Chapter 080: Captain's Armband

"This ...... Penalty and red card package?"

Yang 5 commentator He Wei looked at the referee Marienko and Ramos, who looked confused, and exclaimed.

"Woo-woo-"

The Real Madrid fans at the Bernabeu Stadium caused a deafening loud boo to express their strong displeasure with the referee Marienco.

In their perception, not only are red cards non-existent, but even penalties do not exist.

Martino had complained to the fourth official about the lack of objectivity in Marienko's penalty, and now it is Real Madrid's coach Carlo Ancelotti to complain to the fourth official about Marienko.

The slow-motion replay has not been given for a long time, and the British Sky commentator Andy Gray only has a preliminary understanding of the contact between Ramos and Neymar through the live broadcast screen, he said: "Let's not say whether Sergio Ramos fouled Neymar, first of all, this red card is not up to standard, after all, this is a very high-level national derby, if Sergio Ramos is distributed, Real Madrid will be fully passive at home, if it is difficult to make decisions, you can refer to the 2010 South Africa World Cup final Howard · Webb's penalty ......"

German Sky commentator Marcel Leif shook his head and said: "Once the referee's decision appears, it is difficult to make changes, the penalty should not be much of a problem, just give Ramos another red card, it will be a bit too ......much"

The Catalan Sports TV commentator agreed with the referee's decision with both hands: "There is no problem with the penalty, there is no problem with the red card, Sergio Ramos is the last defender, don't forget, he has a yellow card on him, even if Marienco does not give a direct red card, he will turn two yellows into one red......"

Immediately, the live director gave a slow-motion playback.

It is not difficult to see from the slow-motion replay technology that Ramos does have a small movement behind him, but Neymar's reaction is too exaggerated, and even completely violates the laws of physics.

Tang Zheng was very dissatisfied with the referee Marienko's decision, and he was also very emotional in terms of emotion.

Penalties are acceptable, but sending off Ramos is a no-no.

Even if it is a home game against Barcelona, it will be difficult for Real Madrid, who play one less, to hold on to the current score for the rest of the game, and may even be reversed by Barcelona in the final game time.

For this possibility, it is necessary to cut it off at the root.

However, Marienko made a decisive decision, and even gave the more emotional Tang Zheng a yellow card as a warning.

Seeing the resolute decision of the referee Marienko, although the Real Madrid players were unhappy, they did not say anything, after all, Ramos's red card has become a reality, and it is only themselves who will suffer from the referee's struggle.

Ramos, the person concerned, shook his head, hugged Tang Zheng's back and walked outside the big penalty area, and said: "Tang, needless to say, the referee's judgment cannot be changed, so ...... The rest of the game will depend on you and Cristiano Ronaldo. ”

Tang Zheng looked at Ramos and tapped his chin and raised his right hand: "Sergio, you don't have to blame yourself, if you don't foul him, he can already score, your foul is not without effect." ”

Ramos shook his head and smiled bitterly, also raised his right hand to shake Tang Zheng's right hand, and sighed: "The game is won, I will invite you to dinner." ”

"OK!"

※※※

Ramos had just taken a few steps, and he found that the captain's armband was still tied to his left arm, so he took it off, walked back to Tang Zheng, and handed it over: "Oh, here you go." ”

Tang Zheng looked confused, it stands to reason that in a top club like Real Madrid, the captains of the team are ranked according to their qualifications.

Captain Iker Casillas currently alternates with Diego López, one in the cup and the other in the league, so Ramos is the captain of the field in the absence of Casillas, followed by Marcelo and Pepe.

Now that Sergio Ramos has been sent off, the captain's armband should be worn on Marcelo's or Pepe's left arm.

Ramos smiled when he saw Tang Zheng's confused expression, and then helped him put it on with his own hands.

The on-site director just captured this very interesting close-up, and the CCTV 5 commentator He Wei was very surprised: "Ramos didn't hand over the captain's armband to Marcelo, he directly put the captain's armband on Tang Zheng's left arm." ”

At the same time, Ramos looked up and said to Tang Zheng: "Tang, we all see your leadership, and I can lead us to victory in the end." ”

After that, Ramos patted Tang Zheng's shoulder again and added, "Come on." ”

By the time Tang Zheng reacted, Ramos had already turned around and walked towards the players' tunnel.

British Sky commentator Andy Grey was very surprised: "Oh-My-God! Sergio Ramos actually took the initiative to put the captain's armband on Don, which ...... Does it mean that another new record has been set?"

He Wei, the central 5 commentator who reacted, also said: "I have to say that this night was a record-breaking night, and at this moment, Tang Zheng made history again, and he became the first Asian captain in the history of Real Madrid Club." ”

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti was also surprised, but he was only a little surprised and did not have any complaints.

Looking at the entire team, Tang Zheng's leadership on the field is the strongest, and Real Madrid, which is now in crisis, is the most suitable for Tang Zheng to be the captain on the field.

Although Marcelo was a little uncomfortable, he breathed more in his heart.

He is not the kind of player who has excellent leadership in the first place, and it is all about the qualifications to be the current third captain of Real Madrid.

The Catalan Sport TV commentator did not pay attention to the 'trivia' of Real Madrid, he paid more attention to Messi, who was about to take a penalty.

"Woo-woo-"

Moments later, Messi, referee Marienko and Real Madrid goalkeeper Diego López stood in the Real Madrid penalty area with loud boos over the Bernabeu Stadium.

Everyone's focus is on Messi, who takes the penalty, and Diego López, who is the goalkeeper, who can win this direct battle between spear and shield?

At this moment, the referee on duty, Marienko, blew the whistle: "Beep~"

Messi, who looked very calm on the broadcast screen, started running, adjusted in three steps, and picked up the familiar left foot.

Tang Zheng, who was standing behind Messi, pointed his right index finger to the right side of the goal, because he had a strong premonition that Messi would kick the ball to the right side of the goal.

Diego López, who had been hesitant, also saw Tang Zheng's instructions and realized that he could make a mistake if he gambled on one side anyway, so it was better to believe Tang Zheng.

But...... Tang Zheng did guess correctly, and Diego Lopes also pounced on the left side of his body, but Messi is Messi after all, and his left-footed shot is full of power, the angle is tricky, and it is attached to the turf.

Diego Lopes is tall and has long arms and excellent goal-line skills, but the only downside is that he is a little slow to get off the ground.

3:3

Messi took advantage of the penalty opportunity to help Barcelona equalize, and the frenzy at the Bernabeu Stadium dropped significantly, only the Barcelona fans who came with the team hysterically raised their arms and chanted.

With more than 10 minutes left in the game, Barcelona played with one more man, as if they saw their team come back from behind to win in the final minute of the game.

In addition to the Real Madrid die-hard fans in the south stand who remained optimistic, many Real Madrid fans who attended the stadium were a little pessimistic.

Barcelona's traditional football philosophy is to focus on controlling football, and now Real Madrid have one less player, which is equivalent to saying that Barcelona's Tiki-Taka tactics have come into play.

Martino immediately came to the sidelines to greet captain Xavi and gave him a good lesson.

On the other side, Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti pulled France international Raphael Varane on the sidelines to explain some problems.

Ramos was sent off with a red card and had to be replaced by a centre-back.

Although Tang Zheng, who has a strong sense of position, can be qualified as a central defender, Ancelotti does not want to draw with Barcelona at home, so he can only sacrifice other players.

As a result, Benzema was unfortunate to be the player who was replaced.

Because Modric, Xavi Alonso and Tang Zheng in the midfield are all indispensable, Cristiano Ronaldo is the striker, and Isco only came on in the second half and cannot be replaced, so ......

So centre-back Raphael Varane replaced Benzema, who scored twice in the game.

Benzema was in a bad mood as it was rare to score a brace in the national derby, and he even had the feeling that he could score a hat-trick in the rest of the game.

But...... The game encountered an unexpected situation and was helpless.

But at this time, there is no choice.

The game restarted, Real Madrid, which had the advantage of kick-off, stabilized its position under Tang Zheng's deliberate control, and was not afraid of Barcelona with one more player.

However, Real Madrid's attack will eventually result in a shot on goal, and Cristiano Ronaldo, who is at the front, did not pose a threat to Valdés in the back of the net.

Barcelona switched from defense to attack, and Real Madrid did not dare to press in the front court with one less player, so they could only retreat to the half.

Tang Zheng is now the captain of Real Madrid, and he keeps his defensive formation unchanged through running and reminders while completing his defensive tasks.

As the game ticked for 80 minutes, Barcelona gradually took control of the pace of the game and Real Madrid had to defend passively.

Yang 5 commentator He Wei was very helpless about the situation: "The referee Marienko's decision is really debatable, and his harsh decision ruined what should have been a very exciting national derby. ”

Tang Zheng worked very hard during this time, and he made up for the disadvantage of playing one less man by running widely.

However, Barcelona's overall strength is not weaker than Real Madrid's, and the overall quality is extremely high, and they know how to avoid the most important part of Real Madrid's defensive system.

In the 82nd minute, Messi was attacking the right rib with the ball, and he didn't wait for Tang Zheng to get close, he directly picked up his left foot, and made a long diagonal pass to accurately find the foot of Iniesta, who was close to the bottom line on the left side.

Jordi Alba and Neymar gave Andres Iniesta valuable time to get on the ball, and Iniesta, who had experienced the World Cup final, had a strong heart and led the ball straight into the box against Carvajal, who had returned to right-back.

Xavi Alonso is well aware of his international team-mate Andres Iniesta's individual ability, so he made up for the flanks when Tang Zheng did not return to his position.

Iniesta naturally won't wait for the two to be in place, and he used the shaking of his upper body and the duffle of his feet, so that Carvajal and Xavi Alonso did not dare to kick at will.

In the process of moving, Iniesta was keenly aware of the gaps between Carvajal and Xavi Alonso, so he suddenly used his instep to move the ball forward and accelerate through the gap.

A second later, Iniesta fell in the box.

The focus was once again on the referee on duty, Marienko, because ...... He blew his whistle and pointed his right index finger at the penalty spot.

"Oh-My-God!!!, another penalty!"

British Sky Commentator Andy Gray's eyes widened in disbelief.

Yang 5 commentator He Wei was stunned and said in surprise: "This ...... Marienko really dared to blow it! The third penalty of the game! Real Madrid one, Barcelona two!"

Xavi, who fell to the ground, raised his fists excitedly, and then hugged his teammates in celebration.

The penalty kick that lasted more than 80 minutes was tantamount to a lore!

"Woo-woo-"

The Real Madrid fans at the Bernabeu Stadium instantly erupted in huge boos, which were sent to the referee on duty, Marienko, and even many radical fans burst into foul language.

If Ramos's foul behind the back was obviously excusable, then Iniesta's penalty in the penalty area was somewhat puzzling, so Ancelotti was very angry and went to the fourth official to complain loudly.

Fortunately, the assistant coach Zinedine Zidane has a lot of experience, and he forced it away with the assistance of Clement.

If the manager is also sent off for complaining about the referee, then the game is really out of play.

At the same time, Tang Zheng, who wears the captain's armband on his left armband, has to defend the interests of the team, and he is very experienced in this area, having captained Borussia Dortmund in the past.

However, I pay great attention to the attitude, after all, I have a yellow card on my back, and if I get a yellow card because of the attitude, then I don't have to play the game.

However, Marienko's attitude was the same as his previous judgment, decisive and always insisted on his own punishment.

Other words...... The penalty cannot be changed.

In this regard, Tang Zheng was very helpless.

He Wei, the commentator of CCTV 5, looked at the broadcast screen and said: "Referee Marienko insisted on his decision, Real Madrid, which played one less, should lose at home?"

Messi, who has already scored twice in the game, stands in front of the penalty spot and will face goalkeeper Diego López again.

In the face of the boos of the audience, Messi, who stood in front of the penalty spot, was very calm, but goalkeeper Diego López looked a little nervous.

After all, if Messi is allowed to score a penalty kick again, Barcelona will reverse 4:3, and there will be a big question mark over whether the side that plays one less player can equalize the score.

"Beep~"

When Diego López's fugue was too empty, the referee on duty, Marienco, blew his whistle.

Messi began to run, and the Real Madrid fans in the stands tacitly created a deafening huge boo, hoping to affect Messi's performance.

But Messi is a big player with a very good mental quality, and he kicked the ball in the opposite direction of Diego López's save under great pressure.

3:4!

Barcelona are ahead of the score again!

"It was a thrilling game! The score went from 0:1 to 2:1. Then it's 3:2, and now it's 3:4, Barcelona is leading away! And Real Madrid have one less player, do they still have a chance to equalize?"

British Sky Commentator Andy Gray explains.
