Chapter 288 Second Half
Before the second half came, Manchester City had already led by 2 goals.
Moreover, the second goal was an own goal, which seriously hit Dortmund's fighting spirit.
Neither side created a threat in the subsequent game, and the first half ended.
The players on both sides returned to their respective locker rooms, and the Dortmund players were dejected.
Especially Bender, who gave the own goal, his face looked very ugly at this time.
At the beginning, Dortmund gave a point, but the goalkeeper rushed out.
Actually, it was already very good, but Manchester City scored offside goals later, but the referee did not see it.
Then Aguero made an own goal with his shoes, and Dortmund was so lucky.
Unfortunately, there is no VAR yet, otherwise both balls could be avoided.
After returning to the locker room, Tuchel did not accuse the team of defense, and they did a pretty good job.
He first calmed the team's fighting spirit, and then began to arrange the tactics for the second half of the game.
You have to know that this is their home court, so how could they give up the game like this?
The halftime break ended soon, and the players on both sides quickly returned to the court.
Dortmund, who was two goals behind, knew that changes must be made at this time, so they made two substitution adjustments one after another.
The first one to be replaced was Bender, who gave the own goal.
In fact, being replaced at this time still had a great psychological impact on him.
But Tuchel could only change him, and there was nothing we could do about it.
Then he replaced left winger Schmelzer, and replaced midfielder Shahin and right winger Pulisic respectively.
Such substitutions feel a bit like a desperate gamble. The three defenders have turned into two defenders.
In this case, both wingers must retreat.
Otherwise, Dortmund's defense would be wide open in front of Manchester City.
Dortmund's midfield is already strong, and with this substitution, Dortmund's midfield has become stronger.
The game just started for one minute because of Manchester City's Otamendi's foul.
Dortmund got a chance to set the ball, and the position was still very good.
This position allows you to shoot directly, which makes Manchester City players serious.
Before the free throw point, several Dortmund players were talking.
Judging from their attitude, they obviously want to hit the door directly.
This made Cabalero serious and constantly laying out the human walls.
At this time, he did not dare to relax at all, and he was very focused.
At this time, Dembele retreated to the left of the free throw point, while Aubameyang retreated to the opposite direction of the goal.
It seems that Aubameyang will give a free kick, but Dembele starts to run.
But some people would think that Dembele directly flicked a shot.
Aubameyang will still take the penalty, but Dembele still plays for football.
Dembello made a curve ball in this ball, but when he saw the football in the air, goalkeeper Cabalero knew that the ball was not threatening.
Seeing that the football is very close to the goal, the football still flew out of the bottom line.
Because of substitution adjustments, Dortmund's midfield control has become stronger.
The opponent's sudden tactical changes made Manchester City very uncomfortable.
Before we knew it, the 57th minute came, and Dortmund launched an attack again.
At this time, their minds were full of goals. They could never end the loss at their home court, even if the opponent was a powerful Manchester City.
They had a good chance before, and successfully approached Aubameyang with a top pass.
Aubameyang's speed is well known, but fortunately the goalkeeper attacked in time to prevent this attack.
Now Pulisic, who is on the bench, gets the ball on the right, and Sarnia quickly defends.
Pulisic did not choose to break through, but passed it to Zhou Yuan in the middle.
Zhou Yuan's performance today is OK, but because of the team's disadvantages, he does not have much shot.
After Zhou Yuan received the pass, he immediately went to the penalty area to observe.
However, the teammates in the penalty area have very poor positions, and forced passes will definitely be intercepted by Manchester City.
So he looked in other directions and saw that the left side was empty.
He decisively moved the football to the left, and midfielder Guerrero was here at this time.
He successfully received the pass, and Zhou Yuan rushed into the penalty area immediately after passing the ball.
At 45 degrees on the left outside the penalty area, Guerrero actually made a cross directly.
The football drew an arc and looked for forward Aubameyang.
However, the quality of the crossing is not very high, and the football is a little low.
There is basically no chance to head the ball, so Aubameyang can only use a detached side hook posture to hit the goal.
But his posture was too awkward and he couldn't get enough strength.
He couldn't even control the direction, and the football hit the ground and bounced towards the goal.
The ball is very slow, so it is impossible for goalkeeper Cabalero to be.
But Cabalero rushed to the football because he saw a figure.
It turned out that Zhou Yuan, who had been transferred before, was rushing towards the football.
If Zhou Yuan is really allowed to catch up with the football, then the ball will be in danger.
Cabalero knew that he had to attack and tried to hold the football in advance.
But Zhou Yuan was faster and he was the first to catch up with football.
But Cabarello had already come to him, and when Cabarello saw him chasing the football, he fell to the ground and wanted to force the football.
In fact, no one would say about Zhou Yuan’s shot at the door at this time, because he ran out of this opportunity.
But Zhou Yuan was very selfless. Under such circumstances, he actually chose to pass the ball.
He kicked the football with his left foot and kicked the football to the right.
Seeing that Zhou Yuan actually passed the ball, Cabalero was completely desperate.
Because he knew he was completely helpless, the football passed to Dembele in front of the goal.
Dembele faced the rolling football and pointed his right foot towards the football.
Dortmund scored a goal 1-2!
"Ouch! Finally scored a goal!" Liu Jiayuan commented.
"Demberle finally scored a goal, and he wasted two excellent opportunities before."
"This time he finally seized the opportunity. To be honest, if he didn't score the ball, it would be a bit unreasonable."
"This ball Zhou Yuan can be said to be fed to his mouth, and he is facing an empty goal."
"Today's game was interesting. Aguero lost a penalty, but he scored soon, although he was not discovered offside."
"Now Dortmund's Dembele has wasted two consecutive opportunities, and now he has also scored a goal against an empty goal."
"The score came 1-2, and Dortmund finally scored a goal at his home court."
After scoring the goal, Dembele did not celebrate, but rushed into the goal and took out the football.
At this time, Manchester City's head coach Guardiola and Manchester City fans who came to the away game became uneasy.
