After thinking it over, Ye Chen chose to dribble laterally.

S-rank skill: Robben's cutting move, instantly activated!

To avoid being intercepted by Alonso, he accelerated quickly and used the outside of his foot to nudge the ball half a step towards the edge of the penalty area.

As soon as Ye Chen cut in, Gundogan immediately made a run to cover... Although running like this would tire him out, he knew that only constant movement could stretch Real Madrid's defense!

You're tired, and so are they.

This is the moment to push your stamina to the limit!

Of course, many times such off-the-ball movements go unnoticed, but just because they aren't seen doesn't mean you can skip them!

During training, Klopp always emphasized that every additional passing option creates an opportunity!

Gundogan's forward run caught the attention of Arbeloa, but Ye Chen didn't pass the ball back to him with a heel flick. Instead, he continued cutting in.

He wanted to try a shot on goal.

But after a quick glance at Casillas' positioning and noting the positions of Alonso and Varane, the thought of shooting was instantly gone.

The angle was too narrow, and there were too many bodies in the penalty area—long shots might not even give him a chance to strike.

Ye Chen quickly turned 180 degrees and used the inside of his left foot to return the ball to Kagawa, who had pulled out to the left side.

It's not true that more people in the box always means more chances.

As the commander, you must always keep a clear head. Kagawa's stamina was indeed running low, but his football IQ remained sharp.

So, he pulled out early, keeping an eye on the whole picture.

The moment the ball reached Kagawa's feet, there was no hesitation. He pushed it with his left foot.

The ball landed perfectly at the feet of Gundogan, who had made a forward run down the left flank. No one saw his movement, but Kagawa did.

Upon receiving the ball, Gundogan was only faced with Arbeloa, and there was some distance between them.

Gundogan feigned going to the byline first, but then stopped suddenly, using his left foot to pass the ball diagonally to the penalty spot.

A cut-back pass!

At the penalty spot, a yellow figure appeared!

It was Ye Chen!

After passing to Kagawa, Ye Chen decisively made a forward run and, with one quick burst, left the exhausted Alonso behind.

But his movement also caught the attention of Varane!

Varane rushed out immediately.

With the goal in sight, Ye Chen could finally take a shot.

But because he had already scored twice, he was now the primary focus of Real Madrid's defense.

The moment he made his run, Casillas moved left, blocking the near post.

Varane also came charging in, slightly obstructing the shot towards the far post!

This is the art of defending.

If Ye Chen forced the shot, it could easily be cleared.

But his left foot still lifted...

"Bang!" The ball was struck hard by Ye Chen's left foot, with a powerful shot to the bottom left side of the ball...

The ball, which Ye Chen had initially controlled, suddenly shifted to the right!

This wasn't a shot—it was a pass!

The ball swiftly passed through the tangled bodies of Lewandowski and Ramos, heading towards the back post...

At the back post, a yellow-shirted player arrived in a flash!

It was Perisic, who had been invisible for most of the match!

"Bang!"

Facing the ball, Perisic had no time to adjust his shooting stance, so he just poked the ball with his foot...

Using all his strength, he also tumbled to the ground!

The ball struck Perisic's foot, changing direction, and sped towards the goal!

In that moment, the entire stadium seemed to freeze!

Everyone watched as the ball flew towards the goal...

The ball turned into a blur and hit the net, spinning mischievously!

"Swoosh!"

The crisp sound of the ball hitting the net rang out unexpectedly!

On the sidelines, Mourinho held his head in disbelief.

Meanwhile, Jurgen Klopp leapt up in excitement, running forward and sliding into the field...

The Borussia Dortmund fans in the stands erupted in celebration!

"Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal!!!"

The commentators were stunned back to reality!

They screamed Perisic's name in a frenzy!

Perisic, who had scored, lay on the ground gasping for air, too exhausted to even stand and celebrate...

He had taken on a heavy defensive responsibility in this match!

He was either tracking back or on his way back!

And because the focus of the attack had been on Ye Chen's side, Perisic had almost seemed invisible.

But if you watched the replay, you'd see him sprinting relentlessly every time Dortmund attacked...

Yet, no one noticed it.

People only saw Ye Chen's brace, while Perisic was like an invisible man on the pitch, unnoticed.

But as the saying goes: ten years of hard work, and fame comes in an instant!

In the final moment, Ye Chen saw him!

The moment Ye Chen played the ball across, Perisic appeared at the back post...

It was a perfect combination of passing and running!

It turned out Ye Chen had been keeping an eye on his movement all along!

The last goal was the result of every Dortmund player's effort!

Everyone played a crucial role!

From the very first throw-in in the back, Dortmund's players had been united as one.

Of course, in the final moments, Ye Chen could have taken the risk to shoot for his hat trick and gone for personal glory...

A gamble that could turn a bike into a motorcycle.

But in the end, he chose to pass!

Because, in the end, victory was more important than personal rewards!

After the goal, Perisic seemed to have been drained of all his energy, lying motionless on the ground, his chest rising and falling. Just as he started to recover, a sharp pain shot through his right leg!

Cramping up from the final sprint!

Ye Chen, who had just delivered the key assist, rushed over to him. He was there to celebrate the goal, but when he saw Perisic's pained expression, he immediately sensed something was wrong...

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, just a cramp in my right foot!" Perisic grimaced, but tried to act casual as he spoke.

Ye Chen quickly started massaging his leg!

Seeing this, the Real Madrid players fell silent.

Meanwhile, Dortmund's fans gave the loudest applause...

They had given everything for this match!

Back home, in the Penguin Sports live broadcast room, it was completely buzzing!

Zhan Jun's voice echoed through every household...

"The ball went in! It's the equalizing goal!" Zhan Jun shouted excitedly.

"Perisic!"

"Can you imagine this?"

"Dortmund just equalized against Real Madrid in the final moments!"

"They've brought the aggregate score level to 5-5!"

"With this, we're heading into extra time!"

"After an intense 90 minutes, another 30 minutes of play await us! Surprised? Shocked? Of course, I'd watch even three hours of this match!"

"Sleep can wait, but such an exciting game doesn't happen every day!"

Zhan Jun's voice was full of rising emotion.

You could tell just how excited he was.

Just a minute ago, he had said, "Dortmund's hopes are all but over," and urged Ye Chen to "keep trying next year," calling the match "a valuable experience"!

But Dortmund's final counterattack slapped those words back in his face!

But that's the damn charm of football!

Until the final whistle, no one can predict the outcome!
