The Arsenal players celebrated excitedly after scoring, well-deserving of their joy in scoring and equalizing in such an unfavorable situation.

Now that they had equalized, would a reversal be next?

"Arsenal is unbeaten in their last four Champions League away games in Germany, with two wins and two draws..." the English commentator informed Arsenal fans watching on television. "They've scored in eight consecutive Champions League games in Germany. Now they've scored against German teams in nine consecutive Champions League matches!"

Marcel Reif also used historical data to comfort Borussia Dortmund fans: "...Although Borussia Dortmund's performance in the Champions League group stage this season has been less than satisfactory, they have won seven consecutive Champions League home games, a record that equals the club's record set between 1996 and 1998. In addition, Borussia Dortmund has never lost at home against English teams, with a record of four wins and three draws... If we include matches outside the scope of European competitions, the last time Borussia Dortmund lost at home to an English team was in the European Fairs Cup in November 1964, when they lost to Manchester United..."

Historical data told Borussia Dortmund fans that Borussia Dortmund was undefeated at home against English teams.

But for the current Borussia Dortmund, merely continuing the unbeaten record was meaningless. What they needed now was victory!

This goal conceded was definitely a heavy blow.

After the game restarted, Arsenal's morale soared. They weren't just shrinking back on defense; they were starting to try more attacks, hoping to score another goal in a short period of time and completely seize the initiative.

In the sixty-fourth minute, Giroud crossed from the left, and Ramsey stopped the ball with his chest at the far post, while also dodging Schmelzer who rushed up to defend him. He then volleyed it diagonally from eight meters in front of the goal!

Fortunately, Weidenfeller performed steadily and excellently, tipping his shot over the baseline!

Arsenal thus won a corner kick.

The corner kick was taken by Cazorla, and it was Arsenal's center forward Giroud who jumped high and headed the ball in front of the goal again!

He was about seven meters from the goal, a powerful header!

Goalkeeper Weidenfeller desperately pounced, but he didn't know for sure if he could save the ball.

Fortunately, Dortmund midfielder Şahin was guarding the post position. He took the lead and kicked the ball out!

It wasn't until he kicked the ball away that Weidenfeller's hand arrived – if it weren't for Şahin's kick, this ball might have really gone into the goal...

It was really frightening to think about!

The Borussia Dortmund fans in the stands also let out a burst of exclamations.

Giroud held his head in his hands, very regretful.

"Şahin has made a contribution!" He Ping shouted. "His clearance on the edge of the penalty area is really crucial! Ramsey's goal just now was a header from Giroud, and now Giroud almost scored directly... It seems that Hummels' absence really has a big impact on Borussia Dortmund's aerial defense..."

Just as everyone was feeling lucky to have escaped, Borussia Dortmund coach Klopp had already made his adjustment decision.

He asked assistant coach Željko Buvač to call back a warm-up player.

The name he gave was: "Yan Min."

Buvač was stunned for a moment. He thought it would be Kuba or Mkhitaryan, but Klopp chose Yan Min. He couldn't understand Klopp's decision at first, but after extricating himself from this emotion, he quickly understood why Klopp made such a choice.

So he turned and ran to the warm-up area.

Borussia Dortmund could not afford to waste even a second of their most precious time.

Yan Min, who had been warming up on the sidelines, didn't expect Klopp to think of him first when the team was in trouble.

He poked himself with his thumb, asking the assistant coach for confirmation.

"Of course it's you!" Buvač said unhappily, wasting time here when he was trying to race against the clock.

So Yan Min followed the assistant coach back to the coaching bench.

This move was also filmed by the live broadcast camera and released, allowing everyone to see – Klopp was going to make adjustments first.

When Yan Min appeared in the camera screen, many people were as surprised as Buvač was at first.

Everyone couldn't figure out why Klopp would choose a player who had made mistakes before when the team was in trouble.

"Why not Kuba?"

"Why not Mkhitaryan?"

The commentators asked similar questions.

He Ping was also very surprised. Of course, he hoped to see more Chinese players appear on the highest stage of the Champions League, but now, he didn't want to see Yan Min play.

In the last game, Borussia Dortmund failed to win against Arsenal away from home, and Yan Min became the culprit for the team's failure. His performance in and after the game was also very controversial.

And now, when the team is in trouble again, and the opponent is Arsenal again, Klopp decided to use Yan Min again. He Ping was very worried that this would become Yan Min's burden, crush him, and make him perform abnormally.

If he performed poorly in two consecutive appearances, he would probably be relegated to the cold palace in Dortmund... No one would give him a third chance.

So why Klopp would choose to let Yan Min play as a substitute was really puzzling to He Ping. Klopp shouldn't have a grudge against Yan Min, right? Deliberately letting him play at this time, isn't that harming him?

On the Chinese Internet, everyone was not excited and looking forward to Yan Min's appearance at all, but full of worries.

"Letting Yan Min play at such a critical time, what a great pressure this is!"

"Did Klopp's brain get water? How can Yan Min be allowed to play at this time? Letting him take the blame, can he carry it!"

"This is not giving Yan Min a chance, this is harming him..."

While everyone was surprised by Klopp's choice, Yan Min was already standing in front of Klopp.

Generally, substitutions are handled by the assistant coach who explains the tasks and arrangements to the players after they come on the field. The head coach is not responsible for such specific matters.

But this time, it was Klopp who stood in front of Yan Min, not Buvač.

Klopp asked him in German, "Do you know why I chose you?"

Yan Min shook his head.

After months of hard work, Yan Min had no problem understanding German. In speaking German, he could also conduct some simple exchanges.

"After the last game against Arsenal, there was a lot of criticism against you," Klopp said. "But I don't want to kill a person with one blow and deny everything. So I want to give you another chance to prove yourself again. Arsenal is a good opponent, so get up where you fell."

After speaking, he gave Yan Min back to assistant coach Buvač.

Buvač heard Klopp's words next to him, and he grinned at Yan Min: "Jurgen seems to trust you very much, but I don't, kid. To be honest, if I were you, I wouldn't be eager to try this appearance."

He glanced at Yan Min, who was eager to try, and said.

"Letting you play at this time, you will be under great pressure and face huge resistance. These pressures and resistance will make you perform abnormally. But your misery has nothing to do with me, I just need to tell you what to do when you play..."

When Yan Min was being instructed by the coach off the field, Zhou Yi also noticed this change on the field.

Klopp actually chose Yan Min?

Zhou Yi turned his gaze to the head coach.

Zhou Yi felt that this choice shouldn't be Klopp just randomly pointing a name on the substitute player list, there must be Klopp's special meaning in it.

So why would Klopp choose Yan Min?

Zhou Yi glanced at the big screen.

Sixty-seventh minute of the game, score 1:1.

Arsenal's offensive has been fierce since equalizing the score, and they almost scored again just now. In comparison, Borussia Dortmund has been a little depressed during this time.

In this case, bringing on a player who is a bit of a reckless person seems like a good choice...

Zhou Yi understood why Klopp would choose Yan Min, instead of Kuba or Mkhitaryan or something.

Compared with the latter, Yan Min's impulsiveness is really suitable for the present.

After Yan Min patiently listened to the tasks arranged for him by assistant coach Buvač, he was about to go to the sidelines to wait for his appearance. But he didn't leave immediately, but said to Buvač, "Coach Buvač, I'm sorry to disappoint you, no resistance or pressure will make me perform abnormally!"

After speaking, he turned and ran out.

Leaving Buvač stunned in place.

Klopp laughed: "Željko, you were actually speechless by a brat..."

Coming back to his senses, Buvač shook his head and curled his lips: "At least my reverse psychology worked."

"Don't worry, maybe it was my reverse psychology that worked?"

Klopp turned his head to look at Yan Min, who had already stood next to the fourth official. He was really a Chinese player who was completely different from Zhou Yi, but that's what made it interesting...
