The game against Arsenal is the new season, the first UEFA Champions League game at Westfield.

Two days before the game, the entire stadium has been replaced with the decoration of the Champions League, making this stadium a Champions League stadium.

Local media are also reporting on the arrival of their opponent Arsenal in Dortmund.

Zhou Yi does not seem to care much about his Champions League opponents, he is more concerned about Mark's injury.

Before the game with Arsenal, he went to Mark's house to visit Mark.

After the operation, Mark looks good, he said to Zhou Yi: "I will cheer you up in front of the TV, Zhou Yi!"

"Then be careful, don't jump too excited, ha!" Zhou Yi laughed.

"If necessary, I'll tie him to the sofa." Cortana said coldly.

Mark carried his sister on his back and grimaced at Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi grinned.

The siblings have a really good relationship.

After dinner, Zhou Yi said goodbye to the Marks family. Mrs. Wagner repeatedly thanked Zhou Yineng for visiting Mark, but Zhou Yi said that it was normal to visit his friends.

At last, Zhou Yi and Mark hug and say goodbye. Cortana keeps watching beside her and does not speak. Until Zhou Yi left, she did not say thank you, goodbye.

Zhou Yi was picked up by his agent Schulte, and everyone returned to the house.

Mrs. Wagner complained that Cortana did not understand politeness: "Everyone is leaving, you don't say goodbye, just look around."

Cortana didn't talk back to her mother, she turned and said to Mark: "I'll help you upstairs."

When going upstairs, Mark whispered to his sister: "Actually, Zhou Yiren is very good, don't you always give him a look, sister..."

He cherishes the hope that his sister will be able to coexist with good friends and have a closer relationship. Don't be like the enemy, tear it up when you meet.

Cortana opened her mouth, but didn't know how to answer her brother, so she closed her mouth again. Simply wrap yourself with frost and a mask so you don't need to explain.

Because it is a very troublesome thing to explain.

How did she explain to her brother that she and Zhou Yi had been living together for two years, and she also cooked for Zhou Yi herself. When the two are alone, they can still chat together. In fact, her relationship with Zhou Yi may not be as bad as her brother imagined...

But when there were outsiders, Cortana was habitually cold on Zhou Yi, even she could not explain why. Anyway, in front of outsiders, she would feel a little uncomfortable...

Dortmund's home game against Arsenal took place on the evening of local time. Before the game started, Westerly Stadium was already full.

The South Grandstand has once again become a yellow-black wall, and fans are constantly singing, stirring up the atmosphere of the game.

Then the iconic theme song of the Champions League sounded, and the players of both sides stepped into the stadium under the leadership of the referee.

Zhou Yi was among them.

This is his second season in the Champions League.

For the whole of Europe, he is no longer a strange boy, and many opponents will study him and target him. He may no longer be able to play as he pleases, he must learn to fight those tough opponents.

Just like the rookie wall, there may be the same thing in the Champions League.

In fact, this view has always existed in the media after the result of the draw of the Champions League group in Dortmund.

But not just for Zhou Yi, but for Dortmund's entire team.

Experts think that Dortmund played so well in the Champions League last season because they were unfamiliar to the whole of Europe at that time. Those opponents in the Champions League were not very familiar with Klopp's tactics, so they were only Dortmund. I was caught by surprise.

But this season, this situation will no longer exist. Due to the excellent performance of Dortmund last season, almost all European teams that can participate in the Champions League will pay attention to them and study them. It will be difficult for them to create the glory of last season.

It sounds reasonable to hear this statement suddenly. But if you calm down and analyze it carefully, you will feel that all the experts are saying.

Because before the Champions League last season, experts said so-they think Dortmund is inexperienced and certainly cannot go too far in the Champions League.

As a result, after playing a season, seeing Dortmund performing well, he changed his caliber, thinking that Dortmund was able to perform well last season precisely because they are new faces. But for the same reason, it turns into inexperience without optimistic about Dortmund...

Do you say this is nonsense?

The same is true of Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi performed well in his UEFA Champions League season, saying that no one knew Zhou Yi. If Zhou Yi did not perform well in his UEFA Champions League season, would it be because Zhou Yi lacked the Champions League experience?

In fact, on this point, supporters who really understand Zhou Yi should not have similar concerns.

Because this question already has an answer.

Zhou Yi performed well in his league debut season. At that time, some people said that the second season will be Zhou Yi's rookie wall. His performance will definitely not be as amazing as his first season.

The results of it?

Last week Zhou Yi's assists and goals scored a new high, and helped Dortmund to win the league title.

After such a good performance, no one mentioned the rookie wall after the season.

Unexpectedly, these people don't seem to have long memory, and the old words are mentioned again in the Champions League...

Zhou Yi himself does not care about this kind of topic, but his supporters are very irritable and uncomfortable. I think this is a naked contempt for Zhou Yi-is it easy for our family Zhou Yi to be a short-lived person?

After the game started, Arsenal used the ball control tactics. They are not in a hurry to attack. After all, this is an away game. Beware of Dortmund’s quick counterattack. Although they do not have the kind of players with absolutely fast speed in their frontline attack lineup, everyone has a strong running ability Yi's passing organization last week, so their quick counterattack by passing and running is still very threatening.

In the face of Arsenal's steady fight, Dortmund was not in a hurry, slowly circling with them.

For Zhou Yi, Arsenal also made corresponding deployment.

They did not arrange for people to stare at him all the time, but to defend the area.

When Zhou Yi is in the lower back position, Van Persie and Walcott will "care for" him. And if Zhou Yi comes forward, there are also Arsenal midfielders, such as Alexander Song, the Cameroon midfielder known as "Vieira's successor", has a very good defensive ability.

If Zhou Yi continues to go deeper and comes to the penalty area, there will be more Arsenal players to deal with him.

After the start of the game, Zhou Yi did encounter strong resistance.

If he is just a long pass in the backcourt, whether it is Van Persie or Walcott, their defense against Zhou Yi is not very strict. After all, they are not the kind of people who are good at defending.

However, under Arsenal's steady and steady play, Zhou Yi's long pass can only exert limited power. Long passes are often used only as a means of transferring the ball. To threaten the opponent's goal, they can only counterattack.

But Arsenal's tactics in this game will not give Dortmund too many opportunities to fight back.

So if you want to get closer to Arsenal's restricted area and go forward, Alexander Song will appear next to Zhou Yi.

Alexander Song is a defensive player who has a very defensive action and even a lot of fouls. His defensive style has been criticized, but Arsenal fans like his defense because he always keeps the team's goals away from threats.

Who doesn't like having such a defensive player in his team?

But as an opponent, I don't like it.

A minute ago, Zhou Yi was not satisfied with using a long pass to transfer the ball in the backcourt and planned to go forward.

But before he reached Arsenal's 30-meter area, he was blocked by Alexander Song.

Zhou Yi just stopped the ball and hadn't had time to pass the soccer ball. Song was hit by a car like a car.

Although after several seasons of exercise, Zhou Yi's muscle strength has increased a lot from the beginning, but in the face of Song's impact, it is still not enough to see...

He was knocked to the ground and the referee's whistle sounded.

Song fouled, but he prevented Dortmund's attack, and this was not a serious impact, nor was it worth the referee to give Song a yellow card.

Get the maximum benefit with the smallest cost.

The foul against Song on the Wester Stadium sounded a big boo.

In the boo, Song ran back to his place, and Zhou Yi got up from the ground.

Zhou Yi is not surprised by this kind of scene. In the simulation game, he has already realized Song's physical advantages.

Five minutes later, he lost again in front of his body. After taking the ball this time, when he took it forward, Song was squeezed in by his physical advantage and then snatched the football...

This time, Song didn't even foul.

※※※

"Song! Beautiful steal! Look, look at this body! Aha!" The British Sky TV commentator laughed.

In fact, in terms of weight, Song is not much heavier than Zhou Yi, and not too much in height.

But Song's tight muscles seemed to contain explosive power, and his collision action when defending always seemed to be fierce, as if the opponent would be scrapped in the next foot.

This very aggressive defense will naturally make the opponent feel afraid, thus giving him the opportunity to rush to break the ball.

For example, in the ball just now, Zhou Yi saw that Song came up and stopped habitually, and was squeezed in by Song to break the football.

If Zhou Yi must keep the ball right~lightnovelpub.net~ he may be injured by Song. The game didn't arrive within 20 minutes of the start. Wouldn't it be too worthless if it was injured because of this?

Anyway, Dortmund had already attacked the opponent's 30m area. Even if he lost the ball, it would not be too threatening for Dortmund.

Sure enough, after Song broke the ball, when he wanted to send forward, the result was not too good, so he had to pass the football back to Arteta, and he organized the attack, and the Dortmund player They are back.

Zhou Yi is also running back.

However, in the opinion of the British commentator, Zhou Yi planted in Song's hands twice in a row, fully explained his shortcomings.

"As a midfield organizer, Zhou Yi's body is too weak, and he can easily lose the ball when facing a tough defense. As a midfielder, once the ball is dropped, it is very dangerous... So actually to say that Arsenal was originally I don’t think it’s strange that he wasn’t selected, no need to be surprised. Arsenal has so many technical midfielders, Zhou Yi’s foot skills are not particularly outstanding, and his body is not dominant. Even if he is promoted to the first team of Arsenal, I am afraid he can only be a substitute..." (To be continued.)
