In the evening, when Andy came to the field with the team to warm up, he felt the power of the most intimidating home ground in Europe for the first time!
This is his first home appearance since joining the first team!
The stadium was already packed, with more than 80,000 fans waving flags and singing loudly!
Andy looked around and couldn't see any away fans!
This was just a regular Bundesliga match.
Away team fans couldn't even get tickets!
It truly lives up to its reputation as having the highest occupancy rate in Europe at 98.88%!
Terrifying!
When the DJ introduced Andy, the roar of Dortmund fans was deafening!
This is the "gift" they prepared for Andy!
In the center of the South Stand, where die-hard fans were gathered, old Raymond himself was cheering for Andy!
Andy stood on the court, his heart pounding with excitement!
I will fight here for the fans!
He bowed deeply to the surroundings of the field!
This move garnered even more deafening cheers!
In the VIP seats at the stadium, Old Ann and Tom each held a glass of beer.
The grand scene surprised the old man!
I didn't expect everyone to be standing while watching the game; the fans are so enthusiastic!
For this match, Andy specifically found a local international student in Dortmund to act as his father's translator on social media.
"Xiao Cao, do you think they can really keep chanting for the whole match?"
Wang Ciao chuckled awkwardly, "The fans here are crazy, the best in Europe."
"Um.Uncle An, could you please call me by my full name?"
Comrade Lao An nodded, "Okay, Wang Cao."
The starting lineups for both teams have been displayed on the big screen at the stadium.

After the pre-match ceremony, both teams returned to their respective halves of the field.
With a whistle from referee Graff, the match officially began!
Augsburg, the away team, kicked off first!
The ball had just been passed back behind the defense when all of Dortmund's attacking players pressed forward!
Augsburg players opted to launch a long ball directly into the attacking third!
Schmelzer challenged for the ball with an opposing player, but Sven-Bender controlled it.
In less than a minute, Dortmund had already taken control of the ball!
The ball was then moved to the right wing!
Andy was immediately pressed by the opposing player the moment he touched the ball!
Number 19, Koo Ja-cheol, rushed forward in an attempt to interfere with his pass.
Andy, along with Castro and Gündoğan, orchestrated a monkey-walking stunt!
Koo Ja-cheol looked back at his teammates' positions and realized that they weren't pressing the player he was responsible for.
Sell him!
Left with no other option, he had to retreat.
Dortmund launched an attack!
Two minutes later, Aubameyang dropped back to receive the ball.
He's combining with Reus on the wing!
The two players skillfully maneuvered among the opposing team's four defenders!
Reus passed the ball to the center of the penalty area!
Shinji Kagawa in the middle of the field let the ball slip by!
Castro, following up at the far post, took a shot!
But he lost his footing, slipped, and fell onto the grass.
Shinji Kagawa rushed over and laid the ball off again, but Reus's follow-up shot deflected off the opposing center-back and flew towards the right flank.
A flawless and fluid attack!
This sent the Dortmund fans into a frenzy!
This is our Dortmund attack!
Andy was itching to join in from the middle lane!
But he must fulfill his defensive duties.
Only then can they rush forward and look for opportunities!
Five minutes later, the opportunity arrived!
Andy sprinted across the halfway line and received a pass back from Gundogan in the flank!
He quickly checked the movements of the players around him, and after confirming it was safe, he lobbed the ball into the penalty area!
Shinji Kagawa headed the ball to the far post!
Aubameyang gets a one-on-one opportunity!
His sliding tackle was saved by the goalkeeper!
The two collided violently!
Aubameyang clutched his calf and cried out in pain in front of the goal, and the goalkeeper, upon seeing his condition.
Learn from others!
He collapsed and couldn't get up!
Dortmund's offensive was halted by this little incident.
The linesman only raised his flag after the attack was completed, indicating that Aubameyang was offside.
Seeing this, Pleasant Goat "recovered in time" and slowly got up to return to her seat.
Dortmund's continuous attacks finally got the away team players into the game!
In the 8th minute, number 10, Bayer, has the ball in Dortmund's half!
Faced with pressure, he looked around and then chose to pass to Koo Ja-cheol, who was in a good position!
The latter started making a run almost the instant the pass was made!
It has to be said, he has something special about him.
Just as he was about to receive the ball in front of the penalty area.
Andy appeared from the left rear!
Same sprint, different results!
Andy and Koo Ja-cheol's figures quickly overlapped!
It was like a cannonball hitting its target instantly!
The next second!
Koo Ja-cheol took off from the spot and then crashed down!
Andy kicked the ball to the other side!
The referee promptly called a foul on Andy!
It was a free kick, but no card was issued.
The basis for calling a foul was that Andy's defense was too exaggerated!
The main problem was that Koo Ja-cheol's fall was too dramatic; he jumped up on the spot and then collapsed in pain.
After getting up, Andy went straight back to her seat without even looking at Koo Ja-cheol.
This directly sparked dissatisfaction among fans in South Korea!
They waited in front of the live stream just to see Koo Ja-cheol perform brilliantly.
But Andy's unreasonable defense shattered all his hopes.
[Damn it!Player number 24 got scared, so he resorted to dirty tricks!]
[From the root]Solving problems at their source—that's the approach of Chinese players.
[It's okay, I'll get past him easily in a bit!]
[When it comes to dirtiness, who can beat South Korea?]
[There are Chinese people in the live stream!]
[Hey!Administrator, kick him out right now!]
[If you can't handle number 24, surely you can handle me?]
On the field, Augsburg's free kick attempt failed.
But they still had possession of the ball.
They can only pass the ball back to their own half and reorganize the attack.
Three minutes later, Gündoğan made a successful steal!
Unexpectedly, he passed the ball to the opponent!
It's number 10, Bayer, again, dribbling the ball in the middle, looking for teammates.
Koo Ja-cheol learned from his previous mistake and dropped back to receive the ball.
I thought there shouldn't be any problems this time.
Andy saw it all!
He had already anticipated the passing route from Bayer's eyes and movements!
So Andy decisively moved closer to Koo Ja-cheol!
When the latter received the ball, he had already seen Andy out of the corner of his eye!
Oh!
Want to come again?
When he saw Andy extend his left leg to try and steal the ball from in front of him, he turned around decisively!
But Andy was just feinting!
The real target is Koo Ja-cheol's legacy!
then.
When Koo Ja-cheol turned halfway around to face his own half of the court.
Andy snatched the ball right from behind him!
ah?
He predicted my prediction?
After scoring, Andy didn't hesitate to pass the ball straight to Shinji Kagawa!
The latter swept directly across to the left side of the penalty area!
Aubameyang followed up and easily slotted the ball into the net!
Dortmund lead 1-0!
Fans in the South Korean live stream chat went wild!
Damn it!
