Chapter 401 The next game, against the European Golden Boy
Modern centers can be summed up in three categories.

The first type is the dexterous center forward. They have superb shooting skills, flexible running positions, outstanding sense of smell, and very spiritual handling of the ball. They can do unexpected things in places where there seems to be no chance.

Suarez is the most representative of this type of center forward.

The second type is a tall and large center forward with strong physical fitness and the combination of man and ball. He is also very skilled in overhead kicks and can rely on his personal ability to end the game.

Lewandowski, Mandzukic, and Ibrahimovic are all such outstanding centers.

The third type is the supporting center. They have skills and speed, and they can also serve as a fulcrum to attack in series, enriching offensive methods.

Benzema and Harry Kane are all of this type.

But Rossi's style of play is very strange. He has the advantages of these three types of centers.

Although he is a winger in formation, he often changes positions with Lewandowski, and his position is not fixed.

When the team attacked, Rossi did not stay in the box, but pulled it out and moved in the half.

This makes the central defender very headache, whether to follow or not.

Rossi also has the ability to run in from behind, and it is still an incomprehensible anti-offside forward, which can form a single-handed opportunity in the penalty area.

And he has a very strong ability to play the ball with one kick, not only can attack, but also connect in series.

Bayern's previous two goals were initiated by him.

And this third goal showed his "strangeness" to the fullest.

A center like this is the only one in today's world football, and there is no other branch.

In just over 20 minutes of the second half, the two teams scored three goals. The pace was fast and the offense was fierce, worthy of the name "National Derby".

Dortmund, who had just tied and was overtaken again, has not been able to lead, began to show impatience in mentality.

In the 70th minute, they used the last substitution and started a Jedi counterattack.

The high-position press once again came to the Westfalenstadion, accompanied by the cheers of the fans, and overwhelmed them with overwhelming momentum.

At this time, the experienced Heynckes began to make substitutions in 10 minutes, using this method to suspend the game and interrupt the opponent's momentum.

James replaced Ribery.

The match-up substitutions allowed Bayern's midfield to maintain speed and vitality.

In the 78th minute, Dortmund instigated an attack from the wing, and Royce broke through with the ball from the wing.

Faced with two double teams, he did not choose to pass the ball, but tried to pass.

Just as everyone was focusing on Royce's breakthrough, Rossi had already moved forward quietly and stood in the middle circle.

Not only did he fail to defend, but he also looked like he was preparing to attack. What's wrong with this?
Of course, no one at the scene paid attention to his movements.

Therefore, in the eyes of the home fans, when Rossi formed a single goal a few seconds later, there was nothing but disbelief.

Royce, who had been running for almost 80 minutes, was robbed by Kimmich who followed him after passing James and intercepted the ball.

Dortmund's defense quickly blocked here.

After receiving the pass, James hit back with his heel in a very small space.

When Kimmich advanced forward with the ball, he saw Rossi at the far end, and sent a long oblique pass directly to the ground, passing through the gap between the full back and the central defender.

When Rossi went forward to receive the ball, Akanji couldn't catch up and raised his hand to signal that the ball was offside.

Immediately there were boos in the stadium.

Even the live commentator thought he was offside the moment he saw Rossi.

【This ball seems to be suspected of being offside...】

[Rossi single-handedly faces the goalkeeper! 】

[See if you want to fight! 】

[Shake off the goalkeeper! 】

[Push the empty goal! 】

【The ball went in!】

His tone was not very excited, he and everyone were waiting for the referee to call offside.

But the referee Graver's hand pointed to the middle circle.

The goal is valid!

[Eh, eh, eh! 】

[The ball is not offside! 】

[Bayern scored another goal! 】

[GOAL! ! ! ! ! ! ! 】

[I need to play back in slow motion to know what happened just now! 】

[No problem here! 】

[There is no problem here! 】

[The moment Kimmich passed the ball, Rossi was really not offside! 】

【It was Akanji himself who was dragged to the end! 】

Deafening boos came from the Westfalenstadion.

They don't care if the ball is offside or not.

I only know that they are two goals behind, which makes them very upset.

If they lose this game, they will lose their hard-won top spot.

Whoever it is, who can stand it!
In the 80th minute, the victorious Heynckes replaced Rossi with Müller.

At this time, there was no more noise in the stadium, but roaring applause after all the fans stood up.

Dortmund have proud, discerning fans.

They were still trying to settle the accounts before the game, and they were surprised to find that the accounts could no longer be settled.

This night, they were impressed by Rossi's skills.

In the end, Bayern defeated Dortmund 4:2 in the away game and returned to the top of the list with a goal difference advantage.

The next day, the major media in Germany announced the return of the Bayern king with the headline "The Resurgent Bundesliga Giant".

At this time, Bayern fans are very eager to hope that the club can renew Rossi's contract during the winter break and keep him at the Allianz Arena.

In the last two games in November, Bayern not only ushered in two hearty victories, but also completed zero opponents.

3:0 victory over Düsseldorf.

5:0 victory over Benfica.

Not only secured the top position in the Bundesliga, but also ranked second in the group with 7 points in the Champions League group stage.

Entering the last month of the winter break, Bayern's most important goal is to qualify first in the Champions League group.

No.3 Benfica is only 2 points behind Bayern, and their last opponent is AEK Athens.

As long as there are no accidents, they will score 8 points in the group stage.

As long as Bayern draw with Ajax in the last game of the group, they will be able to qualify as No.2 in the group.

In this way, the other teams striving for the top spot in the group can be frightened.

They did everything possible to win the top spot in the group, just to avoid Bayern.

Who would have thought that Bayern is now second in the group.

Now under the leadership of coach Heynckes, Bayern is moving forward bravely, and Rossi in the team is also a highly efficient "weird shooter", so why don't they worry about this.

Even if Bayern can beat Ajax, it will still be the same points.

If Bayern wants to be first in the group, they must lead their opponents by more than two goals.

It is not easy to achieve these conditions at the same time.

Just before the start of the last match of the UEFA Champions League group stage, Turin, Italy hosted the 2018 European Golden Boy Award Ceremony.

Roma winger Kluivert Jr.

Liverpool full-back Trent Alexander-Arnold

Real Madrid striker Vinicius,

Milan striker Cutrone,

Ajax defender Matthijs de Ligt.

The five are the strongest contenders for this year's Golden Boy Award.

In the end, De Ligt, who was born in the Ajax youth academy and is currently the captain of Ajax, won the Golden Boy Award in Turin.

Two days later, he will lead his team at home to meet the challenge of the Bundesliga hegemony.
