Midfielder Ruler

Tang Zheng used his hand to push the ball forward comfortably. As he was running, he adjusted his steps and raised his left foot to kick the slowly falling football.

Yan Junling abandoned the goal and attacked. Royce, who was following Tang Zheng, had no choice but to reach out and pull the jersey back.

For a moment, Tang Zheng's upper body leaned back and his center of gravity fell backwards.

But out of instinct, Tang Zheng still kicked the football with his left foot, but there was a subtle change in the part where it touched the ball.

Originally, Tang Zheng was going to hit the ball with the instep of his left foot, but Royce pulled him so that the ball-touching part became the inside of the instep, so the ball flew up unexpectedly, and the ball flew up in a weird parabola.

Yan Junling subconsciously jumped on the spot because the distance was too close. His jumping speed was half a beat slower than the flying speed of the football. The football flew over the fingertips of Yan Junling's raised right arm and flew towards the unguarded goal behind him...

Behind the goal is the south stand of the Westfalen Stadium, which is the area where the die-hard Dortmund fans are. They were all stunned when they watched the football chasing the far end of the goal.

It's not that I have any mixed emotions about Tang Zheng's goal at the Westfalenstadion, but the way he scored the goal made people very speechless.

Royce looked at the football lying in the net with his hands on his hips, his mouth pursed, and his face looked helpless.

Yan Junling sat on the ground and kept shaking his head.

Klopp's expression in front of the home team's coaching bench was complicated. He and his assistant Buvac looked at each other, and both saw a hint of helplessness in the other's eyes.

At the other end, Ancelotti was relieved in front of the visiting team's coach's bench. He was under tremendous pressure and made a rare and exciting shout.

The Real Madrid substitute players in front of the bench jumped up. Tang Zheng's way of scoring was a bit strange, but it was of great significance because this goal tied the total score of the two sides and the away goals were also tied. That is to say If the game ends according to the current score, it will enter overtime.

However, the game is not over yet. Real Madrid as a guest still has time to score more goals. Once Real Madrid scores another goal, overtime will cease to exist.

The fanatical atmosphere at the Westfalen Stadium has dropped significantly. The home fans were caught off guard by Dortmund's sudden loss of the ball, or in other words, the way Tang Zheng scored made them speechless.

Dortmund can accept Tang Zheng's various goals, but this unintentional way of scoring is somewhat of a blow to the momentum. In addition, Real Madrid controls the rhythm of the game. The home fans don't know whether the team can win. Maintain the existing score in the next game time.

At the same time, Tang Zheng, who scored the goal, was also at a loss as he sat on the ground, letting teammates such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Benzema press on him as they reacted.

It wasn't until the end of the goal celebration that he followed Cristiano Ronaldo's outstretched right hand and stood up, raising his hands above his head, just like he did when he scored the Dortmund goal for Real Madrid at the Bernabeu Stadium in the first round, with an apologetic look on his face, and addressed the home fans Wave and apologize.

The home fans had mixed feelings. A season ago, Tang Zheng was still wearing a yellow and black jersey to represent Dortmund in the Champions League. It was unexpected that things would change in less than a season.

Tang Zheng, wearing a white jersey, once again kicked the ball into the Dortmund goal. From the perspective of promotion, Tang Zheng's goal is likely to cause Dortmund to be eliminated from the top four of the Champions League this season.

However, Dortmund fans did not show their dissatisfaction with Tang Zheng, nor did they boo Tang Zheng because the promotion situation became confusing. Instead, they responded with applause.

Thunderous applause filled the sky, and Tang Zheng's mood became more complicated. He knew that his goal would probably cause his old club to be eliminated, so his expression looked more like someone who had lost the ball.

※※※

The close-up shot of the on-site director showed Tang Zheng, and CC5 commentator He Wei's tone returned from excitement to normal: Tang Zheng scored again, helping Real Madrid get a goal back, and the total score became 3:3. This pair of Tang Zheng It should have been a happy thing, but his goal may have led to the elimination of his former club and defending champion Dortmund. Four years have passed in a blink of an eye, and this stadium is a witness to his growth...

Tang Zheng's complex emotions were even more complicated than those in the first round, because the first round was at home and there were relatively few Dortmund fans. In the second round, they were a guest at the Westfalenstadion, and almost the entire stadium was occupied by Dortmund fans.

The home fans gave thunderous applause. Not only did Tang Zheng not feel better, but he blamed himself more and more.

Cristiano Ronaldo, who once ruined Manchester United's Champions League journey at Old Trafford, understood Tang Zheng's mood very well, so he patted Tang Zheng on the shoulder and comforted: I believe that even if Dortmund is eliminated in the end, Dortmund fans I won’t bear any grudge against you, as you Chinese say, ‘The winner is the king and the loser is the enemy’, ‘Winning or losing is a matter of military strategist’, right?”

Tang Zheng didn't think about where Cristiano Ronaldo learned Chinese, because he was in a very heavy mood now and had no extra thoughts. He just nodded lightly to express his understanding.

Real Madrid equalized the total score, and Dortmund coach Klopp was confused. He didn't know whether to continue to defend or strengthen the offense.

It will definitely not work to continue to defend, but the problems exposed by the defense after strengthening the offense will be infinitely magnified over time.

damn it!

Klopp began to regret not continuing to strengthen his offense at the beginning of the second half.

Real Madrid's morale will definitely be boosted now that they get an away goal, and Tang Zheng's performance is as stable as ever. It will definitely be difficult for a strong attack to be effective.

what can we do about it?

The game restarted, and Dortmund, who had a kick-off advantage, was as confused as head coach Simeone, not knowing how to play.

In this case, the lack of a qualified soul player on the field is particularly important.

German Sky commentator Marcel Leif saw this and shook his head: Ilkay Gundogan has excellent abilities and potential, but he is not a leader like Don who can lead the team with his actions. Players, Sebastian Kehl is solid defensively and does not help much in attack, Mario Gotze improved slowly in the season when Don left and is not enough to take on a big role, Marco Reus and Robert Lewandowski Dovsky feels a little lonely...

As the game time went by, Tang Zheng gradually came out of his heavy heart.

1:2 in the away game is not enough for Real Madrid to qualify. They must score another goal in the remaining game time!

Once the score becomes 2:2, Dortmund, who is eager to advance to the semi-finals, must win by two goals to qualify!

Ouch-ouch——

The fanatical atmosphere at the Westfalenstadion has returned to its peak state. It is obvious that the home fans are very optimistic and full of confidence in the team's future prospects.

In fact, is it really so?

In fact, a large number of Dortmund fans just want to divert their attention and force themselves to stop thinking about Tang Zheng helping Real Madrid equalize the score and reverse the total score...

※※※

Real Madrid's offensive was very fierce after scoring the goal, especially with Tang Zheng actively participating in the attack, which was enough to threaten Yan Junling's shot at the goal no less than three times.

Klopp had no choice. Captain Kyle's performance in this high-intensity game declined significantly as time went by. His defense against Tang Zheng became increasingly inadequate, so the first adjustment in the game was made in the middle. Defense.

Sven Bender replaced captain Kyle and kept the area in front of the central defender safe.

In other words, keep paying attention to Tang Zheng.

In the past training in the Dortmund team, Klopp put Sven Bender on the opposite side in order to hone his midfield defensive ability. Therefore, Sven Bender is no stranger to defending Tang Zheng in the game.

The only thing that made Sven Bender uneasy was that Tang Zheng's rhythm changed so drastically that it was impossible to guess whether he was shooting or passing.

Coaches and defensive players who have studied Tang Zheng specifically know that the scariest thing about Tang Zheng is not his shooting and passing, but his changes in rhythm.

Facing Tang Zheng, Sven Bender was always very careful and did not dare to make a move easily.

However, Tang Zheng had no intention of challenging Sven Bender, he just kicked the football out.

Suddenly, Sven Bender let out a long breath.

But before Sven Bender could take a breath, the football returned to Tang Zheng's feet, and he had to face him.

This time Tang Zheng did not pass the ball out again, but used Modric's forward butterfly to briefly break through the space.

Sven Bender's throat squirmed. At the same time, Tang Zheng suddenly swayed his upper body weight to the left, then dunked the ball forward to the right with the inside of his left foot, accelerating!

Sven Bender subconsciously stepped forward with his right foot and stretched out his left foot to try to reach the ball. Tang Zheng stepped on the football with his long right leg, pulled it back, and seamlessly moved the ball to the left with the outer instep of his left foot. dial.

Sven Bender, who had already made a defensive move, had no choice but to stretch out his foot to trip Tang Zheng while his center of gravity had shifted early.

The next moment, referee Clattenburg's whistle sounded: Beep~

Sven Bender, who committed the foul, did not express his innocence to the referee Clattenburg. Instead, he reached out to pull up Tang Zheng, who was lying on the ground, and said helplessly: Can't you use less of these deceptive fake moves?

Perhaps Clattenberg thought that Sven Bender had a good attitude and did not give a yellow card. He just gave Real Madrid a direct free kick about 35 meters away from the goal. The position was slightly to the right, which is more suitable for the left foot.

Of course, the same goes for the right foot.

The foul was committed far enough away from the goal, but Dortmund coach Klopp still frowned.

The broadcast screen was focused on Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo. Both of them could try this position, so they stood together with their mouths covered to discuss who would play.

After a brief exchange, Cristiano Ronaldo and Tang Zheng nodded lightly to each other, but neither one walked away.

Tang Zheng stood on the right side of the football, and Cristiano Ronaldo stood on the left side of the football.

According to the analysis of the information given in the broadcast screen, this ball is likely to be kicked by Cristiano Ronaldo.

However, no matter who took the penalty, Yan Junling did not dare to neglect and formed a four-man wall.

Beep~

Uuuuuu——

As referee Clattenberg blew his whistle, huge boos rang out over the Westphalia Stadium. The home fans hoped to use this method to interfere with Cristiano Ronaldo, who was taking the free kick.

At the same time, Cristiano Ronaldo started in a compass stance.

What's interesting is that Tang Zheng, who was standing on the right side of the football, also started to run.

Who on earth is it?

Goalkeeper Yan Junling's mind was racing at high speed, trying to guess who was taking the penalty.

From a superficial point of view, it is likely to be Cristiano Ronaldo, but Yan Junling always feels that Tang Zheng, who has relatively balanced left and right foot abilities, may also take the penalty.

as expected!

Central 5 commentator He Wei suddenly exclaimed: Cristiano Ronaldo stopped! Could it be -

When Cristiano Ronaldo took two steps to approach, he suddenly paused on the spot. However, Tang Zheng, who was approaching on the right side of the football, did not stop. His last step was a little too big, and he stepped about 30 centimeters to the right side of the football. His left foot was like The whip strikes the lower midsection of the football.

——Tang Zheng!!

He Wei's voice suddenly changed and he shouted.

Yan Junling, who was standing in the far corner of the goal, was tiptoeing back and forth with his feet. When he saw Tang Zheng hit the football with his left foot, his center of gravity tilted to the left and moved towards the near corner.

But as soon as Yan Junling took the second step, his pupils shrank suddenly and his whole body's center of gravity froze.

Because... the football kicked by Tang Zheng with his left foot did not fly to the far corner of the goal as usual, but... to the near corner!

The free kick kicked by Tang Zheng with his left foot has a wider arc than the free kick kicked with his right foot. When the speed of the ball remains unchanged, there is an obvious and strange arc turning outward.

Even though Yan Junling turned his body back immediately, the power he could use was really limited. This meant that he didn't have enough strength to push off the ground, and his body's height in the air was severely limited.

Oh oh oh——

Deafening exclamations sounded above the south stands of Westfalenstadion.

The die-hard Dortmund fans have a very good view and can see the football flying towards the upper right corner of the goal in their field of vision, which is the upper left corner directly opposite the goal.

Yan Junling tried his best, gritted his teeth and straightened his waist and abdomen, intending to stretch his right hand longer.

Indeed, the tip of Yan Junling's right middle finger did touch the football, but before he could use his strength to move the football, the football had already passed by the tip of his right middle finger at high speed, then crossed the space above the goal line and hit the snow. White net.

Goooooooooooooooal——

When the fanatical atmosphere at Westfalenstadion reached freezing point, British Sky commentator Andy Gray's passionate and drawn-out voice sounded.

Commentator Martin Taylor added: Incredible! Tang scored twice in five minutes! Now the score becomes 2:2! Real Madrid overtakes Dortmund with a total score of 4:3!

The Real Madrid fans who came with the team were as excited as children, dancing uncontrollably.

Tang Zheng, who scored the goal, raised his arms high and apologized to the Dortmund fans at the Westfalenstadion just like he did at five minutes.

Central 5 commentator He Wei said emotionally: I think Tang Zheng must be in a very uncomfortable mood at this time. He has stabbed his beloved team one knife after another. If nothing goes wrong, Dortmund's elimination will be done by Tang Zheng himself. …”
