Chapter 314 The Powerful Shot
The game continues!

As time progressed minute by minute with the cheers of the Italian fans and the increasingly passionate "Song of the Madman" by the English fans, Donadoni, who had been thinking quickly, finally found a clue!
The England team has actually changed a long time ago!
It's just that this change is not reflected in tactics, but...in momentum!
A gradually unfolding majestic momentum!
If the Three Lions in the first half were a giant dragon that fell into an eternal sleep and was bullied by others, then after a short 15-minute intermission, Madman Li did not know what method he used to wake up this terrifying dragon!
On the field, the players of the England team showed stronger competitiveness!
Run faster!
Dribbling just got simpler!
Breakthrough just got sharper!
Passing becomes more precise and deadly!
The defense is more stable...and the shoveling becomes more fierce!

……

Seeing this, Donadoni knew he had to do something!

Because, in the face of that Chinese man who can create miracles effortlessly at any time and any place, no matter how cautious he is, he can't be too cautious!
So, the Italian coach rushed to the sidelines, yelled to attract the attention of the disciples, and then stretched out his arms and made a downward movement, signaling the blue-clothed soldiers to be steady!
Yes, hold on tight!
Crazy Lee and his England team cannot be allowed to get into their rhythm!
After seeing the head coach's gesture, the brain of the Azzurri - the Italian man Pirlo, who seemed to be always sleepy on the court - immediately retreated his position by tens of meters, and then began to pass the ball more laterally and backwards, trying his best to slow down the rhythm of the game and prevent England's fast break!

And after Donadoni made a "steady, steady" gesture, Li Tongfan also responded in the increasingly high-pitched tone of "Song of the Madman"——

Keep waving your hands and press forward!

Do you want to be steady?
Pooh!
I don't want you to be stable!
The ace that Lao Li used to deal with the [brain] Pirlo who controls the rhythm of the Italian team is Steven Gerrard, the soul of the Red Army Liverpool!
Two people, one is known as one of the figures who changed modern football, and the other led his teammates to create the most incredible reversal in the history of the Champions League final on the night of Istanbul...

After a lapse of three years, it seemed that they were destined to collide again!
Facts have proved that it is not unreasonable for Gerrard to be praised by art master Zidane as the most outstanding midfielder in Europe in recent years. When Liverpool's team spirit devotes all its energy to confronting a specific person, even if this person is the mighty Pirlo, it will appear powerless!

And in this way, Li Tongfan's plan has succeeded!

Because Lao Li didn't expect Gerrard to overwhelm Pirlo subversively, as long as he can disrupt Pirlo's control of the Azzurri's rhythm, the goal will be achieved.In the Italian team, except for [brain] Pirlo, the other players, whether it is the rising star De Rossi or the unpredictable Cassano, are far behind in controlling the overall situation!
On the contrary, there is an invincible midfielder like David Beckham who maintains this [superman state] in the England formation.Beckham's wide-ranging, precise and long-distance passing characteristics make it difficult for him to be overwhelmed. In addition, England's frontcourt Wayne Rooney and Michael Owen are both speed madmen, and the rhythm of the game unknowingly speeds up!
The England team seems to have finally regained a little advantage!
In terms of on-the-spot command, Donadoni is far worse than Li Tongfan, who has greatly improved his ability!
The whole process is complicated to say, but it is actually very fast. The adjustments of Donadoni and Li Tongfan were completed within a few seconds, so until this time, the second half of the game lasted less than 2 minutes!

47 minutes.

force~~~~
The referee's whistle sounded.

On the field.

In the second half, Gareth Barry, who appeared at the left back position after replacing Manzione, brought down Cassano, who was trying to break through from the right again, with a vicious tackle. The French referee awarded the Italian team a free kick!

A 45-degree angle on the right side of the Three Lions restricted area!

About 35 meters away from the goal!
This position is not suitable for direct shooting, so it seems that the Italian team is going to cooperate with a free kick.Chiellini, Luca Toni, De Rossi, Perotta and other header masters gathered to squeeze into the penalty area of ​​the England team, and the big men such as Terry and Steven Taylor in the Legion did not dare to be careless at all, and quickly followed the midfielder.

Already 0:2 behind, if you lose another goal, there is really no cure!
And the person standing behind the football is [brain] Pirlo!

In FM2008, Pirlo is one of the few super free kick masters who can compete with David Beckham in free kicks!

force~~~
Pirlo stepped back, looked up at the situation in the penalty area, and then started to run...

leg swing...

boom! !

The inside of the foot hit the bottom of the football hard...

A white arc, like a deadly bayonet, slashed towards England's penalty area!

At this moment, the pupils of Li Tongfan who was standing on the sidelines shrank sharply!

Because, according to the FM2008 system, Pirlo's free kick...

in!

……

"...Italy's free kick was handled by Pirlo...Look at this ball...Aww, God!! Go straight to the goal? At this angle, Pirlo actually chose to hit the goal directly? The football drew a huge arc in the air and rushed to the right corner of the goal..."

"Blind spot! Dangerous!! Joe Hart!!"

During the entire free kick process, the British commentator Sester, who was so frightened that he almost spit out his heart, only had time to scream three words to describe it. After he finished shouting these three words, the situation on the field changed again——

Pirlo's unpredictable free kick was easily held by Joe Hart.

It seems that Pirlo has long known that Pirlo will take a direct shot from a small angle. Before that, Joe Hart didn't even have the slightest energy to manage the teammates and enemies who were pushing and shoving in the penalty area, but blocked him on the right side of the goal early...

This scene is so familiar!
In the second match between England and Spain in Group D, Joe Hart once showed such a terrifying predictive ability, easily grabbing Barcelona's [ventilator] Harvey's stunning free kick!
The exclamation of the fans in the stands turned into applause in an instant, and then...

Then, the applause suddenly and sharply turned into exclamation!

"...Joe Hart! This young goalkeeper saved the England team and kept hope for the Three Lions... Aww, a quick counterattack with a hand throw, smart!! This is a rare opportunity. The Italian team had a gap in the defense because of the free kick just now..."

"...The football fell to David Beckham's feet, the captain immediately passed a long pass...to the frontcourt...Rooney!! Great chance for England to counterattack..."

As the narrators said hoarsely, the England team fought back!

A sharp counterattack after using the Italian team to press up and grab a free kick in the frontcourt!
After receiving a pass from Beckham, Rooney ran with the ball along the right side of the pitch. The little fat man's speed was no less than that of Irving. At this moment, the Italian defender Grosso, like a leopard running at full speed, ran behind with his long legs and tried his best to chase after him, but the distance between the two became farther and farther...

The only Italian defender who stayed in the backcourt, Panucci, had no choice but to sprint from the center to the right to start entanglement, hoping to delay a little time and create opportunities for his teammates to return to defense, but...

Rooney has no idea of ​​doing it alone!

At this moment, the little fat man passed the ball just like what he did for teammate Cristiano Ronaldo countless times at Manchester United!

A very simple half-high ball came to the middle!

At this moment, the exclamation in the stands suddenly reached its climax!

Because, as expected by countless England fans, a white figure was in everyone's sight after qualifying, and rushed like an angry lightning bolt!
Michael Owen!

It's Michael Owen again!

It really is Michael Owen!

At this time, Italy's defense had been defeated by Rooney's pass, and there was no obstacle in front of Owen except the great Italian Buffon, who is known as the world's number one goalkeeper!

Stopping the ball, then dribbling past Buffon with a feint or shooting from an angle seems to be the best choice at this moment, but...

Owen has no intention of stopping the ball at all!

The boy chasing the wind in the past didn't wait for the football to hit the ground, and shot directly at the ball!

boom!
Boom!

Then, the net behind the Azzurri's goal line flickered, and the football that finally stopped set off a thrilling net flower...

At this moment, Buffon, known as the world's number one goalkeeper, could only wave his hands in vain in the face of such a shot. When the flying speed of the football exceeds the limit of human reaction, no one can do anything in Buffon's position!
A powerful shot!
In the impression of all fans who know Irving, this should not be the ball shot by Irving at all!
Domineering!

"Michael Owen...Michael Owen...Michael Owen! Shot!!!~~~~GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!! God, the goal finally went in! Owen chose the most exciting way to send the football into Italy's goal!"

"1:2! The England team pulled back a goal! This goal gave the Three Lions hope. The magic power in Madman Lee seems to have gradually returned. Owen scored a goal for the team less than 2 minutes after he was replaced. The efficiency is terrifying. This is the fifth goal of the Newcastle striker in three games!"

"...The one who passed the ball for Irving was Wayne Rooney, who has been suspended in the group stage and did not get a chance to play. Before the start of the European Cup, many people questioned the necessity of recruiting a striker who could not play for the team in the first three games. But Madman Lee shattered all this with today's arrangement. Rooney's assist brought hope of a reversal for the England team, and the Italian team began to get nervous..."

in the stands.

England fans almost fell into a faint of excitement at this moment!

Although still one goal behind, Owen's goal gave them hope again!As long as the man standing in front of the team's command table starts to fight back, everything will look easier!
"...there is only one idiot in the world, you are our madman...you are full of courage and bring us victory...fearless...invincible..."

The song of the madman is even more high-pitched and passionate because of the goal!
And it wasn't just the 2 England fans at Vienna's Happel Stadium that fell into a blissful coma. In the British Isles and in the land of China, crazy scenes were staged at the same time!

No one can stop him, come on, witness the miracle! ——
Uh... I'm sorry, I didn't expect to write nearly 1 words, and the competition is still not finished, which exceeded my expectations. The foreplay has already been pinched, I really didn't expect...

I can't finish writing today, the fever of the knife has not subsided, sorry!

Thanks: Feiyu Hanxiao, Jiugongshen, Mala three dear swordsmen for their support, thank you!
