Chapter 38: The Defeat of Córdoba
This time, in Inzaghi's starting list, there are two more unfamiliar names, Kong Youhua and Kong Youzhong.
They are brothers who are only a year apart in age, and they grew up living with their parents, who worked in Brazil, and thus received their football initiation in a place known as the kingdom of football. Many years ago, they returned to China with their parents, and then they were spotted by the barefoot academy and underwent more systematic training. Now they are about the same age as Shao Yifan and Chen Wei, and they also have the ability to enter the head coach's eyes.
"Bringing in so many young players all at once, doesn't that take us seriously?" Córdoba captain Pita snorted to himself.
After the start of the game, the red football players held their breath in their hearts and fought harder. Apparently enraged by the insults of his opponents, he vowed to regain his dignity.
The Córdoban side also showed their outstanding team strength as a Spanish team, with a very tacit understanding and fluency, and defused the barefoot attacks again and again. And their captain Pita played at left back and happened to play against Shao Yifan.
Shao Yifan can clearly feel that the opponent's defensive ability is definitely far beyond that of ordinary domestic players. This put a lot of pressure on him. However, it was still within the scope of what he could handle.
Soon after the opening, Chen Wei found Shao Yifan on the side, Shao Yifan broke forward after taking the ball, and Pita intercepted in front of him.
"You don't want to pass me today!" Pita said in English.
"Really?" Shao Yifan snorted coldly, a classic ox tail passed him.
Pita looked a little embarrassed, but reacted quickly and chased after him. But soon, he was shocked again by Shao Yifan's speed, no matter how he chased it, he couldn't catch up with Shao Yifan with the ball.
Coming to the side of the penalty area, Shao Yifan did not hesitate to cross with his feet, and first chased Hudson to the penalty area to grab the front point, but unfortunately did not touch the ball. At this time, Bale, who followed closely, grabbed the back point and successfully pushed the ball into the net. At this point, the Cordoba defenders were a little annoyed, they didn't have time to react, or they were too slow to react.
Shao Yifan winked at Pita quietly, and Pita looked a little ugly. This conceded goal obviously has a lot to do with him, and it was his defensive mistakes that left Shao Yifan with such a big gap.
"Stinky boy, don't be complacent!" Pita gritted her teeth and said to herself.
However, this is just the beginning.
Ten minutes later, the Córdoba striker found his way into the barefoot box, but the ball was cleared and found at the feet of the Córdoba backfielder under the tight defence of the Kong brothers.
After Pita stopped the ball on the periphery, he saw Shao Yifan running towards him quickly, but he didn't make a pass immediately, but dribbled two more steps at his feet, as if he wanted to show off his ball skills with Shao Yifan. But it was precisely because of the delay of these two steps that Shao Yifan seized the opportunity and successfully stole the ball.
After getting the ball, Shao Yifan strode up and killed the opponent's goal. With such a good one-handed opportunity, he naturally won't give up easily.
Pita cursed in his heart, and hurriedly chased after him, but the battle just now had clearly shown that his speed was far inferior to Shao Yifan, and he saw that the distance of a few meters in the middle, but he just couldn't catch up.
At this time, the goalkeeper of Córdoba also hurried out to meet the enemy.
Shao Yifan had no choice in an instant.
But at this time, Shao Yifan's face still did not change, and a few meters away from the goalkeeper, he calmly made a feint to make the goalkeeper think that he was going to lead to the left, but in fact, he shot with one foot and picked the ball past the goalkeeper who pounced. Although the goalkeeper hurriedly turned to the rescue, the ball had already bounced into the net at a not very fast speed. Baixiao
2-0, barefoot and next!
After the goal, Shao Yifan smiled at Peeta, as if thanking him for giving him such a big gift.
Pita, on the other hand, had a gloomy face, and conceded two goals in a row, which were directly related to his mistakes, which made him secretly clench his fists and dare not be careless.
So, in the rest of the first half, Pita was particularly stubborn in organizing the defense and stopped Shao Yifan's pace of attacking again and again. In the end, the first half of the game ended with a score of 2-0.
Coming to the sidelines, Inzaghi said to Shao Yifan: "You pay attention in the second half, and don't be careless about that guy named Peta." ”
Shao Yifan nodded silently. Although he also had a sense of anger in his heart in the first half of the game, he did not let it affect him, and he calmly faced the rapidly changing situation on the field, which is what a qualified player should look like.
At the start of the second half, Inzaghi made a substitution and replaced Berio, another barefoot striker, with no intention of stopping.
The Córdoban side also showed a stronger mental outlook, and the constant high pressing made the red football players a little tired to cope.
Pita sneered inwardly as he confidently continued to push forward from the flanks after breaking the ball at the feet of a barefoot midfielder. And he did have two brushes, and after getting past a barefoot defender again, he cut inside the box with the ball.
"Stop him!" Shao Yifan was a little anxious.
At this time, the barefoot young defenders Kong brothers quickly ran over. The two quickly stopped in front of Peta, Pita snorted coldly, and tried to shake the two of them on the bicycle continuously, but helplessly, the cooperation between the two was really seamless, so he couldn't start. Forced between the two, the man passed, but the ball was left at the feet of the two.
Inzaghi nodded with satisfaction on the sidelines, he loved the two brothers more and more, perhaps because of the tacit understanding between their brothers, or maybe they were born good at defending, and they always used the best way to help the team save the day.
The patience of the Córdoba players was smoothed out little by little, and their vaunted passing and high pressing did not cause further problems for the bare feet. On the contrary, it was difficult for them to have a chance to appear under the tight defense of the bare feet, and the impact of the trident in the front court of the bare feet made them feel embarrassed.
Chen Wei is like a barefoot brain on the field, the beginning of every counterattack.
This time, after he took the ball again, he gave the ball to the right, Shao Yifan stepped forward to win the ball, and quickly cut in.
Seeing that the defense was not good, Pita could only put the shovel, Shao Yifan was attacked under his feet, and ran forward a few steps with some unsteady. The referee just wanted to blow the whistle to frustrate Pita's foul, but after seeing Shao Yifan take a few steps, he stabilized himself again and continued to dribble forward, so he put down the whistle.
came to the edge of the penalty area, without waiting for the defenders to block him, Shao Yifan kicked up and shot with a kick!
The ball passed in front of the Córdoba defender and escaped in front of the goalkeeper's fingers.
3-0, Shao Yifan completed the brace of the game!
As long as they do not die for the rest of the day, victory will be theirs.
Watching the opponent score another goal, Pita raised his head and looked at the sky with some disappointment, these people in front of him were obviously not what they used to be when they were slaughtered at will. And now Córdoba is no longer their opponent.
