Fox in the Penalty Area Chapter 470

Chapter 1659 The Four Elements of Famous Game: Fast-paced

In the impression of most people, Argentine star Meli Banega's goals are basically scored by using his own skills to pass the defensive players.

The only difference is whether to pass one or pass more than one.

So when Rafael Fonseca made a pass, the defensive attention of the Madrid Pirates players was on Vandenberg and Serrados.

Although Meli is very capable, he seldom scores a goal in such an offensive opportunity of crossing from the side.

On the one hand, his body is not dominant, and on the other hand, he is really not good at grabbing points.

Only Juan Ramirez noticed Meli at the last minute and rushed to stop him, unsuccessfully.

After the goal, Meli was very excited.

Counting today's final, this is the fourth Champions League final he has participated in.

In the previous two finals, he failed to score a goal.

He scored a goal against the Stan Park Rangers in the final last year, helping the team beat their opponents 2:1 and win the championship.

By the time of this year's final, before the end of the first half, he had already scored twice and scored two goals.

Significant progress!

Excited, he ran to the corner flag again and shook his fist at the Madrid Pirates fans in the stands behind the goal.

Naturally, he responded with wild boos and middle fingers from the Madrid Pirates fans.

But Meli didn't care. He laughed very happily at the curses of the Madrid Pirates fans.

"Nice job! That's it, Merry!"

Xavi Sanchez, the King's director of football, was on the podium, cheering loudly while pumping his fists to the players off the field in celebration of the goal.

At the beginning of last season, when he decided to strengthen Meli and completely replace Serrados, he was under tremendous pressure as the club's football director.

After all, Serrados is only 33 years old, and he scored 20 league goals and 7 assists last season.

Such data performance suddenly made him make way for Meli. The club has to bear a lot of pressure from public opinion.

But Xavi Sanchez insisted on doing it anyway because he knew Melli was ripe and couldn't wait any longer. It would be a waste of Melly's talent if he really waited for Celados to retire before letting Melly take over.

So as ruthless as it may seem, and certainly criticized, Sanchez pushed the team through this transition.

He was even ready to kick out the captain Serrados if he didn't cooperate.

He does not regret doing this, because this is the tradition of the King of Madrid club-the meaning of his work is to keep the club competitive for the championship forever, and winning championships and victories is the ultimate goal of the club. In order to achieve this goal, anyone can be sacrifice.

The team's Champions League championship last season proved that Xavi Sanchez's bold adjustment was correct.

But in fact, last season's Champions League semi-final was a huge hurdle for Sanchez.

If the King is eliminated by the Pirates in the semi-finals, then his insistence on building a team with Meli as the core will be a heavy blow.

Fortunately, the King eliminated the Pirates in the end, and won the twelfth Champions League trophy in the club's history in the Champions League final in one go.

This allowed Harvey Sanchez to break through successfully.

Originally, before this, because he missed Hu Lai, he was also under tremendous pressure within the club's senior management.

After winning the Champions League, he proved to the club's top management that even if we missed Hu Lai at the beginning, we don't have to worry about the future. Because we have a Meli Banega who is better than Holley, even a lot better!

Even without Hu Lai, as long as we have Melly, the king is still the champion!

Champion, indispensable!

This season's Champions League final, for Xavi Sanchez, is a better proof than last season's semi-final.

Because this time it was a direct confrontation between Meli and Hou Lai in the final.

With Hou Lai's crazy state this season, if Meli can lead his team to defeat the pirates who own Hou Lai in the end, will it be possible to completely end the debate on whether the King's missing Hou Lai is a mistake that cannot be ignored?

Hou Lai's goal just now was indeed very beautiful. Xavi Sanchez thought from the bottom of his heart that if this goal was finally selected as the best goal in the Champions League this season, he would also vote for it.

but!

Our Meli has already scored two goals in the final to help the king regain the lead!

Harvey Sanchez has always believed that Melly's talent is several times that of Hou Lai, and his future achievements will be higher than that of Hou Lai!

Why feel sorry for missing Hoo Lai now that we have Merry?

Jesús Valentine turned to head coach Parotti.

After his adjustment, the effect was immediate, and Hou Lai helped the Madrid Pirates equalize the score.

However, the defense of the Madrid Pirates is not as strong as before, and there are more gaps in the defense line, making it easier for opponents to seize opportunities.

So the King of Madrid scored again.

It seems that we get one, and the other side gets one, not a loss. But the king had one more ball than the pirates at the beginning...

He looked at Parrotti to see if the head coach would readjust his tactics and stabilize his position first.

But to his surprise, Parotti didn't do this, but got up and walked to the sidelines again, gestured to the Pirates players on the field, and told them:

It's business as usual, unchanged.

At this time, Parotti "stabilized".

After making gestures, he came back and explained to his assistants: "The fact is obvious, this game has become a chaotic battle. Now we withdraw to defend, and we may not be able to defend. It is better to attack. Use offense instead of defense, use offense to suppress their offense, so that they can't easily threaten our goal... Will we continue to lose the ball in this way? Maybe, but this is the pressure and risk that must be endured."

After conceding the ball, the Madrid Pirates players on the field were indeed a little confused, so Parotti's instructions were very timely at this time.

Stabilize the morale of the army and let them know how to play next.

When the King Madrid players finished celebrating and returned to their own half, the Pirates players were already standing in their positions, waiting for the kick-off.

With the whistle of the referee, Hu Lai in the middle circle kicked the ball out again, and the game continued!

The Pirates of Madrid tried to use the kick-off to threaten the King's goal, but when they crossed the midfield, they were intercepted by the King's midfielder Albin Estrom.

The King of Madrid took advantage of the situation to launch a counterattack.

However, due to the sudden incident, the King of Madrid was not fully prepared.

When Estrom passed the ball forward, he was a little anxious and the pass was too big.

Celados failed to reach the ball, and the football was caught in the arms of the goalkeeper Heywell who attacked in time.

Heywell, who blocked the pass, turned over from the ground, then threw the football to the side with his hands, and threw it to Kamara, who retreated to respond.

After receiving the ball, Kamara turned around and dribbled the ball forward. He was forced up by the king's midfielder Muhammad Osay.

In desperation, he could only transfer the football to the retracement Maxi Carey.

Carey didn't stop the ball and turned around and drew a pass, shifting the football to the left.

Tonini lifts his foot to stop the ball on the touchline.

The ball stopped and was poked out of the sideline by Kings right guard Patin Garcia.

This chaotic battle finally came to an end.

But the quick offense and defense of the two teams did not end there.

Then the two sides came and went, and the fight was very lively.

First, after Ion intercepted the ball from Orsay from the sideline of the front court, he directly picked a pass to the ribs of the penalty area. After running diagonally, Hu Lai volleyed with his left foot directly above the crossbar.

Then Meli dribbled the ball in from the wing and sought cooperation with Serrados to hit the wall, and then shot the far corner with his left foot.

The football was saved from the baseline by goalkeeper Heywell!

The Madrid Pirates fans in the stands exclaimed at the same time.

In the 38th minute, Rafael Fonseca made a low cross from the left to the center.

There was a slight change in the football's line when it hit Moreno's feet. Instead of rolling to the top of the free throw arc, it bent slightly and turned towards the goal!

This caught the Madrid Pirates defensive players by surprise, and the defenders stood still in place collectively.

On the contrary, Serrados was very alert. The closest to the football, he rushed out of the defense and ran towards the football.

Goalkeeper Heywell also abandoned the goal!

Amidst the huge cheers and boos, Serrados caught up with the football first, and he swiped the football to the outside with the outside instep of his left foot!

He shook Hywell who had fallen to the ground!

But at the same time, his shooting angle is already very small, and Celados just started with an extreme catapult and then caught up with the football to pass Hewell... This set of actions has consumed too much of his physical energy. His feet are messy and his center of gravity Unsteady, after barely catching up with the football, forced a shot.

The football hits the side netting.

He himself lost his center of gravity, spun around and fell to the ground...

"Ah! Cerrados! The side net! It's dangerous! If this ball is replaced by the younger and faster Meli, it may be scored!" The Argentine commentator said regretfully.

Reluctantly, when the ball appeared, Meli was still on the right, too far away to miss it.

In the 40th minute, the Madrid Pirates launched an attack.

Hu Lai looked back in the frontcourt and saw the football passed to Carey, and immediately started running.

He didn't turn around and accelerate forward, but retreated first, making a gesture to meet Carey, which attracted Sekairos to pull out from the defense line with him.

Then turn to the left side of the body, turn around and speed up to sprint in a straight line!

Meanwhile, Kyrie just got the ball.

Seeing that Hu Lai suddenly accelerated forward, Sequeros didn't care about considering that Kai Li was the one to get the ball, so he let Kai Li go, and then turned around to chase Hu Lai.

Carey raised his foot to stop the ball and turned his head to observe Hu Lai's running position at the same time, so the ball didn't seem to stop well, it didn't stop at his feet obediently, but bounced up again after landing.

Everyone thought that Kyrie would wait for the football to fall before regaining control of the ball, but he rounded his thigh and directly volleyed at a distance of 35 meters from the goal!

Such a long-distance, such a sudden shot, and it hit the goal frame, forcing the goalkeeper of the King of Madrid, Rodriguez Bakker, into the air and saved the football to the bottom line!

This time it was the turn of the King Madrid fans to exclaim.

"Kyrie! Wow! Beautiful shot from long range! Forced a world-class save from Buckle!"

The game ended with a few minutes left in the first half, but the rhythm of the two sides has not slowed down.

How fast?

In the 44th minute, the Madrid Pirates made a comeback and pressed the King's 30-meter line.

Vukovic dribbled the ball laterally and tried to pass the ball to Ion Martinez on the left.

However, under the interference of Orsay, his diagonal pass was not played well. Kings right back Patin Garcia judged his passing intention, stepped forward decisively, and intercepted the football.

Then Garcia immediately passed the football forward, wanting to launch a counterattack.

But because both the interception and the pass were too fast and sudden, Estrom, who was supposed to catch his pass, missed the ball, and the football leaked past his feet and rolled behind.

It was then intercepted by Juan Ramirez of the Pirates of Madrid.

Ramirez also wanted to launch a counterattack quickly, so instead of stopping the ball, he pushed the ball directly to the rolling football and wanted to pass it to Maxi Carey in front.

At the same time, he moved forward quickly, as if he wanted to hit the wall with Kaili and cooperate with each other.

But his pass was blocked by the referee—because of the frequent transfer of the ball in the small area on the left rib in front of the penalty area, the referee had no time to open the distance.

Seeing Ramirez's direct pass, he wanted to dodge, but the direction of dodging was in the same direction as Ramirez's pass. The football just hit his leg, bounced back, and pulled the ball forward. Miles brushes past...

The king almost made a counterattack-in the end, the king's counterattack was too hasty, and the long pass was off-point and failed to hit.

It wasn't until the referee finally blew the whistle to end the first half that the crazy back and forth between the two teams came to an end.

"The end of the first half! With Meli's brace, the King of Madrid leads the Madrid Pirates 2:1, and the Pirates' goal was scored by Hou Lai... For neutral fans, perhaps the last ten The most exciting half of the UEFA Champions League final in five years... almost the entire first half was in such a frequent transition of offense and defense. As sworn enemies, the two teams know each other very well~www.mtlnovel.com~Therefore, there is no temptation Yes, everyone used as much ability as possible, which led to such a wonderful first half..."

He Feng on the commentary seat let out a long breath, and finally broke away from the intense state just now.

Yan Kang said worriedly:

"But for Chinese fans, while appreciating such a high-level game, I am afraid that they are also worried. I am worried whether the pirates will still have the physical fitness to continue playing against the Kings like this in the second half. After all, the Kings are better at this fast-paced style of play, and the Pirates Played one more Copa del Rey final than the king, and had six days less rest..."

During the TV broadcast, the players of the two teams did not linger on the court. They hurried off the court and headed for their respective locker rooms.

The Madrid Pirates player, who was one goal behind, was not depressed, and the Madrid King player, who was one goal ahead, had no joy on his face.

As mortal enemies, they are very clear that no one will admit defeat until the final whistle blows, so it is absolutely impossible to open champagne at halftime...

This match is doomed to death.

PS, the second update is here, and there is another update!
