Chapter 123: Adriano-Goal!

Ronaldinho swung up with his right leg in front of the penalty area, a standard long-range shot!

Inter's backline suddenly tensed.

After scoring a goal, Barcelona saw hope and their attack became more and more intense, and although Inter Milan have been doing well defensively, everyone is feeling the pressure.

Carlos went up to defend Ronaldinho.

The Brazilian's right foot slammed out, but it was a disguise, and then he gave the football to his right side, and Messi received the football!

Nice transfer!

Messi swiped the ball at his feet and tried to dribble forward, but, in the face of Stankovic's close defence, he dunked the ball back and hoisted it into the box.

Samuel Eto'o jumped high in the box, but the ball was too high for him to reach.

Cesar took the football in the air, he did not throw the ball immediately, but held the football in his arms, he wanted to stabilize the situation, Inter Milan was under great pressure during this time, and the team needed to catch their breath.

***********

"It won't go on like this!" Banderas said anxiously from the sidelines.

Li Ang clasped his hands and did not speak, this is the stalemate stage!

If Barcelona can score again and close the gap to one goal, the situation will be even worse!

However, if Inter can withstand the pressure and hold on for more than 10 minutes, as long as the game goes to more than 80 minutes, Inter Milan still has a two-goal lead, then it will be the Barcelona people who are anxious.

Of course, there is the most perfect possibility, that is, Inter Milan get a great opportunity to counterattack, score another goal, and open the score gap to three goals again, then, the victory of this game is in hand, and the top of Europe is in sight!

Inter Milan have used up three substitutions, Leon has done the limit of what a manager can do, and now it's up to his disciples to withstand the pressure.

***********

Cesar drove the ball forward with a big foot.

Adriano had the upper hand in the scramble with Puyol, and he fed the ball back to Stankovic, who chested the ball back and Modric got on the ball.

The Croatian youngster took two steps forward, and in the face of Deco's pressing, he chose to pass back, and Zanetti just got the ball when he saw the face of Iniesta, who came to press.

Zanetti scrambled forward for a half-high ball and Adriano ran back, stopping it with his chest before Puyol was behind him.

Puyol has been sticking to Adriano behind him, and speculation is being made about whether Adriano will continue to pass the ball back or choose to stop it.

The ball slowly fell from Adriano's chest, and without waiting for the ball to hit the ground, he raised his left foot, knocked the ball back with his heel, and then turned beautifully, and shook Puyol beautifully!

"Beautiful!"

"Adriano showed amazing footwork!"

The Inter fans cheered and cheered for Adriano's non-stop pass.

***********

"This is Inter's chance!"

In the roar of the commentator, Adriano took a step with his long legs and was about to break through with the ball forward.

Barcelona pressed very high, although Puyol is a central defender, but he is out of the penalty area, and he is already the last defender of Barcelona, behind goalkeeper Valdés and the goal.

Puyol knew that Adriano must not be allowed to break in, as long as he did, it would be a single knife!

For a goalscorer like Adriano, the answer to what a single goal means, is obvious!

Puyol strode to follow, but neither the physical confrontation, nor the speed and impact of the game, could match Adriano.

Seeing that Adriano was about to break away from his defense, the Barcelona captain's eyes were cold, and he reached out and grabbed Adriano's jersey and pulled the Brazilian center forward to the ground, who was accelerating.

"Foul! Puyol pulled Adriano down!"

"The Barcelona captain is the last defender!"

The narrator yelled.

Then, everyone saw the referee on duty, Hauge, blew the whistle in his mouth, and ran as he ran, with one hand in his pocket.

He pulled out a card from his pocket, and the color was: Red!

***********

"Red card! Hauge showed Puyol a red card!"

"There is no doubt about it! Puyol is the last defender of Barcelona! He pulled Adriano down! There is no problem with this red card! Barcelona captain is sent off, Barcelona suffers a major blow!"

"Well done!" Leon waved his arm vigorously on the sidelines!

Barcelona's players gathered around to plead for their captain, and with less than 20 minutes to go, they were two goals down, and now the captain was sent off, which was a catastrophe for Barcelona.

While his teammates surrounded the referee to plead, Puyol took a blank look at the night sky at the Stade de France, and then the Barcelona captain hung his head and slowly walked to the sidelines.

When he reached out and pulled Adriano, he guessed the result!

He knew he was going to be sent off, but Puyol didn't hesitate to reach out!

As the captain of the team, he used his own way of being sent off to reserve a glimmer of hope for Barcelona, even if that glimmer of hope was so slim!

It takes courage to make this decision!

It's a cruel choice!

The Barcelona fans in the stands applauded and gave applause to their captain, knowing that at this moment, there was no one more uncomfortable in their hearts than Puyol!

***********

In the 79th minute of the game, Barcelona captain Puyol fouled Adriano and was sent off by referee Hauge.

Now, there are 10 men on both sides on the field.

Rijkaard hugged Puyol, who had walked to the sidelines, knowing that his captain had done his best.

Inter Milan were given a free-kick opportunity in a very good position.

Adriano picked up the ball and he stood at the penalty spot.

"It's a good chance for Inter! Adriano's powerful free-kick has a chance to play!"

"Puyol won the last chance for Barcelona with his own way of being sent off!

The camera gives Adriano a close-up, and the Brazilian has a serious expression and words in his mouth.

The camera then swept over the walls of Barcelona, and everyone's expressions were very serious.

***********

Referee Hauge's whistle sounds.

Adriano run!

One-step!

Two steps!

Three steps!

Shot!

The soccer ball lifted off the ground, like a cannonball, above the human wall, and then flew straight to the goal!

Barcelona goalkeeper Valdés was in full swing, he watched the white light coming, and he flew to pounce!

Adriano's shot is powerful and the ball is extremely fast!

Valdés felt like he was touching a football, and he was first happy in his heart, then his face fused.

The shot was so powerful that he couldn't completely stop the ball even though it touched the ball!

The ball was touched by his left hand and continued forward!

Forward!

And slammed into the net!

"Addddddddddriano-Gooooooooaal!" Ferrari jumped to his feet and let out a frantic roar, "It's Adriano's night!
