Chapter 227: Let Balotelli bow down
Fans and viewers who are familiar with Li Xuan's law enforcement style know very well that Li Xuan's law enforcement style is very distinctive, that is, he is never ambiguous, let alone conformist!
Li Xuan will give timely punishments to any behavior that he thinks is worthy of punishment, and at the same time, he will not be merciful, he will never be soft, and he will not deliberately consider what kind of occasion, as for the object of punishment, he will not care whether it will be an ordinary player, a superstar, a coach, or even a fan or staff.
As long as it affects the game that Li Xuan enforces, and the behavior is enough to foul, Li Xuan will send a very accurate penalty in time, which has always been the norm.
And it is such a firm attitude towards law enforcement that can be regarded as one of the reasons why Li Xuan can stand out among enough referees and become a more concerned and special one.
In general, his law enforcement style is the closest to the ultimate goal of "fairness, justice and openness" in competitive sports, but it is also a serious style that countless players and match participants love and hate!
So, when Balotelli of the Italian team, in a relatively inexplicable and sudden situation, suddenly had no time to recover the action, and cleanly knocked over Li Xuan, who happened to be standing there, it immediately made countless Italian supporters can't help but chuckle in their hearts and become extremely nervous!
Many worried fans even quickly thought of the scenes of various punishments that Li Xuan had enforced at the beginning, especially the clear scenes where Li Xuan directly gave red cards to the players who provoked him.
As a result, these Italian fans, almost all of them reacted after Li Xuan fell, first reacted and let out a subconscious cry of surprise and nervousness, and then quickly and anxiously discussed!
Compared with the worried fans in Italy, in fact, some players on the field reacted almost worriedly at the moment.
Cassano and Motta, two Italian players who were relatively close to Li Xuan, rushed up in time almost quickly, and both stretched out their arms to pull up Li Xuan, who fell to the ground.
They all showed a look of panic and even pleading and cordial confession, obviously worried that Li Xuan would immediately give Balotelli a yellow card or a red card that was still lying on the ground and did not get up.
After all, Li Xuan can indeed do this kind of thing, which makes these Italian players quite scared.
And Li Xuan, who fell to the ground with Balotelli's kick, did not refuse Cassano and Mota, who came to support him very enthusiastically, and reluctantly stood up with a little helplessness with the help of the other party, first moved his body carefully, and then briefly checked whether the fall just now had hurt another unconscious place, or whether something had fallen on his body.
After a while, after confirming that it was basically fine, Li Xuan exhaled heavily, and looked at Balotelli, who had already been pulled up by his teammates and was drooping his head as if he had made a mistake!
At this time, Li Xuan couldn't help but suddenly find that it seemed that the players of the entire Italian team, except for the goalkeeper, almost all appeared beside him at this moment, and they were all very worried and with a little pleading look, they seemed to want to stop talking, but they were all firmly staring at his hand movements, waiting for his reaction state!
Li Xuan frowned, but then immediately stretched out, and quickly understood the worries of these Italian players. He couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart again, a little proud of the strong referee authority that the players feared.
Then, he went straight to Balotelli!
"Mr. Referee, he just wanted to shovel the football, but in the end it was only slightly off the direction, and he didn't have time to restrain his body, but he didn't mean to target you!"
"Mario tried very hard to stop in the end, he definitely didn't mean to hurt you!"
"Please forgive him for his behavior this time, it was really a coincidental accident just now, no one expected that the ball would land so coincidentally and just slide so close to the position behind you, he was just trying to get the ball back!"
β¦β¦
Several Italian players, when they found that Li Xuan was gradually approaching Balotelli, immediately expressed their opinions and proofs, trying to immediately change Li Xuan's possible foul decision.
They were obviously very worried at the moment that Li Xuan would make a severe punishment, which would have a severe impact on Balotelli and the Italian side.
However, Li Xuan next just stood in front of Balotelli and simply patted the other party's shoulder: "Hey, don't worry so much, I haven't been so excessive, I won't treat this accident as a foul." In fact, I personally have a lot of responsibility for this collision. If it weren't for the fact that I was distracted by thinking about something before, I would have had a greater chance and reaction to complete the dodge in time, and then I wouldn't have been in the situation I am in now. So, Mario, you don't need to have any mental burden, it's okay, you can keep the ball and attack. β
Li Xuan easily patted Balotelli on the shoulder, and then turned his face to smile at the rest of the shocked Italian players: "Don't watch, it seems that in your impression, I am like a stupid referee who is super strict and doesn't understand human feelings at all." This is the final of the European Championship, so I will not let these accidents, which have nothing to do with the essence of the football game, affect the quality of the whole final. Now, you guys just don't go around me, get back to normal and don't keep the Spanish team waiting. β
As he spoke, Li Xuan immediately made a gesture and motioned for the game to continue.
And at this time, Balotelli, who seemed to be obviously relieved, immediately passed by him again, and then made a very polite apology: "I'm sorry, I should have restrained my actions in advance just now, I hope I didn't hurt you." β
"No, your body is strong, but my body is not a papier-mΓ’chΓ© shelf, so it's not a big deal. Let's go to the game, Mario!" Li Xuan continued to wave his hand, still unimpressed.
Hearing this, Balotelli nodded again, and together with his teammates who were also relieved in an instant, he rearranged the lineup and continued the game.
However, after Balotelli returned to his position next, he still subconsciously looked at Li Xuan again, and at this moment, his eyes seemed to show a little emotion and convincing, as if he was sincerely admiring Li Xuan's atmosphere just now, and also self-examining for his recklessness just now.
At the same time, the Spanish team's central defender Pique, who was preparing to defend Balotelli, also took a serious look at Balotelli's expression, and seemed to instantly think of some kind of means in favor of the Spanish team! )
