Chapter 338: The Boy Chasing the Wind
“stone,”
“stone,”
“stone,”
Wu Sanshi once again enjoyed the cheers of the fans. The ball was played so cleverly that everyone thought he would shoot in front of goal, but who knew that he would catch the opponent off guard.
The fans were excited again, and they were talking.
"If you continue to play like this, Stone will be the top scorer in the League Cup this season. However, Milan veteran Inzaghi is also very perverted, and his goal tally has been consistent. ”
"The top scorer is not as important as the League Cup, so first of all, we have to make sure we win the League Cup."
"Isn't this nonsense? Wouldn't the more goals Stone scores, the more likely it is to win the UEFA Cup? ”
Wu Sanshi rushed to the fan stand and jumped on the billboard to interact with the fans. This once again caused the fans to go crazy.
Some young female fans were eager to reach over and pinch his face, and he blamed the fans for liking......
As soon as this goal was scored, it immediately relieved the pressure on the Spaniards' defense, who had been pressed by Aston Villa before, and now they can finally breathe a sigh of relief, at least the Spaniards now have room to maneuver, even if they are worried about conceding the goal, they will not be so nervous. The two wings, in particular, were almost blown up by James Milner and Ashley Young. Sanchez and Chika were about to cry, and Wu Sanshi's goal really relieved them.
Of course, this also provoked the counterattack of the Aston Villa players, they obviously had the advantage, but they were scored first, and no one could accept the score, especially Milner, Milner's return pass created an indirect free kick, which led to the conceded goal, and he is now more uncomfortable than anyone else's heart, nest fire! He was played by Wu Sanshi in the first round, and he made a mistake in the second round, and he really wanted to hit the wall headlong.
But now is not the time to hit the wall, unless Aston Villa are actually eliminated.
Soon after the resumption of the game, he received a through ball from Petrov and fired a shot from the right side of the penalty area, which headed straight for the bottom right corner of the goal, but Casilla kept the ball out of the line.
Milner, who was eager to make amends, began to burst into a furious fight, and after the corner, it was he who still grabbed the header, but the ball was deflected.
'Ashley Young and Milner were fierce today.
'The Spaniard's two wings are not out of danger and they still have to focus on the game. O'Neill's tactics today were actually quite successful, only to lose to his goalkeeper. ”
Three minutes later, Milner was again running down the right and Riera was easily cleared off by him, but Milner didn't expect Wu Sanshi to rush back after him, and finally tripped Milner with a clever right foot on the right edge of the penalty area.
Hierro didn't see how Wu Sanshi did it, and he even exclaimed the referee's decision, "Did Stone foul?" I don't think he's moving, huh? ”
However, after the slow-motion replay, Hierro exclaimed: "Oh, this action is too hidden, Stone first pushed with his right hand when he made contact with Milner, and his right foot was quietly extended, he looks like an old scavenger, not a striker......"
'He's been very good defensively as well, a striker has just chased back into the box from the front and we can't ask for too much.
It's just that Wu Sanshi hasn't got a yellow card yet, but Milner who fell on the turf knows best, Wu Sanshi's hand is not simple, like a veteran!
Ashley Young took the set-piece from the right side of the penalty area, just right for his left foot.
A powerful curling ball hung in the upper right corner of the goal, and Casilla, who was quite focused, still saved the ball with one hand.
Aston Villa were awarded another corner. Young shook his head as he ran to take a corner. As soon as he put the ball away, he immediately kicked it to Milner.
A tactical corner.
Milner didn't wait for the Espanyol players to come up, and immediately passed the ball into the Espanyol penalty area, when the players on both sides of the penalty area were still grabbing positions, who knew that the ball flew over!
Halke didn't limit Karui this time around, and the Norwegian flicked his header home from 10 yards.
“goooooooooooooooooooooooooal!”
'The effort of the Englishmen still created goals.'
In the 30th minute, Aston Villa still equalized!
Milner, who assisted, was even happier than Kalou, who scored the goal, and actually took off his shirt directly, revealing his strong muscles in celebration.
Hierro couldn't understand, "Did Milner score or did Karui score?" ”
"This picture is really incomprehensible."
'Milner has a card, is his goal to get a yellow card?'
O'Neill really wants to scold a stupid X off the field, what happened to Milner today? First passed the ball back to the goalkeeper, and now you are stripping to celebrate, you can vent your emotions, but don't take the initiative to sign, not to mention that it is not you who score!
Oh God, save this child! O'Neill doesn't know if he was right or wrong to start Milner, so if it's another yellow card? He couldn't even imagine it.
"This guy,"
"Thought the game was over?"
"Or do you think they've won? This is a draw. Callejon looked at the galloping Milner with disdain, and said as he stood beside Wu Sanshi.
"No way, they haven't seen the world, after all, they live on the island......" Wu Sanshi didn't understand either.
"Sooner or later, he's going to kill himself." Thinking of Milner's return pass, Wu Sanshi smiled.
In such a big war atmosphere, Wu Sanshi could still laugh.
Aston Villa's goal quickly boosted the morale of the team and they once again saw hope of progression, a 1-1 draw certainly won't be satisfying, with a win over Espanyol being their ultimate goal.
So despite the equaliser, they went on a frenzied attack.
With almost fifteen minutes left in the first half, Aston Villa looked to be attacking to the end, perhaps learning from the draw at La Liga side Villarreal, with O'Neill standing on the sidelines and constantly chasing his disciples to press.
In the 37th minute, it was another wonderful performance of Ashley Young and Milner, Ashley Young flew out of the left side and ran with the ball, Sanchez, who already had a yellow card, did not dare to break the ball, but was passed to the back post of the Spaniards by the former, Milner threw off Chika on the right side and rushed to the line of the small penalty area.
It's a pity that his header skills are really not very good, and he directly pushed the ball into Casilla's arms.
Casilla didn't lie on the turf for long like the other goalkeepers, but immediately launched a fast attack!
The ball was given to Shunsuke Nakamura's feet, and Shunsuke Nakamura immediately sent a long diagonal pass! Looking for Wu Sanshi, although there were two players on both sides to wrap him up, Wu Sanshi still used his speed to get rid of them.
He managed to get the ball, but Aston Villa central defender Davies also made up for it in time and shoveled directly at Wu Sanshi's feet!
Hmmm-
The lightning-fast tackle slid quickly, but Wu Sanshi calmly forced two steps to the left front, dodged Davis's sliding tackle, and rushed to the outside of the small penalty area on the left side with the ball, facing the Aston Villa goalkeeper, Wu Sanshi shot directly into the far corner!
Smack-
The Aston Villa goalkeeper was still slow and the ball went straight to the back post.
swish
Another sliding tackle, another centre-back Cuellar shoveled the ball off the line!
Wu Sanshi missed the second goal of the game, and Cuellar's long legs just worked......
Nakamura finally had a tacit cooperation with Wu Sanshi. In any case, Nakamura never knew Wu Sanshi better than de la Pena.
"Shit luck,"
"This ball can be blocked."
"Corner."
The clock came to the last minutes of the first half.
Shunsuke Nakamura took a corner and he played the ball down the middle, where Tamudo and Halke battled for the top at the same time, but the dense middle didn't give them the slightest chance, the ball was pushed out and Riera fired wide from outside the box.
The physical fitness of both sides also came to the end of the first half, and the rhythm finally slowed down, and the final score was still 1:1, and in the total ratio, it was also a 3:3 draw.
The managers of both sides walked into the tunnel with their brows locked, and such a score is certainly not satisfied, and danger is everywhere.
So the goals of the two managers in the dressing room were surprisingly aligned.
'We need at least one more goal.'
"Don't expect a draw to advance, that's a lie!"
Ruby is shattering everyone's illusions.
"Only scoring goals can hit the opponent and make the opponent lose confidence. We need to take the initiative back. ”
O'Neill is the same: "If we can't find a way to score, Villarreal will be our end, it's useless to be timid, we need to attack stronger, just more goals!" ”
"I'm going to see a perfect second half! Otherwise, we'll have to go back to Birmingham and see them advance! Of course, there are also sad fans out there who will be like us! ”
……
Ruby replaced Sanchez with La Cruz at the start of the second half, after all, Sanchez already had a yellow card on him, and he didn't want to be blown up by Ashley Young on the right side. At the same time, he also warmed up the Delappe.
There was no movement on Aston Villa's side, that is, the original team played.
"The decisive moment is coming, it could be a crazy second half, whoever scores first will have the initiative to advance."
The second-half deadlock continued, with only Ashley Young shooting wide from inside the box in the first 10 minutes. Although the opponent wants to score, it is difficult to break through the opponent's defense.
But the Spaniard's problem lies with La Cruz, who has just come on the pitch.
In the 58th minute, Villa took the lead, Petrov stole the ball at the feet of Lacruz at the back and passed the ball to Ashley Young, who crossed from the left side of the penalty area, and the unguarded Agbonlaho headed home from five yards before Casilla attacked!
The counterattack was so sudden that Casilla was not prepared and everyone was caught off guard.
“goooooooooal!”
“goooooooooal!”
"It's terrible, Abang Laho refuses to be unmarked!"
"It's good that Ruby didn't bring on La Cruz, it's a failure. Gave Aston Villa a goal for nothing. ”
'1:2, 3-4 on aggregate, Aston Villa have the initiative to advance, this is a result that could not have been worse.'
'Lacruz wasn't ready, he shouldn't have stuck the ball at the back, he should have played more concisely and he should have given the ball to his team-mates in midfield immediately.
"He must have realized what he had done wrong by now, but it was too late."
Undoubtedly, such a mistake was devastating, and every Spaniard player looked frustrated, and they really couldn't understand why Lacruz would make such a lowly mistake.
This time, the Aston Villa fans were in a binge at the El Plata Stadium, having given away a goal to the Spaniards in the first half, and now they have finally found their balance and the goal is even more significant.
O'Neill didn't expect the plot to develop like this, and the goddess of fate actually favored Aston Villa!
And at this time it is useless to blame La Cruz, although the Spaniards in the stands and the fans are very dissatisfied, the Spanish players on the field will continue to fight side by side.
They had to equalise in the limited time they had left, and if they couldn't get a draw back, they would have been eliminated.
To make matters worse, Lacruz then made a nasty assault on Ashley Young and was also shown a yellow card.
"Ruby's substitution is a complete failure!"
"It's better not to change! Didn't La Cruz get a yellow card yet? Oh, my God! ”
But Ruby didn't have time to regret it, replacing Riera with De La Pena, who had just returned from injury.
The formation was adjusted to 433 again.
No way, it's going to be risky again.
And O'Neill still hasn't changed.
De la Pena was excited as soon as he came on the pitch and Shunsuke Nakamura pulled up to the left and handed back command of the midfield, who immediately delivered a good shot.
Callejon received his diagonal cross at high speed down the right and immediately burst into the penalty area, and then in a hand-to-hand battle with the opposition centre-back, Callejon fell.
The fans immediately set off a huge cheer!
No matter how you look at Callejon, it seems that they have been violated, and the Spaniard should get a penalty opportunity.
But referee Riley refused to give a penalty and the game continued.
And the cheers immediately turned into huge boos.
In the midst of this boo, Aston Villa once again played a quick counter-attack.
Milner pushed forward at high speed down the right and De la Pena had no other way to do it, and to be on the safe side, he brought down Milner straight at the back and received a yellow card.
Like La Cruz before him, he received a yellow card shortly after he arrived. But he took the yellow card very calmly, and it was not because of his recklessness.
Ashley Young came in again to take the free-kick, but his footwork was really not good......
The Spaniards, who were behind, continued to press on the attack, and in order to avoid elimination, they had to fight with their backs.
"O'Neill is still the same, there are no substitutions."
In the 70th minute, Shunsuke Nakamura won a corner kick on the left flank, and he took the corner himself, and Halke's header from 10 yards went just wide!
The Spaniards began to dominate, and three minutes later, Takesanshi played a beautiful match with Nakamura on the left and sent the ball into the Aston Villa penalty area, where Tamudo's tackle in the middle was unsuccessful!
It didn't take long for Drapena to force his feet in the middle, and the ball hit Petrov's body and popped off the bottom line!
"God, isn't O'Neill going to change people yet? The defense was beaten into a sieve! ”
"Will one or two defenders die?"
The stubborn O'Neill was questioned by Aston Villa fans, who couldn't understand why O'Neill didn't make a substitution and didn't change the defenders to withstand the Spaniards' attack.
In the eyes of the fans, it was all wrong.
However, O'Neill still didn't make any moves, Shunsuke Nakamura took another corner, and Haque flicked his head in the middle of Aston Villa's penalty area, but the ball was confiscated by Friedel.
No score!
Aston Villa finally switched from defending to attacking.
The ball flew quickly past midfield and into front of Milner.
Milner single-handedly dribbled forward, not passing the ball to his team-mates in the middle or to Ashley Young, who was already fast-paced.
A beautiful straight assault straight into the heart of the Spaniards!
(Initial launch, domain name (remember _ three.)
De la Pena made another tackle on Milner, but he was still slightly slower by half a beat, and although Torrejo made up for it, his speed was too slow, and in the end he was actually smashed by Milner and faced Casilla single-handedly!
Bang –
Milner opted for a violent volley!
What a sign of lack of self-confidence......
Casilla makes a brave save! The ball didn't go in!
Instead, the ball bounced in front of De La Pena, who turned the ball around and immediately kicked it out.
This is a very purposeful pass, and the target directly found Wu Sanshi!
Wu Sanshi takes the ball and faces Luke Shaw.
It was a good counter-attack, but there weren't many teammates who could keep up, only Callejon on the right.
He quickly approached Luke Shaw with the ball. There is no other way, when no teammates come up to meet him at the first time, he can only choose to break through.
In a high-speed dribble, he made a pendulum-like movement, bobbing to the left and then immediately smashing the ball to the right.
It was quite simple and practical, and immediately after that, he dribbled the ball to the middle.
In the face of the defense of Aston Villa central defender Davies, he took another step to the right!
The void was flashed out like this!
And behind him, Cork didn't pull him when he wanted to!
Wu Sanshi has also taken a shot from his feet.
Bang –
He played a reverse corner, in the top left corner of the goal.
Aston Villa's goalkeeper can't do anything!
“goooooal!”
“goooooooooal!”
“goooooooooooooal!”
"God, he reminds me of Owen, the boy who chases the wind!"
"It's definitely an Owen-esque goal, it's so beautiful, it's perfect!"
"That's a boy chasing the wind!"
"He is a tribute to Owen for this goal."
"It's as if we've seen the same Owen on the green field again......"
Hierro kept chanting.
Such a brilliant and gorgeous goal, no amount of words can describe his mood at this time.
Of course, the Espanyol fans and Aston Villa fans in the stands are also crazy, what a shocking scene!
Especially the Aston Villa fans, as Hierro just said, they really seem to see Owen back then......
