Chapter 139: The Red Flag Spreads Under the West Wind
Liu Han stumbled a little when he landed after blocking Carlos' shot, but he still rushed to the ball that was bounced high and headed it forward before the Real Madrid players arrived. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The Arsenal team took advantage of the Real Madrid players before they could return to the defense, and immediately launched a wave of counterattacks.
Henry jumped high and stretched out his feet to stop the ball that fell to the ground, and after Bergkamp's training and Liu Han's yoga training, Henry has now perfected some of the basic skills of football, and his flexibility and physical coordination have improved greatly compared to the beginning of the season.
However, Henry, who took the ball in the middle circle, did not have time to raise the speed, he was pulled down by Hierro, who arrived, and the veteran knew very well that Arsenal's young people must not be allowed to raise the speed at this time, for which he also paid the price of a yellow card, after all, the Arsenal team is in the counterattack, and the referee will definitely show a yellow card for this kind of foul.
Arsenal's counter-attack came to naught, and Hierro was saddled with a yellow card, meaning he will need to be careful in defence next.
The two teams continued to fight fiercely in the midfield, with Real Madrid's aggressive Morientes also returning to the midfield to participate in the pressing, and Raul also abandoned his usual grace and began to press Arsenal's players frantically in the front court.
Time is now on Arsenal's side, they have a two-goal lead and also have a certain advantage in midfield, after all, this emphasis on physical confrontation and passing and cutting is still more comfortable with Arsenal than Real Madrid.
As time passed, Real Madrid's players gradually became more and more impatient, although they began to put down their bodies and Arsenal in the midfield hand-to-hand combat, but overall they were still at a disadvantage, Liu Han's running ability was extremely good, and under his leadership, the Arsenal team always controlled the rhythm in the midfield.
Wenger kept walking back and forth on the sidelines, although the team now has the advantage, but Wenger, who participated in the Champions League final for the first time, is still a little worried, he is afraid that Real Madrid will suddenly launch an attack next, and then break through the Arsenal team, and then the Arsenal team collapsed, and the team was equalized or overtaken at the last moment, once he thought so, Wenger couldn't help but worry.
In the same way, Bosque on the other side is also walking around anxiously, compared to Wenger, Bosque is under more pressure, although he completed a legendary season this year, leading Real Madrid to successfully stage a counterattack in the season, but without the Champions League glory plus, maybe his head coach position can not sit down, because Bosque is not the chairman of the Sans family after all.
Liu Han sensitively sensed the anxiety of the whole Real Madrid team, he began to consciously retreat, and stopped the Arsenal team's attack a little, so that Real Madrid's three lines gradually distanced themselves.
Liu Han's purpose in his heart is actually very clear, that is, to end the suspense of this game as soon as possible, after most of the half-time contest with Real Madrid, Liu Han has clearly confirmed the strength of Real Madrid, maybe in the eyes of the outside world Real Madrid is strong, but Liu Han knows that such a team may play a very wonderful game in a smooth situation, but once it encounters adversity, this Real Madrid does not have too good performance, compared with the Arsenal team, Real Madrid lacks the blood and strength that football should have.
With the contraction of the Arsenal team's defense, the players on the Real Madrid field felt that their own attack began to suppress the Arsenal team, so their attacking line players began to attack the Arsenal defense without hesitation, and even the original left-back, now as a central defender, Carlos, also came to the front, and every player in the Brazilian has a heart to score.
It seems that Real Madrid has really begun to suppress the Arsenal team's defense, after all, their back line is close to the center circle, but Liu Han on the field knows very well that Real Madrid's loopholes have been completely exposed in this situation.
In the 62nd minute of the game, Real Madrid, who could not attack from close range, added long-range shots in front.
Guti picked up the ball and ignored Morientes' running and opted to shoot, but his shot was not blocked by Vieira in the first place, and the Frenchman was the bolt lock of the Arsenal defence today.
Vieira, who blocked the ball, handed the ball to Liu Han in front of him as soon as possible.
After Liu Han got the ball, he didn't look up at all and made a long pass to the left front, where Henry had already rushed towards the backfield of the Real Madrid team at high speed, and the Arsenal team instantly switched from defense to attack.
The Real Madrid players began to retreat frantically, but the Arsenal players around them also launched a counter-attack, and the two teams were intertwined like an army attacking and defending each other in an ancient battlefield.
Liu Han was also running towards Real Madrid's front at this time, but his speed was not fast at this time, in order not to give Henry a chance to threaten his own goal, Real Madrid's players retreated a little unscrupulously, making Liu Han, who was running behind, completely undefended.
At this time, Henry received the ball in the front court, and Liu Han's pass was relatively large, the purpose was to penetrate Real Madrid's defense as much as possible, which made Henry's position now close to the left touchline.
Henry didn't cut inside after taking the ball, although he knew that cutting inside was the easiest threat to Real Madrid's door, but if he cut inside, it would mean that he had to run diagonally, which would give the chasing Real Madrid players the opportunity to return to the defense, so Henry rushed directly to the bottom line with the ball, and he tried to wait for his teammates to also counterattack in place.
Real Madrid's defence finally came back to the bottom when Henry was about to dribble to the bottom line, Hierro retreated to the central defender position to protect the penalty area, and the faster Redondo was closest to Henry at this time, and he chose to go straight forward to force Henry.
After Henry reached the bottom line, he stabilized the ball and observed the running position of his teammates, Bergkamp in the back point of the Real Madrid penalty area had the least number of people around, so Henry planned to pass this point, but he underestimated the speed of Redondo's defense and his defensive awareness, when Henry chose to cross with his left foot, Redondo suddenly jumped up, stretched out his right foot, and just rubbed Henry's cross.
The ball that was rubbed by Redondo changed its line and did not fly towards Bergkamp at the back post as Henry had thought, but flew high and landed outside the box.
When everyone on the field looked up to observe the landing point of the ball, Liu Han had already reached the vicinity of the landing point of the ball, and there was not a single defender by his side.
Liu Han stepped on the turf with his right foot and raised his left foot high, and his body, which had undergone long-term yoga and stump training, showed his excellent flexibility and body coordination.
Liu Han's arms were outstretched, controlling his body's balance, and his long left leg hit the almost vertically falling soccer ball with the same precision as a sideways axe.
The football, which was not falling fast, changed its route in an instant after Liu Han's left-footed volley, and flew quickly towards Real Madrid's goal.
Casillas was very focused, he jumped sideways, trying to block Liu Han's shot, but Liu Han's shot was so well prepared, making Liu Han's force very accurate, and the football flew into the goal like a cannonball from the corner between the goal post and the crossbar, a real blind corner shot.
Some of Real Madrid's players couldn't help but fall to the ground in pain, and Liu Han's hat-trick has completely defeated this lacking fighting Real Madrid team in a sense.
Liu Han, who scored the goal, did not celebrate the goal as usual this time, and he ran towards a piece of stand, where several insignificant five-star red flags were waving throughout the field.
Liu Han, who ran to the stands, received the five-star red flag thrown by several Chinese fans, and when Liu Han ran over, the fans immediately packed up the red flag in their hands, because they were afraid that the red flag would be blown away by the wind, and these fans even wrapped the Leica camera in their hands in the red flag.
Liu Han, who got the red flag, threw the camera back to the Chinese fans sitting on the edge of the stands, and then he held the red flag high above his head, when a westerly wind blew, and the five-star red flag, which had never been raised at the Stade de France, fluttered in the wind.
As the so-called France competes, the red flag sweeps the west wind. (To be continued.) )
