Rebirth 1994: Football Situation

Chapter 735 The Final Contest
"Long pass near the middle circle! Ronaldinho seems to be a little impatient, and this kind of long pass seems to be more blind... Oh! No, a wonderful long pass!"

The startled voice of the ESPN commentator seems to explain the situation on the field. After Ronaldinho's pass flew across the midfield, all the fans on the scene, including the fans in front of the TV, have already seen it. It happened to catch a tiny loophole in Newcastle, which happened to fall between Dawson and Maicon!
And Eto'o was running towards the landing point of the ball, the Cameroon cheetah running at full speed and Ronaldinho's pass just in time, when the ball fell, it was when Eto'o rushed to the landing point!
Dawson rushed over from the side, but seeing the speed of the ball falling, it was difficult for Dawson to stop Eto'o's shot.

But the situation is not that bad. If Eto'o chooses to stop the ball, Dawson can immediately entangle him, and there are several Newcastle defenders nearby, but the distance is farther than Dawson. Just a little bit, even if Eto'o shoots, it may not be able to break through Cech's ten fingers at this distance.

Since joining this season, the Czech goalkeeper has made countless wonderful saves, making Newcastle's defense stronger. Both the coach and the fans have great confidence in him.

but……

Eto'o didn't stop the ball and volleyed from the far corner with his right foot!

The ball flew past Dawson's face, and the wind caused by the flying ball made Dawson feel pain in his cheek!
In order to prevent Eto'o's shot from a close angle, Cech stood close to the near post. Eto'o's shot was quite fast. He didn't have time to retreat, so he could only jump high and stretch out one hand as much as possible. Long, going to hold the ball out of the post!
With Petr Cech's height of 1.9 meters [-], plus the distance of jumping upwards and the distance of extending his hands, if he can't touch the ball in this way, then the ball will definitely fly out of the baseline!
Cech did not touch the ball!The ball almost brushed his middle finger and flew behind him!
Cech tried his best to look back, hoping to see the scene where the ball flew out of the baseline.

But this look made him feel chills all over - after the ball flew over his head, it suddenly fell strongly!

When Eto'o shot the goal, he added an upward force to "pull", and the ball formed a violent rotation, which made the ball fall violently after flying in the air for a certain distance!
This is not a skill that is particularly difficult to master. Basically, professional players can shoot such a shot, but like Eto'o, receiving a long pass from 30 meters away and volleying directly without stopping the ball requires not only skill, but also It takes a little luck!Because the angle of contact with the ball and the strength of the shot are slightly deviated, this is a vacancy that skills cannot fill.

Under the watchful eyes of all the fans, the ball fell just right, hit obliquely at the junction of the beam and the column, and then bounced into the goal!

Eto'o's second goal in two legs!

At the moment when the ball hit the net, whether it was the Barcelona fans at the scene or those far away in Spain, as well as other substitute players and coaches of the Barcelona club on the bench, they all jumped up at the same time. Only cheers!

The huge cheers verified from the side that Barcelona's goal was hard-won.

Seeing Eto'o surrounded by other Barcelona players, Dawson couldn't help spitting on the ground, and then said angrily: "Isn't it just a goal? What's the big deal! We scored two goals. I've never been this happy before, I'm so fucking ignorant!"

After all, Dawson knew very well in his heart, and the other Newcastle players also knew that the meaning of this goal to this game has surpassed the goal itself.

Newcastle's advantage was left with only one goal - to be precise, half a goal. This score was maintained until the end. Newcastle won, Barcelona scored another goal, Barcelona won. Have the opportunity.

Regarding this, everyone present, everyone who watched the game, knew it well.

"A wonderful world wave... Although there is some luck, but no one can deny that Barcelona has rekindled hope, and this hope is so close to them, it seems that they can pick it up... With 23 minutes to go, the game was once again in suspense and waves. For Newcastle fans they will not be happy to see this situation, but for all neutral fans, this goal means that the game Will re-enter suspense and excitement!"

****************************************
After the game restarted, the Barcelona players began to get excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood-hope has always been the biggest factor that promotes human rise.

Newcastle's players tried to control the ball in the midfield and wear down the opponent's spirit. In all fairness, this strategy is very good. Unfortunately, on the football field, examples of mental strength surpassing physical strength are not uncommon.

Just like now, the Barcelona players are obviously very tired, but after the re-kick-off, their fatigue has been thrown into the sky, and the movements of each one are as vigorous as if the game has just started!
Originally, Newcastle had to have an advantage in terms of physical fitness. They had played one game less than Barcelona before this game, and they were still sitting at home, waiting for Barcelona to come from Spain. But in this situation Now, this little advantage no longer exists.

All the players in Barcelona launched a full-court press like crazy tigers. Although their players are mainly offensive players, as professional players, these offensive players are just not good at defending, not knowing how to defend!
After 1 minute, they grabbed the ball and launched a counterattack!
"Don't retreat in a hurry! Steal on the spot in the frontcourt! Keep an eye on your own people!" Lucio shouted loudly. He is the most experienced person in Newcastle's defense line. He knows very well that with Barcelona's current momentum , even if all Newcastle members return to defense, they may be ripped open by the opponent abruptly!
"We're in a bit of trouble." Pei Wei muttered to himself, staring at the court.

Now the game has reached the most critical moment. Although there is still enough time before the end of the game, Barcelona did not wait until the last moment to launch a violent attack, but launched a desperate attack at this moment!

"This guy really has a set! He knows exactly what Barcelona needs!"

Mourinho set his sights on Rijkaard. This Dutchman has the same factor in his body as Barcelona, ​​which is madness, madness at all costs!I'd rather be broken jade than crazy madness!
"He and Barcelona really complement each other..." Mourinho, who has been in Barcelona for five years, knows clearly that if Real Madrid represents the king of Spain, elegant and powerful, then Barcelona is the persistent resister, tragic and heroic. honourable!

The Catalans, who have always dreamed of independence, and Barcelona, ​​who have been fighting against Real Madrid, have the same soul!

Mourinho did not direct the players to defend, because he knew that at this time, the off-court guidance is secondary, and the most important thing is to see the players' performance in the game-if they can withstand this wave of Barcelona's offense, Then the track of the game returned to Newcastle's control.

Because Barcelona has reached the end of the battle, and it is all because of the goal just now. If they can take advantage of the situation to equalize the score, then the fighting spirit they have inspired is enough for them to support until the end of the game. If they cannot score, then the fatigue will be doubled Back to them—the so-called exhaustion in one go, and decline in three is the truth.

The question now is, can Newcastle's players withstand Barcelona's desperate attack?
Mourinho chooses to believe in his players!Because each of them was personally selected by him and Pei Wei, players who fit his tactics!Everyone has a tough nerve, and an indomitable spirit!
Although they are also human beings, they will also be affected by emotions, but Mourinho believes that after such arduous training, emotional agitation will definitely not affect them so much!

Ibrahimovic, Nie Fei, and Shearer, these three offensive players immediately began to fight for their physical fitness in the frontcourt. Although they were not able to intercept the ball in front of the delicate skills of the Barcelona players, they also delayed Barcelona. Attack speed!

Thanks to their efforts, the other Newcastle players who hastily retreated have set up a tight defensive formation in the backcourt. Every Barcelona player is surrounded by Newcastle defenders!

Mourinho let out a sigh of relief, his players did not disappoint him, at least Barcelona could not easily break through such a defense, posing a fatal threat to the gate guarded by Petr Cech.

Goals like Eto'o just now cannot always appear!In the case of only one goal, Barcelona players will not use such a risky way to end the attack!
Since the opponent's quick attack did not work, the next step is to see if Newcastle can withstand Barcelona's attack from this position!
This will be the most important contest in the two rounds!Whoever is more patient will not only win this contest, but also win the final victory of the two rounds!
Those who lose will have no chance to regain the situation, because this is the second round of the game. When Newcastle scored the second goal of the game, the balance of the game had already been broken. Within 10 minutes, a team must be eliminated!

The suspense will not continue into overtime and penalty shootouts!
