According to the rules of the Champions League group stage, the top two can directly enter the quarterfinals. At first glance, it seems that the difference between the top and the second place qualifies is not very big, but if you analyze it carefully and in-depthly, it is not difficult to find that the difference is very big.

The draw rules for the quarterfinals of 16 knockout rounds are to play the top spots in eight groups against the second place in eight groups. That is to say, the teams that qualify for the first place can meet the second place in other groups, and any strong teams often qualify for the first place in the group.

Therefore, once you unfortunately get the second place in the group, you are likely to encounter the top and strong teams in other groups.

Someone once summarized a classic route to winning the Champions League, that is, from group stage to knockout stage, the opponent's strength gradually improves. The advantage is that it can gradually adjust the team, adjust its state, and finally achieve the best level in the final stage.

If you follow this line, it is undoubtedly quite unfavorable to encounter strong enemies in the quarterfinals.

Real Madrid's signing luck this season is very bad. He won the Premier League in the group stage, the Bundesliga and Eredivisie league championships. These teams are very strong and it is very troublesome to play. Judging from the first two rounds of games, Manchester City's problems are mainly focused on head coach Mancini, who has never been a head coach who is good at playing in the Champions League.

Ajax is the weakest among the four teams and has the least possibility of competing for the right to qualify.

On the contrary, Dortmund and Klopp's team have become the number one rival in Real Madrid's top team.

More importantly, according to the Champions League group stage schedule, Real Madrid and Dortmund will fight each other home and away in a row. These two games are crucial. Whoever has the advantage will take the lead in the competition for the top spot in the group.

For Real Madrid, the top spot in this group is determined to win, and there are no losses in the two games against Dortmund.

But what's so bad is that the injuries of Marcelo and Aveloa disrupted all the deployment of Real Madrid and lost two wing generals at once. This is not only the offensive end is weakened, but also the defensive end is facing Dortmund, who is also good at playing the wing.

The coaching staff led by Ancelotti allowed Azpilicueta and Carvajal to start at the same time, one left and one right. Judging from the start of the game, Carvajal was a little immature, but Azpilicueta did a good job against Reus, which was very stable and reassuring.

But just as Real Madrid gradually gained the advantage, Xavi Martinez's injury left the team, casting another shadow on the team.

After all, it's still the schedule.

So far this season, Real Madrid has participated in the most games in Europe. In addition to the domestic league and the Champions League, Real Madrid has also played three Super Cup games. In addition to the many international players in the team, the pressure on the game is really great.

Without injuries, the team will naturally be able to persist, but once injuries come, especially like the current one, one after another, it will be a big blow to the confidence of Real Madrid players.

Who knows, will anyone be injured next?

It was in this situation where people's hearts were fluctuating that Yang Yang decisively changed his playing style and expanded his range of activities.

Not long afterwards, the Hornet captain Kyle chose to pass back to Piszczek under pressure from David Silva.

...

There was no problem with Kyle's return pass because both Piszczek and Subotic were not far behind him at the time.

The problem is that Yang Yang suddenly jumped out of Subotic and headed straight for the pass line. Before Piszczek, he intercepted the ball and dribbled the ball and launched a quick counterattack towards Dortmund's penalty area.

This sudden goal conceded a stadium in an uproar.

Yang Yang dribbled the ball from the left and headed straight to the penalty area, but Subotic's reaction was also very fast and he was stuck in the inside.

This player met Yang Yang when he played for Mainz. Because Yang Yang visited Zheng Zhi at that time, he knew Subotic's strength clearly.

When he dribbled into the penalty area, Yang Yang slowed down immediately, and the pair kept pushing Subotic.

When Hazard in the middle and Di Maria in the back row had already followed, Yang Yang suddenly started and made a fake move to cut inward. After tricking Subotic, he suddenly dribbled the ball towards the bottom line and rushed up as fast as possible.

Subotic is tall and strong, but not fast, and is far less flexible than Yang Yang, so he was thrown away at once.

However, Yang Yang could not threaten the goal, because Subotic was chasing the inside, so Yang Yang could only use his left foot to pass the ball to the middle and pass it to the front point outside the small penalty area.

The whole process happened in the blink of an eye. When the ball passed from Subotic into the penalty area, Dortmund's central defender suddenly realized that Yang Yang was a winger and his left foot could be as proficient as his right foot.

When Yang Yang slowed down and faced Subotic, Hazard guessed Yang Yang's intention and immediately took the ball straight to the front point of the goal. Di Maria penetrated the penalty area from the right rib, interfering with Hummels' judgment.

When Yang Yang passed the ball out, the next thing was natural.

Hazard easily pushed the ball into the bottom of the net in the lower left corner of the goal.

After the Belgian scored the goal, he rushed to the left, and Yang Yang quickly chased after him, catching up with the excited Hazard in the corner kick area, and grabbed Hazard's head vigorously, as if a big brother was confirming the achievements he had achieved.

Hazard was also extremely excited, turned around and hugged Yang Yang hard, and kept thanking him.

He knew very well that more of the credit for this goal came from Yang Yang's assist. If Yang Yang had not expanded the scope of the activity, intercepted Kyle's pass, and then forcibly broke through Subotic one-on-one, he would not have had such a goal opportunity.

Real Madrid players also rushed over to congratulate Hazard on his goal.

It can be said that this goal greatly resolved the pressure faced by Real Madrid.

…………

…………

After scoring the goal, the game situation was completely opened.

Dortmund gave up the contraction defense at the opening stage. Klopp was obviously very clear that the trap he dug for Real Madrid was not enough to make Real Madrid fatal. The main reason was that the highlight of the counterattack, the Royce side did not work when facing Azpilicueta.

This Spanish defender was a guest appearance on the left but performed very steadily, which was really surprising.

Dortmund was one goal behind at home, and he had no choice.

After returning to the original tactical style, the Hornets began to exert pressure on Real Madrid in the midfield and frontcourt.

This is Dortmund's usual tactic, which is used like an arm to use fingers.

Dortmund's large-scale pressing pressure also made Real Madrid's midfield and backcourt mistakes. Pepe was pressed by Lewandowski during a catch. When he passed it back to the midfield and Mascherano, he made a mistake. After the ball was cut by Kyle, he passed it straight and was behind the defense.

Lewandowski quickly started from the middle of Ramos and Pepe, formed a single shot in the penalty area, scored a goal, and scored a goal for Dortmund. Both sides returned to a one-to-one draw.

But at this time, the pace of the game had been slowed down and neither side had any more reservations.

The styles of the two teams are very similar. When the situation is opened, there is no fancy at all. Just pulling the situation away is just doing it.

Just two minutes later, Azpilicueta intercepted the backcourt, and Ramos passed to Xavi Alonso, who gave a long pass over the top, accurately crossed the heads of two tall central defenders of Dortmund and landed in the penalty area.

Yang Yang successfully counterattacked and rushed into the penalty area. Facing the goalkeeper Weidenfeller who was attacking, he didn't stop the ball and shot directly. The ball passed over Weidenfeller's head and crashed into the goal again, two-to-one!

Real Madrid once again surpassed the score!

...

Entering the break with a 2-1 lead, Ancelotti affirmed the team's performance in the first half, but also pointed out some problems that the team had, especially defense.

After the second half of the game changed sides, the pace of the game was still very fast.

This is obviously the most familiar rhythm Dortmund has, but Real Madrid is also not unfamiliar with it.

Not long after the opening, Lewandowski and Yang Yang were offside one after another, especially Yang Yang, who fell into the offside trap twice.

Both sides played very unrestrainedly, fighting back and forth, but their defenses were targeted, so they did not score a single goal in the first twenty minutes of the second half.

Until the 68th minute, Dortmund made a cross from the side and sent it to the penalty area. Casillas decisively abandoned the goal and hit the ball with both hands, but the ball fell to the front of the penalty area. Schmelzer followed up and volleyed, hitting Pepe's intercepted foot, bounced in one direction, and hitting Real Madrid's goal.

Although Casillas made a save, he failed to stop such a sudden change of direction.

Two to two, the two sides returned to the draw again.

But just five minutes after Dortmund equalized the score, before the Hornets had time to take it back, Real Madrid once again intercepted the ball in the midfield and launched a quick attack.

On the right, Di Maria got the ball and tried to force her to break through to the bottom line, but failed. She was forced to stop urgently and turned around and lead back. She crossed the ball to the penalty area with her left foot. She was headed by Dortmund central defender Subotic and rushed out of the penalty area.

In this game, Azpilicueta, who was not showing any signs of water, suddenly appeared on the left side of the front of the penalty area. Facing the ball cleared by Subotic, he jumped high again and headed back into the penalty area.

This sudden change made the penalty area chaotic. Yang Yang reacted the fastest, took the lead, and used his forehead to the left side of the goal. The ball also hit the inside of the left post, rebounding and hitting Dortmund's goal.

Three to two!

Real Madrid once again surpassed the score!

"goallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll!!!!"

"Yang Yang!"

"At the critical moment, it's Yang Yang again, three to two!"

"He led Real Madrid out of the Devil's home court!"

Yang Yang rushed towards Azpilicueta first and directly pulled the Spanish defender to celebrate this timely goal.
Chapter completed!
