Chapter 38: Two Volleys
Much later, the retired Vuray wrote in his autobiography: "The last thirty minutes of the seventh game after I arrived in Granada were thirty minutes of great significance for me, and I am grateful to the manager at the time, Martinez, for believing in me, which changed my playing career!" ”
In the 84th minute of the second half, Sporting Gijón, who were eager to take points from Granada, played a beautiful combination.
Morilla played a brilliant cross from Robin, who came off the bench on the left, on the touchline, and went through to a one-two. Robin, the left winger, carries the ball with a soccer ball and dribbles quickly down the touchline.
With five or six meters left on the baseline, Robin didn't look up and passed the ball directly to the middle. It was a high ball, but the quality of the pass was not very satisfying. According to Robin's idea, the ball should be passed directly into the penalty area, allowing his teammates to scramble in the box to find opportunities to score.
It's a pity that the ball landed in the arc of the penalty area, and Granada had more defenders in that position.
Blackman looked up at the running of the soccer ball in the air, and everyone was judging where the ball would land, and Granada's veteran substitute Herrmann was the closest, running close to the landing point with three steps and two steps.
The midfielder had to watch the football while keeping his attention on the imminent Morilla, after all, the young youngster's talent should not be underestimated. In the afterglow of Fed, Morilla suddenly activated!
In an instant, Morilla turned into a bolt of lightning and rushed towards the football, and Fei felt a gust of wind blowing in his left ear, and he was overtaken by Morilla.
"Oops!!" Fei De reacted and turned to chase, but Morilla's speed was too fast, and the muscles in his calves released a lot of energy, ensuring his wind-like speed, and after a few steps, he stood on the arc of the penalty area.
When Morilla was just in place, Blackman grabbed the point against Herman, and the header passed the football to Morilla, Morilla looked at the football that was getting closer and closer, the center of gravity of his body fell to the left, his left foot was nailed to the turf like a nail, and his right foot shot directly!
Volley!!
Fei Fei, who was still accelerating behind him to catch up, had to brake in time, because at this time he couldn't stop Morilla's shot, so don't crash into each other because of inertia at that time, causing unnecessary disputes and injuries.
The football whizzed like a cannonball, and with a powerful momentum it passed through defender Soma and headed straight for the goal, as if to destroy all the obstacles that stood in his way!
Football is like a cold arrow on the ancient battlefield, shooting towards the goal, Silva made the right judgment in the right direction, but he didn't expect the football to hit the inside of the goal frame and bounce into the goal!
“Goooooaaallllll!!!!”
"The ball is in!! It was Morilla who scored the goal!! ”
"Granada is not willing to be held to a draw at home, but equally, Sporting Gijón does not want to go home empty-handed!!"
"Morilla is like a ruthless shooter, stabbing the dagger in his hand into the heart of Granada!!"
'He helped the team equalise!! The score is now 2:2, draw!! ”
The emotions of the Sporting Gijón players were ignited instantly, such a beautiful goal and a wonderful game process were enough to make every player feel excited!!
They ran to Moriglia and hugged each other in celebration, while the Granada members with their hands on their hips behind them became the backdrop.
"Now the pressure is on Granada's side, or rather, on Wu Lei, who has just taken up the captaincy of the field!" The domestic commentator looked at Wu Lei in the director and said.
"It's the final stretch of the La Liga title race and Granada have played well this season, so they can't afford to let the title go by, which is why they fought Osasuna in their last game!"
"Now after the two captains are gone, the three points in hand become one point or even zero points, which is absolutely unacceptable! Now the role that Captain Wu Lei can play is very important, he needs to step up and lead his teammates to win back!! ”
Wu Lei looked at the celebrating Sporting Gijón players, turned around and patted Pozzo and Vico on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, go back and wait for kickoff!" ”
......
The game resumes with Granada kick-off in the centre circle.
After a couple of passes at the back, the ball was at the feet of Vico on the left, who received the ball on the left touchline and pushed forward quickly, with Vuray in the middle and Pozzo on the right also speeding up at the same time.
Wu Lei, who played the whole game as a starter in a row, was close to overdraft at this time, if it weren't for Ji Qin's blessing to double his training results, he might have run out of strength by now.
When Vico was 30 meters from the baseline, he did not choose to continue with the ball, but suddenly passed the ball to the penalty area with a 45-degree diagonal pass, and the football quickly came to the penalty area of Granada with a spin.
The landing point is near the penalty spot. Experienced defender Baban anticipated the landing point and started to run.
Speaking of Baban, in fact, Baban was a former Granada player, he came through the Chateauroux academy, joined Granada from Alcocón in the summer of 2014, and later moved to Sporting Gijón. However, both teams were La Liga teams at the time, and now they are both fighting in La Liga.
Just as Baban arrived near the penalty spot, a figure suddenly took a step into the air ahead of him, touched the ball in the air like a relay in the air, and passed the ball outside the penalty area.
No headers?
In Baban's confused thoughts, a black-haired figure appeared in front of him.
"Wu Lei!!"
I saw that Wu Lei, who was running without the ball, was ferried by Pozo's header, but the football landed behind him, Wu Lei turned around and took off directly, his whole body seemed to be out of gravity, and his right foot was raised high and kicked on the football!!
When Granada launched the attack, Sporting Gijón's goalkeeper Marino was already in full swing, with his hands slightly open and his body slightly squatting, ready to fly and jump at any time! When Wu Lei shoots, Marino kicks his right foot and flies up like a tiger!
Throughout the game, everyone except Vuray and Marino stopped and held their breath, and Pozzo fell to the ground after completing the header ferry, but instead of rushing to his feet, he turned his head to look at the ball.
The ball flew to the top left corner of the goal, and Marino couldn't reach the whip without touching the football!!
"Beep beep !!" The referee reacted instantly and pointed to the center circle to indicate that the goal was valid!!
“Goooooooaaaaaallllll!!!!!”
"The ball is in!! Volley barb!!! ”
The entire Carmenez Stadium suddenly boiled, all the fans jumped up and cheered and screamed, Wu Lei was crushed to the ground by excited teammates one after another before he got up after scoring the goal, and everyone hugged and celebrated in the Granada coach's box and the bench!!
Martinez was nervous until the ball hit the back of the net, and Martinez jumped to his feet with a powerful wave of his hand.
"Good Ball !!"
