510 Keju Contest (5)
Throughout the first half, he was sweating and rushing back and forth at high speed, so his physical strength and energy decreased significantly in the second half. When passing people with the ball, many technical actions are out of shape due to lack of physical strength and concentration, and there are many mistakes.
The Slender Husband Keju team seized the opportunity many times and carried out counterattacks, but due to the lack of troops invested in the attack, they were easily blocked by the excellent back line of the Imperial Royal Keju team.
The competition then entered the anxious stage of your scramble, and although you tried your best, you couldn't make any achievements.
Noriman knew that holding the game to penalties was his opponent, the slender man. In the penalty phase, the technical advantage of the Royal Keju team will be gone, and the two sides will stand on the same starting line, letting fate decide the winner.
Obviously, this is unfair to the Royal Keju team.
So, Dianman gritted his teeth, once again sacrificed his housekeeping skills, and rushed on the court. However, even if he tried his best, it was in vain - the madmen of the Slender Man Keju Team were too good to run, and after one another, and after another, and after another, he even felt that the Slender Man Keju Team was not just five people, but ten, fifty people. But in fact, there are only five people on the other side, but they can always come to fill in time after being passed.
In a trance, Dianman felt like a moth, and every time the moth gnawed a hole in his underwear, the slender man would fill it. The moths gnaw again, they mend it again, and the moths not only fail to bite the clothes, but the underwear becomes thicker and harder after patches and patches, so thick that the moths can't bite through, and it's so hard that they can't gnaw it.
A strong sense of powerlessness surged up in the bottom of Dianman's heart, "Mastermother! This ball can't be kicked. ”
The whole game and the overtime that followed, ended one after another in the despair of the pawn. Following the semi-finals, the penalty shootout once again appeared on the stage of this year's Keju Cup.
The Imperial Royal Keju Team was the first to appear, and the first person they sent was Kwon Seung. As a veteran who enlisted in the army at the age of fifteen, he participated in many major battles such as the crusade against Xiliang and Qiangdao, and went to fight outside the Saiwai. Needless to say, his psychological quality, and it is precisely because of his calm and steady personality that the team chose him as the first free thrower to bear great pressure.
He walked to the dragon gate with the rattan ball in his hand, placed the rattan ball neatly on the penalty spot, prayed a few words to the Virgin Mary, and made a cross on his chest. He glanced at the goal, raised his foot without hesitation, and the arch of his foot touched the ball with a feint to trick the goalkeeper of the Slender Keju team to the right, but the ball went to the left.
1-0, the Imperial Royal Keju team scored first.
The team's first scorer is a slightly older player on their team. He came to the door, wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, swallowed the nervous saliva in his mouth, swept his gaze to the goalkeeper of the Imperial Royal Keju team, and then took a few steps back, and shot the ball out with two steps with his right foot.
However, perhaps because he wanted to score too much, or perhaps because he was too strong, the rattan ball deformed and changed direction, and his goal eventually deflected off the goal and flew into the crowd by grazing the frame.
The audience exclaimed with a dejected face, "Ahhh......hh
1-0, in the first round of penalty shootouts, the Imperial Royal Keju team led by one goal.
The second player to appear in the Imperial Royal Kemari team was their goalkeeper, and the penalty shoot-out faced the first goalkeeper duel.
Standing in front of the penalty spot, he stared at the opponent's goalkeeper's eyes, secretly guessing what he was thinking about if he was an opponent, and what kind of save the opponent would make after making his own moves.
He estimated a lot, and in the final moments near the end of the penalty period, he threw his right leg high behind him and kicked it out again.
I have to admit that as a goalkeeper, his footwork is good. The ball flew out at a pre-planned pace and course so fast that the opposing goalkeeper didn't have time to react.
However, the bad thing is that the other party reacts half a beat slowly. Originally, the goalkeeper of the Royal Keju team thought that the opponent would make a left and right save at the moment he saw the ball, but the opponent did not move, and the real shooting direction of the goalkeeper of the Imperial Keju team was exactly in the center of the dragon gate, and the rattan ball hit the opponent's head like a meteor, and the opponent easily blocked his ball without doing anything.
"Oops!" The goalkeeper of the Imperial Royal Keju Team shouted in grief and fell to his knees. Behind him, the robes of the Imperial Royal Juju team shouted regret, scratching their ears and cheeks.
The second player to appear was their tall defender. In this round, the goalkeeper of the Imperial Royal Keju team had just missed a penalty kick and was extremely disappointed, so he made a mistake in the prediction, and when he saw the opponent raise his foot and his head was hot, he immediately chose to save but was deceived by the opponent and shot an empty goal.
One to one, the two sides are back on the same starting line.
In the next third round of penalty shootouts, the goalkeeper of the Imperial Royal Keju team played well and blocked the opponent's goalkeeper's shot, which was a shame. However, in the fourth round, their defenders played erratically and kicked the rattan ball into the audience.
After four rounds, 2-2 is still a draw. The tournament goes to match point, and who wins the championship will depend on this crucial fifth round.
In this round, Dianman appeared as the finale of the team. He shook his legs, weakened by exhaustion, walked to the penalty spot, swept his gaze to the opposing goalkeeper, and after making a choice of the angle of his shot, he ran a few steps and shot hard.
The rattan ball swept across the ground like a streamer, and the speed was so fast that it stirred up all the floating soil on the ground, and the goalkeeper of the slender man team had no time to react when he saw the rattan ball about to step over the goalkeeper.
However, at this time, a magical scene happened. The ball gliding on the ground was less than two steps from the goal, except for a raised extension on the ground.
The fast-flying rattan ball changed its angle after the collision and hit the goal headlong and popped out of bounds.
"Didn't enter!" The audience, who hid their faces with their hands and couldn't bear to look directly, saw this scene through the gaps in their fingers and exclaimed in unison.
The pawn in the field fell to his knees and covered his face and wept. He secretly scolded himself for only pursuing strength and angle, and ignored the terrain factor. If it weren't for the angle, a casual kick might have scored. If there is no bulge on the ground, this one is in. If......
At this moment, he thought of a lot of possibilities, "I blamed myself for wanting to score too much." ”
Dian Man knelt on the court for a long time in despair before the referee forcibly ordered him to return to the team and give up the penalty spot to the opponent.
The last free thrower on the team was their young forward. Don't look at this person's age, but he is full of courage. On the final shot that decided the title of the tournament, he didn't shy away. He placed the ball at the free throw line, glanced at the ground in front of the goal, and raised his foot to shoot.
Seeing that the incoming ball shot was neither tricky nor fast, the goalkeeper of the Imperial Keju team instantly became excited. After making a prediction, quickly pounce.
However, the inevitable goal changed at this time. The rattan ball gliding on the ground suddenly stumbled on a bulge on the ground two steps from the gantry - it was still the same bulge, but the effect was completely different. After the collision, the rattan ball bounced and flew into the upper right corner of the goal.
As a result, the goalkeeper of the Imperial Royal Keju team made a huge error in his prediction, and the ball grazed his fingertips and flew into the net.
"Good ......" The cheers in the stands resounded in the sky, and even Luan Yi couldn't help but applaud this wonderful racket.
Three to two, the slender man Keju team defeated the powerful Imperial Royal Keju team in one fell swoop with its steady defense and stable performance in the penalty shootout, and won the championship of the first Imperial Cup Keju Competition.
The ending was decided, and the five main players and two substitutes of the team shouted excitedly, going around the field to cheer and greet the fans who supported them. The members of the Imperial Royal Keju Team looked depressed, kneeling on the ground like dead mothers for a long time, unable to hold back the sadness in their hearts.
The spectators in the stands, there are exciteds - they are supporters of the slender man Keju team; There are the Lost - they are fans of the Imperial Royal Keju Team; There are those who are excited – they are so happy to see the championship in person; There are also those who are lost - because the announcement of the championship means that the Kemari Tournament is over, at least for a short time.
Kemari has become a part of their lives, and what should they do for countless Sundays without it!
Just when people were thinking about their own things, Luan Yi stepped down from the passionate stands and walked along the passage into the arena. Next, he will personally present trophies and medals to the champions and runners-up of this competition.
Under the leadership of the household officials, all the members of the Slender Husband Keju Team and the Imperial Imperial Keju Team lined up in a row.
Luan Yi was the first to come to the royal juju team on the left.
Seeing Luan Yi's figure, the seven members of the Royal Keju team couldn't help but cry again. "Your Majesty, we have disgraced you."
Luan Yi didn't reprimand them, but comforted them gently: "You have done your best today, you have performed very well, and you have not embarrassed me." However, I hope that you will learn the lessons of this Kemari defeat so that you will not make the same mistakes on the battlefield in the future. Juju is a game that allows you to make mistakes, but when you get to the battlefield, you are surrounded by hundreds of robes and thousands of people in the empire, and the price of making mistakes is not as simple as losing a game. I hope you guys are doing it for themselves. ”
"The end will be taught."
Luan Yi immediately walked in front of Dian Man and hung the medal brought by the ceremonial staff on Dian Man's neck, "Tell me, why did you lose today?" ”
Dian Man choked up and said: "I didn't play well, not only did I fail to score, but I also kicked the penalty kick away in the end." ”
