Fame with a ball

In the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League, Juventus played against Real Madrid at home.

There are still 30 minutes until the end of the game. Most of the players on the field have exhausted their physical strength and there is not much left, but the smell of gunpowder in the game is getting stronger and stronger.

Because whether it is Juventus or Real Madrid, they are looking for any chance to score goals, especially the ace forwards of their two teams, as if smelling a meat-scented predator, they are constantly wandering in each other's half. The excitement made everyone feel that something was wrong.

Due to the atmosphere, Capello and Mourinho were unable to sit on the coaching bench until the end of the game. They stood on the sidelines with their arms folded and their hands in the windbreaker pockets, looking intently at the field.

In the fans stands, Juventus and Real Madrid fans almost fell into a frenzy to cheer for their respective teams, and it became more and more valuable for the rare neutral fans to be calm.

"Hey man, where are you from?" a fan wearing a blue jacket asked those around him.

"Roma, I'm a Roma fan. What about you?"

"I came from Milan and I'm an Inter fan. It's a pity that we were eliminated without even making it through the group stage."

The Roma fans were a little puzzled: "Then you are watching this game to support-"

"I don't like Juventus, nor Real Madrid." The Inter fans curled their lips and looked at the stadium: "I came to see Mourinho."

"Oh, the Treble era - it's obvious. The glory that Mourinho brought to you is not so easily forgotten."

"You know, we've been waiting for him to come back to San Siro."

The Roma fans shrugged: "But I think he's doing well in Real Madrid—ah! Look!"

The Roma fans suddenly shouted, and then waved their fists: "Go in! Go in! Penetrate Casey's defense! Real Madrid has nothing to fear-God! Stopped again!"

He cursed "Damn Casillas" angrily before turning his head to face the friend he had just met.

The Inter Milan fans looked at him with big mouths: "Uh, I didn't expect that you are a Roma fan, but you... cheer for Juventus' number 10?!"

"You're wrong, buddy, I'm not a Juventus fan, and I don't like Real Madrid, but I like great goals. Juventus's No. 10 always kicks wonderful shots, so I like him. Besides By the way, isn’t Juventus also our Italian team? If we can almost monopolize the quarter-finals and semi-finals of the Champions League like the current Premier League in the future, and even stage an Italian derby in the final, how exciting it would be Fact! To be honest, even if the two sides of the game today are AC Milan and Arsenal, I will add for Milan—"

The Roma fans were stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that AC Milan and Inter Milan were almost incompatible. He hurriedly apologized: "You know, buddy, I just sighed, and there is no other meaning."

"Forget it, I know you didn't mean it." The expression of the Inter Milan fans was really bad at the beginning, but it has improved now. He nodded and said: "And what you said is actually right, our Italian football is no better than before. It's brilliant, so why bother with internal strife when it's external? As long as the glory belongs to Italy, it doesn't matter who wins the game."

"Ha! To you, the glory belongs to Italy!"

……

"In the 61st minute of the game, Casillas saved Lin Zhigao's shot, and the current score is still maintained at a 2:2 tie. In fact, after Ronaldo made a free throw, Real Madrid and Juventus each There was a shot, but both were saved by Casillas and Buffon. These two people are worthy of being the two greatest goalkeepers in the world today! This game is not just between Juventus and Real Madrid. The battle is the pinnacle battle between two world-class goalkeepers! Buffon is not old, and Saint Cassie is in a brave state. I am really worried that by the end of this game, we will not be able to see football through their fingers. .”

Liu Jianhong sighed regretfully: "Actually, as long as there is a little more difference, a few centimeters away, Lin Zhigao's shot will go in!"

Zhang Lu immediately continued: "Yes, by then Lin Zhigao will be the first person to score a hat-trick in the Champions League this season! Although Ronaldo, the top scorer in the Champions League, has already scored 10 goals But he hasn't had a hat-trick in the game, most of which are doubles."

"I really hope that Lin Zhigao can make persistent efforts and break the record of this season!" Liu Jianhong said from the bottom of his heart.

Consistent with his thoughts, there are also Chinese fans who are staying up late watching the live broadcast thousands of miles away, while nodding their heads like chickens pecking at rice, echoing his statement.

Of course, Lin Zhigao, who was running around on the court, couldn't hear Liu Jianhong's confession, but he did have the idea of ​​performing a hat-trick.

But it can't be called an idea, it is more appropriate to describe it as determination.

Lin Zhigao covered his face with his hands, wiped off the sweat from his forehead, and then stood in the Real Madrid half-court for a while to catch his breath.

Just now his shot was saved by Casillas, and he passed it to Varane. Varane made a big clearance, sent the ball near the center line, and then Alonso, who was guarding there, received the pass. Real Madrid launched another wave of offense.

Lin Zhigao was exhausted, but his spirit was always excited.Sweat kept coming out of his body, soaking the jersey thoroughly, and the two pieces of clothes on the back and chest were sticking to him, almost becoming transparent.

Just after taking a deep breath, Lin Zhigao saw Alonso passing the ball to Pepe, and Pepe was parading around the Juventus half-court with the ball, and not far from him stood Ronaldo with eagle eyes!

Nima, this guy is so haunted!

Lin Zhigao started to rush towards the midfield, and at the same time kept complaining in his heart: Pepe, you are so weak!Is there only one Ronaldo left in your teammate in the midfield? !What about Benzema!Higuain too!What about Di Maria!It's not good to pass the ball to, but as soon as this Portuguese reaches out for the ball, you obediently send it up. I don't know if I will bet with him again!Is this sincere cheating and wanting me to lose my position?

In fact, Lin Zhigao's guess was correct. In order to save his breath, Ronaldo resumed his previous style of sticking the ball. Once the ball hits his feet, it is difficult for him to pass it out.Not only that, but he also took the initiative to ask his teammates for the ball-fortunately, everyone in Real Madrid has long been used to him, and they all saw that he is in very good condition, so they consciously fed him the ball.

Ronaldo can casually say to Real Madrid teammates, "Hey, give me the ball, I want to shoot!", but Lin Zhigao can't.Who doesn't know that Ronaldo is now the biggest mountain in the Real Madrid dressing room?But Lin Zhigao has only just entered the middle position of the Juventus locker room. Although he performed well, there are not many superstars in the Juventus locker room, where seniority is more important than merit. There are also Buffon and Simeone. Pepe has two mountains on top of his head.

However, because Lin Zhigao knows how to be a man, he often goes out to eat and drink with his teammates, and he doesn't care about the small money and often pays for it himself, leaving everyone with the impression that "this guy is very nice and generous".So on the court, everyone often returns favors to others. For example, among the five or six passes, there are always one or two passes to him on purpose.

It's just that these occasional passes are obviously not enough compared to Real Madrid deliberately feeding Ronaldo the ball.

So Lin Zhigao's true nature was exposed a little bit unconsciously - this guy started to play his own idea of ​​grabbing the ball.

……

What Liu Jianhong said is correct. The highlight of this game is not only the duel of super forwards, but also the fighting skills of the world's two great goalkeepers.

Ronaldo's kick hit the goal vigorously and wiped the goal post and flew towards the net, but before it passed the goal, it was stopped by a powerful arm and blocked from the goal.

Buffon has saved at least all threatening shots for Juventus in these few 10 minutes, and his performance is exemplary.

The Juventus fans immediately cheered happily, but Capello walked up and down the field anxiously. Now he began to worry that if Juventus failed at home, they would wait until a month later. Wouldn't it be even more tragic to challenge the Bernabéu!

Buffon kicked the football out near the goal. Chiellini got the ball at the front of the penalty area and dribbled the ball from the wing to the midfield.

Verratti plugged in from the left at this time, ready to meet Chiellini.But before him, Real Madrid's Di Maria and Khedira acted faster. The two double-teamed Chiellini. Di Maria swiped the ball with his right foot and passed the ball from Chiellini's feet. snatched away.

Verratti punched his fist angrily.

Di Maria triumphantly dribbled the ball and continued to break through to the Juventus half. Chiellini, who had just been robbed of the ball by him, was dissatisfied and kept sticking to him, trying to defuse his attack.

Cristiano Ronaldo appeared near the Juventus penalty area, lingering there waiting for a pass from his teammates.

Di Maria made a fake move past Chiellini's defense, and then pushed forward with his foot, about to pass the ball.

At this moment, Lin Zhigao, who had been following him and watching his movements, suddenly accelerated. Just after Di Maria passed the ball, he inserted a foot across the side. The football bounced on his calf, and he was caught by him. Dial, obediently returned to Lin Zhigao's feet.

Di Maria frowned and stared at Lin Zhigao, Chiellini laughed loudly: "Lin, good job!"

Lin Zhigao grinned at him: "Thank you for the compliment, buddy!"

As soon as he touched the football with his toes, the black and white elves immediately followed him obediently, as if they were stuck.

Speeding up to get rid of Alonso who was behind him, Lin Zhigao dribbled the ball straight into the middle of the penalty area, Marcelo hurried forward to defend, but Lin Zhigao dribbled the ball to meet him, when Marcelo was stunned, he dodged, from He passed people on the right side.

The feeling of dribbling into Real Madrid's penalty area was so good. While dribbling the ball at high speed to evade Real Madrid's defenders, Lin Zhigao was proudly thinking about what shocking shooting method he should use to score——C Ronaldo has an elevator ball Such a unique move, he naturally also needs to have a cool move.

But after thinking about it, Lin Zhigao couldn't find a good-looking and eye-catching trick that he was fully sure of scoring goals.

At this moment, Varane suddenly appeared in front of him on the right, a hungry wolf pounced on the football under his feet.

Lin Zhigao was caught off guard and hurriedly chose to pass the ball.

Varane rushed to nothing, turned around and rushed towards Verratti who received the pass.

Lin Zhigao took the opportunity to get a few meters closer to Real Madrid's goal.

Verratti just turned the football upside down with his foot, and after attracting enough attention from Real Madrid's defense, he made a cross pass with Lin Zhigao.

Lin Zhigao raised his right foot, quickly and decisively kicked towards the goal with the back of his foot!

This shot was as fast as lightning, and even Casillas couldn't react in time to stop it!

"goooooooal!" The Italian commentator shouted heroically: "Lin scored a ground ball, helping Juventus to open the score again! This is a shot beyond everyone's expectations. Casillas has nothing Backhand power!"

After a pause, he suddenly seemed to remember something, and started roaring violently again. The sudden expansion of the volume shocked everyone: "Hat-trick! Lin performed a hat-trick in this game! He The first striker to score a hat-trick in the Champions League this season! Great Lin! Great Juventus! Great Italy!"

Verratti howled and rushed forward, hugging Lin Zhigao tightly: "You scored a goal! And I also had an assist!"

The camera closely followed the team's biggest hero to snap shots, capturing Lin Zhigao's stunned and then joyful expressions clearly, and broadcast them truthfully to every TV.

When Messi saw this scene, he suddenly grinned: "I didn't expect him to score three goals!"

……

The score was widened again, and Capello finally stopped being anxious off the field. He walked slowly back to the coach's bench.

Mourinho saw Capello's expression changes from beginning to end, and couldn't help but smirked, but he quickly closed his mouth and began to focus on the game again.

C Ronaldo stood near the center line, snorting and blowing out his nose. He felt so aggrieved: Damn, this Juventus kid took the lead again!

But who is Ronaldo?This guy is a scoring machine!

The simplest criterion to become a scoring machine is not to miss any chance to shoot!

In the 73rd minute of the game, almost the whole game was played, Caceres, who was exhausted, made a long pass, suddenly missed the shot, and was intercepted by Pepe!

Real Madrid immediately launched an attack.

After Pepe took the ball, he directly stuffed it to Alonso. Alonso took the ball and advanced towards the Juventus half. Ronaldo followed closely, ready to respond to Alonso's pass at any time.

Lin Zhigao couldn't help but cast a bunch of defenders, and he jumped at Alonso from the midfield.

Alonso immediately passed the ball to Benzema, and Benzema raised his foot and shot!

The football goes straight to the middle of the goal!

Buffon exhausted his last strength and threw this extremely accurate football out!

Before Capello breathed a sigh of relief off the field, he saw a black figure, like a sharp sword, inserted into the middle of the Juventus penalty area and made a follow-up shot!

Ronaldo!

"Oh, God!" The Italian commentator couldn't help holding his head and wailing: "C Ronaldo shot the football into the goal! Real Madrid overtook the score again!"

After the goal, Ronaldo opened his arms excitedly, the muscles on his face were almost twitching with laughter, he even wanted to take off his clothes to show off his abs to celebrate - but thinking that the referee might give him a yellow card for this , so he held back.

"After Lin Zhigao performed a hat-trick in this game, Ronaldo refused to give way and immediately followed up." Liu Jianhong sighed: "This game is really twists and turns for Juventus-first A big lead in the first half, was tied, opened the score, was tied again. Now it is almost the end of the game, if the final game is tied, Real Madrid takes away three goals from Nuevo Alpe, which will give Juventus' next round of the Champions League will cast a heavy shadow!"

Lin Zhigao only rushed to the vicinity of the restricted area at this time, but it was already too late.

Ronaldo, who was in a state of joy, came to Lin Zhigao with a smile on his face, his mouth almost cracked behind his ears. He held his head up and said proudly: "Want to beat me in goals? No way!"

Lin Zhigao was not in the mood to argue with him this time, he just glanced at Ronaldo blankly, then turned and walked away.

Ronaldo looked at his back and smiled very high.

……

Capello finally made the decision to substitute in the 81st minute of the game.

He replaced Cáceres, who was severely depleted.

This substitution shows that Capello has not conceded defeat-he replaced Quagliarella on the field, hoping to use his offense to score another goal for the team.

And just after Capello's substitution, Mourinho also made substitutions and adjustments, replacing Diarra with Coentrao, and withdrawing Pepe to the back line, letting Marcelo, Diarra , Di Maria, and Alonso defended in the midfield, forming a 343 formation of three defenders.

Mourinho's action also got Liu Jianhong's evaluation: "Mourinho has strengthened his defense, which means that he is satisfied with 3 goals and wants to keep the score at 3:3. Otherwise, In fact, there is no need for Real Madrid to make substitutions and adjustments."

And Capello's evaluation of this is-despicable!

He had already seen it. He changed players, and Mourinho also changed players immediately. It wasn't about changing tactics at all, Mourinho wanted to delay!He thought that the more game time he could spend, the better!I am afraid that at this time the referee directly blows the whistle for the end of the game, which is more in his mind!

Capello couldn't take it anymore, he rushed to the sidelines and shouted at Pepe who was holding the ball on the wing: "Pass all the ball to Lin, Vucinic and Quagliarella! I want you to score another goal ! If you end the game with a draw, just wait for more training after the game!"

When Pepe heard this, his body trembled immediately, and then he tilted his foot and passed the ball.

Lin Zhigao took the opportunity to appear, and without even thinking about it, he shot a super long-range shot towards the Real Madrid goal!

This shot was 50 meters away, and the angle was very biased. Of course, the goal was missed.

But this made Casillas and others break out in a cold sweat: It turns out that Juventus has not given up!

Ronaldo was also very surprised. He stared at Lin Zhigao who kept swaying in front of his side, half of his heart was surprised, and the other half... slowly came up with a few inexplicable complex emotions.

Birds of a feather flock together, people form groups, lunatics appreciate lunatics—even if they are crazy for scoring goals, crazy for winning.

Verratti stood resting on the turf panting, when suddenly someone patted him on the shoulder!

"The game is not over yet, what are you doing here stupidly! Hurry up and run, I'm still waiting for you to pass the ball to me!"

As soon as Verratti turned his head, he saw his teammate Lin Zhigao, who was drenched in sweat and flushed.

Thinking that the opponent had played almost the entire game, and was so tired but still thinking about winning the game for the team, Verratti couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration and self-blame in his heart. He immediately stood up straight, Said: "Go and wait near the Real Madrid penalty area, I will give you an assist!"

After all, he ran to the midfield.

Lin Zhigao shook his head to get rid of the sweat, and went to the Real Madrid defense line to look for opportunities to break through.

In the 84th minute of the game, the rhythm of the game became more and more urgent. Almost the entire Juventus team was pressed near the midfield, trying to force Real Madrid to open their defense.

Real Madrid's defensive trident stubbornly held on to its position, allowing Juventus to dissipate an attack before it took shape.

In the 86th minute, Verratti dribbled the ball from the wing, and Marcelo defended him. In order to get rid of Marcelo, Verratti picked the ball and made a long pass, and Marcelo couldn't help the handball in order to defuse the pass. up.

The referee blew his whistle immediately!

Ramos was booked for handball and the referee awarded Juventus a free kick.

Standing in front of the penalty spot, Verratti couldn't help but take a few steps back and signaled his teammates: I can't take this penalty.

Although Verratti wanted to make contributions to the team, first, he was not good at free kicks. Second, the penalty spot was at a 45-degree angle from the goal, which was a little far away—about 30 meters. He didn’t believe in his own. The free kick is level, so just give the ball away.

Simeone, Vucinic, and Quagliarella looked at each other, and while they were about to move, they were also a little apprehensive-this free kick is undoubtedly extremely important, and if it is scored, it will add glory.But if you can't score, and the game ends in a tie, it will be the fault of the person who took the penalty. It can be said that one thought of heaven and one thought of hell.

Juventus' offensive players hesitated, but Capello couldn't wait any longer. He stomped anxiously on the edge of the court.

In the end, the ball was pushed to Lin Zhigao to take the penalty. First, he was the team's first penalty kicker handpicked by Capello. Second, he had already performed a hat-trick in this game, even if the ball did not The penalty is more meritorious than demerit, and will not be blamed by fans and coaches.But if it was Vucinic and the others who took the penalty and missed the penalty, perhaps the fans would immediately yell at them from the stands.

When Lin Zhigao came up and stood in front of the penalty spot, he was replaying all kinds of free kick shooting tricks in his mind, and finally, these messy and fragmented pictures were suddenly concentrated on one shot——

The whole world watched this scene with bated breath.

Especially the more than 6 Juventus fans, they dare not make a sound at this moment, for fear that due to their own reasons, the team will miss the victory.

Lin Zhigao took a deep breath, cleared his mind, and didn't let anything stay in his head.

He took a few steps back, stopped at a certain point, and then slowly started running forward.

When Lin Zhigao approached the football penalty spot, everyone was waiting for him to raise his right leg and hit a fast, powerful and heavy direct shot. This free kick shooting method has almost become the representative of Lin Zhigao—— — Powerful and direct.

However, what Lin Zhigao raised was his left leg!

He swung his left calf, pointed the outer instep at the middle and lower part of the football, and suddenly volleyed!

With a strong rotation, the football flew towards the goal along a very tricky angle!

The human wall formed by several Real Madrid players jumped high, but the black and white elf cleverly avoided them!

Casillas was ready to pounce on the center of the goal, so at this moment... he froze!

The football passed through the human wall high, drew a beautiful arc, and then quickly got into the net!

"Banana ball? Is it a banana ball?!"

"Big, big four!"

"God!"
