Chapter 1 A Chance

When Yan Min continuously changed direction, shaking Boateng and breaking into the penalty area, Duan Xin couldn't wait to shout, "A chance—!!"

In his roar, another Bayern Munich central defender, Dante, also rushed up. At this time, he completely ignored everything else, with only Yan Min in his eyes. After all, Yan Min had the ball, and the player with the ball was naturally the biggest threat, even if his angle wasn't actually that great…

Neuer also moved to the near post, preparing to block Yan Min's possible shot.

At this moment, Yan Min didn't shoot. Instead, he used his right foot to push the ball past Dante, towards the penalty spot. There, Aubameyang had already arrived and volleyed the ball that Yan Min pushed over!

The football flew past Neuer's outstretched fingertips and into the goal!

As the football hit the net, Neuer collapsed to the ground in despair.

"Aubameyang—!!! Aubameyang!! He equalizes the score again for Borussia Dortmund!! 2:2! This game is truly unexpected!" Marcel Reif roared excitedly. "Before the game, everyone thought Borussia Dortmund would be at a clear disadvantage and would lose the game without any suspense, but now Bayern Munich has taken the lead twice in the game, but has been equalized by Borussia Dortmund twice! Borussia Dortmund is much more tenacious than we imagined!"

After scoring the goal, Aubameyang rushed towards Yan Min, who had passed him the ball.

In fact, in terms of position, the two of them should be in a competitive relationship. At first, Aubameyang didn't regard Yan Min as a competitor, because at that time, Yan Min couldn't even make the matchday squad.

However, after Yan Min performed well in the second game against Arsenal, there was a vague sense of competition. Some media discussed how Klopp should arrange him in light of Yan Min's outstanding performance. The final conclusion was that Aubameyang was the most likely target for Yan Min to replace.

In this case, if Yan Min were a little selfish, he would have taken the shot himself and scored. Wouldn't his position in Klopp's heart be even higher?

You have to know that Yan Min had been performing well for several consecutive games, while Aubameyang's performance had been mediocre after a good start to the season.

But Yan Min didn't do that. After all, his angle was too small, and the success rate of a forced shot wouldn't be high. On the other hand, Aubameyang had run into open space, and his success rate of shooting was much higher than his own.

So Yan Min unhesitatingly passed the ball, without considering the possible competitive relationship between himself and Aubameyang.

Aubameyang hugged Yan Min. Reus, Mark, and the others also ran up at this time, surrounding the two of them and celebrating together.

Borussia Dortmund equalized the score again in an unfavorable situation, which was like a shot in the arm for many Borussia Dortmund players.

And it also shows the effectiveness of Klopp's tactics – although our defense does have a big problem in this game, our attack is strong, we can concede goals, and we can score goals!

Seeing Yan Min surrounded by his Borussia Dortmund teammates, Duan Xin was quite gratified: "Yan Min's selfless pass helped Borussia Dortmund equalize the score. Ninety percent of the credit for this goal should actually be given to Yan Min. His series of breakthroughs before passing to Aubameyang was just too beautiful! Although Yan Min was able to break through and dribble when he played at Chongming and had a place in the team, it feels like his strength has grown even faster since he came to Borussia Dortmund..."

Next summer will be the Chinese team's second expedition to the World Cup, and Duan Xin certainly hopes that the Chinese team will have more and better players at that time.

The changes that have taken place in Yan Min show how much going abroad to play football can help a young player as long as he goes the right way.

The so-called "going the right way" means not blindly choosing those famous clubs where you can't play, and choosing a club that suits you according to your own conditions.

If you can't play at Real Madrid, then even transferring to Real Madrid is meaningless.

Now it seems that Yan Min's transfer to Borussia Dortmund was the right move.

Many people thought that Yan Min's choice of Borussia Dortmund was correct, because he had his compatriot Zhou Yi in Borussia Dortmund, who could definitely provide him with a lot of help both on and off the field, helping Yan Min gain a foothold in Borussia Dortmund and even play in games.

But now it seems that Zhou Yi does help Yan Min integrate into the team, but the extent of the help may not be as great as some people imagine. The reason why Yan Min is able to play in Borussia Dortmund and perform well is not dependent on Zhou Yi's status in Borussia Dortmund, but on his own efforts...

Borussia Dortmund's two consecutive equalizers completely enraged the Bayern Munich players. They never expected that a game that should have been an easy victory would have reached this point.

Could Borussia Dortmund really be their nemesis?

No!

We absolutely do not accept this setting!

So after the game restarted, Bayern Munich, who had been equalized, played more actively, while Borussia Dortmund, who had scored a goal, could only retreat to defend again.

As mentioned before, with Borussia Dortmund's makeshift defense, it is impossible to stop Bayern Munich's attack.

So in the seventy-ninth minute, Bayern Munich broke through Borussia Dortmund's goal again.

This time, they completely tore apart Borussia Dortmund's makeshift defense.

Götze dribbled the ball forward in midfield and then passed the ball to Robben.

Robben dribbled the ball to the vicinity of Borussia Dortmund's thirty-meter area and then cut inside from the wing, heading towards the center.

Once Robben goes to the center, all the defensive players will be particularly nervous, because this is Robben's usual routine. Everyone knows that he is a left-footed player but plays on the right side in order to cut inside and shoot. Everyone knows it very well, but they just can't defend it...

So when Robben cut inside, Borussia Dortmund's defense began to panic. Friedrich and Durm immediately pressed up, resulting in large areas of space on the right side and ribs of the penalty area.

At this time, Robben did not choose to continue dribbling horizontally and then forcibly shoot, but cleverly passed the ball to the right wing, to the advancing Lahm.

After Lahm got the ball on the wing, Durm quickly turned to pounce on him, while Friedrich didn't even have the strength to turn around and defend.

Lahm looked up and observed the situation, and found that Borussia Dortmund's defense had been completely disrupted. Müller in the center was unguarded. He directly raised his foot and passed the ball.

Müller easily received the ball, adjusted it, and then shot. The football窜 flew past Weidenfeller's fingertips and into the goal...

Throughout the whole process, Borussia Dortmund's defense was led by the nose by Bayern Munich's attack, and it was a complete mess.

"Müller! Bayern Munich takes the lead again! 3:2! Borussia Dortmund's defense is really too problematic. Such a mess of a defense has never been seen before. None of the main defenders are there, which has too much of an impact on Borussia Dortmund's defense..." Marcel Reif sighed. "The only thing to be thankful for is that Borussia Dortmund's attacking combination performed very well in this game, otherwise, Borussia Dortmund should be 0:3 behind now..."

This time, the Bayern Munich players who scored the goal did not celebrate. Among them, Müller ran straight to the goal after shooting, and then grabbed the ball before Weidenfeller could pick it up, hugged it in his arms, and ran towards the center circle.

The other Bayern Munich players didn't intend to come up and celebrate the goal either. Even if they did, they just simply gave Müller a high-five and then ran back to their own half with him.

This scene is quite rare, because in the past, the team that was behind would do this in order to seize the time. Now it is Bayern Munich, who is in the lead, who is doing this...

Why would Bayern Munich do this?

In fact, it was all forced by Borussia Dortmund's tenacity.

Before, they scored a goal, and Borussia Dortmund would equalize. This fully shows how unsafe and unreliable a one-goal lead is. So the Bayern Munich players would think, the reason why we are always equalized by Borussia Dortmund must be related to the fact that we only lead them by one goal.

If we can lead Borussia Dortmund by two goals, then we can completely deflate Borussia Dortmund.

With the current situation of Borussia Dortmund's defense, it is not difficult for Bayern Munich to score another goal.

So at this time, we must take advantage of Borussia Dortmund's illness and take Borussia Dortmund's life!

Their eagerness to kick off is to score a goal in a short period of time.
