knife guard

Chapter 656
Leading by two goals equals one more chance to make a mistake. Hoffenheim's players have relaxed a lot in mentality, and they no longer have the extreme tension and anxiety at 2:1.In this mental state, the players are more flexible in their minds, more decisive in their decisions, more relaxed in their actions, and more impeccable in defense.

Another reason why Hoffenheim is so relaxed is that Barcelona's offense is too monotonous and lacks variety. Beautiful, so skilled, the opponent can handle it after playing for a long time.Hoffenheim has dealt with it for more than 70 minutes in a row. Even though its strength is a little worse than that of Barcelona, ​​it can fully cope with it now.

Li Huan's goal dealt a heavy blow to Barcelona's morale. Messi, who has been invincible for Barcelona this season, also suffered a lot of damage. Li Huan intercepted the ball twice and conceded twice. The Argentinian golden boy lost his composure. He almost gave up playing with his teammates and blindly took the ball to break through and shoot. He wanted to prove that he was no worse than Li Huan.Under the defense of almost ten living people, no matter how good Messi's small skills are, there is no room for them to play.

And the other Barcelona players are also in a mess. No one trusts anyone anymore. They all want to take the ball and rush up and shoot a few shots. More at ease.

In the last 15 minutes of the game, Guardiola resorted to his last weapon, pushing the central defender Pique into the front line, using Pique's high point to attack Hoffenheim in the air, and Pique also Being able to use his height to play for his teammates, Pique can play the role of a surprise player when rushing to the frontcourt in many cases, but after Pique reaches the front line, Barcelona's defense lacks an important barrier. If Hoffenheim If Mu counterattacks again, the risk of Barcelona being scored is also greatly increased.

As the saying goes, the army is defeated like a mountain, and Pique can't turn the tide even if he pushes to the front line. Although he played the position of forward, he didn't play well, otherwise he would not switch to play as a defender, and the current Barcelona is neither side. The main players, the left back is Uncle Sylvinho who is half in the ground, and the right back Puyol is not bad, full of strength, and occasionally Zhang Fei embroidery, but his passing is very smelly. One of the worst passing skills, these two wingers cannot provide crosses, and Pique's role is very limited.Besides, Hoffenheim also made a timely response, sending the equally tall and experienced Simunić to mark Pique. Guardiola's adjustment can be said to have little effect.

Barcelona's offensive skills were lacking, and Hoffenheim's counterattacks gradually increased. Li Huan saw that Barcelona's morale was low and their physical fitness declined, so he took the initiative to advance the defense line by about ten meters. Driven by Li Huan, he became more and more confident The Hoffenheim players also pushed forward the defensive line. Forward Ruud van Nistelrooy and Obasi also pressed out, and began to use their fierce and fast press to destroy Barcelona's offense. The hope of counterattack.

Hoffenheim's sudden change in the game rhythm caught Barcelona a little off guard. They were scrambled by Hoffenheim's players. Their physical strength declined, and their movements and running positions were not as fast as before. Keep the distance and avoid being counterattacked by Hoffenheim players in a small area.

At 10:[-] minutes into the game, Barcelona is still two goals behind, and they are getting less and less advantage in offense. Hoffenheim's players seem to have turned into physical madmen, and the madness is in their own half. Pressing every Barcelona player seems to want to vent the depression of the siege in front.But when Barcelona deliberately shrunk to their own half, Hoffenheim's players were not fooled and did not follow, but just started pressing in the half.

But Li Huan doesn't seem to be in a hurry to attack anymore. He uses the defensive line to delay the time for dribbling and controlling the ball. At this time, it is safest to control the ball at his feet.If a goal is confounded at this time, the morale of the Barcelona players must be inflated like a balloon. If the Hoffenheim players get nervous again, the final result will be hard to say. In fact, Liverpool's three-goal reversal against AC Milan was actually only a matter of fact. It took 6 minutes.

Now fans all over the world have recognized Li Huan on the other side. The Li Huan in front is unstoppable, but this Li Huan is elegant and free, dribbling like flowing water, not fast, and the frequency of movements is also a beat slower, but who would want to It is even more difficult to grab Li Huan's ball, because Li Huan's rhythm is very good.Always seems to be able to predict the enemy's opportunity first.

The players from Hoffenheim robbed the players from Barcelona, ​​and handed the ball to Li Huan after grabbing the ball, and then the players from Barcelona started to grab Li Huan again. After the game entered 10 minutes, the game became fierce again. This intensity was no longer the same as before The intensity is the same. In the front, Barcelona attack and Hoffenheim defend, just like the half-court offense and defense in training. Now the two sides compete for the ball. In Hoffenheim's half-court, physical confrontation, technical confrontation, and intellectual confrontation are everywhere. exist.

The Barcelona fans in the stands also knew that their time was running out. More than 3 fans all stood up and shouted "Barcelona Barcelona" in one voice, cheering for the Barcelona players, hoping that they can perform miracles. Two goals, they have the right to play overtime.

Amidst the passionate and somewhat desolate shouts of the fans, the Barcelona players became even more anxious, wishing to score a goal right away, but at this time they met Li Huan, the ball bully, who took the ball as if they had never seen it before. pass.

Eto'o and Harvey came up to grab the ball from Li Huan, but Li Huan, like a fish, suddenly sped up and got rid of their double-teaming. When Eto'o caught up, Li Huan stepped on the ball. Turn around and throw Eto'o in front.When Harvey came up again, Li Huan cleverly used his physical advantage to protect the ball, and moved around, just to prevent the two people from touching each other. The three of them stuck together for nearly a minute before being rushed by the skin from the penalty area. Ke shoveled Li Huan and the ball to the ground with a sliding shovel.

When serving a free kick, Li Huan was not slow. As soon as he touched the ball, he passed it straight to the back of the Barcelona defender. Unfortunately, Van Nistelrooy's physical energy was also exhausted. He didn't run past Puyol, which wasted Li Huan A great direct pass from .

Rangnick has been looking at his watch, and the time has reached 85 minutes. He suppressed his excitement and replaced the last player, Demba Ba, and replaced Ruud van Nistelrooy, who had no physical strength. First, he continued to strengthen the threat to Barcelona's defense. It is to delay the time. Now every minute and every second is very important to both parties.

Barcelona launched an attack again. Messi dribbled the ball in the middle and saw Li Huan coming.

In a normal state, Messi and Li Huan still have a fight. How can Messi, who has lost his composure, get past Li Huan, who is at the peak of his confidence, body and spirit.

Just as Messi made a change of direction and wanted to pass by Li Huan, Li Huan predicted Messi's movement and stretched out a kick first to intercept the ball.Angrily, Messi stretched out his feet to make a tackle, but Messi may not have practiced a few tackles before. This tackle was very clumsy, and the preparation for the tackle was too obvious. Li Huan laughed out loud. The jump flashed past, and Messi didn't even touch the ball.

Li Huan saw that Puyol had received the position in the middle, and Toure formed a barrier together, so he took the ball and walked to the side, slowly consuming time.

Iniesta rushed over from a distance, trying to snatch the ball from Li Huan, but was dodged by Li Huan's smash. Seeing Henry running over from the forward line, Li Huan didn't want to be double-teamed by the two of them, so he quickly dribbled the ball towards the corner flag area.

Iniesta and Henry pursued closely until Li Huan was chased to the corner flag area. Li Huan turned his back to Henry and Iniesta and kept the ball in the corner flag area without kicking the baseline or passing the ball. Or surpass others, just guarding and delaying time.

Puyol was impatient, ran behind Li Huan, and pushed Li Huan to the corner.The on-duty referee Busaka awarded a free kick in the corner flag area.

At this moment, the game time has reached 88 minutes. Hoffenheim's backcourt players did not come to fight for the header, so Li Huan, Demba Ba, Salihovic and Obasi in the frontcourt were allowed to handle the ball.Sarihovic passed the ball to Li Huan. Under Henry's guard, Li Huan made a wall match with the ball to Sarihovic. Sarihovic looked very serious. At this time, he also became a wretched man. Catch the ball to the corner area and hold on to the flagpole, just delaying the time of the game.

In the end, Sarihovic was kicked over by Puyol, and Hoffenheim continued to serve a free kick.

Li Huan looked at the game time, and it has entered stoppage time. The stoppage time is 3 minutes. Hoffenheim has basically won the game. Li Huan's heart was in his stomach. He looked up at Valdes , Valdez's attention does not seem to be on himself and the free kick, but on Demba Ba and Obasi in the penalty area.

This free kick is almost the same as a corner kick. Just now Hoffenheim took a tactical free kick to waste time. Valdes thought that Hoffenheim might not be able to shoot or pass the ball, so he didn't care much.

Li Huan stood in front of the penalty spot very casually. He smiled strangely, like a handsome gentleman going to a banquet. His eyes hadn't even looked away from Valdes. Hoist the ball towards the near corner of the goal.

Li Huan's hanging goal was beyond everyone's expectations. The speed of the ball was not fast, but the unexpected kick made Valdes almost stunned, and he forgot to save it.He couldn't make a save either. Li Huan hit the near corner, but he stood in the far corner. When he arrived, the ball should have made eight circles in the net.

No post, no miss, no accident, Li Huan's shot easily hung into the near corner.Locking the score at 4:1, Li Huan scored a hat-trick in the final.

After a moment of astonishment, stormy applause broke out in the stands again, and the fans stood up again to pay tribute to Li Huan. This time, it was not only because Li Huan scored a beautiful goal, but mainly because it was too difficult to score a hat-trick in the final. Yes, it has only happened four times in the entire history of the Champions League. Only Puskas, Stefano and Prati have done it. The earliest one was 40 years ago.Li Huan's performance in this final was incredible, he won the respect of all the fans.

After Li Huan scored the goal, Lannick knelt down on the sidelines with a plop, his eyes were moist, he kept drawing crosses in the air, thanking God for his blessing, this time the boiled duck will not fly, and there will be less In 3 minutes, he could lift the Champions League trophy, and the excitement in Rangnick's heart could no longer be controlled.Three years and three steps, winning all the championships every year in three years, this is a miracle that he never dreamed of, and now it has happened, he has become a gold medal coach, how can he not thank God.

Guardiola didn't even feel angry anymore. He walked back to the coach's bench with a sullen face and sat down, buried his face deeply in his knees, and didn't want others to see his sadness. The Triple Crown is gone, the team lost He was in such a mess, being poured four goals in a row, this hero is really heartbroken today.

King Carlos also sighed and left the VIP box when Li Huan scored the goal. La Puerta forced a smile that was uglier than crying to congratulate Hope, but when Hope poured him a glass of red wine with a smile on his face, At that time, for the first time, La Puerta felt that the taste of red wine was so bitter.

The Hoffenheim fans in the stands couldn't wait for the game to end, everyone applauded and shouted "champion! Hoffenheim!" Hoffenheim!champion! "We are going to be the Triple Crown!" "

Uncle Wang burst into tears, hugged Liu Yang and said, "God, I finally saw the Chinese win the Champions League and perform a hat-trick. This is my dream when I was playing football."

Ren Feng laughed loudly and said, "Huanzi is great, he's so awesome. I'm going to get drunk with him after the game."

Liu Yang laughed and said, "I'm afraid you won't have that chance. Their team will definitely celebrate for a few days."

Ren Fengdao: "There is plenty of time, isn't he going back to China?"

At this moment, Liu Yang saw Stuart who was cheering happily, and said, "I'm afraid Brother Huan is going to America."

Ren Feng chuckled and said, "Don't worry, Huanzi will find time to drink with our buddies."
