I want to score two more.
Tears are the Least Valuable Thing.
Yet, they are the most indispensable when it comes to emotional release!
Countless Chinese football fans couldn't hold back their tears the moment Ye Chen scored.
"Men don't shed tears easily, except when truly heartbroken!"
Only heaven knows what Chinese football fans have been through all these years.
Once, Chinese fans used to say, "My heart will never ache again."
But when China lost to Iraq at the Bird's Nest Stadium during the AFC World Cup Qualifiers, how could they not feel heartbroken?
China's hopes of making it to the 2014 World Cup became bleak, and the history of a seven-year winless streak against Iraq continued!
However, now they found solace!
Ye Chen, playing in the Bundesliga, was like a lighthouse illuminating the darkness of Chinese football.
More importantly, as Ye Chen continued to shine, the light from this lighthouse only grew brighter…
After five consecutive hat-tricks, it was dazzlingly bright!
At this moment—
The massive pre-match Tifo reappeared!
A photo of Ye Chen holding his Guinness World Record certificate was displayed to football fans worldwide.
At this moment, Ye Chen's name was etched into the history of world football!
Meanwhile, on Japan's football forums, fans were losing their minds.
"It's over. We're completely doomed this time!"
"Sure, Ye is strong, but he took five matches to score 15 goals, whereas our Nakayama-kun only needed four!"
"I support the comment above! Nakayama-kun hasn't lost!"
"Not only has he not lost, but he's even better than Ye Chen!"
This opinion quickly became mainstream, receiving countless likes from Japanese fans.
Some fans even jumped out to claim that they weren't being sore losers—this was simply the truth.
Because data never lies!
Ye Chen only broke the record for four consecutive hat-tricks, but he hadn't broken the record for 16 goals in four games!
Of course, setting records with such specific conditions was meaningless.
Because the moment Ye Chen scored that penalty, Nakayama Masashi's record had already become history.
A new Guinness World Record had been set!
Back at Signal Iduna Park.
Ye Chen took a deep breath to calm himself down.
He pulled Götze aside directly, "Mario, do me a favor!"
"What is it? Just say it!" Götze responded with a bright smile.
Although Ye Chen was younger than him, in football, age meant nothing.
Only strength mattered!
Moreover, Ye Chen was always mature beyond his years, so Götze respected him.
Even though he didn't call him "big brother," he would still fulfill the occasional request.
"I want to score two more. Pass to me as much as possible!" Ye Chen said seriously.
"Hiss… are you sure?" Götze took a deep breath.
"Of course. Just two more!" Ye Chen affirmed.
"Why?"
"Because Nakayama Masashi scored 16 goals in four matches. I'll score 17 in five!" Ye Chen's eyes flashed coldly as he spoke decisively.
According to online records, Nakayama Masashi had failed to score in his fifth game after his 16-goal streak.
If Ye Chen could score two more today, it would prove that he was more consistent and stronger!
To quote teacher Jian Jun: "Endurance is golden!"
Moreover, Götze was playing as an attacking midfielder now, meaning all the balls would pass through his feet.
"Alright then!" Götze looked at Ye Chen in surprise. A hat-trick wasn't enough? He wants five goals in a game?
This man is terrifying!
The match resumed!
Dortmund was already leading Dresden 4-0, and the game had essentially entered garbage time.
But as soon as play restarted, Ye Chen kept pressing aggressively.
The commentator was puzzled, "We see that Ye, who has already scored a hat-trick, is still pushing forward. He keeps pressing after Dresden's kickoff! Is he trying to recreate his second goal? I doubt Dresden's players will make the same mistake again!"
As expected, Dresden's players did not "toy" with Ye Chen this time.
They immediately cleared the ball with a big kick.
Now, their defense was as nervous as a startled bird, afraid of making any mistakes.
However, Dortmund regained possession.
Götze also dropped back to control the tempo.
He understood Ye Chen's intention, but their opponents had just lost the ball, and their defense was still tight—it wouldn't be easy.
So, he needed to lower their guard first!
For the next ten minutes, Dortmund kept passing the ball around, dominating possession.
At 77 minutes and 24 seconds, Ye Chen charged down the left wing.
In front of him stood Heller.
"Do you think you can stop me?" Ye Chen dribbled forward while taunting Heller.
This time, Heller remained silent, fully focused on Ye Chen.
The next second—Ye Chen made his move!
All dribblers have a setup motion before making a move.
Messi, for example, takes a small hop before his instant acceleration.
Ye Chen's setup involved facing the defender head-on, tilting his body forward, tightening his glutes, and lightly tapping the ground with his toes—ready to explode at any moment!
Then, in a flash, Ye Chen flicked the ball with the outside of his foot, turned his body, and accelerated!
At that moment, he was like a supercar launching from a standstill—blazingly fast!
Robben was known for cutting inside from the right—because he was left-footed.
But Ye Chen was right-footed, just like Bayern's Ribéry…
And the technique was identical.
Heller, learning from his past mistake, didn't shift his weight prematurely.
Last time, he had been tricked and instinctively grabbed Ye Chen's shirt, leading to a penalty.
So this time, he waited for Ye Chen to move first.
But who knew—as soon as Ye Chen accelerated, by the time Heller reacted…
He was already left in the dust!
It was like watching a tofu-delivery AE86 racing against a Bugatti Veyron!
Defender Koch quickly came to cover.
Seeing him approach, Ye Chen flicked the ball sideways at the edge of the box.
Ye Chen's outside-foot touch made it difficult for defenders to predict his next move.
He had three options:
Dribble past the defender.Continue cutting inside.Take a shot.
Koch instinctively moved sideways to track Ye Chen, but Ye Chen's speed advantage gave him a half-step lead!
In football, attackers always hold the advantage.
Meanwhile, on the sidelines, Germany's national team coach Joachim Löw gasped.
He had watched Bayern's last home game at Allianz Arena, where Robben scored a stunning signature cut-in goal.
And now, Ye Chen was replicating it almost perfectly.
"His learning ability is terrifying!"
Ye Chen had no idea about Löw's reaction.
After shaking off Koch, Ye Chen fired a right-footed shot!
Although he didn't have a "guaranteed goal" skill card, he felt in top form today and was confident in his shooting ability.
After all, his shooting stat was 85—not world-class, but elite level!
Among young players, if Ye Chen wasn't number one, who would dare claim they were?
The ball skimmed the ground, racing toward the net.
Dresden's center-back **Bregrel stretched his leg to block—**but failed.
Instead, his movement blocked the goalkeeper's vision!
By the time the keeper saw the ball, it was too late…
Swoosh!
The ball nestled into the net!
GOAL!
Ye Chen sprinted towards the corner flag and celebrated with a kneeling slide—just like Robben!
One more goal to go…
But just then, Ye Chen noticed Klopp was talking to Kuba on the sideline.
His celebration smile froze.
