Chapter 100 The Role of Staying
The level of broadcasting in the Bundesliga has always been very high. The broadcast director can always quickly find scenes worth showing and then broadcast them in a timely manner to generate new topics.
This time, when Zhou Yi actively asked not to be substituted on the court, this scene was keenly captured by the camera lens.
So through the TV broadcast, everyone saw Zhou Yi's action of raising his hands and crossing them.
"Is Zhou Yi... asking not to be replaced in advance?" Duan Xin guessed.
"After Yang Muge pulled a goal back for Schalke 04, Zhou Yi also made a decision - he decided to stay on the court! Will Klopp meet his request?" Marcel Leif took the lead I guessed what Zhou Yi meant.
Along with his question, the TV broadcast gave another shot to Dortmund's bench.
So everyone saw Mkhitaryan returning to the bench and sitting down...
"Klopp made a decision! He did not replace Zhou Yi in advance!" Marcel Leif exclaimed.
Duan Xin had mixed emotions. Of course he was happy that Zhou Yi could stay on the court for a longer period of time, but he was worried that if Zhou Yi stayed in the fierce Ruhr derby, it would increase the possibility of him getting injured...
"...It seems that Yang Muge's goal pushed Dortmund to a very nervous point..." was all he could say in the end.
In any case, another Chinese player scored a goal in the Ruderby, which is still something to be happy about...
Fans online are also discussing Klopp's decision.
"Zhou Yi is not going to end the game? That's great!"
"What's good? This is the Ruhr derby! The most popular derby in Germany,
What if Zhou Yi gets injured again? I don’t care if Dortmund can win, I just hope Zhou Yi doesn’t get injured again..."
"Zhou Yi took the initiative not to be substituted. Obviously he also realized the seriousness of the situation. This is a Ruderby and no one wants to desert!"
"Yang Muge's goal came at the wrong time... It would be great if he waited until Zhou Yi came off the field before scoring..."
…
The vast majority of fans are still very sensible and are worried about Zhou Yi, fearing that he will be injured again.
※※※
Keller also saw Zhou Yi's gesture, and then he saw Mkhitaryan return to the bench. Zhou Yi is not done yet!
Of course he hopes that Zhou Yi will come off the field, but he is not too worried if Zhou Yi does not come off the field. He thinks that since Klopp plans to replace Zhou Yi in advance, it means that Zhou Yi will not be able to play the whole game, although now he is forced to stay. It's hard to say how much he can perform on the court.
So Keller is not very worried about Zhou Yi. He is very excited now. Yang Muge's goal helped the team narrow the score gap to one goal. As for the game, there is still more than half an hour. It takes such a long time not to mention equalizing the score. , even if it is a reversal, it will be no problem!
※※※
The game restarted, Zhou Yi stayed on the court as expected, and Dortmund did not make any substitution adjustments.
When the ball was dead, Yang Muge came up. He covered his mouth and asked Zhou Yi: "Aren't you going to end the game, Zhou Yi?"
"Are you kidding me? You've made such a big splash, but you don't allow me to make one too?" Zhou Yi covered his mouth and laughed.
The reason why both of them covered their mouths when speaking was because they didn’t want their mouth shapes to be captured by the camera. When the media invites a lip reader, it will be clear what the two of them said on the court - at first. This is not how players talk on the court. They can say whatever they want. There are no microphones on the court anyway, so others can't hear it. But later, after TV stations hired lip readers to interpret their words, the players discovered that it was not safe even without a microphone.
So now everyone has to cover their mouths if they want to speak. In this way, the media is helpless.
The conversation between Zhou Yi and Yang Muge was actually nothing shameful, but covering their mouths before speaking on the field was purely out of habit.
"We will definitely win this time, Zhou Yi!" Yang Muge expressed confidence in Zhou Yi. He had just scored his first goal in the Ruderby, and Yang Muge was full of confidence.
"Then we'll see, Lao Yang!" Zhou Yi shrugged with a smile.
The football was handed out, and two people, one on the left and one on the right, ran away.
One is yellow and black, the other is blue and white, clearly distinguishable.

"Jurgen..." Assistant coach Buvac came to Klopp. He wanted to talk to Klopp about Zhou Yi.
Of course Klopp knew what he was going to do, so he said first: "It's not even sixty minutes yet, Zeljko. I've thought about it, I'll let him play until seventy minutes. If there's still no improvement, I'm sure It doesn’t matter if I replace him, even if I lose the game because of it.”
Buvac nodded silently.
Compared with losing a game, if Zhou Yi's injury worsens, that would be the most terrifying thing.
Especially after seeing Zhou Yi come back, Dortmund's performance in this game further proved Zhou Yi's importance to this team.
Yang Muge's goal occurred in the 56th minute of the game. Klopp planned to replace Zhou Yi in the 70th minute, which meant that he only gave Zhou Yi 14 minutes.
He doesn't care what method Zhou Yi uses, it's just these fourteen minutes.
※※※
Zhou Yi didn't know that Klopp only gave him 14 minutes of playing time. He was very focused on looking for opportunities on the court.
But first...he had to deal with Neustadt, who was becoming more and more rough in his movements.
Yang Muge's goal was like a shot of stimulant, making every Schalke 04 player full of confidence in winning the derby.
Neustadt was naturally encouraged. He knew what Zhou Yi was doing by asking to stay on the court, but he would not let Zhou Yi succeed easily.
He had already asked Zhou Yi to instigate two goals before. As the saying goes, "Things can only be done three times", there cannot be a third time anyway.
Now that Zhou Yi remains on the court, he still has a chance to wash away his shame.
He was gearing up and wanted to let Zhou Yi know how powerful he was.
But the actual situation was different from what he imagined...
"Beep——!"
The referee Kihir's harsh whistle was accompanied by boos from the Schalke Stadium.
Neustadter raised his hands to show his innocence.
But the yellow card in Kihir’s hand didn’t seem to think so…
"In just three minutes, Neustadt has already fouled Zhou Yi twice, each time more serious than the last! This time, he knocked Zhou Yi down directly from the side and behind! If Kihir doesn't play again, then There is every reason to doubt his impartiality!" Duan Xin said in a serious tone.
On the ground next to Neustadt, Zhou Yi was curled up with his calves in his arms, not yet getting up.
His appearance made many Chinese fans worried, fearing that Zhou Yi would be injured again.
Fortunately, he was quickly picked up by his Dortmund teammates, so he should be fine...
Zhou Jianliang yelled in front of the TV: "Only give me a yellow card! How damn black! The German black whistle deserves its reputation! This should be a red card! Just get out!"
Some fans also expressed concern online: "This is why I am worried about Zhou Yi continuing to stay on the court. Obviously, he has become the target of some Schalke 04 players, and they will not show mercy. Playing like this Go down, I'm really afraid that Zhou Yi will be carried down on a stretcher again..."
※※※
Although Neustadt defended his foul in every possible way, it failed to stop Kihir from issuing him a yellow card.
Well now, he already has a yellow card on his back. In the next game, if he gets another yellow card, he will be sent off.
So although Neustadt was very unhappy with Zhou Yi and thought Zhou Yi must have dived - this is a Ruhr derby, how could there be no physical contact? Not to mention physical contact, even if it is a foul, it is normal, why should you give yourself a yellow card? Wasn't it because of the Zhou Yi that he fell so exaggeratedly that he could have competed for the Oscar statuette!
Although he was dissatisfied with Zhou Yi in his heart, Neustetter had to be cautious when defending Zhou Yi, for fear that the opponent would take advantage of him again.
Once he was burdened with psychological baggage, Neustadt's actions seemed hesitant and less straightforward...
※※※
In the 62nd minute, Dortmund launched an attack. Royce picked up the ball near the center line and then drove the ball all the way to Schalke 04's 30-meter area.
His dribbling was over at this point. Facing the two Schalke 04 players in front of him, his chances of a successful breakthrough were slim.
Royce slowed down, even stopped.
Then he saw Zhou Yi in the middle. He decided to pass the football and let Zhou Yi decide what to do.
When receiving the ball at that position, the opponent does not dare to foul easily, because once a foul is committed, Dortmund will be given a very well-positioned free kick. In a duel of this level, any free kick in a dangerous position should be avoided as much as possible.
Therefore, Royce passing the football to Zhou Yi will not bring much danger to Zhou Yi.
really.
When Zhou Yi caught the ball at the front of the penalty area, he took a step across and blocked Neustadt behind him.
And Neustadt had already stretched out his foot at the beginning, wanting to destroy the football, but with such a leap by Zhou Yi, Neustadt's foot did not completely poke out, because even if he could poke the football away, there was still a possibility. It is equally or even more likely to tackle Zhou Yi - this is a tackle from behind. Regardless of whether he touches the ball first, as long as he knocks down someone, according to the spirit of FIFA rules, he must be the last One less yellow card!
And he already has a yellow card on him. If he gets another one, two yellow cards will turn into one red card, and he will be finished!
He didn't dare to take the risk, so he stopped his feet and just pushed Zhou Yi with his body.
But this hesitant head was not a threat to Zhou Yi. He was just jumped from behind by Neustadt, but he still controlled the football.
At the same time, he also used this jump to temporarily get rid of Neustadt.
At this time, he was already at the top of the penalty arc. In front of him were Mark, Aubameyang and Royce who were actively running.
The three of them appeared in the penalty area of Schalke 04 at the same time, which made the defenders of Schalke 04 dare not act rashly. If anyone came to intercept Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi could penetrate the defense with a straight pass and throw the football away. Pass behind them...
They also dare not take this risk.
At this time, only Yang Muge rushed towards Zhou Yi.
As long as Zhou Yi makes more adjustments, he can stick to Zhou Yi...
But Zhou Yi didn't adjust. As soon as he got rid of Neustadt's pressing behind him, he raised his right foot and shot a long shot!
The inside of his right foot hit the football, causing the football to draw a very obvious arc in the air, bypassing the crowd in the penalty area, and also bypassing Hildebrand's fingers, and then Brushing the right goal post, it flew into the goal!
The moment the football flew into the goal, Yang Muge rushed to Zhou Yi, but it was too late...
