i don't want to be king

Chapter 727 Countdown

At the last moment of the game, all the players have already reached their physical and psychological limits, so this is also a period of high incidence of goals, and it is also a special period of miracles.

Amidst the loudest shouts from the audience at the Juventus Arena, the vast majority of the 22 players on the field had exhausted all their ammunition and were fully supporting themselves with willpower.

This of course includes Li Liang.

After successfully breaking through Pjanic head-on, Li Liang continued to accelerate. He strode directly towards the Juventus penalty area without the slightest hesitation.

Li Liang knew that behind him was Cuadrado, who played in the second half, with lightning speed, so he must not stop or even slow down his pace a little, he could only keep sprinting!
Cuadrado has once again caught up with Li Liang with an amazing sprint, and the arms of the two have become entangled!
Cuadrado finally believed the words of his teammates who had confronted Li Liang: "This guy is definitely not an ordinary person!"

He soon found that his full force could not stop Li Liang's advance. Fortunately, Alves had already realized the danger and rushed forward from the right side at a high speed.

In addition, Bonucci and Chiellini also moved quickly, and immediately re-formed a new overall defensive layer.

Alves didn't dare to shovel directly. Although he still maintained a superb attack ability that is unparalleled in the world, his defense has declined significantly compared to his peak state.

More importantly, the Brazilian is very sober at the moment. He knows that even if Li Liang is nearly 35 meters away from the goal in the next second, he must not be given a direct free kick!
What Alves was also confused about was how Li Liang, who seemed to have no energy left, planned to take the next move under the entanglement of Cuadrado? !

Pass?In such a situation where you can only continue to accelerate, how can you find the angle of the ball when you are close to the limit sprint speed? !
Extraordinary?It is absolutely impossible to forcefully change direction, unless the guy wearing the Monaco No. 17 jersey in front of him is an alien!

Alves raised his arms and lowered his center of gravity to prepare for the collision, but nothing happened after he heard a loud exclamation? !

Lippi was dumbfounded, Lampula put his head in his hands, and Gaudino shouted: "God!!!"

All the spectators at the Juventus Arena saw an incredible scene!
Cuadrado felt that Li Liang's center of gravity in front of him suddenly sank, and immediately rose again——

He saw Li Liang jumping obliquely and almost avoiding Alves who was standing still, and then saw the ball flying into the air at the same time!
Jardim and his assistants were all stunned, the angle from their backs prevented them from seeing what was happening, but there was no doubt about it—

Li Liang once again broke through Alves' frontal interception!

As Buffon's roar sounded, Bonucci could no longer keep calm. He watched Li Liang pick up the ball and dodge Alves while continuing to accelerate!
Regardless of Buffon and Chiellini's yelling, Bonucci accelerated towards Li Liang.

Bonucci has come to believe that all the provocation, all the trash talking comes from one thing—

Although he has been unable to accept it, it is the truth - facing Li Liang head-on has terrified him.

Fear will blind people's eyes until it interferes with people's most basic judgments. Bonucci rushed towards Li Liang like a gamble, but he kept controlling his center of gravity and prepared to "catch" the opponent's pass.

With at least two Monaco attacking points behind him, Bonucci concluded that Li Liang must be waiting for him to make a pounce, and then he will send a pass into the penalty area just like he did with Barzagli.

So he seems to be pounced, but he has been concentrating on the movement of Li Liang's center of gravity!
From Bonucci's point of view, Li Liang's whole body is full of feints, and he will immediately fall into the same predicament as Alves!

Li Liang's gaze seems to have penetrated Bonucci, which is actually true. The captain of Monaco is observing the positions of everyone in the penalty area.

At this moment, he really didn't think about what to do. The state of "concentration" had made him completely forget everything.

He will only make decisions at the last moment like breathing!
Li Liang's right foot was about to hit the ground, and Bonucci knew that his opponent's next move was bound to happen——

Seeing the opponent's movements, Bonucci paused for a moment and immediately stepped forward. He firmly believed that right now, Li Liang would definitely touch the ball with his right foot!
Li Liang poked out the ball with his toes and forcibly changed direction again!

At the same time, there was a higher exclamation from the stands. Everyone saw that Li Liang had made a beautiful pass. Bonucci, who was leaning forward, was completely fooled. The Monaco captain had already passed from his right side!
Bonucci's brain was completely short-circuited. He saw the ball pass by his left foot while Li Liang went around to the other side——

Cuadrado, who had always been carried behind Li Liang's back, gritted his teeth and started to act. He went to the ground and was desperate to trip Li Liang from behind, because the captain of Monaco had already entered the range of the 30-meter area!

If the opponent is allowed to get rid of himself and Bonucci at the same time, and several opponents in the penalty area, Monaco, are instantly formed to play more and less. What is even more frightening is that Li Liang can directly attack the goal——

Allegri opened his arms and roared: "Kill him!!!"

At the same time, Bonucci struggled to fall to his back, and he laid his body in front of Li Liang like a sandbag!

Li Liang jumped up and just avoided Quadrado's fierce shovel behind him. Bonucci, who was lying on the turf, got up tenaciously and stretched out his arms to drag Li Liang out of the air!

Li Liang failed to violate the laws of physics and make a second dodge in the air, he lost his center of gravity and fell heavily on the turf!
With a whistle, the referee strode towards the scene of the incident.

Buffon, Chiellini and Alves all ran towards the referee amidst the loud exclamations in the stands. Like Allegri, they saw that the referee was about to take cards out of his shorts pocket!

Many referees are used to putting red and yellow cards in different pockets for easy operation. Everyone has seen the referee draw the card from his chest when showing the yellow card in this game. Is it necessary to show the red card directly this time? !
Buffon desperately pressed the referee's hand and begged: "Li tripped by himself, this is definitely not a malicious foul!"

The referee stepped back and reprimanded severely: "No. 7 (Cuadrado) fouled from behind to stop the attack, there is no doubt (red card)!?"

Except for the teammates who rushed in front of Li Liang, the rest of the Monaco players stepped forward angrily and demanded to show a red card!
After a short period of confusion, the linesman with a better view during the incident has been trying to prompt the referee.

Amid boos from the audience, the referee separated the players from both sides, signaled everyone to back off, and then ran to the linesman. After an emergency exchange, he took out the yellow card again and ran to Bonucci who had just stood up, holding it high.

Then the referee explained to the strongly dissatisfied Monaco players: "No. 7 of the defender did not touch (Li Liang), it was the foul of No. 19 (Bonucci)..."

Li Liang moved a few times to confirm that there was no serious problem. He stood up slowly with his hands on his hands. After confirming it, the referee signaled that the free kick must wait for the whistle. Li Liang took the ball from Mbappe and nodded.

He turned his head to look at the big screen, the time has come to the 94th minute-stoppage time is about to run out, the referee should only be waiting for this free kick.

Then everything will be over.
