King of the Zone

With the roar of the commentators, countless Dortmund fans and Chinese fans in front of the TV cheered.

Even those neutral fans seemed very excited.

Although Atlético de Madrid is known as one of the top three in the Western Super League, its background and reputation are still inferior to traditional giants such as Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Therefore, in this 2012 European Super Cup, many neutral fans who do not usually watch Atletico Madrid games subconsciously feel that the strength is very different. Dortmund, the triple crown team that dominated Europe last season, will definitely be able to easily defeat Atletico Madrid and complete the annual five-time crown.

Unexpectedly, it was Atletico Madrid who scored the first goal.

And Cheng Hai did not disappoint, and evened the score.

However, Falcao scored twice to help Atletico Madrid take the lead again, and Cheng Hai, not to be outdone, also scored twice to tie the score.

The ups and downs of the game and the tense atmosphere may make the fans of the two teams feel uncomfortable, but the neutral fans definitely feel great happiness.

The quality of this game is really too high.

As some commentators said, everyone's eyes were wide open, and the scumbags didn't dare to blink, for fear that someone else would score a goal in the next moment.

Everyone feels right.

This game is indeed too thrilling.

After the game restarted, although Dortmund took advantage of the equalizer and boosted morale, the formation pressed forward and launched a fierce offensive against Atletico Madrid.

However, Atletico Madrid's full-court press, even Cheng Hai, could hardly break through with the ball.

His breakthrough skills are 20, not 200.No matter how bad Atletico Madrid's defensive players are, their comprehensive defensive ability must be at 20 or 16. [-]VS[-] may not be able to break through every time.

What's more, Atletico Madrid often use two or three people to defend and siege, so it is even more difficult for Cheng Hai to break through successfully.

After Barcelona achieved six championships in 2009, pass-and-control football once became the mainstream of world football, and even Dortmund has some trends in this regard.

Although I didn't follow it completely, Barcelona's concept of "the opponent can't shoot if the ball is under control" has influenced many coaches and players.

However, Atletico Madrid's high-position press is a completely different stream in today's pass-and-control football.

They used the counterattack launched immediately after the successful press of the whole court, which caught many teams off guard.

Although their own turnover rate is also very high, they are used to this kind of game, and they can immediately launch a counterattack without sparing any physical strength.

Even if some players got the ball, they were snatched back by Atletico Madrid before they could control the ball.

In the 45th minute of the game, when the fourth official raised the electronic card for 1 minute of stoppage time, Dortmund forced Atletico Madrid's players to make a pass error through a midfield press, and Gundogan intercepted the ball.

But when stealing the ball, Cheng Hai, Lewandowski, Royce, Mario Gotze and others had opponents around them, so Gundogan adjusted a step and prepared to pass the ball after Cheng Hai and others ran out of space.

However, at this pause, Gundogan lost the ball.

The ball at his feet was stabbed from behind by Atletico midfielder Mario Suarez who was approaching quietly from behind.

Gundogan was caught off guard, and when he reacted and wanted to counterattack, the ball had already fallen at the feet of the Atletico Madrid player, and he immediately launched a counterattack.

But the Dortmund players were not too anxious, because there were too many scenes of stealing the ball and counterattacks between the two sides during this period, and everyone was used to it.

Everyone just rushed back to defend, trying to stop Atletico Madrid's counterattack.

As a result, what shocked Dortmund players and fans was that Atletico Madrid's counterattack was too fast, and their defense was penetrated before their defense was in place.

It was George Cork who broke through Dortmund's defense.

After he got the ball from his teammates on the sideline of the center line, he didn't break through with the ball or cooperate with his teammates. Instead, he looked up at the frontcourt, suddenly flicked the ball horizontally, and then made a long pass straight through, and sent the ball obliquely to the top of the Dortmund penalty area in the frontcourt.

In fact, George Cork also tried to send a lot of through balls before, but he failed once.

However, this time he performed exceptionally, passing a high-quality through ball, not only avoiding the interception of Kyle, Hummels and other Dortmund defenders along the way, but also sending it to the ideal position just right, which can be caught up by Falcao without allowing goalkeeper Weidenfeller to attack and destroy it.

At the moment when George Cork passed the ball, Falcao also understood the opportunity and succeeded in anti-offside, and then caught up with George Cork's through ball before Subotic and formed a single shot.

Although Subotic caught up and began to push and push Falcao from the side, as a center forward, Falcao's physique and balance are also quite good.

Falcao carried Subotic's push and kept him from stabbing the ball. After checking the goalkeeper Weidenfeller's position, Falcao volleyed the ball from the right side of the penalty area to the far corner.

In fact, the commentators in the commentary booth were already excited when George Cork passed that exquisite long oblique pass.

In particular, the narrator of the Spanish TV station shouted excitedly:

"George Cocker Straight!"

"nice shot!"

"Good pass!"

"Falcao's offside was successful!!!"

"Falcao received a through ball from Cork and made a one-handed move!"

"Shoot..."

Then, I saw the ball kicked by Falcao, passing Weidenfeller like a sharp arrow, and flying into Dortmund's goal against the far post.

The commentator of the Spanish TV station suddenly stood up excitedly, let out a long roar, and shouted at the top of his lungs:
"Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh

"The ball is in!"

"hat trick!!!"

"Falcao the tiger! Falcao the omnipotent!"

"Atletico striker Falcao scored a hat-trick to help the Sheets take the lead again!"

"God!"

"Falcao is amazing today!"

"In the face-to-face competition with the world's number one striker Cheng Hai, although Cheng Hai kept tying the score, Falcao was able to score again and take the lead."

"Now, with 3 goals, Falcao is again ahead of Cheng Hai's 2 goals, and Atletico Madrid has also taken a 3-2 lead for the third time."

"It's already stoppage time in the first half and Atlético Madrid will go into the break with a 3-2 lead by one goal."

"My God, this game is really exciting!"

"Unexpectedly, Falcao completed a hat-trick in the first half, helping Atletico Madrid lead Dortmund."

"Falcao's performance in this game is really amazing!"

"Could it be stimulated by Cheng Hai?"

I don't know if Falcao was stimulated, but Dortmund's players and fans were indeed hit hard by Falcao's ball.

After falling behind twice, Cheng Haimei equalized twice in a row. When everyone was still thinking about when to score another goal to complete the overtake, who knew that Falcao, like the king of the ball, scored again, staged a hat-trick, and helped Atlético Madrid take the lead again.

It just makes people feel a little hopeless.

Will Dortmund never be able to reverse the score?
Even with Cheng Hai, the world's number one striker, even if Cheng Hai also performed well and scored goals to equalize the score, Falcao played more bravely after all, and scored again to help Atletico Madrid take the lead.

If Cheng Hai played his normal level as the world's number one striker, then Falcao played superbly.

It is not easy for a player to score a hat-trick in a game, let alone 45 minutes in the first half.

What is even more surprising is that Falcao achieved a half-time hat-trick against Dortmund led by Cheng Hai.

In the case that other teams can only passively defend against Dortmund, this hat-trick and the lead in the score are even more commendable.

Whether it is Falcao's superb performance or Simeone's formation, many neutral fans have been fascinated, and I don't know how many neutral fans Atletico Madrid can gain this time.

On the field, watching Falcao surrounded by his teammates celebrating passionately, Cheng Hai was also a little lost.

Although the coaches and players made careful preparations before the game, psychologically everyone really didn't think that Atletico Madrid could cause them any trouble.

Careful preparation is just to avoid losing Jingzhou and the fifth championship of the year.

But the actual result, everyone did not expect that Atletico Madrid took a 3-2 lead at the end of the first half with Falcao's hat-trick.

This is absolutely rare in Dortmund.

Falling behind twice and equalizing twice, they failed to dispel Atletico Madrid's determination to continue attacking, which is really surprising!

Are they really not afraid of Cheng Hai's counterattack?
Perhaps Simeone was just betting.But at least, he won the bet in the first half.

After Falcao scored a hat-trick to give Atlético a 3-2 lead, he celebrated for more than half a minute before the referee intervened to allow Dortmund to open the ball.

After the game restarted, before Dortmund could complete an attack, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half. The two sides entered the intermission with a score of 3-2. Atletico Madrid took a temporary lead with Tiger Falcao's hat-trick.

During the intermission, the commentators commented in surprise:

"The first half is over."

"Atlético Madrid temporarily lead Dortmund 3-2 by one goal."

"Falcao delivered an astonishing result in the face-to-face competition in the first half. He temporarily led Cheng Hai's brace with a hat-trick and helped Atletico Madrid gain a 3-2 lead."

"Falcao has inherited the tradition of the world's top strikers coming to Atletico Madrid and has become the sixth Atletico Madrid striker after Vieri, Hasselbaink, Torres, Aguero and Forlan."

"In last season's La Liga, Falcao ranked third in the La Liga scorer list with 24 goals, second only to the peerless twins Messi and Ronaldo."

"In the Europa League, Falcao ranked No.12 in the scorer list with 1 goals and won the Europa League Golden Boot last season."

"It was Falcao's god-level performance and Simeone's high-position pressing that allowed Atletico Madrid to end the first half with a 3-2 lead over Dortmund."

"If Dortmund equalized the score twice after falling behind twice, it shows the mental toughness of Cheng Hai and other players, then Atlético Madrid has not been affected by being equalized twice, and continues to stick to its own style of play. It is also strong enough in the heart."

"Cheng Hai's performance is beyond reproach, he has shown the level of the world's number one striker."

"However, Falcao's performance is superb!"

"At least, in the first half of the game, his performance overwhelmed Cheng Hai. Whether it was the number of personal goals or the score of the game."

"If Dortmund wants to win this championship and continue to attack the great cause of the annual six crowns, Dortmund must make a difference in the second half."

"Otherwise, if the game ends with this score, Dortmund's six-time champion will come to an end, and the value of Dortmund leaving Cheng Hai as the world's number one has also been weakened many times."

"Whether Cheng Hai can turn the tide and be worthy of his world's highest salary depends on his performance in the second half."

"Although his performance in the first half was already good, because the opponent has Falcao, Cheng Hai must perform better than Falcao."

"Otherwise, Dortmund's road to six annual crowns will be over."

Indeed, the 3-2 score put a lot of pressure on the Dortmund team.

During the intermission, Cheng Hai did not enter the dream training to recover his energy.

With his current full physical fitness, occasionally a deep sleep recovery during the intermission of a game has little effect on the second half of the game.

When everyone entered the locker room and the door was closed, Klopp clapped his hands and attracted everyone's attention. He did not blame everyone for their performance in the first half, but praised:
"Everyone did a great first half!"

"In the case of being constantly led by the opponent, everyone did not lose confidence, but continued to maintain a high level of competition and tied the score twice."

"Now we are behind in the score, but this does not mean that our overall strength is weaker than Atletico Madrid."

"On the contrary, as the winner of the Triple Crown last season, everyone must believe that our strength is enough to sweep the entire Europe."

"It's just that in this game we encountered Falcao, who is in superb condition."

"In the face of Falcao's super-god state, even Cheng Hai has to back away and be inferior!"

Everyone laughed immediately, and the slightly dull atmosphere improved slightly.

Klopp continued:

"However, although Falcao was in a brave state in the first half, it does not mean that he can continue to perform exceptionally in the second half."

"The 15 minutes of intermission may be a good opportunity for us to rest, drink water and replenish our energy, but it may be 15 minutes to interrupt Falcao's brave state."

"Everyone has to believe that the duration of Falcao's extraordinary performance is definitely different from Cheng Hai's normal level."

"Unless Cheng Hai is in a very bad state, under normal circumstances he can score two or three goals in every game!"

"Once it breaks out, it's okay to score four, five, six, or even 15!"

Hearing that Klopp mentioned 15, everyone laughed again. After looking at Cheng Hai, their self-confidence recovered a lot.

"This game is like this. Cheng Hai scored twice in the half, which is his normal performance."

"As for Falcao's hat-trick, it must have exploded to bring about this result."

"After a 15-minute break, Cheng Hai is still capable of scoring two or three goals in the second half. But Falcao may not be able to perform a hat-trick."

"It's entirely possible that he won't score a single goal."

"Of course, we can't passively bet that Falcao's state will disappear in the second half and he will never score again."

"After all, he is also the world's top striker, and he can carry Atletico Madrid's tit-for-tat existence against Real Madrid and Barcelona in La Liga."

"Therefore, in addition to praying that Falcao is not in good form in the second half, we must work harder ourselves."

"Everyone has seen the first half of the game. Atletico Madrid's players used all their strength to run and press the whole field, which resulted in the final score of 3-2."

"In the second half, I hope everyone cheers up and uses the same full-court press to compete with Atletico Madrid for the ball, space and opportunities."

"Atletico Madrid want to win, they need to pray that Falcao continues to explode."

"But we don't have to pray to anyone. We just need to do our own thing well, run and press hard with all our energy, and force Atletico Madrid to make mistakes and lose the ball. We can create more shooting opportunities for Cheng Hai."

"With Cheng Hai's shooting skills, as long as the shooting opportunities are the same, we must win in the end."

"Don't be afraid of tiredness, don't be afraid of hardship, this is a battle related to the championship, and it is related to whether we can complete the key battle of the annual six-time champion."

"Even if you get thigh cramps or even get injured today, everyone can't back down."

"It doesn't matter if you can rest for a few rounds in the league, but today, this is a fight for the championship!"

"I hope everyone will use more high-spirited fighting spirit in the second half to fight against Atletico Madrid and create opportunities for Cheng Hai to shoot."

"any questions?"

The players said in unison: "No problem!"

Klopp asked loudly again: "Any questions?"

The players replied with even higher voices: "No problem!!!"
