Chapter 393 The Worthy Kolarov
Edelson got rid of Gustavo outside the penalty area, and immediately made a powerful long-range shot. Li Jiefei jumped over to block the ball. Comper immediately cleared the siege with his big foot.

Hildebrand took the ball thrown by the ball boy on the sidelines - this is Lyon's home court, and the ball boy certainly hoped not to waste too much time - Hildebrand smiled and kicked the ball to Kolarov on the left: "Alexander, let's attack!"

Kolarov took the ball, and immediately a Lyon player pushed forward. From the beginning of the second half, Lyon launched a crazy press in the frontcourt, and every time Hoffenheim's backcourt players always passed the ball quickly...

They must think that I dare not break through, right?Kolarov thought with a sneer in his heart.

Facing Bartos who was rushing towards him, Kolarov raised his left foot, looking as if he was going to pass the ball to Salihovic in front. When he tempted Bartos to stretch out his foot to block, he immediately buckled the ball back, dodged Bartos' outstretched foot, and then moved the ball forward to break through!

Caught off guard, Bartos was out of the way. In the previous 10 minutes of the game, Hoffenheim's defenders would paralyze him with big feet, making him forget that Kolarov's fame is based on excellent assists and free kicks!

Kolarov, who got rid of the opponent, moved forward quickly. His speed was not very fast, but he was not slow either. It could even be said to be very fast for a big man of 1.8 meters [-]. Soon he took the ball and broke through to the midfield.

It was one of the few Hoffenheim full-backs in this game that went over the midfield.

However, this did not attract enough attention from the Lyon players. After all, in the previous game, Hoffenheim's full-backs were almost not inserted. They paid more attention to the defense of Eduardo, Salihovic and others.

Bodmer was defending Eduardo, so full-back Fontaine came up to defend Salihovic, but Salihovic did not break through with the ball or pass it directly to the front forward, but distributed the ball to the left again!
Kolarov who plugged in just got the ball!He can move on with the ball!
At this time, the Lyon defenders seemed to remember that Kolarov was a full-back with a strong assist ability. Fontaine immediately turned around and rushed towards Kolarov, and Karlstrom was also chasing after him, but it was too late. Kolarov suddenly raised his foot while running and passed the ball into the penalty area!
Long Bisheng jumped high in the front to attract the defense of the opponent's two central defenders, and Ibisevic, who was inserted in the back row, made a beautiful dive to the top!

Lloris showed his strength as a new generation of French national goalkeeper. He almost subconsciously judged the way Ibisevic shot. He swooped sideways and dangerously blocked the ball out of the baseline with his fingertips!
Ibisevic thumped the lawn fiercely, and he could save such a shot!

But he didn't forget to thank Kolarov who passed the ball and Long Bisheng who helped him cover, he gave Kolarov a thumbs up from a distance, and then gave Long Bisheng a high-five.

"Now it's our turn to attack," Ibisevic said.

"That's right!" Long Bisheng smiled and nodded.

********************************************
"Damn it! What's going on here!" Puel gritted his teeth in his heart. There are many people who think the same as him, such as his assistant coaches, and the Lyon fans who also gritted their teeth in the stands...

After getting the corner kick, the situation on the field changed drastically. Hoffenheim, who had been under pressure from Lyon, suddenly broke out, and in turn, firmly suppressed Lyon in the half.

At this time, Puel realized that he might have been fooled. The siege in the first half and the beginning of the second half wasted too much physical strength of the Lyon players, especially when they had to pay attention to Hoffenheim’s counterattack.

Their passivity is just to consume our physical energy?Puel couldn't believe that Rangnick would make such a crazy move. After all, if Lyon had taken the lead in the previous game, then even if Hoffenheim had a physical advantage, it might not be able to play a role.

Rangnick is indeed taking a risk. If he wants to win at Lyon's home court, with Hoffenheim's strength, he has to use some unconventional methods. Rangnick has no good way. It is nothing more than giving play to the biggest advantages of the German team - physical fitness and willpower.

Marin's quick and nimble breakthrough from the wing, Kolarov's long-range shot and cross, Eduardo's penetrating pass in the middle, Ibisevic's keen sense of smell in the penalty area, and Long Bisheng's strong impact in the penalty area... For Hoffenheim fans, Hoffenheim at this time is the real Hoffenheim!
Lyon, the former overlord of Ligue [-], has begun to appreciate the offensive ability of Hoffenheim, who has set off a hurricane in the Bundesliga in the past three seasons.

Long Bisheng restrained most of Lyon's defensive strength in the penalty area, and his role was even more outstanding in such a positional attack. If the opponent only sent one defender to defend him, it would be difficult to contain his impact and header. If they sent two defenders to defend him, there would be mistakes in other places. Now Lyon finally knows the distress of other Bundesliga teams when facing Hoffenheim. Long Bisheng's offensive method is not fancy, but it is difficult to contain.

In a collision, Baumsong was knocked to the ground by Long Bisheng. Although Long Bisheng received a yellow card for this, the captain of Lyon had to leave the field—his old waist could no longer bear such torture. Puel could only send a backup defender to replace Baumsson, which made their defense even worse.

The goal kick from Lloris was directly rushed to the midfield and pushed down by Li Jie. The three strikers of Lyon are only about 1.8 meters tall. Such a long pass from the backcourt can only serve the two central defenders of Hoffenheim.

Long Bisheng received a direct pass from Eduardo outside the penalty area. Clark had long since lost any contempt. He kept harassing Long Bisheng behind him, but Long Bisheng was not affected at all. He kept pushing backwards, so that Clark could only retreat slowly. Then Long Bisheng immediately turned around, threw him behind him, and was about to break through into the penalty area!

Clark was forced to kick Long Bisheng down. Long Bisheng fell down heavily. The referee blew his whistle. He ran over and showed Clark a yellow card. At the same time, he awarded Hoffenheim a direct free kick near the top of the penalty area.

Ibisevic ran over and pulled Long Bisheng up: "How is it? No problem?"

Long Bisheng stood up, stretched his ankle, the slight discomfort disappeared, he shook his head: "No problem."

Salihovic and Kolarov stood in front of the ball, one left and one right. Salihovic was the first free kick taken by Hoffenheim in the past few seasons, while Kolarov has the reputation of "New Mikhainovich". Both of them have a high level of free kicks, but Lloris focused on Salihovic.

The reason is simple. Both of them are left-footed players. Salihovic stands on the right side of the ball. This position is suitable for left-footed players to take the penalty. If Kolarov, who is standing on the left, wants to kick, it will be too awkward.

Sure enough, after the whistle sounded, Salihovic ran up and kicked the ball!

The ball bypassed the wall and flew to the lower left corner of the goal. Lloris made a judgment at the first time, and then flew to save it!

He touched the ball, and when he felt the touch on his hand, he immediately flicked the ball hard!
The ball rolled out, but failed to roll out of the bottom line as expected, but rolled out horizontally, almost parallel to the bottom line, and rolled towards the sideline.

The danger has not been lifted.Marin appeared at that place, stretched out his foot to intercept the ball, and Sissoko immediately rushed towards him, while Lyon's defenders rushed into the penalty area, because Hoffenheim's twin towers are now all in the penalty area.

But Marin sent the ball back, passed a ground ball, and passed the ball directly to the front of the penalty area.

As soon as Salihovic gave way, Kolarov, who was standing next to him, kicked the ball!
The ball quickly flew into the penalty area, flew over the heads of the players, and then flew into the goal against the far post!

World wave!An earth-shattering long shot!

"Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal!" The commentator of Hoffenheim's local TV station used five "Goal!"
At this time, Kolarov, the hero who scored the goal, had been swarmed by his teammates and crushed to the bottom, making him miserable.

Lannick clapped his hands excitedly, the biggest acquisition of this season was really worth the money!This is Kolarov's second goal in a dozen games!As a full-back, Rangnick can no longer demand anything from him!
