Why Kick the Valve?
Because that's the hardest part of the ball, giving you the most power!
The same logic applies to men!
Ye Chen's kick was aimed from the lower left to the upper right corner, creating more curve on the ball.
To unleash his full power, Ye Chen deliberately took five steps back, allowing for a longer run-up to maximize his explosiveness.
"Bang!"
The three-man wall from Düsseldorf trembled with fear.
But the ball soared past them on the right side.
With a massive curve, the ball arched towards the right side of the goal.
Lataicak, standing in front of the goal, saw the ball suddenly emerge from behind the wall, but it was too late to react...
"Boom!"
The ball slammed into the net.
Goal!
3 minutes 58 seconds!
Ye Chen scored his fourth goal of the match!
Wow~~ That face slap came as fast as a tornado!
The commentator had just said it was impossible to score.
But in the next second, Ye Chen shattered Lataicak's defense with a stunning cannon shot!
Yet, the commentator wasn't even embarrassed by his earlier words!
"Goooooooooooooal!!"
His voice roared across the stadium!
"Ye~~~~~~~~~~~"
"Chen~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"
"An unbelievable strike!"
"Amazing!!! Ye Chen just scored his fourth goal of the match with a Carlos-style rocket!"
"He becomes the fastest player in football history to score four goals!"
"Four goals in four minutes!"
"He's making history!"
"I honestly don't know how to praise him anymore..."
"Too strong!"
"Is he really from China?"
"I'm starting to believe this is divine intervention!"
The commentator's passionate voice echoed through the stadium.
Meanwhile, Düsseldorf fans were left completely stunned.
Some held their heads in disbelief.
Some stared wide-eyed, shocked beyond words.
Some even applauded.
A goal like that deserved applause!
Of course, the most excited were Dortmund fans!
They had traveled with the team to cheer them on.
And Ye Chen's performance today was the best Christmas gift!
After scoring, Ye Chen sprinted towards the bench and hugged Klopp tightly.
On the bench, Wang Chu and Mane managed to sneak into the celebration.
Over at GuGu Sports, commentator Zhan Jun wore an expression of utter disbelief.
"Incredible! Ye Chen is unstoppable today!"
"Maybe the DFB-Pokal is Ye Chen's favorite stage!"
"In the last match, he scored five goals. And in this match, he's already scored four within the first five minutes!"
"And his four goals in four minutes make him the fastest player to achieve this feat in football history!"
"His name is etched into football history once again!"
"But the question is, what do we call scoring four goals in four minutes?"
Zhan Jun sighed, "Feel free to leave your comments on my Weibo and let's brainstorm together!"
Before the shot, Ye Chen had already considered his approach to the free kick.
The famous "banana shot" was ruled out early.
The distance was too far, and the curve was too slow.
Two options remained:
1. The knuckleball.
2. The cannon shot.
Initially, Ye Chen planned a knuckleball, but seeing the keeper positioned centrally, he opted for the cannon instead â a technique reminiscent of Roberto Carlos.
But Ye Chen added a twist â using the bati-goal method!
At the moment of contact, Ye Chen's foot was fully extended and rigid.
This ensured maximum power transfer to the ball, and by striking the valve, the shot became even harder.
The result?
The ball rocketed at lightning speed.
By the time the keeper reacted, it was already in the net...
Impossible.
It was simply too difficult.
In five minutes, Lataicak retrieved the ball from his net four times.
The celebrations ended quickly, and Ye Chen returned to the pitch.
One thought consumed him â I need to score again within five minutes.
That would make him the Supreme King!
Breaking this record in front of Lewandowski felt especially satisfying!
Truthfully, Ye Chen had no strong feelings about Lewandowski before. He wasn't a Bayern or Dortmund fan.
Occasionally, he admired Lewandowski's skills â scoring five goals in nine minutes was legendary.
During his time at Bayern, Lewandowski set countless records.
But after witnessing his double standards and treatment of Huawei, Ye Chen transformed from an indifferent bystander into a critic.
Now, with their competition for the same position, their relationship remained tense.
Breaking Lewandowski's records felt extra sweet.
Taking his path and blocking it â there was no better revenge.
On the sideline, Daniel Thioune slumped in his seat, utterly defeated.
Frustration was consuming him bit by bit.
He had planned everything.
Play weak.
Defend.
Win in penalties.
But no matter how much he calculated...
He didn't account for Ye Chen's sudden explosion...
Thioune stopped shouting. He simply sat, dazed, staring blankly at the pitch.
It felt like a dream... but even after waking up, it still lingered...
No! Snap out of it!
Damn it!
Ahhhh...
It's a disaster!
The match resumed.
Fans in the stands were exhausted from shouting.
They sat back and watched quietly.
Their hearts ached...
But the ones suffering most had to be the players.
Four goals down in five minutes...
It was brutal.
And yet, Dortmund pressed on.
By minute five, Düsseldorf's players were already gasping for air.
Not from physical exhaustion â but mental fatigue.
Knowing there were still 85 minutes left...
It felt like facing an impossible mountain.
