Simeone spread his arms on the sidelines and shouted loudly for the referee to protect the players.

However, his voice was drowned out by the boos of the fans in front of the stadium – the Chinese fans in front of the TV were unhappy with the referee, and the Astana fans were also unhappy with the referee.

They don't feel like they should be given a yellow card.

You must know that Anisi is the team's central defender, if there is a yellow card, then what will happen to the next game?

He will definitely be hampered by this yellow card, and maybe he will become a key breakthrough in Atletico Madrid's attack, and they will continue to attack Anisi, which will eventually lead to Anisi's collapse.

That yellow card could turn into a turning point in the game.

So in their opinion, this yellow card from Anisi is too harsh.

They even felt that the yellow card was because of Gao Zheng's exaggerated fall, so the referee made the card to Anisi.

So Gao Zheng, a shameless guy, actually faked a fall!

The Astana fans booed even louder.

In the boo, Gao Zheng was pulled up from the ground by his teammates, and he rubbed his calf, which was swept by Anisi.

It really hurts......

It's just a hard injury.

And he still hid, if he didn't hide and let Anisi's kick be real, he probably wouldn't be able to play this game, and I don't know if he can play the next game.

But he could somewhat understand why Anisi was so ruthless.

Not just Anisi, the other Astana players were clearly more aggressive after the start of the second half.

Because they were only one goal down, they had hopes of equalising and they would have been so scrappy.

As the saying goes, "the bell must be tied to the bell", since the root of the problem is that Atletico Madrid is only one goal ahead of Astana, wouldn't it be good to score one more goal and give Atletico Madrid a two-goal lead?

If they are desperate because they see hope, then they will not see hope.

"I'm fine." Gao Zheng smiled at his concerned teammates and relieved them.

Then he asked the referee for the football.

He was going to take the free-kick he created.

Why did he practice free-kicks in the first place?

Isn't it just to let every opponent know that fouling him is not good, it will only lead to conceding goals.

Now, whether it is Serie A, La Liga or Champions League opponents, it seems that they are gradually starting to realize this.

However, Astana, as a new team in the Champions League, is not very familiar with him. Otherwise, the number five wouldn't have asked him what he was laughing at during the game.

This is understandable.

But it doesn't matter, once born and twice cooked, anyone has a process from unfamiliar to familiar.

Gao Zheng set the football in place, and the tough artificial grass lifted the football up, so that the football was suspended on the turf, and he didn't even have to step on the soil at the penalty spot.

The human wall has been erected on the Astana side.

Thirty-five meters from the center of the goal, the position is on the left, the human wall is six people, blocking half the angle of the shot, the near corner of the goal is completely covered by the human wall, and the goalkeeper Eric stands in the middle of the goal - why not the middle forward? Because people always rush forward faster, standing in the back position, if Gao Zheng's ball goes around the human wall and goes straight to the front point, the goalkeeper will not rush forward too slowly.

But if he stands too far forward, although he can cover the near corner, if Gao Zheng kicks the football to the back corner, he will have to retreat and pounce on the ball, and then both the speed of movement and the strength of the jump will be insufficient.

Eric conceded four goals against Atletico Madrid in the previous round, but was outstanding at the rest of the game, making a number of good saves.

The same goes for this game.

At home, he seems to have taken his performances to the next level and played better.

After he arranged the human wall, he stood in the position he had chosen, leaned over slightly, and lowered his center of gravity.

He saw Gao Zheng and football in the cracks.

That's a good location.

He made all the preparations and waited for Gao Zheng to play.

※※※

Gao Zheng had already set up the football, and he was waiting for the opponent to set up the wall.

When the wall was set up, the referee stepped aside and blew the whistle.

Gao Zheng started to run, and then pumped his right foot towards the football.

Although it is a pump, the power is not great, just like the end of the whip hits a football.

The ball soared into the air, but instead of flying over the wall to the near corner, it went straight to the goalkeeper Eric's position!

Eric saw the football flying towards him through the cracks, and he was overjoyed - he didn't expect Gao Zheng's free kick to be so substandard, and now he didn't even have to move, as long as he opened his hand, he could take the incoming ball into his arms......

So he raised his hands, and turned their palms outward, palms slightly facing each other, forming a semicircle.

This is the standard gesture for the goalkeeper to receive the ball.

The ball flew over.

Eric suddenly noticed that the football in the air seemed to be ...... It didn't turn at all, and when it took off, it was facing itself, and it was still facing itself.

The only thing that reassures him is that the ball is indeed flying straight towards him and has not changed direction.

But just as the football was about to approach him, the football that had been stable suddenly fell diagonally!

Not very quickly, but suddenly, like if you want to reach out and catch a feather that is falling down, but when your hand comes to you, the feather is suddenly blown away by the wind that your hand has raised......

It was as if the ball had run out of his palm like a weightless feather!

His hand touched the ball again, but only rubbed it, and then the ball slipped from his hand and into the goal!

This is...... Deciduous balls!

When the ball flew into the goal, there was only one thought on Eric's mind.

Soccer balls can really flutter like fallen leaves and feathers at random intervals!

"Gao Zheng! Gao Zheng!!! Strike!!! He Ping was yelling on the TV.

In front of the TV, Xiao Yingying jumped up from the sofa, stepped on the floor with her bare feet, and also raised her arms and shouted: "Handsome——!! ”

Feng Shiyu was not as excited as her, but she also waved her fist hard.

Gao Zheng fulfilled his promise to her, and she finally waited for this goal!

At this moment, there are all kinds of cheers in front of the TV and on the Internet.

On TV, the same goes for Simeone and the Atletico Madrid players.

"The final free-kick! Pretty! A real 'Deciduous Ball'! Amazing! José Maria did not hesitate to give Gao Zheng's ball all kinds of compliments, and then he shouted: "Kazakhs, you don't know anything about the horrors of the 'Great Demon King'!" Don't foul on the high! This is the end! ”
