Free Web NovelChapter 501: Chapter 102: Consecutive Victories! Another Hat-trick! The Third Man in World Football! He Can Really Do Whatever He Wants
From receiving the ball to scoring, it took only seven seconds!
Seven seconds!
"He’s just so fast! It’s like the ball is alive at his feet!"
Rakitic himself had been a renowned young talent in the European football scene for many years, and his footwork was also exceptional.
But at this moment, seeing Wang Shuo celebrating on the sideline, he thought, ’My own technique, speed, and dribbling are nothing but amateurish in front of him!’
Hewedes also shook his head. "I thought we could block him together, but I never expected him to change direction again."
But the one who had it worst was Neuer.
He had conceded a goal every time he’d faced Wang Shuo recently.
He had clearly seen Wang Shuo’s move just now.
’Who would have thought he could still change it up!’
’Can you really do whatever you want just by being fast?’
Then he looked at his teammates upfield...
’Four of them couldn’t stop him. It’s so discouraging, a real morale killer!’
Even Raul, who came from La Liga, couldn’t help but feel a sense of awe and amazement as he watched Wang Shuo’s entire goal-scoring process from behind.
This scene was not unfamiliar to him!
Because in La Liga, there was another player with such lightning-fast movements.
Messi!
...
Wang Shuo’s goal in the 19th minute of the opening half greatly boosted Dortmund’s morale.
Just three days prior, the Bumblebees had drawn 1-1 away against Ligue 1 champions Lyon, France.
It was Wang Shuo who had scored the equalizer.
And it was a spectacular goal, no less impressive than the one just now.
Who would have thought that upon returning to the Bundesliga, Wang Shuo would once again contribute such a brilliant goal, helping Dortmund suppress their archrivals on their own turf.
You had to understand, from the start of the match until now, the stands of the Veltins Arena had been a sea of flags. For Dortmund, the atmosphere was like a living hell.
Especially during the entrance just now, the sight of all the Schalke 04 fans standing up in unison, raising their scarves high, and singing their team anthem was truly spectacular and a massive morale booster.
But now, this goal from Wang Shuo had completely shattered Schalke 04’s morale.
Not only did the players on Dortmund’s bench rush to the sideline to celebrate with Wang Shuo, but even head coach Klopp was grinning from ear to ear in front of the away team’s technical area.
In contrast, Magat looked like he’d been completely sucker-punched.
The match then entered a stalemate.
Both teams had played in the Champions League mid-week and were very fatigued.
Furthermore, there was the 5th round of the Bundesliga next Wednesday, and the 6th round over the weekend.
Immediately after that was the second round of the Champions League group stage.
The schedule was extremely packed.
On October 3rd, Dortmund would also have to face Bayern at home.
The pressure on Dortmund was immense.
Magat, on the other hand, made a substitution during halftime.
Forward Edu came on for de Yaqi.
With this change, Schalke 04’s front line became an attacking combination of Edu, Huntelaar, Raul, and Farfan.
The home team sounded the clarion call for a counterattack at the start of the second half.
In the 56th minute, Dortmund launched a counterattack.
It was Wang Shuo again, dropping back to receive the ball. As he tried to dribble past Plestan, the French center-back committed a decisive foul.
Plestan received a yellow card.
Just two minutes later, Hummels launched a long pass from the backfield, precisely delivering it to the feet of Kuba on the right wing.
After controlling the ball, Kuba steadily approached the right side of the penalty area and suddenly sent a chipped pass into the box.
Götze, who was making a run down the middle, was a beat too slow. He looked up and watched the ball fly over his head.
But at the far post, Wang Shuo was like a yellow flash of lightning. He charged forward at top speed into the left side of Schalke 04’s six-yard box. Meeting the ball from Kuba’s pass, he hit a first-time shot with his left foot, sending the ball into the net from point-blank range.
The moment he completed the shot, he saw Neuer, who had failed to make the save, fall inside the penalty area and pound the turf in frustration.
Wang Shuo turned and sprinted away, excitedly rushing towards the sidelines to celebrate with the fans.
2-0!
The Schalke 04 players, playing at home, were clearly rattled.
Just three minutes after Wang Shuo’s goal, Plestan went in for a challenge. As soon as Wang Shuo controlled the ball, he tackled him from behind with a scissor tackle, bringing him to the ground.
The referee showed him another yellow card, sending him off with a red!
Klopp also made a substitution immediately.
Lewandowski came on for Wang Shuo.
After that, the match once again fell into a stalemate.
It wasn’t until the 86th minute that Kuba managed another breakthrough on the right wing, earning a corner kick.
Shahin calmly took the corner, sending it precisely into the penalty area.
In the chaotic scramble inside the box, Lewandowski suddenly emerged. With a powerful standing header, he sent the ball into the goal past Neuer.
3-0!
The Polish striker excitedly ran towards the sideline, waving for Shahin to come celebrate while also pointing towards Wang Shuo in the distance.
This was his first goal in the Bundesliga!
Since arriving at Dortmund in July, Wang Shuo had taken him to look at houses, helped him integrate into the team, and helped him with training.
Both of them played as forwards and were in direct competition with each other.
But Wang Shuo’s treatment of Lewandowski was truly impeccable!
The Polish striker ran straight to the front of the bench and embraced Wang Shuo.
"Congratulations, Robert! You finally scored!" Wang Shuo said with a smile.
Lewandowski was also extremely emotional.
Back in Poland, he was the undisputed core of his team, and the goals flowed like water.
