Midfielder Ruler

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-"

Demichelis helped Caballero to re-tie his shoelaces. The game time had reached 90 minutes. The fourth official held up the electronic card for four minutes of stoppage time, but there were deafening boos at the Westfalen Stadium.

It's not that they are dissatisfied with the stoppage time, but they are dissatisfied with Caballero's behavior of delaying the game time.

The referee Thomson wants to take care of it, but he has nothing to do with the behavior within the allowed range of the rules.

Caballero has rich game experience and doesn't care about the deafening boos at all.

He delays the game time according to his own strategy, and every second he can delay is a second.

And delaying the game time has multiple meanings. The simple point is to delay the game time on the bright side, and the meaning behind it can further stimulate the impatience of Dortmund players, so as to achieve the final effect of increasing the defensive success rate.

With enough distance back, Caballero raised his right arm high, signaling that he was going to take a goal kick.

But when he took the second step, he suddenly slipped and almost staggered to the ground.

This time, more Dortmund fans were dissatisfied.

Tang Zheng, who was standing next to referee Thomson, was very dissatisfied with Caballero's behavior, and he pointed at Caballero to complain.

The referee Thomson seemed to have had enough of the Argentine Caballero's delaying the game. He blew his whistle and ran to the top of the penalty area to show a yellow card.

Caballero acted innocent. He shrugged his shoulders and ran to the referee Thomson to explain, seemingly aggrieved.

Which of the referees who can call off the focus of the second round of the Champions League quarter-finals is not an experienced veteran driver?

Can't see Caballero's cleverness?

He warned Caballero seriously: "I advise you not to play any tricks. I have recorded the time you consumed just now. I will give some time as appropriate after the four minutes of stoppage time."

Tang Zheng, who followed the referee all the way, didn't say anything after hearing these words. He quickly retreated to the midfield, ready to compete for the goal kick of Malaga this time.

Caballero delayed the game, and German Sky commentator Marcel Leif said indignantly: "This is a completely dishonorable behavior! I firmly believe that Dortmund will re-enter the rest of the game. One goal! The dark horse ends here!!"

Central 5 commentator He Wei's mentality has changed significantly.

The tone is no longer as sure as before: "Caballero successfully delayed for half a minute, and there are still three and a half minutes left for Dortmund. I don't know if Dortmund can score another goal in the last time of the game..."

The camera of the on-site director happened to show Tang Zheng, and Tang's father, who was sitting in front of the TV watching the game, naturally clenched his fists and said word by word: "It will definitely work! Come on! Son!! Dad is still waiting to go to the new school!" Watch your final at Wembley Stadium!"

In Lyon, Zhao Lina's beautiful eyes were full of confidence: "You can do it, Brother Tang Zheng!"

Tang Zheng fans all over the world murmured in a low voice: "I believe in you!"

※※※

Caballero kicked a big goal kick, Tang Zheng shook his head very easily and threw the football to Shaheen.

Portillo didn't even take a look at it, let alone press. He strictly followed Pellegrini's tactical requirements and quickly retreated to his own half to participate in the defense.

Shaheen who got the ball didn't delay the fighter and handed it to Tang Zheng directly.

Tang Zheng glanced at the Malaga defender who was five meters away and decisively gave up on taking the ball. Instead, he handed it directly to Royce's feet, and then slowly approached the attacking right.

As in the previous few minutes, Toulalan was staring at him, and the surrounding Malaga players were like wolves and tigers.

When Hummels ran into the penalty area, Royce passed the ball to Piszczek who was on the edge, and the latter made a direct pass without stopping the ball.

Neither Lewandowski, Hummels, nor Schieber hit the ball, and the ball was pushed out by Jesús Gamez who hit back.

The football is not far away, and Gotze, who is guarding in front of the penalty area, is waiting straight. He stops the ball forward with his chest, steps forward with his left foot, and volleys with his right heel.

Because Malaga shrank too much, Gotze was almost unmarked, so his volley was well controlled.

However, there are people in the penalty area, and unless a very high-quality shot is made, it will be difficult to pass through the players on both sides.

The football was refracted under Antunez's thigh along the bottom and rolled out of the bottom line.

corner kick!

Gotze raced against time and ran to the corner flag area on the left, ready to take a corner kick.

The Malaga players in the penalty area were looking for physical confrontation with nothing to do. The Dortmund players were already impatient, and they were very angry when facing the excessive pulling of the Malaga players. Hummels was let down because of the dispute with Portillo. The referee Thomson stopped the game.

Klopp, standing in the command area of ​​the home team coach, was like an ant on a hot pot, running around in a hurry.

He thought it would be better to take a corner kick earlier than to spend time in unnecessary quarrels.

In this way, the game consumed another half a minute, coming to the 92 minutes of the whole game.

"Aww-"

The frenetic atmosphere at the Westfalenstadion grew even more frenetic as the game drew to a close, which was one of the reasons why Dortmund's players were getting more and more impatient.

The fans are so awesome, what reason do the players not work hard?

However, excessive emotional ups and downs affected the normal performance of Dortmund players. Scibel did not exert his strength under the interference of Ignacio Camacho, and the football was easily won by Caballero who was standing on the goal line.

In the broadcast footage, Caballero took advantage of the situation and pressed the football under his body, as if holding a lost and recovered treasure.

According to the relevant regulations of FIFA, the goalkeeper cannot hold the ball for more than six seconds, but most of the time the referee turns a blind eye.

That was the case this time, with Thomson simply waving Caballero to hurry up and release the ball after he had the ball for more than six seconds.

With a big foot, the football flew out of Dortmund's right defensive half.

From the point of view of the sight, this is a failed goal kick, but the Spanish national TV commentator is very satisfied. He said proudly: "Now that all Malaga are retreating, kicking the ball directly to the opponent's half is equivalent to changing the possession of the ball. So Willi Caballero was smart, he kicked the football towards the touchline in the opponent's half, and Dortmund took a little time to throw the ball from the touchline and then build up the attack..."

Piszczek threw a sideline ball, and the live director gave Klopp a close-up shot-Klopp kept making body movements that pressed forward.

Time is running out!

The central 5 commentator glanced at the game time from the corner of his eye, and raised his eyebrows: "There is still one minute left!"

At the same time, Santana didn't think too much about receiving the sideline ball thrown by Piszczek, and drove directly towards the penalty area.

But because he was too anxious, the power was not well controlled, and the football fell too close to Caballero.

※※※

Tang Zheng, who was standing in front of the arc top of the penalty area, saw the football in Caballero's hands, with his hands on his hips, looking very helpless.

At this moment, Caballero changed his previous style of delaying the game time, suddenly took a stride forward, and slammed his right arm with the football tightly.

"Oops!!"

Tang Zheng, who had his eyes on Caballero, suddenly realized something. Before his brain gave the command, his body turned around and returned to defense!

"Philip Santana is too anxious, and Willy Caballero must consume the game time reasonably," Marcel Leif just finished speaking, and his voice suddenly changed after seeing Caballero's actions, exclaiming : "Hand throwing the ball?"

Everyone thought that Caballero would continue to consume game time, but at this time he chose to throw the ball and launch a quick counterattack.

Dortmund defended the half, leaving Santana as the only defensive player.

"Isco!!"

The camera of the on-site director had just switched over, and it happened that Isco stopped the ball firmly with his chest, and there were no Dortmund players around him, so the Spanish national TV commentator almost roared with excitement.

"Ooh-oh--"

At the same time, deafening loud exclamations suddenly sounded in the sky above the Westphalian Stadium.

At this time, it is undoubtedly a disaster for Malaga to get a chance to counterattack quickly!

According to the horizontal coordinates, Shaheen is parallel to Isco, but he is not good at speed.

All he can do is to run back to limit Malaga's second point of response for a quick counterattack, which is Portillo who followed up at high speed.

Klopp, who was standing on the sidelines, held his head in pain. He obviously didn't expect the result to be like this...

But the next moment, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a yellow and black figure running towards his own half at high speed.

That is... Tang Zheng! !

In terms of choice, Tang Zheng didn't chase Isco, that would be unrealistic, the running speed of football is often faster than that of people.

The goal of a quick counterattack is to score a goal, and the premise of scoring a goal is to send the football to the opponent's core defensive area.

What is the most core defensive area?

It is nothing more than the place closest to the goal-the middle of the penalty area.

Tang Zheng believes that football will eventually be passed to the middle.

After receiving the football, Isco is very confident. In the past period of time, he has consciously reduced running to recover his physical fitness.

In order to launch a fatal blow!

Now is the time when Dortmund's defense is weakest. Even if there is no way to score a goal, the remaining game time must be used up!

Of course, Isco's first choice is to score goals.

Because one more goal, the rest of the game will be meaningless!

With this in mind, Isco dribbled the ball quickly across the center line, and Santana received a yellow card. He didn't dare to foul, so he chose to fight and retreat.

In the middle, Shaheen defended and defended Portillo.

At this time, Tang Zheng had already run to the middle circle of Malaga, only seven or eight meters away from Portillo in the middle, and suddenly felt hopeful.

He gritted his teeth and accelerated the swing frequency of his arms.

※※※

The fans at the scene were very nervous. Their eyes were focused on Isco and Santana who were in possession of the ball. They were afraid that Isco would break through Santana in the blink of an eye and kill the game!

At this time, the moment of life and death!

If Malaga scores a goal, the game ends early.

Facing Santana's fight and retreat defense, the corner of Isco's mouth raised a beautiful arc, appearing full of confidence.

Isco moved forward with the ball, Santana kept falling back, and then waited for his teammates to come back to help.

Piszczek chased very hard, but his physical fitness has dropped a lot so far, so it is a bit hard to run.

Retreating to the 40-meter defensive area of ​​his own side, Santana realized that retreating was not an option, so he might as well give it a go.

Even if you can't break the football, you must keep Isco in place to minimize the pressure on the defense!

At this moment, Isco flicked the ball to the right with the outer instep of his right foot.

It happened to meet the premise of Santana's position, so he was obviously stunned

Santana is tall and Isco is flexible, which means that Santana is at a disadvantage without the ball.

What's more, Santana has to make an emergency stop and turn around, while Isco only needs to bypass Santana's coverage area.

Portillo, who received the ball, did not miss the ball. He pushed his arch and the football rolled towards Isco's forward running route.

Shaheen, who was chasing back, had no time to think, turned a corner, and rushed towards Isco.

Santana, who failed in the grab, also turned a corner, and he changed to defend Portillo.

More than a second later, Isco stretched his foot to receive Portillo's 'two over one' pass from the attacking left rib about 25 meters away from the baseline.

Immediately, facing Shaheen who was returning to the defense at full speed, Isco chose to make an emergency stop on the spot, and flicked the ball to the right with the outer instep of his right foot, with an obvious intention of cutting inward laterally.

Shaheen had to brake sharply on the spot, twisted his waist and turned to Isco to cut inside.

But Isco's emergency stop and change of direction was just a fake move, and the real ultimate move was behind.

The arch of his right foot quickly dunked the ball to the left, in the opposite direction of Shaheen's movement.

It was obviously too late for Shaheen to turn around. The goalkeeper Weidenfeller, who was full of attention, had no choice but to abandon the goal and attack.

Near the left penalty area line, Isco was overjoyed to see Weidenfeller abandoning the goal and attacking. Full of spirituality, he rubbed the outer instep of his right foot towards the bottom of the football.

Football is not fast, but high enough.

Weidenfeller, who was about three meters away from Isco, subconsciously jumped on the spot, but his outstretched right arm did not touch the football.

And the running direction of football is exactly the unguarded goal.

"Challenge?"

The Spanish national television commentator shouted.

"Oh-My-God!!"

Marcel Leif put his head in his hands, his face full of disbelief.

"Isco! Shot? Huh? Weidenfeller didn't touch the football."

He Wei, the narrator of Central 5, paused for a while, and suddenly became speechless.

Most fans at the scene chose to close their eyes and meet death.

At the same time, the die-hard Dortmund fans in the South Stand suddenly burst into deafening cheers: "Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo—"

The football flies to its highest point and then starts to fall.

All eyes were on football, and so was Pellegrini.

With his hands in his pockets and his head held high, he looked extraordinarily confident.

If nothing else, he can enter the Champions League semi-finals like he led Villarreal seven years ago.

But... there are surprises in everything.

In addition to the football in the broadcast footage, there is also a yellow and black figure stubbornly chasing after him.

The big number ten on the back told everyone in front of the TV.

Who is he!

Tang Zheng! !

This is also the root cause of the deafening cheers from the South Stand!

Isco, who followed the football and looked towards the goal, widened his eyes. He saw the most incredible scene in his life.

Tang Zheng, who ran to the small restricted area line, kicked his left foot vigorously and leaped high. At the same time, he leaned back with his upper body and swung his right foot from bottom to top. In front of everyone, he kicked towards the goalkeeper football……
