Chapter 247: Strange Goal
Atletico's free-kick didn't go straight into the box, it was 40 metres from goal, a long flight distance that was enough for the defenders to make timely judgments.
So Capdevilla just passed the ball to Baraja, who then distributed the ball to Héctor who cut in on the right, and Héctor just got the ball before being tackled to the ground by Ze Roberto, who had returned to the defense.
Collina came up to warn Ze Roberto twice, and Héctor was not affected much, after all, Ze Roberto did not deliberately hurt people, Leverkusen came up and fouled twice in a row, nothing more than to prove their fighting spirit in this game, and at the same time to test Corina's bottom line, Collina is also very clear about this, so when he warned Ze Roberto, his tone was very harsh, telling Ze Roberto that he did not show a yellow card this time because the game had just started, and he would not let it go next time if there was such a move.
Dick held his chin and looked at the situation on the field expressionlessly, Corina's penalty just now made him breathe a sigh of relief, Atletico Madrid's control style of play, the most afraid is to lose the ball in the midfield, so it is easy to be attacked by the opponent with a quick counterattack, he has absolute confidence in the control ability of Atletico Madrid players, but if the penalty scale is too loose, and the ball is broken close to a foul, then it will suffer a big loss, it is obvious that Collina's scale is not loose, which is a good thing for Atletico Madrid.
A stern warning in advance, so that a certain party's action is more restrained, but also a way for the referee to control the game to be carried out smoothly, many referees just don't know the truth of the beginning to stand up, resulting in the game can not be cleaned up, and then it is too late to play the cards, the player's anger will come up after the red card and yellow card, most of the red and yellow cards flying all over the game are caused by this.
Three minutes later, Lucio brought down the breakthrough Camoranesi, Atletico Madrid won a free kick close to the goal, Belleron passed the ball into the box, but Novotny shook his head first and pushed the ball out - the air defense of the Bundesliga team is quite good, Dick stood up and made a downward gesture on the field, Belleron saw his action, and then nodded, Dick's intention was obvious, not to play too many high-altitude balls, to play the ground ball, play to our advantage.
Jardel's basic skills at his feet are actually not bad, so he can also adapt to playing ground balls, at least on the ground, he has no problem making a few balls, and his ability to shoot at his feet is not bad at all.
Novotny's clearance was again picked up by Atletico and they began to kick back and forth in midfield, while Bayer Leverkusen pressed high and after a scramble, Capdevilla's pass hit Schneider's leg and went out of bounds.
Capdevilla took the throw-in, and at this time he saw that Vicente had swam behind the Leverkusen defense - Leverkusen's defense was still relatively high, and at this time Capdevilla had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and immediately threw the ball vigorously into the Leverkusen penalty area!
Throwing a throw-in is not restricted by the offside rule, that is to say, even if you don't have an opposing player in front of you, your teammate's throw-in throws over, you receive the ball, and you will not be punished offside, this is a rule that most old fans know, but in the game, it is easy to ignore!
The Leverkusen players ignored this at this time!
When Capdevilla threw the ball into the Bayer Leverkusen penalty area, all the Bayer Leverkusen defenders were stunned, because they were sure that Vicente was in an offside position, and Placente at the far end even raised his hand to signal that Vicente was offside, but they quickly reacted - the throw-in was not offside!
But by this time it was too late!
Vicente received a throw-in from Capdevilla in the box, then faced the attacking goalkeeper Bout, and then turned sideways to shoot the ball easily diagonally, the ball flew in front of Bute, and then flew directly into the front of goal!
The ball went in?
The ball is in!
Before everyone could react, Corina's whistle was already blowing, and the goal was valid!
It wasn't until the whistle blew and Corina's hand pointed to the kick-off point in the centre circle that the stands erupted in a landslide and tsunami-like cheers from Atletico Madrid fans!
Happiness comes too quickly and too suddenly! This made Atletico fans not expect such a goal! This made them stunned for a moment, and then let out their cheers with all their might!
"Ball...... The ball is in! No one could have imagined that such a goal would be completed in this way! Capdevilla threw a throw-in, then Vicente in the box received the ball and easily beat Bout's finger pass! Bayer Leverkusen's defenders were careless! How could they forget that throw-ins are not subject to offside rules! That's really ...... Maybe their attention is all on the pressing up front, but they ignore that! Anyway, Atletico took the lead, and I don't know if Dick was premeditated or lucky, but Atletico took the lead in the Champions Cup final! Beautiful goal! In the opening nine minutes, Atletico opened the door to victory! Can they become the third Spanish team to win the Champions League? Let's wait and see! ”
Dick jumped up from the coach's bench with his hands raised, and at this time Capdevilla rushed over like a madman, shouting at Dick: "Chief, it really worked!" How did you know they would make such a mistake? It's incredible! ”
Dick laughed, of course he would not say that he would arrange this tactic because he knew that Real Madrid scored such a goal in the final, it seems that in this final in history, the goal that Bayer Leverkusen conceded was really not accidental...... However, Bayer Leverkusen is also a little unlucky, it was unlucky enough to lose the league title before, and they made such an amateurish mistake in the final, did they really not have the life of the champion?
But just as it is advantageous to find a bad luck guy to suppress his chips in the opposite place if you want to win money in the casino, it is also very lucky to be able to meet a team that does not have a championship life in the final!
He hugged Capdevilla and slapped him on the court, and Dick slapped his face and shouted, "Okay, let's continue to attack like before!" Make the most of us! Deal with them! ”
After shouting these words, Dick returned to his position and began to ponder - it seems that in the final in history, after conceding a goal, Bayer Leverkusen quickly equalized through a free kick by Lucio, and this will not be the case, right?
Before the game, Dick practiced a lot of set-piece defensive tactics, especially when the opponent was an imaginary enemy, Lucio, Ballack and Novotni, the three players with excellent headers, would be closely marked, Stam against Lucio, Thuram against Baraha, and as for Novotny, it was dealt with by Jadel, who returned to the defense, so there should be no problem with such a tight defense.
After the restart, Leverkusen immediately launched a crazy counterattack, they are now unlucky to the bottom, so they have also abandoned all other ideas, but continue to attack to get opportunities, anyway, now they are behind, anyway, they have lost two championships before, and then they are unlucky is nothing more than to get a Sanya king, where else can they be unlucky? But in a competition like the Champions Cup final, we must not just end it casually, we have to perform well, because maybe next time there will be no chance to enter the Champions Cup final again!
Bayer Leverkusen's attack is quite ferocious, under the leadership of Ballack, although their attack is not very gorgeous, but concise and effective, constantly through the back and forth of the rapid attack, breaking through the wings, shooting from the middle, hitting the penalty area to look for opportunities, after the two wings break through the cross to create opportunities for Ballack and others in the back row...... Such a simple offense has become their own system, and they will naturally have an incomparably good performance!
Ballack is still very impressive in the game, the current number one star of the German national team has been performing better and better in the past two years, although there have been failures at Bayer Leverkusen - he lost the league title two years ago, and in the final round he first set himself up to cause Bayer Leverkusen to fall behind and finally lose, but after Emerson left, he quickly developed into a well-deserved midfield core and offensive and defensive hub for Leverkusen, even in the German national team, he is capable of achieving such a position!
He is a fairly well-rounded player, covering areas from his own penalty area to the opponent's penalty area, a characteristic that he learned from Emerson, and his physical fitness is better than Emerson's, making his role on the field even more obvious!
In the fifteenth minute, Ballack, who had switched to the wing, forced a breakthrough, Capdevilla was forced to bring him down with Baraja, who had come from the sideline, and Bayer Leverkusen won a free kick on the left side of the box near the touchline, and Schneider stood in front of the ball.
Leverkusen's tall men have rushed into the penalty area, Atletico Madrid's Jadel and Baraja have also defended, Leverkusen has a lot of tall players, two central defenders, midfielders Ramirao and Ballack, are both players with excellent header bounce ability, the two sides are constantly vying for position in the penalty area, although Collina whistled to warn some of them, but when Collina walked away, the hands of both sides will be entangled again.
With Collina's whistle, Schneider picked up his right foot and sent a beautiful curling ball into the box!
Thuram and Ballack jumped up at the same time, but neither of them touched the ball, and Stam in the middle was about to jump to clear the siege, but Lucio jumped in front of him!
The two sides were evenly matched in the physical duel, but Lucio had the advantage in the speed of the jump, he was ahead of Stam and got stuck in front of him.
Under the interference of Stamm, Lucio still grabbed the first spot, and when it was difficult to hit the goal with a header, he shook his head to meet the ball quite awkwardly......
The ball jumped upwards, then jumped weirdly, drew an arc in the air, and hit the corner behind the goal!
Molina, who was standing in the middle of the pitch ready to make a save, did not expect this at all, and when he judged the arc of the ball's flight, he took two steps back in shock, and then stretched out his right hand with all his might, trying to cut the ball off in the middle of the game......
However, it was still a step too late, and the ball flew past his hand in a swirling way, and then fell diagonally into the corner of the goal......
"Fuck it, why is this ball so weird!" When the ball flew into the door of Atletico Madrid, Dick couldn't help but curse a swear word, the blocking of this ball on Atletico Madrid can be said to have reached the limit, but it was broken by such a curved ball......
