The penalty shoot-out is about to officially begin, and everyone except the goalkeeper is standing in the center circle, while the goalkeeper is standing outside the penalty area. Those players who are standing in the center circle are naturally people from their respective countries standing together, shoulder to shoulder, looking at the goal in front of them. The manager, the substitutes, and the work players stood on the sidelines.

Zhang Shujie was the first to walk up with the ball under the watchful eye of everyone.

"The Chinese team made the first free throw, and Zhang Shujie was the first player to take the penalty. As the number one superstar of the player and the captain of this game, Zhang Shujie should take the lead!"

Wang Shihan looked at him intently, with his hands on his chest, praying for him, Chen Hui and Shen Hao also looked at him, the Chinese players were watching him, all the Chinese fans were watching him, and even the German players and fans were watching him.

Zhang Shujie bent down to place the ball at the penalty spot, and then slowly retreated. The pressure is on him now, and if he scores the penalty, then the burden on his team-mates behind him is less, and if he doesn't, it goes without saying how much pressure will be on his team-mates who take the penalty.

Neuer waved his arms in front of the goal, trying to interfere with Zhang Shujie, who stared at him quietly, quietly waiting for the referee's whistle.

The scene was very quiet, and everyone seemed to be able to hear their own heartbeat. Wang Shihan's breathing rhythm began to speed up, and he whispered in his mouth: "Ajie......"

"Beep!" the referee blew the whistle, and Zhang Shujie ran slowly, stepped on the ball with his left foot, and raised his right leg. Based on the offset of his body and the magnitude of his swing legs, Neuer roughly guessed which angle he should kick the ball towards the goal.

Wang Shihan looked at Zhang Shujie with wide eyes, in normal times, she would definitely close her eyes in fright, but now, she must see Zhang Shujie finish the penalty with her own eyes. She believed that Zhang Shujie would be punished.

Zhang Shujie touched the ball with the instep of his foot, and Neuer fell to the left.

However, the ball did not fly to either side of the goal. Zhang Shujie was very deceptive at the moment of kicking, pretending to kick the ball to both sides of the goal, but in fact, the ball gently hung to the middle, the ball speed was not very fast, but the parabola drawn was very beautiful, like a rainbow, falling into the net.

From the stands, there was a burst of exclamations from the fans. He Wei also exclaimed: "This ...... Zhang Shujie kicked out a spoon penalty! What kind of strong psychological quality does this have to be to dare to use this way to make free throws when he is the first to play? Here we really have to praise Zhang Shujie, he has really reached another level of star! Today's number one, worthy of the name!"

In the penalty shootout, the Chinese team temporarily led Germany 1:0. After the free throw, Zhang Shujie slowly walked in the direction of his teammate, during which Kroos walked out of the German crowd, and the two passed each other and briefly exchanged eyes.

Chen Hui applauded Zhang Shujie, and secretly said in his heart: "This kid ......"

Wang Shihan's eyes followed Zhang Shujie, and after seeing his fiancé score such a beautiful penalty, he was secretly happy.

The first player in Germany was Kroos, who stood in front of goal, not waving his arms like Neuer, just hanging his arms to his side and looking at Kroos. He guessed that Kroos would play the bottom right corner, which corresponds to the direction of the goalkeeper, which is the bottom left corner, because Kroos likes to play here when he usually shoots, and he usually gets nine out of ten.

After the referee's whistle blew, Kroos ran for a free throw. He really punished Ma Junqiang in the lower left corner, Ma Junqiang also judged the right direction, and his fingertips also gently wiped the ball, how can the angle of the free throw is too tricky, even if Ma Junqiang touches the ball, it is useless.

The ball lies in the goal. At 1:1, Kroos pulled a point back for Germany.

"Cross is too stable. Maybe many people thought that he would play this corner, Ma Junqiang also guessed it, and pounced, but he couldn't save it. ”

Ma Junqiang shook his head and walked out of the penalty area, while Kroos walked back to the cheers of all the German fans. Chen Zihua walked out of the queue of the Chinese team and walked into the penalty area.

He Wei said: "The second penalty player of the Chinese team is Chen Zihua, Chen Zihua is also a player with a very strong ability to score goals, An Rong arranged him to take a penalty, it is not surprising at all, it is completely expected." ”

Zhou Ying was a little nervous, she held Wang Shihan's left hand with her right hand, and Gu Qingqing's right hand with her left hand, looking at the red number eight who was about to make a free throw.

Neuer still waved his arms in front of the goal, Chen Zihua looked at the referee, then looked at Neuer, and then aimed at the upper left corner of the goal. You must know that when taking a penalty, the goalkeeper is the best at observing the action of the penalty, even if the action is too small, they can see it.

The referee blew the whistle, Chen Zihua ran up, raised his foot to shoot, Neuer pounced towards Chen Zihua's left, that is, his right, judging from Chen Zihua's shooting posture, Neuer thought that he should not make a mistake. It's not like Chen Zihua will also have a spoon penalty like Zhang Shujie.

Of course, Chen Zihua did not use a spoon to take the penalty, and when he shot the goal, he shook his ankle, and the ball flew in the opposite direction and rolled into the goal against the turf.

2:1! Chen Zihua once again led the score for the Chinese team.

There were cheers from the Chinese fans in the stands, cheering for Chen Zihua's goal, and Zhou Ying finally breathed a sigh of relief. Chen Zihua walked back to the crowd, and Germany's Muller was about to play.

Manuel Neuer walked out, Ma Junqiang stood back in front of goal, Muller set the ball and then took a few steps back. Ma Junqiang's standing posture was the same as before, his eyes staring at Muller.

The referee blew the whistle and Muller ran up.

He kicked the ball to the upper right corner of Ma Junqiang, and Ma Junqiang, who pounced on the ball, judged the right direction, he stretched out his right arm, and the palm of his right hand touched the ball. When Muller saw that the ball he shot was saved by Ma Junqiang, his heart suddenly cooled.

Ma Junqiang was a little happy, did the ball save? Unfortunately, it didn't. Hitting the ball does not mean that the ball is saved, the ball finally fell in the goal, Ma Junqiang lay on the ground, looked at the ball in the goal line, slapped the turf fiercely, and scolded in his mouth: "It's really grass!"

Chinese fans also heard bursts of regret, and many Chinese players also pillowed their heads with their hands. Chen Hui also said: "It's a pity, it's just a little bit close." ”

He Wei also said: "Ma Junqiang slid the ball, but Muller's shot was very powerful, and it was a pity that Ma Junqiang couldn't save it." ”

Xu Yang said: "It's really a pity. However, Ma Junqiang's first two penalties were judged in the right direction, and the second penalty was almost saved, so we should believe more and give him more confidence. ”

The score is 2:2, and the two teams are still tied at the moment. The third player to play in the Chinese team is Xu Zhixin, the youngest of all the players in the team.
