Chapter Seventy-Seven: Winning and Losing

"Almost! Almost, Wang Zhen's sixteenth goal in the League Cup and the ninth goal of the main match almost came. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info“

In fact, the angle of the ball was very tricky, towards the bottom right corner of the goal, and even goalkeeper Alexander Ivanov was shaken away.

However, another centre-back, Oleg Pasnin, rushed in to clear the ball and kicked the ball off the touchline.

To get the ball out, Pasning hit the post directly.

Lokomotiv's team doctor immediately rushed out, and the referee motioned for him to enter.

is worthy of Russia, even their team doctor is a strong man comparable to a brown bear......

After a brief check-up, the team doctor put an OK jump on Pasnin's calf, which is commonly known as a band-aid......

Pasning didn't shrug either, stood up and moved, trotted two steps on the spot, signaling the referee not to leave the field.

The referee signals, corner kick.

Corner kicks are an important means of scoring goals in positional battles.

Wang Zhen is of course the focus of attention, but Orr and Michael Zucker's headers are not weak at all.

To defend the header, Lokomotiv's forwards all withdrew into the box.

The football was kicked out by Ribery, and Wang Zhen immediately jumped.

He was joined by Lokomotiv centre-forward Marat Izmailov, forward Dmitry Hokhnov and centre-back Sergij Ignashevic.

Left and right, caught by the striker and the central defender goalkeeper!

In this case, Wang Zhen still completed the header, but it was slightly high and the crossbar and flew into the net on the goal.

"The central axis of the entire lokomotiv all retreated into the penalty area, and all four people on the central axis participated in the defense of Wang Zhen, but Wang Zhen still completed the header, this kind of player, maybe the favorite player of the Russians, but they certainly don't want to see such a person appear in the opponent's lineup."

In the 37th minute, goalkeeper Alexander Ivanov saved Wang Zhen's shot in a thrilling way, got up and looked at the situation, and drove the ball directly to the front.

Lokomotiv, who had already pressed forward, had a partial numerical advantage on the halfway line, with Vladimir Maminov and midfielder Dmitry Hokhnov combining to win the ball.

There is no intention to test or infiltrate at all, just hang it to the front.

Valery Kremelov, the second centre-forward at the back of the two-centre-forward system, headed in the box and the ball flew into the box.

Marat Izmailov met the flying football and fired straight into the gap!

"Izmaylov's shot!" The Russian commentator shouted excitedly.

However, Wang Erlei pounced one step earlier, Wang Erlei, who grew up in the northeast, has adapted to the feeling of playing football in the snow since he was a child, and he spread the ball in his arms with one lunge step.

"Oh! This shot is very threatening, almost no adjustment, direct volley, this is the best offensive opportunity in this game in Moscow, and it is also the most threatening shot given by Lokomotiv so far in this game, as a result, Wang Erlei lived up to expectations and directly saved the football! ”

In the first half, neither side was able to play again.

German Radio 2 commentator Boll also sighed: "It seems that Wang Zhen is a little uncomfortable with the snow battle, although Wang Zhen's performance in this game is much better than in Zenit, but it still does not show that the league or the League Cup held in the summer is as strong." ”

At halftime, Klopp just asked everyone to check their temperature and not catch a cold.

In his plan, in this Moscow game, a draw or even a loss is not unacceptable, but he did not expect that Lokomotiv also chose a conservative 442 lineup, which was suppressed by Mainz, and Lokomotiv was not in a hurry to attack, and I don't know why.

In fact, it's not that the locomotive doesn't attack, it's that the locomotive doesn't have the ability to attack.

What lokomotiv is stronger than Zenit, it's all the Moscow media bragging, if it weren't for Zenit's too many injuries in the first half, it would be the turn of Moscow's top two to dominate the league?

In Russia, the only one who can really be Mainz's opponent is Zenit.

In the middle of the second half, Lokomotiv fans were the first to go on a rampage, and they began to curse the fans of Mainz from the side of the team across the aisle.

Although I don't understand what is said, the Mainz fans are not stupid, and then they began to scold back, do you think that if there are few people, they will encourage you?

All of a sudden, the court exploded directly, and the sound was so noisy.

On the pitch, Mainz continued to control the situation but still failed to score.

In the seventy-third minute, Wang Erlei threw the ball and threw the ball to Warnes, who quickly dribbled the ball up, and among the three defenders who entered Mainz this year, the strongest at his peak was undoubtedly Link, but the best state at the moment was Warnes.

Warnes remains one of the best defenders in Germany and the world, and he was quick to get past Valery Kremelov's pressing.

The Lokomotiv players seemed to be a little uncool, wanting to disrupt Mainz's attack in the frontcourt, and there were many people who stepped forward to press, but Warnes still carried the ball and kept cutting up.

When a defender comes up with an assist, the farther he dribbles with the ball, the worse the opponent's formation will be, and there is no reason for Warnes to move the ball.

After getting past Milan Obvadovic in defence, Warnes was well placed in the front court.

Faced with a plethora of options in midfield, Warnes handed the ball to the most mature of Ribery.

Ribery got the ball and immediately began a new one-on-one break.

After getting past Vladimir Maminov and centre-back Ignashevic, Ribery crosses!

Because it was a fast breakthrough and the formation was pulled, the defender next to Wang Zhen was not the central defender, but the locomotive to get the forward Dmitry Hokhnov!

Khokhnov's height is too short, and this time, it was Wang Zhen's most comfortable jump in the audience, almost unattended.

In this case, the air only belongs to Wang Zhen.

The football was approaching, Wang Zhen turned his head suddenly, and with a lion shaking his head, the football flew towards the goal.

Goalkeeper Alexander Ivanov didn't expect Wang Zhen to shake his head with a lion, he pounced in the wrong direction, and when the football flew towards the goal, it was too late for him to change direction, and he fell directly to the ground.

As the football approached, the pitch was still buzzing.

The next moment, the football flies straight into the goal!

At this moment, all the noise on the court disappeared, and only the cold wind remained.

“tooooooooooor――! Wang! The ninth goal of the League Cup came as scheduled, and he had already left the second place in the scorer list by five goals, even if the second and third combined, there were not as many goals as him, and if you count the qualifying goals, his goals were exactly the number of goals scored by the other four in the top five scorers combined! ”

"Wang Zhen! Wonderful header! The never-ending noise of the entire engine stadium disappeared in this moment! Lokomotiv knew that their team had no chance, although it was only one goal, but this goal directly destroyed Lokomotiv! ”

It's hard to be able to silence a stadium for three seconds, even though after three seconds, the overwhelming scolding is even louder.

"The Lokomotiv fans are not as cold as the weather, on the contrary, they are hot, there are people in the south stand who light up red smoke, and there seems to be a clash between the fans in the east and south stands, hopefully it will not affect the game."

In the end, there was no second goal in the game, relying on a goal from Wang Zhen, Mainz won 1-0 against Lokomotiv Moscow at the Engine Stadium.
