Chapter 14: Rock You! (3)

"Beep-" With a whistle, Gao Yi knocked the ball behind him and rushed towards the opponent's half without looking back. The speed is no worse than that of Blake.

A roar from McPherson came from behind "Will", which was the signal before he passed, Gao Yi looked back as he ran, only to see a ball shadow in his field of vision suddenly rising, higher and faster than he expected, and the direction was closer to his right. He bent a slight angle to the right, and once again ran recklessly. Until McPherson's "Will" sounded for the second time, which was the signal before the ball was about to hit the ground.

Gao Yi looked back again, and the ball fell to a position more than one person high, and the direction was further to the right. Gao Yi changed lines again to accelerate, and in the blink of an eye, the ball swept over his head. That's when he noticed that a player on the opposite side was rushing towards the ball from a position closer than him.

Gao Yi could only struggle to increase his speed, and his speed did increase again.

Gao Yi's self-analysis is that one of the reasons for the recent improvement in his football skills is the fifteen kilograms of weight he lost. With the same musculature, a lighter body weight means faster acceleration, speed, more explosiveness, more agility, and even more weightlifting and precision.

However, no matter how fast Gao Yi is, he can't exceed the flying speed of the ball, so the distance between him and the ball is getting farther and farther, while the distance between the opponent and the ball is getting closer and closer. But—

Never overestimate the ability of an amateur player, perhaps because of Gao Yi's fierce appearance, which brought a strong sense of pressure to the opponent, but he didn't even rub the ball skin when it was close at hand.

The ball went over his instep and the opponent missed. Gao Yi followed the ball closely, and the wind swept past him, not even letting him catch a single hair.

The "pop" ball fell to the grass and bounced again, bounced to a position at a height of one person, and the speed decreased.

By the time the ball fell back to a half-man position, Gao Yi had already rushed to the bottom of it, he picked up his long legs and knocked it with the outside instep, the ball changed direction before flying out of the bottom line, bounced on the ground, and fell towards the big penalty area.

The stadium in 1903 was not much different from later generations, with the midfield line, the center circle, the sideline, the bottom line, the big and small penalty areas, the penalty arc, the penalty spot, these have all appeared, the goal has also been equipped with nets, and even according to the new rules introduced last year, even the size of the large and small penalty areas is exactly the same as that of later generations. In other words, the ball is about 18 yards away from the goalkeeper who is now standing next to the post, which is 16.5 meters away.

For some reason, the goalkeeper hesitated and did not rush to the football at the first time.

Gao Yi braked the car before sliding off the baseline, and he stumbled under his feet, but instead of falling, he completed the steering and chased towards the football. At this time, the football was bouncing and rolling in the big penalty area, but it was unswervingly rolling towards the small penalty area and the bottom line. At this point, the goalkeeper finally moved, he half-crouched, spread his arms, and staggered towards the football like a goose. The distance between him and the football was 5.5 meters, but they were walking in opposite directions, and the distance was getting shorter and shorter, and the next moment it seemed that they were about to meet.

However, there was no more moment, Gao Yi's foot appeared in the back of the ball, he gently flicked the ball away from this dangerous position near the baseline, and then he only needed to step slightly in the direction of the penalty spot, he could go around the unstable and slow goalkeeper to open the angle of the shot. But—

Gao Yi is also an amateur player, nervousness, inertia or some other completely unknown reason, instantly affected his decision, he actually got up to shoot, and at the same time as he got up, he immediately regretted it, because the rational part of his brain told him that he should go towards the penalty spot instead of shooting, so the two commands were superimposed on his feet almost at the same time, and he not only shot with his feet, but also volleyed vigorously, and in the direction of the penalty spot.

There was a "pop", and in the next moment, Gao Yi had already rushed in front of the goalkeeper due to inertia, running parallel to the goal line in front of the goal. However, it is strange why does he have a ball on him?

The ball was first on his stomach, then down and on his thigh, and then fell to the grass, bouncing at his feet—

At the moment when Gao Yi shot just now, the goalkeeper reversed the previous clumsy and sluggish normality and completed a magical save, he pounced on the close, vigorous, high-speed, and flying football outside the penalty area again, and pounced on Gao Yi's body.

Gao Yi did not hesitate, got up and lightly padd under the ball, and the ball changed the direction of travel, crossed the goal line, and hit the net. Less than a minute into the game, he scored.

Amateur matches are like that, always full of mistakes, and the two sides are really competing to see who has fewer mistakes and are less fatal.

The tsunami-like cheers of the landslide reached Gao Yi's ears, in fact, from the first time he touched the ball, the cheers rang out, but he was deaf to the high tension at the time.

Gao Yi spread his arms slightly, thinking about what version of the celebration should be used, whether it was Ronaldo's silence or Thierry Henry's sideways kneeling.

"Beep-" The referee's whistle sounded at the right time, however, to everyone's surprise, another "beep" sounded.

Gao Yi looked at the source of the sound with a puzzled face, the first border patrol was holding a flag, and the whistle was blown by him. As a new thing that appeared only ten years ago, the referee and lineman system is still improving, and it is obvious that the power of linemen in this era is greater than that of later generations, at least they can blow the whistle.

The offside rule used at this time is an improved version of the Cambridge rules in 1848, and the time standard for judging whether it is offside is changed from the moment when the attacking receiver receives the ball to the moment when the offensive passer takes up, but the position of the receiver and the opponent's goal line is still the same as required by the Cambridge rules, and there need to be three defenders, that is, in addition to the goalkeeper, Gao Yi must have two defenders behind him, rather than only one as in later generations.

What Gao Yi can be sure of now is that there is at least one defender behind him, and there has been a fight between the two, but is there really no other opposing player behind him? You know, he rushed into the opponent's half of the field when he kicked off in midfield, can he really be so fast that he can leave the opponent's entire backline behind in an instant? However, there is no video playback in this era, and I can only consider myself unlucky when I encounter this kind of thing.

As for whether it's a black whistle or not, the devil knows. The referee of the match was a Belgian, and the two linesmen were Swedes and Italians. This arrangement is of course unfavorable to Gao Yi and them, but this is also a helpless thing, there are not many people in Shanghai who can enforce football games, and the FC team is a national team, and there are people of any nationality in it, no matter how they are chosen, there will always be people of the same nationality as the referee and the linesman.

The referee ran towards the first lineman, and the two discussed for a while, but the referee stretched out his hand and pointed to a position not far behind the center circle, which was probably the position of Gao Yi when he was offside just now.

If it was another position, Gao Yi would admit it, but this position is too bullying, and the FC team is not an Italian team, and it can't be made offside until half time.

Gao Yi ran over, and at this time, there were still many people in the surrounding audience who were still cheering without knowing the truth, he pressed down with both hands, but made a Ronaldo celebration gesture, seeing his movements, the cheers suddenly became louder.

The Scottish players also surrounded at the same time, and even some substitutes ran over. Gao Yi saw Keswick also enter the field from a distance, and was glaring at him, probably asking him what to do.

How to deal with Gao Yi is also completely clueless, compared with the experience of later generations, even if the referee makes a mistake, it can only be wrong, no matter how much trouble it is, it will not help, but it is easy to make the players upset and irritable. However, in this day and age, in such an amateur game, it seems necessary to fight, otherwise others will really think of their team as Hello Kitty.

Just when Gao Yi was about to make up his mind, someone had already made a decision for him in advance. One of the substitute defenders, McLeod, smashed a punch into the face of the first lineman, and the opponent immediately fell down with teeth.

The next moment, the group fight suddenly broke out, and the FC team of the Red Hats seemed to have been prepared, and their people secretly surrounded the outer circle. Gao Yi didn't even have time to join his own people before he was blocked by them halfway.

There are three people on the other side, in the shape of a zigzag bag. Gao Yi spread his hands to them, what does this have to do with him, he was only halfway through the run, and he couldn't even say a word. However, the other party obviously wanted to beat him.

Gao Yi shrugged his shoulders, since he had no choice, he could only do one game.
