Chapter 261: Captain, I did my best

() "Penalty?"

"That's right, it's a penalty from Monaco!"

"Liverpool are in trouble!"

Needless to say, everyone can see that Monaco winning a penalty at home almost means winning the victory.

After setting up the ball, Saviola looked up and looked around at the stands.

He already knew the news of Larsson's injury, so he was sure that as long as he played well in this game, Barcelona had a good chance of sending someone to take him back early. As for whether there are six months left on the loan, that's not something he needs to think about at all.

Only goals, only goals can impress the Barcelona hierarchy, only goals can show my strength.

In his debut game in Ligue 1, Saviola scored a goal to get himself off to a perfect start in Ligue 1. Now, the little rabbit needs to score a goal in the Champions League to win back the "heart" of his old club.

The Argentine striker, who is regarded as Maradona's successor, pursed his lips and seemed to see himself "as the main striker, win Bai Fumei, and reach the peak of his career".

"Saviola..."

"Run..."

"Shoot..."

"Oh my God!!"

"Tang Wu!"

"It's the young general Tang Wu again!"

Huang Jianxiang and Zhan Jun excitedly stood up from behind the table.

At the same time, in addition to the on-site commentator from Liverpool, the commentators from various TV stations in other countries shouted "Yuya" in unison.

Calling a player's nickname is intimacy, and calling a player's real name is respect.

At this moment, the commentators of dozens of TV stations desperately rubbed their tongues, used the little Chinese knowledge they learned on TV, and tried their best to complete the two sounds of "Tang Wu".

A goalkeeper who can save a penalty in the Champions League does deserve the respect of others.

The moment Savio pulled his foot, Tang Wu had already pounced to the left.

The Argentine striker was extremely fast on the ball, and the Reds goalkeeper was not slow to fall to the ground.

On the premise of correct prediction, as the body moved, Tang Wu's dynamic vision also captured the trajectory of the ball.

With a strong stretch of his left hand, the touch of leather came from the tips of his two fingers.

In the next second, Tang Wu aimed at the ball that bounced back from the goalpost with his right hand, hugged it in his arms, and pressed it under him.

A series of actions were completed in an instant, and the Monaco players who rushed forward to shoot had just run a few steps before they stopped helplessly.

The other Red Army players continued to rush forward, prostrate beside Tang Wu one by one, kissing the back of Tang Wu's head.

For a goalkeeper, the moment you make a successful save is the moment when you score, isn't it?

“TOM,TOM,TOM!!!” All the away fans cheered.

They waved scarves with the word Liverpool printed on them, and they were so agitated that they couldn't stop at all.

At this moment, the Monaco players finally realized the resentment of Liverpool on that rainy day a year and a half ago.

When a penalty kick that is almost guaranteed is saved by the opposing goalkeeper, the difference in heart is huge. It's as if you've finished calling according to a small advertisement, but it's Sister Fleur who knocks on the door.

The P I made an appointment with me had to finish it with tears; If you miss a penalty, you have to bear the responsibility and pressure.

After seeing Tang Wu really pounce on the ball, Bei Bald clenched his fists with excitement and waved his hands.

After trotting back and forth on the sidelines, he shouted an order: "Steven, you go warm up, quick!" Go warm up! ”

Liverpool's players in the box huddled together and celebrated like a goal. The referee couldn't help it, Tang Wu and the ball were pressed under him, and before the Liverpool players on his body were gone, he did not get up from the ground holding the ball.

Half a minute later, Tang Wu threw the ball in the air and kicked it hard into the frontcourt.

When the ball left the Liverpool penalty area, there was also a subtle change in the mentality of the players on both sides.

In the 60th minute, Steven Gerrard replaced Biscayne at a time when Reds fans forgot about their captain and still chanted Tang Wu's name.

When the team is in a crisis of no striker, when the team is in a goal drought, when the team has drawn in such important games as the league and the Champions League, what fans see is the lack of the team's attack and the manager's mistakes.

But it wasn't until the moment Saviola stood in front of the penalty spot that fans finally realized that Liverpool still had someone quietly working for the team.

For Tang Wu, he is just an ordinary goalkeeper, a goalkeeper who can't bring victory to the team.

When a game ends in a draw, or even a 0-0 draw, people don't sing the praises of the goalkeeper. It seems that 0 opponents are a matter of course for a goalkeeper.

After a football match, goalkeepers are often the ones who are overlooked the most.

People like attackers, they like players who can score goals, because the highlight of the football field is mostly the second when the ball goes in.

An England rookie like Wayne Rooney can get a transfer fee of £2,600W, and these strikers are worth more than 10 million at every turn, which is a common occurrence in the transfer market.

But for a goalkeeper, more than 10 million is almost a luxury.

If it weren't for Tang Wu and Cech being angry, maybe the transfer fee of 500W would have made him excited.

It's a natural gap between the two positions, and it's not something that can be regained by working the pitch.

Even though Tang Wu has a huge Chinese market behind him, Liverpool is a team first, and then commercialization is discussed. In addition, Tang Wu's iconic hands have long been bought out by Chelsea, so the first choice of many well-known sponsors is also rookie frontcourt players such as Xiao Xiaoluo, Rooney, Reyes, Robben, and Fabregas.

So for Tang Wu, the most important thing is to endure loneliness.

When the team is prosperous, you must guard against arrogance and rashness, and do not let the team swallow the bitter fruit for your carelessness; When the team is at a low point, I have to persevere, stick to the team's last line of defense, and wait for the team's form to pick up.

To be honest, Tang Wu doesn't want to be Liverpool's hero in every game, which can only show that Liverpool is a team with a very poor defense.

But when he really needs to stand up himself, Tang Wu will not shy away from it, because this is his responsibility.

In Liverpool. Tang Wu put himself in a correct position. The team doesn't need a goalkeeper to step up and play a lot, it needs a goalkeeper who doesn't make low-level mistakes, and that's enough. These days, Tang Wu has played his role well.

But today, Liverpool's defence was once again unleashed in front of the beastly Monaco like a stripped virgin, and Tang Wu stepped up once again to save the team.

"Beep!"

With the referee's whistle, the game was over.

0-0, another game with no results.

After Gerrard came on, Liverpool's morale was boosted, and they played a couple of decent counter-attacks in a row. But Monaco are at home after all, and although they missed a penalty, they still have momentum.

Coupled with the fact that Gerrard's form has not fully recovered, the two sides can only shake hands in the end.

After the game, the fans still did not leave the stadium. They chanted "TOM" and "Gerald" because they saw hope.

Tang Wu kept Liverpool's hopes alive, and Gerrard brought hope to Liverpool's qualification.

The captain of the Red Army walked to the backfield and met Tang Wu, who was taking off his gloves.

The two men who were so lightweight to Liverpool looked at each other, and a smile appeared on the corner of their mouths.

"Captain, welcome back. Sorry, I really tried my best. Tang Wu shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile.

It was the first time the two had a chance to talk to each other since Gerrard came on the pitch.

"Don, I know." Gerard nodded, as for what Tang Wu said, Gerard knew very well.

Since the Double Red Club retired injured themselves, Liverpool have won few games but have never lost a game. Even if the team didn't score a goal without any attacking power, no team took three points from Liverpool.

This is Tang Wu's greatest contribution.

The captain of the Red Army stretched out his fist and collided with Tang Wu's right fist, and said in a deep voice: "The next game, leave it to me!" ”
