fact, four of these eight people are Zhou Yi, Sun Pan, He Ying and Yang Muge. Before them, only three Chinese people appeared in the Champions League.
Therefore, it is not easy to become a Chinese player who plays in the Champions League. As long as Yan Min plays, he will always engrave his name in history.

Zhou Yi also saw this scene in front of the TV. He didn't expect Klopp would give Yan Min a chance to appear at this time.
"It's not good to let Yan Min appear at this time..." Father Zhou Jianliang muttered from the side.
"What's wrong with it?" Zhou Yi asked back.
"It's obvious..." Zhou Jianliang pointed to the TV screen and said. "Now Dortmund is facing difficulties and the offense cannot be started. So Klopp wants to replace Yan Min to strengthen the offensive. It can be said that Yan Min is responsible for playing. But before that, he has never even played a formal game in Dortmund for a minute, and he has challenged such a difficult task at the beginning. I don't think it's a good thing. Put too much pressure on him. What if he performs abnormally? He will bear the responsibility for losing at that time? Public opinion will ruin his..."
What Zhou Jianliang said makes sense, generally speaking, this should be the case.
But Zhou Yi shook his head and said, "Yan Min is different from ordinary people, and the general principles may not apply."
"Why is it different?"
"He is a little...recky." Zhou Yi carefully chose a word that he thought was most appropriate.

Buvac has already said everything he should say, Yan Min knows what he wants to do when he goes on the court. In fact, even if Buvac doesn't say it, Yan Min knows what he wants to do when he goes on the court - it's just to help Dortmund score a goal!
Then he was called to the sidelines and prepared to appear.
Klopp did not pull him to explain anything alone. On the one hand, Bouche had said everything he should have said, and on the other hand, he was speechless. He was afraid that Yan Min would not understand something, so he put too much pressure on him.
In fact, Klopp wanted to help Yan Min relieve stress so that he would not be under too much pressure. Although the current situation is that the team needs him to contribute, if it really doesn't work, don't force it. Now this problem is not something he can solve alone. As long as he can perform at his normal level, don't have any extra thoughts.
However, if language communication is not smooth, it may become stress relief.
So Klopp simply went to the cold treatment method and did not talk to Yan Min.
On the one hand, he sent Yan Min to believe that Yan Min had never had a substitute experience before. It was completely unknown what impact he could bring to the team after he appeared, it was a fresh experience and an experiment. It was better than those who knew what the result would be if they didn't have to play.
On the other hand, it is because Yan Min has been training hard and diligently, and he also needs to be encouraged by appearance.

With a chance to die, Dortmund can finally make a substitution.
Klopp replaced Yan Min, but the person who replaced it was Aubameyang.
"Yan Min is on the court! He replaces Aubameyang!" He Ping was very excited. He hoped to see more and more Chinese players appear on the top stage of the Champions League. "The first time I am worthy of commemoration is the Champions League. I hope he can bring us some surprises..."
The TV broadcast gave Yan Min a close-up shot. After he slapped Aubameyang on the sidelines, he ran onto the court. Judging from his expression, this kid was quite calm.
Marcel Leif is also paying attention to Yan Min. When he appeared, he introduced the player to German TV audiences: "He is from the same country as Zhou Yi. Like Zhou Yi, he did not get a chance to play immediately after joining Dortmund's first team. However, unlike Zhou Yi, he played in the first team earlier than Zhou Yi... This player was discovered by Dortmund during his trip to China this summer. At that time, he performed well in the game against Dortmund. Then Klopp asked the club to buy him... However, some sources said that Klopp decided to introduce Yan Min after asking Zhou Yi carefully... So we can say that Yan Min is a player favored by Zhou Yi, and Zhou Yi recommended him to the club. So is he worthy of Zhou Yi's optimism? We can wait and see..."
Because Marcel Leif is a German commentator, he must be very familiar with the signing situation of Dortmund, a German team. Moreover, due to Zhou Yi, he is also very curious about Yan Min, who is also a Chinese player, so he naturally did his homework in advance to understand Yan Min.
The commentators from other countries may not have so much spare time.
They can only read some very popular materials according to the script, and there is no more to know.
The foreign fans in front of the TV will not try to remember the information about an unknown person. The commentator has to read the information for his professional quality. Fans may not listen to it at all.
In this way, Yan Min appeared.
He replaced Aubameyang as the left winger.
Yan Min is a right-footed player, but when he was in Chongming, Shanghai, he played on the left, which allowed him to cut inward and then shoot. At the same time, he could also hit the right side. When he hit the right side, he made a cross to create a shooting opportunity for his teammates. This is his specialty.
So in fact, he is a relatively comprehensive player. Klopp chose him to be interested in his ability in this regard. Modern football is increasingly requiring players to be comprehensive. A comprehensive but not outstanding player is even more popular than a prominent but knowledgeable player.
The reason why Groskreuz was able to play at Dortmund was because of his comprehensiveness, and he could play almost any position except goalkeeper.
Although Yan Min is a right foot player, he has long-term experience in hitting the left side, which makes Klopp more flexible in using him.

After Yan Min came on the court, the game continued.
He half-guessed and half-guessed what Buvac wanted him to do after he went up, using his speed and disk brings to disrupt Arsenal's defense and create opportunities for his teammates.
At the same time, although the left winger on the field is the left winger, he is also allowed to switch positions with Reus under appropriate circumstances and cross from the right bottom. This is all to create trouble for Arsenal's defense and give other Dortmund players an opportunity to take advantage of it.
This job was very simple for him, and Yan Min was eager to try it out.
It took so long to get a chance to play. He was like a wild horse tied into a shed, impatiently looking forward to running wildly.
Of course, the Champions League stage is more eye-catching and more pressure than other occasions.
But so what?
Isn't this better?
