Chapter 469: A Game Between Goalkeepers

No matter who makes the free throws, no matter how they kick or what kind of ball they play, the first thing Cheney does as a goalkeeper is to line up the wall.

Tang Wu's free kick Cheney had long been heard, and the Brazilian goalkeeper took the lead in lining up a thick human wall with five strong players in front of Tang Wu.

Liverpool's free-kick was in a dangerous position this time around, with all Sao Paulo players involved in the defence. Although Liverpool was Tang Wu's penalty, Carragher was still standing near the center circle.

As a centre-back, he should be in his place, with or without a goalkeeper behind him.

"No, no!"

Cheney muttered, and continued to add manpower to the wall.

When the number of human walls reached seven, Cheney nodded in satisfaction.

"You can see that Cheney is worried about this ball."

"That's right, he lined up the human wall outside the column."

"It's the same as Tang Wu just now."

"That's right, the same as Tang Wu."

It was only under Zhan Jun and Huang Jianxiang's explanation that the viewers and fans sitting in front of the TV understood why.

Many free-kick takers will kick a wide arc to get the ball around the wall and the post and back again, and finally score.

The most famous was Robert Carlos' shocking left-footed long-range volley against France.

Carlos' left-footed outspin ball spun around the wall and the post and spun around the post and flew into Butters' goal.

Such a ball is a nightmare for a goalkeeper.

Because your brain has already figured out that the ball is out of the woodwork, you will barely make any save.

But just when you don't make a save for the "ball that flies out of the frame", the ball is already in the net.

In normal training, no matter how hard the goalkeeper is, he will not train himself in this area. "Suppressing instinct" has always been a regular training item for goalkeepers, but defending such free kicks is not within the scope of goalkeeper practice, who would deliberately practice to save the ball that has flown to the outside of the post?

Since the goalkeeper doesn't practice, he can only defend with a human wall.

Previously, Tang Wu lined up the wall twice in a row, and put Alonso outside the post, the purpose was to use him to defend Cheney's free kick around the wall.

After Cheney "endured" two goals in a row, the third goal was finally "fooled".

Alonso's position has been arranged by Tang Wu to the extreme of Cheney's arc, and it is precisely because of this that his head can hit the spinning ball.

Now that Cheney is defending Tang Wu in the same way, he doesn't believe that a Champions League winning team would let a goalkeeper who can only shoot in a straight line take a free-kick!

Tang Wu's precise bridge method has been imprinted in Cheney's mind throughout the game, how can someone who can pass such a precise backspin ball not kick a full moon scimitar?

After the wall of seven people was lined up, Cheney stood in the gap between the wall and the doorpost on the other side.

With such a narrow distance, Cheney was sure that as long as Tang Wu kicked into this space, he would be able to save the ball 100 percent.

This space is so small that the little Cheney can stretch out his arms and connect the left and right ends of this space.

At that moment, Cheney glanced at the clearing to his left and suddenly had a strange premonition.

"Oh no, fooled!"

The role of the human wall is limited, as a goalkeeper, the most believed must be yourself!

When Cheney was confident in this elaborate human wall, it was when he showed his flaws.

But the gap here is so big that even if Cheney stretches his body for the first time, he can't cross the goal.

Seeing this, Cheney hurriedly shouted: "Mineiro, come back, this way!" ”

Hearing his name being called, Mineiro hurriedly stepped back from the wall, leaving only a lone player on the outside of the São Paulo post.

Under Cheney's command, Mineiro quickly retreated to the goal line.

When a free-kick is taken, many teams will send another player on the goal line.

Although he interferes with the goalkeeper's saves and jumps without hitting the crossbar with his head, it works wonders for many free-kicks.

The football went around the human wall, bypassing the fingertips of the goalkeeper, but it couldn't hide from the outfielders who were standing there.

Cheney called Mineiro back to fill the gap in the goal.

And he didn't believe that Tang Wu would kick an extremely tricky free kick that went straight to the dead corner, of course, this "gamble" required a lot of courage.

Seeing Mineiro retreating, Tang Wu immediately stretched out his hand and shouted at Alonso.

"GOGOGO, HARVEY!"

Alonso, who had a keen sense of smell, immediately emerged from the crowd and ran to the back of the crowd.

If you press back and stand, I'll force you out!

Alonso was empty at the moment, but he was in a non-offside position, as he had Cheney and Mineiro in front of him.

If Tang Wu passed the ball to Alonso, who was empty next to him, the referee would not have awarded him a foul.

Seeing this, Mineiro ran forward without Cheney's instructions. Three or two steps later, he threw Alonso out in an offside position. At this time, Tang Wu passed the ball again, and it was properly offside.

Just when Mineiro was proud and happy about his wit, Tang Wu in front of the ball suddenly ran to the ball and quickly scooped the ball out with his right foot.

The six walls of Fame in São Paulo jumped up neatly, and their necks were all neatly swung to the side. But Tang Wu was aiming at the gap when Mineiro had just left, and here, there was a straight passage to the goal.

The distance of 22 meters is fleeting, Tang Wu's arc is not very big, but the ball speed is very fast. When the ball flew through the wall and into the gate of São Paulo, the shouts of the crowd reached their climax.

“OHMYGODIT'STOM!”

“GOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!”

“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!“

“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!!“

It's been a long time since the Yokohama World Cup Stadium has been so lively, and at this moment, the entire football stadium is filled with a burst of joyful shouts, echoing in the huge stadium.

Cheney was still standing in place, and Tang Wu only hesitated when he got up, but in the end he didn't take a single step.

I can't say that there is no reaction, but I really can't resist it.

“TOM,TOM,TOM,TOM!!!”

The KOPs were crazy and jumping like the Chinese New Year, holding Liverpool's scarves and Tang Wu's head, writhing around in the stands.

There are no words to describe the mood at the moment, the fans just need to roar and cry to vent their emotions.

It's one thing for fans to expect it, it's another thing for it to happen.

"This goal, for you!"

Tang Wu came to the main stand, which was mostly populated by local fans.

When he saw that they were all dressed in red, without exception, Tang Wu rushed to them without hesitation and gave the first Club World Cup goal to the Japanese fans holding up his posters.

"Tang Wusang~~~ Watasi, Watasi..."In the stands, a Japanese female fan with the Liverpool emblem on her cheeks was so excited that her face was flushed, her hands were placed on her lips to make a trumpet shape, and she shouted loudly to Tang Wu directly below the stands: "Red power, auntie washes the railway horses!" ”
