Fame with a ball

This is a city derby.

Juventus are at the Stadio Olimpico in Turin.

The nature of the derby determines that this game has been extremely hot from the very beginning.

The last time he played against the Torino team, the scene where the Turin fans ripped off his shorts after the game made Lin Zhigao lose face and naturally made him feel bad for the Torino team.

However, the Turin players did not care about Lin Zhigao's favor. On the contrary, they regarded Lin Zhigao as an enemy, and they made fierce defensive moves several times, almost knocking Lin Zhigao to the ground.

The defensive actions of the Turin defenders who were on the verge of fouling caused the Juventus fans present to boo them desperately, wishing that the referee would send them off immediately.

But the referee Nicola Barnett was a bit inclined towards the home whistle.

Not only that, Barnett also gave Caceres a yellow card in the 10th minute of the first half on the grounds that he was against the Turin defenders. Ling striker Antenucci fouled - but God knows Antenucci was the one who flopped!De Chelie looked fierce when he tackled the ball, but in fact he didn't touch him at all!

Torino therefore awarded a direct free kick.

There were boos again in the Olympic Stadium, and the Juventini raised their middle fingers at the Barnett referee.

Barnett signaled the Torino free throw.

Torino striker Antenucci stood in front of the penalty spot, put the football down, and took a few steps back to prepare for a run-up.

Interested people noticed that the direction of Antonucci's retreat was slightly shifted to the right, and they immediately thought-Is Antonucci going to shoot to the right of the goal?

Sure enough, after the run-up, Antenucci leaned slightly to the right, raised his right leg and hit the football suddenly.

The ball must have been shot from the right of the goal!Most of the players present thought so.

But they didn't notice that Antenucci turned his right ankle before shooting, but he pushed the football in the opposite direction!

Several players in the Juventus penalty area suddenly exclaimed.This turned out to be a trick played by Antenoch!

But immediately, something that excited the Juventus players happened-Buffon rushed to the left of the goal!

Buffon sees through Antenucci's feint!

And his right hand firmly supported the galloping football, and threw it away!

The Italian commentator held up the microphone and said: "Antennucci's wonderful free kick was not scored, and Juventus escaped unharmed. Buffon has contributed a lot! Although the Italian goalkeeper is nearly 36 years old, he is still a zebra. The indispensable soul of the Legion, he is one of the contributors to Juventus' unbeaten record!"

"However, there were yellow cards and free kicks in the past 10 minutes of the game. It seems that the omens are not good? The referee of this game is... Nicola Barnett. The official occupation of this famous Serie A post is an architect , Got the referee license in 02, began to appear in Serie A in 03, and once officiated the Coppa Italia final in the 09-10 season."

"Barnett is a referee with a lot of personality, and his enforcement style is changeable. He once ignored two obvious diving actions in the match between Rome and Fiorentina in the 07-08 season, and was complained about the enforcement after the game He was not firm enough, so he was suspended for two games. He also sent three red cards in a row in a league game in the 09-10 season. I really can’t guess that such a hot game met such a unique referee. How is the game going to go?"

……

"Bang" loud noise!

The goal crossbar blocked the trajectory of the football flight and bounced it hard.

However, due to the force of the shot, the goal post was shaken and buzzed for several seconds.

Turin goalkeeper Morello was half shocked and half scared: Fortunately, the ball was blocked by the crossbar. If it flew directly to his chest, he would not be knocked out to death?

The Juventus fans sighed in disappointment, because Lin Zhigao kicked the shot, but it didn't go in.

Since the opening 27 minutes of the game, although Juventus and Torino have played fiercely, there are not many exciting scenes. The two sides are only imposing enough, but they have failed to form a few substantive shots. The Turin striker Antenucci's kick was barely counted as one, and Lin Zhigao's kick was also counted as one.

Lin Zhigao stood in front of the Turin goal with his hips akimbo when he thought he was going to score but was blocked by the crossbar, and said to himself: "Hey, it seems that today's luck is not very good?"

But then he shook his head, turned around and helped to return to the defense-feeling that his luck was not very good in front of the opponent's goal, to be honest, it felt a bit unlucky.

In the 30th minute of the first half, Turin defender Di Cesare also received a yellow card.

Iaquinta dribbled the ball near the center and turned around to pass back. Lin Zhigao was only ten meters away from him. Di Cesare feared that Iaquinta would pass the ball to Lin Zhigao, so he hooked him down very irrationally. The referee Barnett then signaled to Di Cesare that he had fouled.

Barnett's penalty was fairly pertinent, but some Juventus fans present were still dissatisfied. They shouted into the stadium: "You can give him a red card!"

In the Central Five Studios, Liu Jianhong stared at the gloomy face of the referee on the big screen, and half-jokingly said: "The first half of the game was a bit angry, whether it was the players on both sides or the referee. Nicola Barney Coach Te doesn't seem to be in a good mood today, I noticed that he had a sullen expression in the mixed zone since the game hadn't started."

Zhang Lu immediately continued: "I also feel that the referee has brought his own personal emotions into the law enforcement, but so far, this is still a good thing, the Turin Derby, the scene is so hot, good tempered The referee obviously couldn't control the rhythm of the game."

Juventus also got a free kick because of a foul by the Turin defender.

Lin Zhigao stood in front of the penalty spot.

He is now the No. [-] penalty shooter in the Juventus team.

The tens of meters between the penalty spot and the goal are covered with players from both Turin and Juventus, at least a dozen of them.

From Lin Zhigao's perspective, all he could see was a mass of black heads and players from both sides.

He took a deep breath and started running.

Out of prudent consideration, Liu Jianhong began to comfort the Chinese fans: "This free kick is too far from the goal, a full 34 meters. When the football is flying in the air, it can give the goalkeeper enough time to judge the direction of the shot, so Lin Zhigao I wouldn't be surprised if I didn't score this free kick."

In fact, not only Liu Jianhong, but most of the players present also thought the same way. A free kick more than 30 meters away from the goal, the probability of being successfully saved by the goalkeeper is too high.

Lin Zhigao raised his right foot, pointed the outside of his foot at the bottom of the football, and slapped the football with great force in a very short time!

But perhaps it was due to the lack of stability on his left leg. When Lin Zhigao touched the ball with his right foot, the angle was a little bit off. He actually hit the left side of the bottom of the football, and the focus was on his big toe!

As soon as the football flew into the air, Lin Zhigao felt a thump in his heart: It's broken, the goal must not be scored.

He couldn't help lowering his head, for fear that the fans would boo him after the ball was saved by the goalkeeper.

"Oh, this ball is a little floating in mid-air." Liu Jianhong stared at the football, opened and closed his mouth: "This ball is not very high, it flew straight to the middle of the goal... and crossed the wall... Eh, Why doesn't the ball seem to be spinning?"

Turin goalkeeper Morello was always nervous before Lin Zhigao shot, but after Lin Zhigao hit the football, he relaxed instead, because the ball did not seem to be very difficult to save.

The human wall composed of players from both sides in front of the Turin goal failed to stop the football. Morello was not surprised. Jump high and throw your hands up at the ball!

but!Just three meters in front of the goal, the football suddenly turned to the left as if it had eyes!

Morello watched the football turn in front of him and couldn't help being stunned.

Countless fans watched the football fall into the net with their mouths wide open. Some people who were particularly shocked even shouted in surprise: "This, this violates the laws of physics!"

The Italian commentator shouted in a high-pitched and loud voice like a train flute: "This ball is S-shaped! And it only has an arc in mid-air without rotation!"

"Lin's free kick shot is a bit like Juninho!"

Junior Juninho, a Brazilian star, is universally recognized as a master of free kicks. The S-shaped free kick was created by Juninho Jr. It is famous for its erratic trajectory, sudden turn after crossing the wall, and falling into the net with a rapid drop.

……

After a few seconds of silence at the Olympic Stadium, applause and whistles broke out suddenly.

Lin Zhigao lowered his head and couldn't help shrinking his neck, cursing inwardly: Didn't I just miss a free kick? Why is the booing so loud?

He secretly raised his head to look in front of him, but was startled by a large group of teammates rushing towards him with grinning mouths.

Pepe, a hungry tiger, hung most of his body on Lin Zhigao, then patted him on the back happily and laughed, "Good job, Lin!"

Every part of his body was attacked by his teammates. Lin Zhigao, who was struggling hard, looked around and immediately saw the sign of "Juventus 1:0 Torino" on the scoreboard, and immediately turned his mouth in joy—— Ha, he even made a mistake and shot the ball into the goal!

The big screen above the stadium began to replay the process of Lin Zhigao taking free kicks. Lin Zhigao raised his head with his chin in his hands, and couldn't help being intoxicated for a while.

"Lin actually tied Nordahl's scoring record in a single season in Serie A with a free kick. This is really unexpected." The Italian commentator smiled into the microphone: "We have stood at the turning point of history. How about breaking Nordahl's record in this game? Fans and friends in front of the TV should keep their eyes open and watch carefully."

Play continued after Torino keeper Morello picked the ball up from the inside of the goal.

In the 35th minute, Turin striker Bianchi dribbled the ball in the midfield, and Caceres passed it to Pepe after stealing the ball. Kicked and scored from the front of the penalty area.

Morello saves the ball.

In the 37th minute, Torino launched a quick counterattack. Torino player Basha gave the ball to Jori with a heel kick.

Jori dribbled the ball towards the Juventus penalty area. When he was about to reach the front of the penalty area, he suddenly split the ball. Turin striker Antenucci received the pass and immediately rushed towards the Juventus penalty area.

The Juventus defenders rushed back to defend and surrounded Antenucci.

Antenucci stepped on two bicycles in a row, passed De Qielie and Chiellini, and met the last defender Caceres in the Juventus penalty area.

Antenucci bullied forward, and when he was about to lift his foot to shoot, Cáceres couldn't help stretching out his hand to pull him in desperation.

The Turin striker immediately yelled and fell forward on the turf.

The referee Barnett immediately ran in front of Caceres, showed him a red card, and pointed to the penalty spot!

Red card and penalty kick!

Cáceres was stunned, the other players on the field were stunned, and even Capello came to the edge of the court with his mouth open.

At this time, the linesman suddenly raised the flag, indicating that Antenucci was offside when Caceres attacked!

Liu Jianhong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Cáceres shouldn't have received a red card. Even if Antenucci was not offside, Cáceres' foul action is actually a yellow card. What's more, now the linesman has signaled Antenucci Qi is offside...Let us look at the slow motion of the big screen, he was offside for most of his body...The referee was a little impulsive, he gave the Turin team a penalty in a hurry without watching the linesman's action...This The penalty will cause great controversy after the game. As for whether the referee will correct his mistakes, I think it is unlikely."

Sure enough, although the referee saw the line referee's signal, he stubbornly refused to admit that he had made a mistake.He pointed his hand at the penalty spot again, and then signaled Caceres to leave the field immediately. This aroused great dissatisfaction among the Juventus players. They surrounded the referee and shouted: "It is the opponent's player who is offside. First!" "Accommodating, sir!"

The referee sternly ordered them not to disturb the order of the game, otherwise he would punish them.

Caceres went off with his head down, and Juventus became a 10-man battle.

Torino striker Bianchi took the penalty. He kicked the ball with his left foot to the bottom right corner of the goal. Because of the tricky angle, Buffon failed to save the ball.

Turin equalized the score.

……

After the first half of the game, the Juventus players were a little angry.

Capello was also very unhappy, but he did not vent his temper on Caceres, who was sent off by a red card, because it was not only useless, but also chilled the hearts of other defenders.

In the normal league, facing a team of the level of Turin, Juventus, with 10 players, would not be afraid.But this is a derby battle, and it is the home court of the Turin team. After the first half of the game, the head coach of Turin will definitely encourage his players to fight Juventus with all their strength-if they have to face Juventus in the second half. The most important thing is that the Turin team is attacking wildly with the momentum of the home court. Can Juventus' defense line without a hole last for so long?

For the current plan, Juventus can only score first in the second half, disrupting the rhythm of the Turin team, otherwise, 10 players against 11 players, the longer the time drags on, the more disadvantaged the former will be.

Of course, the pressure of the team's offense was placed on Lin Zhigao's shoulders, which made him feel a little nervous, and at the same time, he couldn't help cursing the referee secretly, because if it weren't for his dizzy judgment, the situation of Juventus would not have changed all of a sudden. It's getting tough.

Capello's lecture was not long. After the players took a short rest and replenished their strength, there were still a few minutes before the start of the second half. They left the locker room in twos and threes.

Lin Zhigao walked with Caceres, who looked depressed, and when he walked into the player tunnel, he saw his teammates looking bad, and he couldn't help comforting him: "Don't be too sad, Martin, it's not your fault. It's just that the referee is too bad, after the game is over, we should be able to recover something, such as appealing your red card."

"You think so too?" Cáceres' face lit up with a little hope.

"Of course!" Lin Zhigao turned up his volume a bit to make himself appear more confident: "The club will definitely appeal after the game, and we will complain to the referee, he is simply a misjudgment! And De Qie Lie In the first half of the yellow card, he didn't touch the Turin player at all, and the referee's home whistle was too obvious!"

Cáceres showed a small smile, just about to say something to Lin Zhigao, when suddenly his face changed drastically and he stared behind him.

A bad premonition arose in Lin Zhigao's heart: "Martin?"

"Are you accusing me of blowing the home whistle? Juventus'... number 10."

Lin Zhigao thought "Oops" in his heart, turned around slowly, and looked at the referee Nicola Barnett standing behind him. Barnett's face was very ugly, and he used a gloomy expression He stared at Lin Zhigao.

"I don't think I slandered you, Mr. Referee." Lin Zhigao cheered himself up and said boldly: "Although I said you were wrong behind my back, I was right. You made a misjudgment in the first half , at that time the line judges-"

"Shut up! You nagging fellow!" Barnett was suddenly furious, and shouted at Lin Zhigao: "If you continue to slander me, believe it or not, I will also give you a red card? !"

Barnett's behavior made Lin Zhigao think his behavior was even more ugly-so many players and fans in the audience, as well as the cameras recorded the referee's words and deeds, does he still want to quibble and refuse to admit his mistakes? what?And what is he doing, threatening himself?

Lin Zhigao was dissatisfied and was about to argue with Barnett when Cáceres quickly grabbed Lin Zhigao's arm and begged him in a low voice: "Calm down, calm down! Lin, don't make trouble!"

Nicola Barnett took the opportunity and said viciously, "You better keep your mouths shut!", then turned and left.

Hearing these words, Lin Zhigao became angry again, but seeing Cáceres' pleading gaze, he suppressed his dissatisfaction, patted Cáceres' hand, nodded and said, "Okay , I will endure, endure until the club appeals after the game!"
