Chapter 283: Promotion (II)
Farfan saw the ball coming to his side and immediately dribbled forward, and there was a smooth road ahead of him, and he should have only one shot on goal at this point. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
But at the moment when Falfan turned around, he suddenly saw a figure rushing towards him out of the corner of his eye, and the speed of that person was so fast that he didn't even have time to turn around and was knocked directly to the ground.
It turned out that Gu Yaita rushed out of the penalty area at the first time, he didn't have time to think about it at all, he had to stop the opponent anyway, but there was no objection to this foul, the referee had quickly arrived at the scene, he did not hesitate to show the red card directly to Gu Yaita, this penalty did not cause any objections, Valencia's will to fight completely fell to the bottom.
A minute later Valencia made a substitution, replacing the only striker on the pitch and they themselves had already given up. Farfan quickly stood up, and although he was directly brought down, his opponent did not mean to hurt anyone, so he was only knocked down without showing injury, which was already the best result.
However, there was no objection to the free-kick in this position, and the Valencia players once again laid out a human wall that they thought was perfect, but what was the use? they didn't even know what it meant to continue.
The whistle sounded again, and almost at the moment it sounded, Ai Huan's shot was already completed, and the ball rushed into the net like lightning, without any condensation, and the goalkeeper who had just come on the field did not react at all, he even just glanced sideways.
The fans immediately set off a peerless cheer, and the huge wave of sound instantly filled the Proud Schalke, which seemed to be boiling, and the sound swept through the stadium like a violent wind, and the Valencia players seemed to be defeated by this moment, and their faces were blue and dejected.
There was not much time left in the next game, and Valencia's players were all blocked in the backfield, trying to delay the time, so they barely survived the last minute of the first half, and finally passed the saddest first half, but how to spend the remaining 45 minutes? Valencia's players almost all dragged their legs down, at this moment they wanted to go straight off the field, and the next game had entered garbage time for them.
For Schalke, it was a celebration that they could finally reach the last eight, but they continued to attack in the second half, and only by finding confidence in these teams will they have a chance to go on and off.
There were no substitutions at the beginning of the second half, Magath was still waiting for the next goal, and he felt that he should take this opportunity to give the opponent some more blows before making a substitution, otherwise it would not be good if there were some other problems.
Sure enough, at the beginning of the second half, Schalke once again took the initiative on the field, and they began to attack wave after wave. In the 53rd minute, Ai Huan broke Mata's ball again, and then passed to Papadopoulos, who sent a cross from the left directly into the penalty area, the opponent's substitute goalkeeper attacked quickly, but did not hit the ball away, Farfan's quick shot actually hit the thigh of the opponent's substitute goalkeeper and bounced out again, Holterby quickly followed with a left-footed follow-up shot, the ball hit the inside of the right post of the goal, and hit the left post and bounced into the net, the score was pulled to three to one, and the total score became seven to two, at this time even the gods have no choice。
Magath finally happily sat back on the bench, he turned to Draxler and said, "You are ready to play, replace Ai Huan, this game is meaningless, let him have a good rest." ”
When Ai Huan left the game, there was immediately a cheer that was even more ferocious than just now, and countless people sang loudly "God is not working today" and Ai Huan also waved his hand to this game continuously, and it is always a supreme honor to enjoy the cheers of the fans.
Before Ai Huan walked down, he handed the pair of long armbands to Neuer, and then walked off the field quickly, Magat was already waiting for him with a cotton coat in his own hand, and when he saw Ai Huan, he immediately draped the coat on his body, and then laughed and said, "Awesome job! You destroyed them by yourself!"
Ai Huan also grinned, "They are not in good shape today. Then they sat next to Magath and watched the game together.
Ai Huan's end really gave Valencia a chance, and they immediately made an effective attack, especially Juan Mata immediately showed his quality. In the 58th minute, Matthew's cross from the left was mishandled by Metzelde, and Mata missed the goalkeeper's shot. Juan Mata then had another one-on-one chance but Neuer made an incredible save over the crossbar.
Schalke then gradually adapted to the battle without Eva, after all, they had one more person than the opponent, so they played more and more comfortably, and in the 63rd minute Escudero passed, and Jurado arced forward to shoot wide. In the 69th minute, Jurado's free kick from the right flank was driven to the front post, and Raul leaned over to head the ball into the goal, and the ball was collected by the substitute goalkeeper.
In the 75th minute, Matthew's cross from the left was not far from Escudero, and Mata's left-footed volley at the back post was met by Neuer. In the 80th minute, Joaquín's long-range shot hit the referee's heel and bounced off the bottom line.
A minute later, Farfan slashed in from the right side of the penalty area, his shot was saved by the opposing goalkeeper and then bounced off the outside of the right post.
However, Farfan is also out of the box today, anyway, he can't play in the domestic league in the future, so he will naturally focus all his energy on the Champions League, so he is still actively looking for opportunities, and because the physical exertion of the Valencia players is very strong, so they gradually lost the initiative again in the next game, and the game became more and more one-sided.
Ninety minutes later, the fourth referee raised his card to signal three minutes of stoppage time for the game, and in the third minute of injury time, that is, the last minute of the game, Schalke set off an attack again, Holterby's long-range shot hit the crossbar and popped up, Valencia's defenders did not drive the ball out at the first time, and Farfan, who had been looking for opportunities, suddenly appeared, forming a single knife to face the substitute goalkeeper, this time he chose to shoot into the far corner of the goal, the football finally rolled smoothly into the goal, and the score was locked again to four to one.
Farfan looked so excited after scoring the goal that he took off his shirt and jumped to the edge of the stands to celebrate, which also caused him to receive a yellow card, but no one cared about such a small problem, and the game ended and Schalke qualified.
