King of the Zone

Indeed, as some commentators have said, the real intense competition has just begun.

Cheng Hai and his teammates celebrated for less than 30 seconds, but Barcelona complained that the celebration took too long, and the referee intervened to end the celebration.

It can be seen that the anxious mentality of the Barcelona players.

Guardiola couldn't calm down anymore, and had to give an order for a general attack.

Two goals behind, on the stage of the Champions League final, if you don't attack, you will die.

After the game restarted, Barcelona's passing speed suddenly accelerated, and the pace of both passing and breakthroughs accelerated a lot.

Even with Cheng Hai assisting in the defense, Dortmund's defense is a bit precarious.

Because Barcelona's pass and cut moves are too skilled and tacit.

That alone is not enough. If it is just the proficiency of this kind of pass and cut coordination, Cheng Hai's unstinting physical interference to press and sweep, coupled with the defensive cooperation of other Dortmund players, there is still a high probability that Barcelona's pass and control can be stopped.

But the reason why Barcelona became the Cosmos team, in addition to the collective pass and control cooperation, there is Messi as an assaulter.

Like Cheng Hai, he is a sharp knife that breaks the balance.

After Cheng Haimei scored twice, Barcelona launched two attacks to the frontcourt, but they all failed in the end, failing to break into the penalty area and form a shot.

However, Barcelona's counterattack ability is also top-notch. They did not let Dortmund's counterattack start, and they grabbed the ball back in the midfield and launched an attack again.

Finally, in the 75th minute, Barcelona's frenzied attack paid off.

In fact, this time it was equivalent to Dortmund being hit back, because Dortmund had already scored in Barcelona's half after getting the ball.

As a result, the ball Cheng Hai passed to Mario Gotze was a little bit bigger by Gotze, and then was stabbed away by Alves with a flying shovel.

Barcelona launched a counterattack in an instant, and even Cheng Hai didn't have time to get back in place, and the ball was sent to Messi's feet on the right side of the front court by Harvey's precise long kick.

Messi took the ball and faced the defense of Schmelzer and Subotic. Instead of passing the ball, he chose to go it alone.

Then, everyone saw a wonderful scene: Messi broke through the double-teaming of Schmelzer and Subotic through continuous shaking, smashing, pulling the ball, Matthews fake moves, etc., and entered the penalty area.

After entering the penalty area, Schmelzer and Subotic, who were left behind by Messi, didn't even dare to foul, because they might face the death penalty of yellow card + penalty kick.

Hummels, who followed Sanchez closely in the middle, did not expect that neither Schmelzer nor Subotic could stop Messi. When he wanted to rush to make up for it, it was too late.

Messi, who dribbled the ball into the penalty area, glanced at Weidenfeller, who rushed to the near corner, and hit a reverse far corner with his left foot.

Weidenfeller, who threw his center of gravity towards the near corner, couldn't catch up, and could only watch the ball fly into the goal from behind him.

In the 75th minute, Barcelona finally relied on the assist of pass master Harvey and Messi's personal performance to score, and tied the score to 1-2, only one goal behind.

Immediately, the Barcelona fans on the scene and in front of the TV cheered and screamed excitedly, and Messi on the field also vented and celebrated fiercely with his teammates.

However, they were still behind in the score, and they didn't celebrate for too long, and they consciously returned to their own half, allowing Dortmund to open the ball.

After being scored by Barcelona and narrowing the score to only one goal, the Dortmund generals suddenly became nervous.

A one-goal lead is the most unsafe score on the football field, because the leading side will be at a loss and be at a loss, while the trailing side can boost their morale and launch a mad attack at any time, which may tie the score at any time.

Once the team leading by one goal is not unified, some want to stabilize the defense, and some want to launch an attack immediately to expand the lead, then it may be used by the opponent to score consecutive goals, equalize, or even reverse the score.

At this time, Klopp, as the head coach, made a wise decision.

He immediately replaced Lewandowski with a full-time midfielder Bender and played a double defensive midfielder.He replaced Gotze with Owomoyela, who was not as aggressive as Gotze but had a much better defensive ability than Gotze.

Then, let Shinji Kagawa, Owomoyela, and Gundogan all return to defense across the board to stabilize the defense.

Cheng Hai stepped up to the front line and became a lone forward, deterring Barcelona's defense, preventing them from attacking aggressively and maintaining a certain counterattack ability.

In this way, with Cheng Hai able to contain at least two or three defensive players in Barcelona, ​​Dortmund's defense has a numerical advantage.

In the situation where the numbers are superior, and tactics are adopted to shrink back to the defense and put up the bus for defense, even Messi has nothing to do with Dortmund's defense.

Because there are too many people.

You break through one, and the second immediately makes it up.Breaking through the second, the third immediately filled the loophole.Even if you break through the third one again, the first one you just broke through may rush back and get back in place.

In short, no matter how Barcelona attacks, whether it is pass scheduling or the personal breakthroughs of Messi, Sanchez and others, they have failed to score.

The shots were of course occasional shots, but they all missed the goal, and none of them hit the goal frame.

Fortunately, what makes the Barcelona people a little bit hopeful is that Dortmund has not yet scored a counterattack goal, and the score is still maintained at 1-2. They are still only one goal behind.

As long as the game is not over and the referee has not blown his whistle, they have the hope of scoring an absolute goal and dragging the game into overtime.

But as the game time passed and the end of the 90-minute regular game was getting closer and closer, the Barcelona players had to become more and more anxious, and even the two full-backs crossed the center line to participate in the attack.

Cheng Hai was also a little nervous, afraid that his teammates' defenses would not be able to withstand it.

Fortunately, Klopp's tactical arrangement is very appropriate. Although Dortmund's defense seems a bit precarious under the attack of Barcelona led by Messi, it has never been scored by Barcelona.

In the 87th minute, Guardiola removed the defensive midfielder Mascherano and replaced striker Pedro to make a final effort.

However, although Pedro's playing strengthened Barcelona's offense, it still failed to be the last straw that broke the camel's back and helped Barcelona score.

Instead, in the 91st minute, after the game entered stoppage time, Dortmund suddenly got an excellent counterattack opportunity.

That was when Cesc Fabregas was about to pass the ball to Messi. Hummels, who suddenly robbed him, forced him to panic and made a pass error.

Owomoyela, who happened to be near the ball path, made a reflexive flying tackle and intercepted the ball that Fabregas was about to pass to Messi.

Then, without waiting for Messi to fight back, Owomoyela, who was lying on the ground, immediately made a pass and swept the ball to Gundogan nearby!
The positions of Puyol and Pique are very experienced, and they did not give Cheng Hai a chance to turn offside.

Therefore, Cheng Hai did not grab the ball, but ran out of a gap on the left side of the center circle by running without the ball when Owomoyela tackled the ball.

Jing Duoan glanced at Cheng Hai's position after taking the ball, and immediately kicked the ball towards the midfield.

Gundogan's pass was very precise, and it happened to land near Cheng Hai.Cheng Hai immediately judged the landing point, occupied the position, and stuck Puyol, who was forced to fight for the top after seeing Gundogan's pass, behind him.

No matter how Puyol pushed and rammed, Cheng Hai's full physique and balance made him immobile, firmly occupying the landing point.

Then, with Puyol stuck behind and unable to grab the ball, Cheng Hai stopped Gundogan's big-footed air ball on the left side of the center circle.

His full-value stopping technique made this foot stop look like a light weight. When he stopped, he didn't even jump, and was stopped by Cheng Hai on the ground.

However, now Cheng Hai's back is facing the attacking direction, and nearby Harvey, Iniesta, Busquets, Alves and others are desperately returning to defense.

As long as Cheng Hai is held back by Puyol for a second or two, he may have to face the entire defense line of Barcelona, ​​which has already returned to the defense.

Just as everyone watched Cheng Hai being entangled by Puyol, he couldn't turn around even though he dropped the ball.

Puyol, who was behind him, couldn't see the ball, but only saw Cheng Hai turning to the right, and subconsciously shifted his center of gravity to the right, preparing to block Cheng Hai's breakthrough.

Unexpectedly, in the process of turning around, Cheng Hai used the arch of his right foot to hook the ball behind the heel of his left foot, taking advantage of the opportunity to complete most of the turn.

The ball was hooked to the left by Cheng Hai from behind the heel of Cheng Hai's left foot, but Puyol's defensive center of gravity was deceived by Cheng Hai and jumped to the right.

Cruyff turned around!

Cheng Hai used his full-scale perfect skill at this critical moment: Cruyff turned around.

Puyol was duped.

With his back to the attacking direction, Cheng Hai not only used Cruyff to turn around and break through Puyol's close defense, but also took advantage of the opportunity to complete the turn and pass Puyol, so that Puyol didn't even have time to foul. He took the ball into the Barcelona half and rushed towards the Barcelona penalty area.

Not only Puyol, but also Harvey, Iniesta, Alves, Butzkes, who are about to approach the center line, have been left behind by Cheng Hai, and they have not yet been able to approach Cheng Hai.

At this time, only the last central defender Pique was standing in front of Cheng Hai.

Pique didn't dare to go up, fearing that he would be broken through at once, so he could only retreat while blocking Cheng Hai's advancing route, hoping to slow down Cheng Hai's attack speed and buy time for his teammates who returned to defense.

But Cheng Hai naturally also knew that the Barcelona players behind him were crazily returning to defense. As long as he was held back by Pique for a moment, he would lose the good opportunity to score a single goal.

Therefore, Cheng Hai, who was sprinting with the ball, did not slow down at all. He met Pique, who was stuck in position and retreated at the same time, at a place about 20 meters away from the Barcelona penalty area.

Pique showed a firm look on his face, and he had already made a decision in his heart to stop Cheng Hai even if he made a foul.

Although Cheng Hai's free kick is also threatening, it is always lower than Cheng Hai's single-handed kick.

As a result, when Pique was thinking this way, Cheng Hai, who was advancing at high speed with the ball, had already made a fake move of pedaling a bicycle.

Pique followed subconsciously and repeatedly moved two steps before losing his center of gravity and about to fall.

In order not to be caught up by Harvey and others behind him, Cheng Hai dribbled the ball very fast.Then, the pedaling feint he made with his full perfection skills as he advanced was very deceptive.

As a top defender, Pique sometimes couldn't control his body's subconscious reaction, so he was tricked so that the center of gravity of his body swayed back and forth following Cheng Hai's fake movements, and finally he couldn't hold on and was about to fall down.

Pique's expression changed.

He knew that once he fell to the ground and let Cheng Hai successfully break through, Cheng Hai, who went to the meeting alone, would be able to hit the ball ninety-nine percent of the time.

At that time, Barcelona will be two goals behind Dortmund.By this time, it was already injury time.

Once behind the opponent by two goals, the game can be declared completely over, and Barcelona has no hope of even a little comeback.

Therefore, before falling down, Pique resolutely stretched out his right foot, hanging on Cheng Hai's right ankle that was about to break through, trying to hook Cheng Hai down.

Even if this is an obvious foul, it will be punished.Even destroying a single-handed ball may cause a red card.

But Pique no longer cared so much.

He had to stop Cheng Hai's breakthrough.

He almost made it.

During the high-speed breakthrough, his right foot was suddenly hooked by the opponent who was about to fall to the ground. Cheng Hai was naturally greatly affected, and he almost fell to the ground.

The referee put the whistle in his mouth. Once Cheng Hai fell to the ground, he would blow the whistle to call Pique a foul.

However, the idea of ​​wanting to score goals and kill the game, coupled with his own balance ability of 20 full points, made Cheng Hai not admit defeat when he fell to the ground, but stood up with his hands on the ground, even crawling and running.

Although there was a delay, when Cheng Hai caught up with the ball again, Iniesta, who returned to the defense the fastest, had rushed to the same position as Cheng Hai.

But Cheng Hai, who had already stood up, with his strong physique and balance, opened his arms and stuck Iniesta firmly at his side. He couldn't reach the ball at all, so he could only follow Cheng Hai to the penalty area in despair.

It sounds slow, but it is actually very fast.

In the process of dribbling the ball towards the penalty area, Cheng Hai slightly changed his direction a few times, and briefly threw Iniesta away from the top of the penalty area.

Even though Iniesta was also determined to throw a flying shovel from the side and rear, he wanted to fight for a foul, but he also wanted to stop Cheng Hai's shot.

But Cheng Hai's shot was faster than Iniesta's shovel.

After Cheng Hai faced the attacking goalkeeper Valdez and kicked the ball out, Iniesta's flying shovel was in place and shoveled Cheng Hai on the line of the penalty area.

But Iniesta's flying shovel was too late.

The ball had gone over Valdez's head and landed in Barcelona's goal before returning full speed to try to save Alves on the line.

In the 91st minute of stoppage time, Cheng Hai scored a hat-trick to help Dortmund take a 3-1 lead.

This is the fifth hat-trick in the history of the Champions League final, the fourth person to perform a hat-trick in the Champions League final, and the first hat-trick in the history of the final after the restructuring of the Champions League.

At the same time, it was a goal that sealed the victory.

There are only two minutes left in the game, and Cheng Hai has to celebrate for a while, but the score is two goals behind. It is impossible for Barcelona to make a comeback, even if they have the successor of the world champion Messi.

Cheng Hai scored all Dortmund's three goals, with the first hat-trick in the history of the Champions League finals after the restructuring, completely defeated Barcelona led by Messi, and is about to win the Champions League this season.

Therefore, when the ball lobbed by Cheng Hai flew into the Barcelona goal, everyone in the commentary booth except the Spanish commentator shouted in the craziest voice:

"Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow

"Toooooooooooooooooooooooooor..."

"The ball went in!!!"

"Autumn is here!!!"

"The ball is in, it's in, it's in..."

"Cheng Hai scored again!"

"Cheng Hai scored his third goal of the game and scored a crazy hat-trick in the final!"

"This is the fifth hat-trick in the history of the Champions League. Cheng Hai is the fourth person to perform a hat-trick in the history of the Champions League final, and he is also the first superstar to perform a hat-trick in the final after the restructuring of the Champions League."

"There is no suspense!"

"Cheng Hai's hat-trick gave Dortmund a 3-1 lead over Barcelona with only 2 minutes left in the game."

"It is absolutely impossible for Barcelona to tie the score!"

"Dortmund is about to win this season's Champions League and become the first Bundesliga and the seventh great European team to win the Triple Crown!"

"Let's prepare to cheer for Dortmund and Cheng Hai!"

Yes!

This goal completely killed the game, everyone knew that Barcelona, ​​​​two goals behind, would not have any chance.

Cheng Hai's hat trick completely killed the game.

Therefore, when the ball flew into the goal, except for the commentator, all Dortmund players, fans, coaches, team doctors, and substitutes celebrated wildly.

Even Cheng Hai, who has a system and knows that he will not be short of the Champions League champion, can hardly restrain his excitement. He turned over excitedly, rushed all the way to the sidelines, jumped onto the billboard, stood on it with his strong balance ability, raised his hands, and made a celebration of dominating the world, which caused Dortmund fans and many neutral fans in the stands to scream at the same time.

Afterwards, the excited Dortmund fans shouted Cheng Hai's name to worship him, and at the same time made a Mexican wave in the stands, showing their inner enthusiasm and excitement.

On the other hand, the Barcelona players who witnessed Cheng Hai using Cruyff to turn around and step on a bicycle to form a single goal and send the ball into his own goal, completing the fifth hat-trick in the history of the Champions League final and the first hat-trick in the final after the restructuring of the Champions League, all lowered their heads and showed serious despair.

Even though the referee hadn't blown the final whistle, the score of 1-3 behind by two goals made even the most confident Barcelona players know that they had lost.
