Chapter 196 Miraculous Turning Point
Gundogan obviously couldn't fight anymore, and Klopp had to waste a substitution. After just replacing Gundogan for 10 minutes, he replaced him with Hummels.

After playing, Hummels did not stand on the back line, but in Porto's penalty area. Klopp wanted to use his height advantage to compete for the header.

Pereira also ran to the sidelines to direct, and the Porto people began to retreat across the board. Except for Shi Hao, everyone including Martinez retreated to the penalty area to defend.

As long as these few minutes are spent, Porto will be able to taste the top 4 of the Champions League again!It's not just glory, it's money too!Entering the top 4 and entering the top 8, the bonuses that can be obtained are very different!This is definitely an interest that a club like Porto cannot give up at will.

Shi Hao was obviously limping when he ran, but there were only a few minutes left in the game, so he didn't think it was necessary to waste a healing potion.Pereira naturally noticed this, but he was not in a hurry to make a substitution.He intends to wait until stoppage time, and then consume time by making substitutions.

Dortmund changed their tactics and started playing long passes, and after getting the ball with a little organization, they hit it into the penalty area.They can only seize every second to attack and see if they can create miracles.

In the 84th minute, Gotze got the ball at the front of the penalty area, but Porto almost had a bus in the penalty area. He had no chance to take a long shot at all and could only divide the ball.After Piszczek took the ball, he ate Sandro with speed, made a pass from the bottom, and Lewandowski pressed Mangala to take off.He headed the ball, but his effort was deflected off the line by a beautiful side save from Ayrton.

Dortmund took a corner kick, but it was too close to the goal and was picked off by Elton.

Elton was not in a hurry to kick the ball with his big foot. He delayed for more than ten seconds before throwing the ball to Danilo, slowly controlling the ball...

In the 86th minute, Schmelzer passed Shi Hao near the center line and directly slanted into the penalty area. Hummels grabbed the header.He tried to give the ball to Reus, but Otamendi stuck in his position, grabbed the second ball and broke the ball.

Time passed... Dortmund started to attack with all their strength, Subotic and Santana also rushed into the Porto penalty area, leaving only Schmelzer at the back, and their goalkeeper Weidenfeller was almost standing near the halfway line.

Even with one successful counter-attack, Porto could easily score another goal.But at this time, Pereira didn't want to gamble, and the whole Porto team didn't want to gamble, as long as they survived the last few minutes, why bother to take the risk of attacking?

As the fourth referee raised the electronic card for 3 minutes of stoppage time, the Porto fans at the scene had already started singing joyful songs, setting off fireworks, and celebrating the victory in advance.Although Liu Xiyu didn't understand the meaning of the lyrics, she hummed softly in time.

At this moment, Pereira used up the last two substitutions, replacing Shi Hao with Maicon, and the teenager Abdoulaye Ba for Moutinho.All of a sudden, Porto hoarded 6 defenders on the field, vowing to put the bus to the end.

Klopp sat back on the coach's bench and closed his eyes tiredly.He knew very well in his heart that there would be no more miracles, and Pereira was not giving him the slightest chance to steal the chicken.

Shi Hao left the field slowly, and hugged Maicon on the sidelines.Maicon whispered in his ear, "Good job!"

Shi Hao smiled slightly: "The rest is up to you."

Maicon nodded.

The Porto fans also stood up and applauded the hero who scored two goals and brought Porto into the top four by himself.

When the first minute of stoppage time was about to pass, Hummels returned to the center circle to receive a quick free kick from Schmelzer. He took a hasty look and sent the ball to the right side of the penalty area.Demichelis jumped up, but missed the ball!Subotic comfortably stopped the ball with his chest behind him, spotted the latter cross, Santana followed up in the middle and was about to shoot, but was destroyed by Danilo's decisive sliding tackle.

But the attack is not over yet!Royce appeared ghostly in front of the ball, and lightly pushed with his left foot!
Ayrton failed to be Porto's hero this time, he failed to save the ball.

"Goal!!!!" The commentator at the Westerly Stadium protractedly shouted, "Royce, Royce scored a goal for Dortmund!"

Pereira kicked the turf angrily when Royce scored, but sat down calmly soon.The team can still successfully qualify, he firmly believes in it.Shi Hao and the other substitute players joked lightly.In another minute, they can rush to the field and celebrate with the players on the field to advance to the top 1 of the Champions League.

Klopp opened his eyes only after hearing the cheers from the fans, and looking at the "2:2" displayed on the scoreboard, hope suddenly rekindled in his heart.He rushed to the sidelines, waving his arms and directing the players to play hard for the last minute.

"Royce shot! The goal was scored. Dortmund pulled one back," Duan Wenxuan said, "The score became 2:2 on the field. But it was useless, this goal came too late, Porto will be away. The ball advantage advances to the top 4."

Wang Tao also sighed with emotion: "Dortmund played really tenaciously! I really hope that our national team can show this mental outlook sometime."

Duan Wenxuan hehe: "I hope."

Porto kicks off.They hit the ball to the backcourt and slowly poured their feet, trying to kill the last minute.The Dortmund man pressed forward fiercely, desperately and helplessly trying to steal.

Defour was taking the ball. Seeing that Dortmund's backcourt was almost empty, he planned to drive to the frontcourt, but Schmelzer rushed over. The football kicked on Schmelzer and bounced back to Defour. on his leg and rolled off the sideline.

Pereira looked down at his watch, 30 seconds left.

Schmelzer wasted no time, ran to pick up the ball and tossed it to Lewandowski.

Lewandowski received the ball, avoided Danilo's grab and made a pass, and Schieber ran back from the goal to ferry the header.Royce appeared at the landing point of the football. He glanced at the goal and kicked suddenly!

The ball seemed to be passed and shot, and the speed was very fast, and it entered Porto's penalty area in a flash.Santana leaned on Mangala with his body and pushed with his left foot!Mangala hurriedly fell to the ground to block and destroy the ball.

But football is still at Dortmund's feet!Scibel jumped out from the crowd, fell to the ground and shoveled with his left foot!It was too late and then too fast, Elton fell to the ground and flicked the football with his fingertips when it was almost impossible to react, and the football rolled slowly towards the goal post.

The hearts of the 22 fans at the scene were in their throats!They only have the slowly rolling football in their eyes!The [-] players on the field only had eyes for the slowly rolling football!Everyone ran towards the ball like crazy, and Elton rolled and crawled towards the football as soon as he fell to the ground!
But a figure in a yellow jersey ran ahead of everyone!When the football almost hit the post, he stretched his leg and touched the football, and the football changed direction and flew into the goal!His jersey has "27" emblazoned on it.

"Goal!!!!!! Santana's goal! He created a miracle for Dortmund!"
