Chapter 145 The best way to stop the counterattack(1/2)
"There are ten minutes left before the end of the game, and the score is still 1:1. Both sides are in a stalemate in the midfield and no one is willing to give in. I think that as long as one more goal is scored, it will end in this game, and there will be no overtime or penalty kicks. Of course, if no one can score, it is not ruled out that the two head coaches intend to drag the game into overtime..."
"It is definitely not a wise choice to drag into overtime. After a season of exploitation, the physical fitness of both teams has reached a very dangerous situation. When the overtime game is not physically strong, it is better to end it in ninety minutes!"
"Now Real Madrid has a little bit of the upper hand, and Barcelona has to reclaim their defense - it's hard for us to see Barcelona being forced to reclaim their defense in recent years. They always attack and others defend..."
"It seems that Real Madrid has indeed caused great trouble for Barcelona in the offense..."
As the game entered its 80th minute, the commentators evaluated the development of the game.
In their opinion, the game has reached its most critical moment. At this time, it depends on who can score the goal. If he scores, he will basically win.
So who will score the first goal?
※※ Chu Zhongtian looked at Mascherano, and he was a little surprised that this Argentine midfielder could last for ten minutes.
In fact, Mascherano is really hard, especially the past ten minutes, which is the most painful time for him. He has to find a way to get to Chu Zhongtian's rhythm and not be dragged down by him, and at the same time he has to protect the back line behind him. He is already a little overwhelmed.
He no longer predicts what Chu Zhongtian will do next. Anyway, whatever Chu Zhongtian does, he will follow suit to defend.
When Chu Zhongtian wanted to shoot, he used his body to block the ball. When Chu Zhongtian wanted to pass the ball, he tried his best to interfere. When Chu Zhongtian wanted to break through, he stuck it up and caused trouble for him.
At this moment, Barcelona was attacking. Chu Zhongtian did not run back to defend, but was waiting for a counterattack near the midfield. Of course, Mascherano did not go up, but guarded Chu Zhongtian. If they weren't wearing different jerseys, it would really make people think that Mascherano was Chu Zhongtian's bodyguard.
Butzkes rushed up to participate in the offense, and he was also very clear about the difficulties his team is currently facing. If he wants to reverse this situation, he must score a goal first. He is not worried about Chu Zhongtian. Anyway, Mascherano and Keita are both behind, so can't the two midfielders block one Chu Zhongtian?
However, Barcelona's attack did not pose a threat to Real Madrid's goal. The lack of Villa, the effect of Messi alone in front was not very good. He was firmly restricted by Pepe. Pepe's actions were fierce, which made Messi very uncomfortable and could not even turn.
Messi had to pass the ball back. Iniesta received the ball. He originally wanted to try a long shot, but Xavi called him. Xavi meant not to rush to end the attack, but to keep the ball firmly under his feet. As long as the ball possession is still on Barcelona, then you don’t worry about Real Madrid’s attack, and Barcelona can always find opportunities.
So Iniesta passed the football to Xavi, and Xavi reorganized the attack.
After receiving the ball, Xavi faced Alonso's pressing, and he turned around and passed the football to Buzquez. No one came up to press him. He could control the ball calmly and then decide who to pass the football to.
He did not pass the ball at the first time because Real Madrid's defensive formation was not messy and very compact. He could not find any flaws for a while, so he decided to observe again.
Mascherano guarded Chu Zhongtian next to Chu Zhongtian, so he didn't care about others. He is now on the way with Chu Zhongtian. Anyway, Keita is coming up, and Keita can be responsible for the defense of others.
But just as he was staring at Chu Zhongtian, he suddenly saw Chu Zhongtian running back. At the beginning, the speed was not fast, so he hurriedly followed.
Chu Zhongtian circled around, then suddenly accelerated and rushed towards Busques.
When Chu Zhongtian was in circles, Mascherano thought Chu Zhongtian's intention was to go back to assist in the defense, but when he saw Chu Zhongtian killing Busques, he realized that he was going to intercept the ball!
He hurriedly chased after him, and shouted Butsques' name loudly: "Sergio!"
Bootsques heard Mascherano's call and thought Mascherano wanted him to pass the football back. He looked back and was startled - Chu Zhongtian was killed!
He quickly pushed the football to the right, intending to use his body to separate Chu Zhongtian from the football.
Chu Zhongtian didn't care about that many talent, he just slipped his feet and shoveled!
His control was quite accurate. His tackle foot did not touch Butskes, but slid past Butskes' feet and hooked to the football!
Chu Zhongtian slipped on the side. When he touched the football, his body used his waist and abdomen to cross the front of Buskes. After Buskes pushed the football out, he wanted to pivot the ball, but did not kick the football, but kicked Chu Zhongtian's thigh. He fell down... "Foul! Chu knocked Buskes to the ground like logging wood!"
The Catalan narrator couldn't wait to announce loudly.
But he did not hear the referee's whistle. He thought that the referee's whistle was suppressed in the booing sounds all over the sky. But after a closer look, Busques fell to the ground, but Chu Zhongtian got up.
The game continues!
Guardiola was very angry at the referee's penalty. He also thought that Chu Zhongtian must have committed a foul. Even if he did not hit Bootsques, so what? FIFA's latest spirit is that as long as it is a dangerous move, it should be called a foul. Chu Zhongtian was a slippery tackle from the diagonal back. Isn't it dangerous enough? Isn't it enough to stop the game? During the World Cup in South Africa, FIFA said that he would protect a player like Messi with excellent skills. UEFA Platini also said that he must not tolerate those dangerous moves that hurt players... But now, the head coach who enforced the law in the Champions League final actually put Chu Zhongtian's threatening tackle action over!
He waved his arms and roared loudly off the court, protesting to the top.
Mourinho applauded the referee for making a correct penalty on the sidelines.
On the court, Buzks fell to the ground, covering his face with his hands and lay on the ground in pain.
However, he seemed to have forgotten that even if Chu Zhongtian wanted to shovel, he would shovel his feet... The referee ignored Busquez who was in pain on the ground, but raised his hands straight forward and signaled the game to continue!
Chu Zhongtian saved the football with a shovel, then got up from the ground, and took the football out!
When Mascherano saw Chu Zhongtian's successful tackle, he immediately cut across, intending to block Chu Zhongtian's route.
Harvey raised his arms to protest to the referee, but when he saw that the referee had no intention of stopping the game, he hurriedly ran back to defend.
Chu Zhongtian ignored Buzks, who looked very painful on the ground, and dribbled forward with great strides. He knew very well whether he had hit Buzks, so he would not stop at all unless the referee interfered with the blow and stopped the game.
Butzicks was still lying on the ground, but when he glanced through the gap of his fingers and found that the referee not only did not show Chu Zhongtian the yellow card, but also signaled the game to continue, he couldn't continue. He quickly got up from the ground and rushed to Chu Zhongtian all the way - he couldn't tell at all that he had just been "cut down to the ground like a log" by Chu Zhongtian.
The sarcastic booing of Real Madrid fans sounded in the stands.
"Haha!" The commentator of Real Madrid laughed. "Aren't Buzquez injured? How could he run so fast? Oh, by the way, he was injured by his face, which did not affect his legs and feet!"
The pro-Real Madrid commentator satirized Butsques.
The Catalan narrator had to remain silent when he jumped up and slapped him in the face... It was obvious that Buzquez was just now injured...※※※Mascherano was on the road of Chu Zhongtian's advance. Buzquez was chasing him from behind, and at the same time, Xavi was also returning to defense.
Facing Mascherano's defense, Chu Zhongtian did not choose to drive the ball to break through, but instead scored the ball to the left and gave Kaka.
Then he bypassed Mascherano and continued to rush forward.
Kaka passed the football over, and the two played two and one-by-one.
Mascherano turned around and returned to defense, still following Chu Zhongtian closely.
Chu Zhongtian slowed down slightly and acted as if he wanted to control the ball. He swung his right foot, as if he was about to pass the football to Kaka who was inserted in front.
Kaita, who was standing in front of him, moved his body slightly to the other side.
Unexpectedly, Chu Zhongtian didn't pass the football to the left. He swung his right foot and used a thigh on the outside instep! The football drew an arc and flew to the right!
He gave the football to Ozil!
"Wonderful!"
Seeing Ozil take the ball, C. Ronaldo immediately accelerated and inserted diagonally, preparing to respond to Ozil.
Ozil dribbled the ball on the side and faced Adriano's defense. A light emergency stop and trolled the ball, shook Adriano away. Then he suddenly cut inside and took the diagonal line into the penalty area!
His dribbling attracted Barcelona's defensive attention, with central defenders Pique and Puyor moving in the direction he is, and Adriano is also quickly returning to defense.
At the same time, Keita also let go of Chu Zhongtian and ran to block Ozil.
Ozil was defended by Barcelona at the front of the penalty area. In front of him, Barcelona's players quickly built a wall.
So he changed to a horizontal wheel belt.
Keita came up and robbed him. He stretched out his foot and poked the ball away. He wanted to score the ball by himself. Keita saw that he could no longer stop the opponent, so he quickly squeezed towards Ozil. The thin Ozil was certainly unable to maintain balance when he was hit by his body in this way. He was directly knocked to the ground!
The referee's whistle sounded.
The whistle made Barcelona fans very upset. They thought that Keita did not make a foul, and it was just a reasonable collision. Since Chu Zhongtian's slippery tackle did not call a foul, Keita's this time should not be considered a foul.
But the referee ignored the booing of Barcelona fans and the protests of Barcelona players, and insisted on standing at the foul spot, signaling Real Madrid players to come up and take the free kick.
Of course, Ronaldo's free kick was from. He ran over and picked up the football and stood in the free throw position without hesitation.
"It's twenty-three meters away from the goal..." The straight-line distance between the football was played on the screen. "Twenty-three meters is a bit close to Ronaldo?" The commentator had some questions. He felt that this ball should be taken by Ozil. Ozil's style is suitable for this kind of close-range free kick. He can use arcs to bypass the wall, while Ronaldo's free kick requires enough distance to accelerate the football and then fall suddenly. If the distance is too close, the football has just started to fall and has already flew over the crossbar.
But in theory, who can steal the football from Ronaldo?
So everyone can only watch Ronaldo's performance and look forward to his football flying directly into the goal.
The human walls in Barcelona are slow to build, and the distance between their human walls is very close to the football, so they don't need to be measured and can be seen with the naked eye.
Ronaldo protested to the referee. The referee looked at it, walked over to signal the wall to retreat and retreat to a sufficient distance.
Ronaldo's free kick does not require cover. Everyone knows that he is here to play, so Ozil walked away and Chu Zhongtian also stood behind Ronaldo, preparing to prevent Barcelona from counterattacking. In case this free kick bounces back against the wall, Barcelona can use this to counterattack.
※※※ "Real Madrid won a free kick, the distance was a little tight, but Barcelona's wall was still on the verge of ready... The score is now 1:1. In the 82nd minute of the game, will this become a goal to break the deadlock and decide the outcome?"
Chu Zhongtian looked around and saw that there was no Mascherano by his side. Mascherano went back to line up and snatched the people. The Barcelona player closest to him is Messi. The person who was at the forefront did not go back, but stayed near the center circle. It was obvious that he was waiting for a counterattack opportunity. Messi had speed and skills, and even if he was the only one, he could cause great trouble to the opponent's defense line. And now this situation is much better than making him a center. There are large spaces behind him, which just allows him to give full play to his characteristics.
Chu Zhongtian thought that if Barcelona counterattacked later, he would definitely follow Messi closely and cut off all the passes to him in advance if he was sure.
After entangled with the referee for a while, the wall was finally arranged. They honestly retreated to a distance of 9:15 meters. However, when the referee blew the whistle and signaled that Ronaldo could play the ball, they moved forward in small steps, shortening the distance between them and the football... Ronaldo assisted with a step and directly hit the football!
The football he shot did not go around the wall as everyone expected, then fell rapidly, and finally rushed into the goal guarded by Valdes.
His football was blocked in the first step. The football he shot hit the Barcelona wall and then bounced back!
"The human wall must have not retreated enough to 9.15 meters!" the real Madrid narrator shouted.
When the football hit the wall and flew forward, the other players in Barcelona rushed out in an orderly manner, including the Barcelona players in the wall.
This is a great opportunity for them to fight back! Messi is right in front. As long as he gets the ball, Barcelona can hit Huanglong!
Messi turned sideways, turned his head to watch the ball, and then took the ball forward after preparing to catch it.
He saw the football falling down, but it would not fall directly to him.
At the landing point of the football, he saw a white figure with the number behind it "10".
"Chu!"
Chu Zhongtian looked up at the football. He did not jump and compete for the top, nor did he prepare to stop the ball with his chest, nor did he care about Messi behind him. He just looked up at the football flying towards him, then stood still with his right leg, leaned slightly to the right, his arms spread out, and raised his left leg.
Mascherano in the human wall also rushed out after landing. He did not want to participate in the attack, but to Chu Zhongtian. He keenly realized that Chu Zhongtian might shoot. Although the distance was very far, his previous performance proved that he could not judge it by common sense at all.
"Chu wants big feet to help the siege!"
"Chu is preparing for a long pass!"
