Chapter 143: A Thunderous Blow
As the saying goes, one blow, then decline, three and exhaustion.
Taking advantage of the strength brought by the president, Shakhtar Donetsk came to bombard indiscriminately for more than ten minutes, making Dort's backline exhausted.
But people's physical strength is always limited, and morale cannot always be at full value.
After more than ten minutes, Shakhtar Donetsk's attack obviously began to weaken, because there were only three or four minutes left in the first half, and they felt that it would be okay to relax even if they slackened, and it would be enough to wait until the second half to continue the attack.
But this kind of thinking is obviously a common problem of people who don't know Dortmund, they think that Dortmund has been pressed for more than 40 minutes and has been pressed to the point that they have lost their temper, but how do they know how terrible this team is, as long as there is a slight opportunity, they will immediately launch a counterattack, and even completely suppress the opponent.
In the first 40 minutes, Lin Yu has been actively cooperating with the team's defense, and the midfield interception is very successful, which is one of the important reasons why Shakhtar Donetsk failed to score.
Of course, his teammates defended well and didn't make any obvious mistakes.
When Shakhtar Donetsk's players relaxed, Lin Yu was completely liberated, and he began to move forward, moving between the opposing backline and switching positions with Lewandowski, which made it difficult for Lucescu to enforce his defensive tactics.
Originally, everyone was staring at him, but he suddenly disappeared again, which made Donetsk's defenders very uncomfortable.
In the stands, Merkel was also attracted by the performance of this Chinese, she now really regrets what she just thought, this Chinese boy's performance is absolutely beautiful, but he has not been able to score a goal, but he can disturb the opponent's backline, which is already remarkable.
Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych apparently didn't notice this, he was still immersed in the joy of scoring a goal, and his focus was also on Shakhtar Donetsk's players, as for Lin Yu's performance, he was not interested in paying attention at all.
Shakhtar Donetsk striker Adriano burst forward with the ball in an attempt to create another threat, and the last goal was when he forced a breakthrough that caused fouls on Kyle and Santana to form a free-kick goal, and he wanted to repeat the same trick this time.
Even if the opponent doesn't foul, that's fine, then he can go straight in and shoot, and that kind of goal will be more exciting.
When Lin Yu saw Adriano, he wanted to catch up and intercept him, but suddenly found that the young midfielder Bender made a forward gesture at him.
Bender's gesture made Lin Yu stop.
He has always trusted his team-mates, even if Bender is just a player who is not well-known at the moment and can only play as a substitute at Borussia Dortmund.
If he doesn't even trust his teammates, he really doesn't know what to trust.
Lin Yu stopped and stood on the same line as the opponent's defender, which would be very beneficial to him against offside.
Bender did not disappoint Lin Yu, he successfully intercepted Adriano, shattering Adriano's dream of trying to repeat his old tricks.
After the break, Bender stuffed the ball into Gotze, which was recovered near the centre circle.
Gotze only looked up slightly after taking the ball, and then kicked the ball directly into the front court with a long pass.
His pass did not go to Lin Yu or Lewandowski, but chose to pass through and kicked directly behind the Shakhtar Donetsk backline.
Lewandowski and Lin Yu started at the same time.
But in terms of speed, Lin Yu had obviously gained the upper hand.
At that moment, the skill of the green fast horse was also activated at the same time, and he was like a whirlwind, blowing directly behind the enemy, and by the time the defenders of the Shakhtars of Donetsk wanted to drag him, it was too late.
There were exclamations from the stands, and the fans of Shakhtar Donetsk seemed to have forgotten about the boos, they were too nervous now.
They could only raise their hands and hope it was an offside goal.
But the linesman and the referee ignored it, they thought it was a good shot.
This is indeed a good goal, Lin Yu was not offside, he deceived the opponent's backline, and came to an anti-offside position beautifully.
But Götze's pass was a little bigger, and Shakhtar Donetsk's goalkeeper Pyatov also ran, hoping to kick the ball out before Lin Yu.
Because the ball was rolled towards Piatov, the odds of Piatov actually holding the ball were very high.
But the speed of the goalkeeper cannot be compared with most forwards, especially Lin Yu, who has activated the green fast horse skill and increased his speed by 75%, which can be said to be a gust of wind on the field.
When Pyatov saw that he was about to get the ball, he desperately pounced and pressed it under himself.
"Oh, it's a pity, Lin Yu doesn't have the ball at his feet, so the ball should have been saved by Pyatov...... No, it doesn't seem right! ”
But his face suddenly changed at this moment.
In fact, at this moment, only Lin Yu and Pyatov understood what was happening, as if it was a magic show.
It turned out that when he pounced on the ball, Lin Yu also killed at the same time, and when he was still in mid-air, Lin Yu had already pushed the ball on the ground aside.
Because this happened so fast, the cameras on the scene couldn't keep up, and the audience in front of the TV watched the picture of Pyatov saving the ball, and they didn't think that Pyatov was just air.
It wasn't until Lin Yu gently pushed the ball with his left foot and shot the ball into the goal that many disappointed Dortmund fans suddenly became ecstatic.
"What the hell is going on with this goal, let's see the replay!"
When the slow-motion replay, people finally saw what had just happened, Lin Yu went from grabbing the ball to shooting, completely in one go.
He snatched the ball out with his right foot and shot with his left foot, so when the camera showed him, there was no ball at his feet, which also caused the fans in front of the TV to misunderstand that the ball should be under Pyatov's body, and only the fans at the scene could clearly see what a beautiful thing happened in that electric scene.
"My God, I can't describe this goal in words, from Lin Yu's anti-offside position to his shot, this is a matter of more than ten seconds, his speed is terrible, he has become stronger again, when Linghu has the speed of a cheetah, it will really be desperate, Thunder! This is a real thunderbolt! ”
Pyatov was still lying on the ground, he couldn't believe his eyes, he didn't even want to believe that what had just happened was real.
Originally, he was so close to the ball that he could have defused this one-on-one crisis, but he failed, the reason was that he was too slow, and the opponent was too fast, it was as simple as that, and there was no other reason.
He smashed a punch on the ground with hatred, chagrin and regret swept over, he felt that he shouldn't have attacked just now, if he knew that Lin Yu's speed was so fast, instead of rushing out, it was better to directly seal the angle, in that case, it would be possible to block Lin Yu's shot.
But now it's too late.
"The ball is in!" Late roar, but no less excited, no less exciting.
Like a thunderclap in the winter, a hymn belonging to Dortmund sounded on the Donbass Stadium!
