Chapter 3157 Who said Götze is old? This Götze is amazing!
Time is running out.
Italy had no choice but to make one last substitution.
However, this time it wasn't a forward who was substituted, but Lorenzo.
They brought on Di Marco, a familiar face from Serie A.
Di Marco is an Inter Milan player with considerable skill.
Most importantly, his offensive awareness is very good.
At this point, switching to a strong full-back might be the key to breaking the deadlock.
At least that's what Mancini thinks.
Of course, this is also a helpless move.
Italy has struggled to find a suitable striker since Balotelli's form declined.
71 minutes 24 seconds.
Barella in the middle sent a through ball to Keane on the left.
Keane followed up and took a shot before Hummels could react.
"boom!"
The ball is very fast.
But the angle wasn't right.
It flew directly out of the baseline.
Neuer glanced at the trajectory in front of the goal and only made a token save.
Once the ball was in Germany's possession, they started playing possession ball.
Since Guardiola took over Bayern Munich, his possession-based tactics have influenced the German national team's tactical approach.
In addition, German midfielders have sprung up like mushrooms after rain in recent years.
Each of them possesses remarkable technical skills.
It won't be easy for Italy to snatch the ball.
Germany, on the other hand, achieved a good offensive result.
75 minutes 41 seconds.
Kroos in the middle passed the ball to Goretzka, who was in an open position next to him.
Goretzka immediately pretended to pass the ball to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen immediately ran to the left.
Spread out the defensive players.
Goretzka then pushed the ball to the right.
After creating space, he unleashed a long-range shot.
"boom!"
The football transformed into a cannonball, flying directly to the right side of the goal.
However, Donnarumma stepped forward again in front of the door.
He blocked the ball with one hand.
There was no way to clear the ball.
It bounced back into the penalty area.
Ye Chen wanted to take another shot.
But Bonucci, being a seasoned veteran, cleared the ball out of the penalty area first.
Löw on the sidelines clapped and shouted at the field.
"Attack whenever you have the chance!"
"Pay close attention to the position of the leaves!"
Goretzka played well.
But Love still wants to emphasize his tactics – if you can pass to Ye Chen, pass to Ye Chen; if you can't pass, then create an opportunity to pass!
78 minutes 29 seconds.
Germany has a free kick opportunity in the attacking third.
Ye Chen will take the penalty.
He hit a very high-quality knuckleball.
However, the ball's descent speed was still a bit slow.
It landed slightly above the crossbar and at the top of the net.
Time quickly slipped into the final ten minutes.
As the camera panned across the scene, many Italian fans looked tense.
They're just one goal away from victory, and they hope their team can pull off a miracle.
Meanwhile, fans in Germany are hoping that Germany can score one more goal.
This feeling of being on edge is exciting, but it's also really unpleasant.
After all, they were leading 3-0 earlier.
If Italy equalizes or even eliminates them, where will the German team put their face?
To be honest, even if Germany had been defeated three times at the beginning and then eliminated, they wouldn't have been too sad.
After all, Löw had already given them a heads-up.
But we cannot be eliminated now—
At least that's what the vast majority of German fans think!
The sunset is as beautiful as you~
81 minutes 19 seconds.
Italy's right side bottom line.
Di Marco receives a pass from Chiesa.
The former swept the ball directly into the penalty area.
But the effect of Löw replacing Hummels became apparent.
The ball had just reached the center of the penalty area when Hummels cleared it with a long kick!
85 minutes 19 seconds.
Italy gets a corner kick.
Barella takes the penalty.
The ball was sent directly to the near post.
However, the person standing at the front right now was Goretzka.
Goretzka is 189cm tall... When it comes to scoring, height is a hard and fast rule.
"Boom!"
After jumping, he used his core muscles to generate power.
He headed the ball directly into the open area on the right.
The area on the right is Götze's zone!
He's been waiting for his chance.
Seeing the direction of the ball, Götze immediately started his run and dribbled the ball forward.
In this corner kick defense, Italy left Di Marco and Emerson to defend at the back.
Götze has the ball; someone has to score.
Dimarco was sticking to Ye Chen, so Emerson had to go over there.
But Götze didn't slow down after getting the ball; instead, he strode forward and pushed the ball into the middle of the opponent's half.
The Italian players behind them were also chasing back at high speed.
Götze does not have an absolute advantage.
Just when everyone thought Götze was going to reorganize, or even delay the process.
Götze suddenly passed the ball into the penalty area.
The scene seemed to freeze for a moment.
Ye Chen, who had been running forward, quickly ran onto the trajectory of the rolling football.
As he planted his left foot, he braced himself against Dimarco behind him.
Donnarumma, in front of the goal, also rushed out quickly.
"Oh!"
But Ye Chen didn't give him a chance!
He swung his right foot and shot the ball towards the far corner.
Although Donnarumma reacted quickly, he could only make instinctive saves when faced with such a high-quality shot.
But the football had already darted past his right side...
"Shua~~~"
"Goooooooooal!!!"
The on-site commentators instantly erupted in excitement.
German fans finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Wear fluffy clothes in winter!
Löw on the sidelines was excitedly waving his fists.
When he called up Götze before, many people on the internet criticized him, saying that Götze's ability was not worthy of the current German team.
But what did Löw say?
"Who said Götze is old? This Götze is amazing!"
"Besides, am I the German coach or are you the German coaches? If you're so good, then you do it; if not, shut up!"
For Löw, finding a way to make Ye Chen comfortable playing is the most crucial thing.
The reason for calling up Götze this time is very simple—just consider it a free trip to Italy.
After this game, the team will also organize some activities.
Go to this fashion capital to stroll around and do some shopping.
And Götze's pass is the best proof of that.
He is still capable.
Most importantly, he was familiar with Ye Chen's positioning and had excellent teamwork with him.
That pass was perfect.
Ye Chen also released some of his inner tension by performing a celebratory gesture of drawing a bow and shooting an eagle on the sidelines.
National team matches are still easier to play.
Everyone here is an acquaintance, and their skill level is top-notch.
Even against a strong team like Italy, they have nothing to fear.
The score on the big screen changed again: Italy 2-4 Germany.
After the score difference returned to two goals, Italy's comeback efforts noticeably weakened.
But no one expected that there would be a goal in this match!
95 minutes 42 seconds.
Italy's last-minute cross came from Di Marco, but the ball struck the hand of defender Marquez.
They were awarded their second penalty of the match.
Chiesa took the penalty.
Without hesitation, Chiesa unleashed a powerful shot into the bottom left corner.
The ball went into the net, changing the score again to Italy 3-4 Germany.
However, after that goal, the game time was up.
The referee did not add any more stoppage time and blew the final whistle to end the match immediately...
Although Italy lost the game at home and failed to qualify for the final, their opponent is Germany!
Moreover, they were able to put up a good fight against the German team, with the score difference being only one goal.
Isn't this a kind of success?
