Midfielder Ruler

The frenzied atmosphere at the Westfalen Stadium was still strong, and the 80,000 home fans erupted in loud shouts that swept the entire stadium like a mountain roar and a tsunami.

Villarreal fans watched with trepidation, for fear that Dortmund would score in the next wave of offense.

Tang Zheng was the best player in the first leg of the UEFA Europa League semi-finals in the 2010-2011 season. He created the most chances in the game. Therefore, the Villarreal players who are guests in this campaign are very concerned about Tang Zheng's field activities.

Before the game, the head coach Garrido also focused on telling the players to pay attention to Tang Zheng's performance.

Sure enough, Dortmund returned to the home court and pushed Tang Zheng to the front midfielder position.

Although Villarreal's focus on marking affected Tang Zheng's performance to a certain extent, it did not affect Dortmund's overall attack.

The number of players on the field remains unchanged, and Villarreal's excessive attention to Tang Zheng will inevitably cause the other Dortmund offensive players to have insufficient defensive strength.

Gotze came to the left forward position to maximize his breakthrough ability, and he has a good vision. He can notice the running position of his teammates while completing the breakthrough, so as to complete the deadly pass.

If it weren't for Diego Lopez's brave form, the home team should have broken the deadlock less than five minutes into the first half.

In a blink of an eye, ten minutes passed in the first half of the game.

Borussia Dortmund, who sit at home, has an absolute advantage, and they launched wave after wave of offensives towards Villarreal's goal.

"This is not a long-term solution, we must strengthen our offense!" The Spanish national television commentator said seriously.

The football came to Tang Zheng's feet again, and the Villarreal players immediately became extremely nervous, and Senna, who was facing him, pressed forward immediately.

But Tang Zheng didn't stop the ball, but threw the ball back to Shaxin.

Tang Zheng has already consciously increased his running range, but the half-court is only so big, coupled with Villarreal's targeted defense, it is difficult for him to receive passes from his teammates in a comfortable position.

Therefore, he chose to give up the frontcourt to organize the offense, but to use passing and running to assist his teammates to complete the offensive series.

Judging from the effect of these few minutes, it is quite good.

"A type of player who can play football with his mind." This is the comment given by scouts sent by some teams in some stands of the Westphalon Stadium.

Young talents like Tang Zheng, who are not yet twenty-two years old, are full of great temptations for wealthy clubs.

After watching Dortmund's away game against Villarreal, Real Madrid coach Mourinho called Florentino and asked him by name.

The same is true of Manchester United coach Ferguson, he hopes to bring Tang Zheng to Old Trafford before retiring.

Giants like Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool, etc. are also greedy, and don't want to miss this great potential and all-round midfielder.

In the fifteenth minute, Tang Zheng ran without hesitation, received a direct pass from Shaheen in the attacking right flank, and directly faced Villarreal's goal.

This position is only about 28 meters away from the goal, which is considered to be within Tang Zheng's long-range shooting range.

Tang Zheng stopped the ball very smoothly, there were no traditional Chinese players who stopped the ball two meters away, he raised his head and took a look at the goalkeeper Diego Lopez's position.

Make enough posture to shoot from a long distance.

Senna, who was on defense, was almost scared out of his wits. When he saw Tang Zheng swung his right foot, he stretched out his leg suddenly to make a blocking motion.

As a result, Tang Zheng just kicked the football with his right foot hard to the left, and dodged behind Senna.

"pretty!"

"Fake shot, real shot!!"

Marcel Leif burst into two hysterical shouts in succession.

Senna was way past his peak age, and his body couldn't keep up with consciousness, so he could only helplessly watch Tang Zheng make a breakthrough.

"Aww-"

Huge energy was instantly released from the Westphalia Stadium, echoing Tang Zheng's breakthrough.

Cazorla had to make up for Captain Senna to defend Tang Zheng.

※※※

Accompanied by the shouts erupting from the scene, Tang Zheng extended his left foot and kicked the ball to the right,

Keeping up with the right foot, the back of the foot is facing the ball and going forward.

Tang Zheng's explosive power was very strong, and Cazorla was not weak either, and there was a fierce confrontation between the two shoulders.

There is no doubt that Cazorla was directly bounced away.

The huge difference in tonnage is the decisive factor in this physical confrontation.

"It's a foul! Offensive foul!"

Villarreal coach Garrido raised his arms high, squatted down slightly, and complained loudly.

But no one paid attention to him, everyone's attention was focused on Tang Zheng.

The tonnage of the two was there, Tang Zheng didn't raise his elbows, and the height difference between the two was more than 20 centimeters. It was no wonder that Cazorla, who weighed only 66 kilograms, could beat Tang Zheng, who weighed 83 kilograms.

The position of the referee is also very good, and he is very discerning.

The two defensive midfielders were out of position, and the central defender had to go up, otherwise Tang Zheng could stop the football comfortably, and it would be troublesome!

The faster Musacchio shouldered the task of going forward and defending, and he went up without saying hello.

Tang Zheng, who was only two meters away from the top of the arc of the penalty area, noticed that Villarreal's defense began to retract, and he passed the ball without waiting for Musacchio to step forward.

The goal is Gotze on the left!

Goetze's ability to play in the midfielder in the middle reflects his organizational ability, and in the wing, he shows his extraordinary dribbling ability.

Coupled with the fact that Villarreal's entire defense line is consciously withdrawn, the side defense is very weak, the two wide midfielders have recovered to the two ribs, and the targets are Tang Zheng who just broke through, the current side defense Very empty.

Tang Zheng's pass made Dortmund's offense instantly clear!

"Beautiful!" BBC TV commentator Lineker shot up.

Gotze, who received the football, got a one-on-one chance with Gonzalo!

As Dortmund's key training target, Gotze's decisive value is very high.

Tang Zheng scored the ball at the front of the penalty area, making the two sides wide open, and the center of the penalty area was heavily marked, and breaking through the penalty area as soon as possible is the kingly way!

Gotze used the ultra-fast frequency of his feet to make a fake move to cut in and then slammed the ball towards the baseline.

Fortunately, Gonzalo kept an eye out and completed the turn at a slightly slower speed.

But Gotze had the starting advantage, and Gonzalo could only get stuck behind Gotze's right side.

Of course, he had thought of shoveling from the side to the rear, but this choice was relatively risky and would increase the chance of a tackle failing.

Judging from the broadcast footage, Gotze's speed is indeed fast.

After completing the smash, he took advantage of his speed to send the ball into the penalty area, making Gonzalo, who followed into the penalty area, have to be more careful.

Goetze, who was running, turned his head and glanced at the penalty area, and then swung his left foot to pass.

※※※

"Whoa-a penalty!!"

Suddenly, almost frantic shouts from the fans of the home team sounded from the sky above Westphalia.

At the same time, Gotze raised his right arm excitedly.

Barrios, who was about to outflank in the middle of the penalty area, and Tang Zheng, who was stepping on the line of the big penalty area, did the same. They excitedly patted the arm of the other hand with their palms, signaling to Gonzalo, who fell to the ground, to handball!

The referee on duty hesitated for a moment, and after about half a second, he sounded his whistle, and then pointed his right index finger to the penalty spot.

"Penalty kick!" Xinwolves sports commentator Huang Jianxiang looked at the referee's gestures in the broadcast and said excitedly: "Penalty kick! Gotze's cross hit Gonzalo's left arm, and the referee signaled a handball foul !"

Gonzalo, who fell to the ground to block, stood up excitedly when he saw the referee's gesture, and explained with his hands spread out: "The football didn't hit the arm, it was the chest!"

Other Villarreal players also surrounded the referee and argued fiercely.

Tang Zheng ran towards Getze, habitually stroked Getce's short short hair, and said with a smile, "Mario, beautiful!"

"Awesome!"

Barrios and Schmelzer also came to give Gotze high fives.

This penalty kick came at a good time. If the tie came to 20 minutes, Villarreal will be more confident as a guest.

At that time, Villarreal, who is behind, will definitely press out to attack, which means that Dortmund will have more and more opportunities!

The head coach was so determined that Musacchio even got a yellow card for being too excited about the protest.

And this yellow card will also make Musacchio miss the next game.

It's just that there is basically no suspense about whether Villarreal will have the next game this season.

It was Tang Zheng who took the penalty kick, so far he has taken the penalty kick without fail, and he deserves to be the number one penalty kicker.

Looking at Tang Zheng, Diego Lopez was very nervous.

Since Tang Zheng became Dortmund's number one penalty shooter at the end of last season, or in other words, since the beginning of Tang Zheng's career, he has never missed a penalty.

This is a lot of pressure for any goalkeeper.

In the end, Diego Lopez, who suffered from difficulty in choosing, didn't make any saves. He bet that Tang Zheng would play in the center, but Tang Zheng shot to the right of the goal.

"Aww-"

Immediately, the Westfalen Stadium boiled, and 80,000 Dortmund fans shouted frantically, venting their goals.

Even if Villarreal pulls back a goal next time, Dortmund will also advance to the Europa League final this season with the advantage of more away goals!

The last time Dortmund entered the Europa League final dates back to nine years ago. It was the Blue Dream Quilt, the predecessor of the Europa League. At that time, they lost to the Eredivisie team Feyenoord and finished second.

※※※

"Goalkeeper Diego Lopez did not respond, Tang Zheng scored a penalty kick! This is his ninth goal in the Europa League this season! Dortmund at home has advanced to the Europa League final this season. !!" Sina sports commentator Huang Jianxiang gave a crazy commentary, eloquent, drooling and witty.

The live broadcast camera showed Tang Zheng who was standing there, he spread his arms to welcome his teammates' hugs.

Marcel Leif said with a smile: "Penalty kicks are for Tang! Every time Dortmund gets a penalty kick, it already means that the score has changed..."

Diego Lopez was not lost, he was just one of the goalkeepers in Tang Zheng's penalty kick.

He believed that he was definitely not the last goalkeeper to be scored a penalty by Tang Zheng, since he had never missed a penalty since the beginning of his career.

The psychological quality is like a monster.

One goal behind, Villarreal coach Garrido had to implement plan b.

Step up your offense!

Everyone knows that playing against Dortmund in Westphalia is undoubtedly a dead end, but for Garrido, there is no choice.

Even if you score 1:1, you can't advance to the final. There are only 2:1 or 3:3 away draws.

Even if the away game is 2:2, the game can only enter overtime.

However, now the score is 0:1 behind Villarreal away, they have to strengthen the offensive.

The so-called strengthening of the offensive is just to move the positions of the two full-backs forward, closer to Dortmund's defensive line.

The more Villarreal put in their attacking force, the better the game and Dortmund's chances began to increase.

In the thirty-seventh minute, Tang Zheng received a cross pass from Gotze and did not stop the ball. He directly arched the ball to one end of the penalty area. Barrios knew how to stand out from Villarreal's entire defense line and used Push the ball forward with the chest, and follow up with a burst shot.

Goalkeeper Diego López wasn't ready for the ball and all he could do was push up subconsciously.

But Barrios's shot was powerful, the ball was fast, and by the time he made a pounce, it was too late...

2:0

"Lucas! Lucas Barrios! He is in great shape! Dortmund leads Villarreal with two goals at home, and the total score becomes 4:2! They are getting closer and closer to the final !"

Marcel Leff said excitedly.

If Villarreal wants to qualify for the final, they must score two consecutive goals in the remaining time of the game, and they must also try to keep a clean sheet.

Judging from the current state of performance, the probability is too small.

That's why Marcel Leif said that.

"FINAL! FINAL!! WE'RE GOING TO FINAL!!!"

Villarreal players are in a bad mood, as is coach Garrido.

He was very worried about falling behind by one goal, not to mention falling behind by two goals now...

The second conceded goal in this game can be said to be an extension of the first conceded goal. The consequence of strengthening the offense is that the defensive system is not stable enough.

There are causes and effects.

The game restarted, and Villarreal continued to maintain an offensive, striving to get a goal back before the end of the first half.

However, the process was a bit different from their imagination. Dortmund, who were leading by two goals, strengthened their possession of the ball under Tang Zheng's control, and used high pressure to force Villarreal to make consecutive mistakes. Garrido and Villa Real fans were terrified.

Fortunately, before the end of the first half, Dortmund did not score again, and they entered the locker room with a two-goal advantage.

In the second half, Villarreal had no choice but to change sides and fight again.

A score of 2:2 can guarantee that they will let the game enter overtime, and if they want to score three goals in a row, a miracle must appear...

However, did a miracle happen in Westphalia?

Dortmund remain unbeaten in all competitions this season, will this happen?

Obviously unlikely!

In the 68th minute of the whole game, Tang Zheng cut off Cazorla's football in the backcourt and passed it directly to the right side of the attack.

Tang Zheng's direct pass has a large amount of advance, which is very suitable for Kuba's sprint.

He is like a supercar speeding on the highway, passing at high speed on the right side of Dortmund's attack, leaving Capdevila behind him far away...
