Jagged Wings

Chapter 136 "Head" opens the record!

Reyes dribbles the ball down the wing and finds a guy in front of him stuck in his path.Since having a little communication with the little caddy, Reyes suddenly became less nervous, and now his attention was focused on the game.

Italy's defense is famous all over the world, so Reyes also played [-] points.The player in front of him is Italian midfielder Simeone Perotta.

Perotta is a late-blooming defensive midfielder with excellent skills and stealing ability. Although he is a right midfielder, he is running all over the field and even successfully fills in for Gruso who has made assists many times.Perotta has jumped from a marginal international to the absolute main force of the national team. Thanks to his state and the flexibility of the midfield, he can play in many positions, which can meet the various needs of the coach.For example, against Ghana and the United States, his position is on the right, against the Czech Republic and Australia, on the left, and against Ukraine, he is a little bit left-winger.

Compared with Gattuso, who is fierce and brave, Perotta is obviously more patient.

The two are approaching.

Through pre-match understanding, Perotta knew that Reyes was a very fast player.Facing such a player, we should try our best not to let him accelerate.

Faced with Reyes' advance, Perotta knew that his skills were not as good as his, so he retreated a bit, and then followed Reyes to the baseline.

Reyes thought that Perotta would follow him closely, but at the same time that Perotta let him pass by, his body suddenly leaned up. Now the two are facing the same direction and are entangled with each other.

Reyes felt the pressure from the opponent, and his speed also dropped.No way, in order to maintain control of the ball, the speed must be reduced, because Reyes obviously felt that if he fought the opponent with speed in a physical confrontation, he might not be able to win.Under such circumstances, Reyes' technical advantages were also compressed to the minimum.Reyes couldn't help thinking, Italy's defense is really extraordinary!
But do you think you can stop me like this?you are wrong!Big mistake!

Reyes raised his left hand, then stopped the football on the outside of his right foot, and turned his body over at the same time!

Perotta didn't expect Reyes' brakes to be applied so suddenly, leaving him unprepared. He lost his center of gravity in shock and fell forward.

The Spanish fans in the stands clamored loudly, now is an excellent opportunity!

Spanish Prime Minister Zapatello also smiled and applauded the outstanding performance of his players.

Reyes bypassed the fallen Perrotta, and then kicked a 45-degree cross when he was close to the penalty area. Full-back Zambrotta was still in the backcourt and did not come up to help.

Torres knew that the ball was for him, and Villa, who was 1 meters tall, was obviously more suitable for receiving low-level balls.So when Reyes knocked Perrotta down, he started to move towards the opponent's goal, but he soon found that his movement was very strenuous and difficult.The reason is the Italian central defender in front of him, Materazzi, who is 75 meters tall.The Italian defender firmly blocked the 1-meter-tall Torres outside, and the pass was finally obtained by goalkeeper Buffon.

Torres also tasted the taste of an Italian defender for the first time: it is really hard!

However, there is a sense of accomplishment in defeating such a defense!

In the next game, Torres got some opportunities to confront Materazzi.Obviously, compared to Cannavaro, who is only 1 meters tall, Materazzi has more capital to defend Torres.In front of the Inter Milan defender, Torres obviously does not take much advantage.

But the game is not a personal confrontation, and it is obviously not good to hit the opponent head-on, so Torres started to wander around, looking for opportunities.

**********
Buffon launched the attack with a tossed ball, Cannavaro laid the ball to Pirlo, who unloaded the ball beautifully, and then advanced towards the Spanish half.But he soon found that it was a little troublesome for him to enter the opponent's 30-meter area, and Xiaofa quickly leaned forward.

Pirlo slowed down, he was not in a hurry to fight back, and Totti seemed to be unable to get rid of the opponent's defender's man-to-man defense in front.

The forward route was blocked, but Pirlo was not restrained, he raised his head to observe.

Xiaofa suddenly found that Pirlo was stepping on the ball with his foot, and gently pulled it back, as if waiting for someone.Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the Italian right, and Camoranesi was rushing up at high speed.

"Oops! Pay attention to the one on the left..." Xiaofa couldn't help shouting, just when he turned his head to remind his teammates, Pirlo smiled slightly, swiped the ball in the opposite direction, and bypassed Xiaofa!
Immediately after Pirlo took a long shot, the football flew towards the gate guarded by Casillas!Casillas pressed down and caught the incoming ball firmly in his arms.

***********
Although it is the main wing, the two teams really fly only on the left side of Spain, that is, the right side of Italy.On the other side, Spain's Senna faced Gattuso. The appearance of the two midfielders strengthened the strength of their respective midfielders, and at the same time turned the other side into a meat grinder.

Although Spain's wing attack is extremely sharp, Italy's wing is not bad. Grosso, who plays for Inter Milan, is a full-back who is very good at attacking. Left-back Grosso and right-back Zambrotta, the two full-backs who are good at assisting, stayed behind obediently, stepping forward to assist as little as possible.

This arrangement made Grosso somewhat uncomfortable. He was the hero who won a penalty kick for the team at the last moment in the quarter-finals and beat Germany in the semi-finals. He was even called "" "Great Italian left-back" with "spiritual possession".How could he be willing to be an unknown full-back who only does dirty work when he has a chance to turn the tide?
Spain sent a defensive midfielder on the right, obviously defending themselves!But now that Gattuso is going to fight him hand-to-hand, isn't there a chance?
Villa, the guy who always likes to run to the center to force Torres, has been completely ignored by him...

Spain attacked from the right, and Senna slowly took the ball to observe the opponent's actions.Speed ​​is not his strong point, but he can also play the role of a full-back with delicate technique and good passing.

Grosso saw that the other party was not pulling up, so he decided to take the initiative and went up to meet him.Senna made a hand to protect the football under his feet.Although his skills are not the top in the Spanish team, it is not difficult to protect the ball.

"This is not possible, Senna can only guarantee not to concede the ball, but this attack has also been contained, he must find a way..."

At this moment, Senna suddenly put the ball behind himself and Grosso with a heel, and Villa received the ball!

"What!" Grosso was taken aback. Before jumping forward, he made sure that there was no one behind him. When did this little man get out of the penalty area?
Although it is not clear why the opponent ignored him, Villa knew that the opportunity was rare, so he immediately sent a low pass into the penalty area after receiving the ball.

Torres wanted to head the ball, but Materazzi appeared, and of course the ball was cleared out of the sideline by Materazzi.

This can't be done!

***********
Spain continued to attack wildly, and there were many opportunities on both sides.

Villa on the left teamed up with Sergio Ramos who was plugging in. Ramos took the lead in the struggle with Grosso, and he took the lead in passing the ball into the penalty area.

Torres knew that no matter how he tried to hide, he couldn't avoid it, so he prepared to fight Materazzi with all his strength!He lowered his center of gravity, concentrated his strength on the waist and abdomen, and then confronted Materazzi.And Materazzi also felt that the opponent seemed to be different from the previous one, so he also stepped up.

The two sides pulled each other in the confrontation, put their energy on the confrontation, but ignored the football, and by the time they reacted, the football had already flown.

Then, just as Cannavaro was facing the football and wanted to clear the siege, a red figure suddenly rushed out from behind him.

It's Reyes!A dive to the top!
"goooooooooooooooooal!" Maria yelled: "Goal! A powerful header from Reyes! At 22 minutes into the first half, Spain took the lead!"
