Chapter 223: Another Long Shot

But years of professional training have left the Wigan Athletic goalkeeper's eyes wide and his eyes fixed on football.

So the next thing he saw was the football picked up by that foot!

The football that was close at hand, almost at his fingertips, was picked up by him with his own fists!

The attacking Wigan Athletic goalkeeper's fist could no longer be contained, and he only hit a cloud of air when he swung it out, and he tried to find the trail of the football, but as soon as he looked up, he was almost blinded by the dazzling sunlight.

For a moment, he didn't know where the football had gone.

The Wigan Athletic goalkeeper can't see the football, but the others do.

"Land Breeze! He reached out to pick up the ball before the Wigan Athletic goalkeeper! Pretty! He did it! The football was picked by the outgoing Wigan Athletic goalkeeper! Now he has an empty goal in front of him! ”

Wang Kai screamed excitedly.

He was really excited because he finally saw the scene he had been looking forward to, Lu Feng was about to score!

After picking out the goalkeeper, Lu Feng spread his arms to maintain his balance, and at the same time separated the defenders who might pounce, and then volleyed sideways to pump the football into the goal! There is no suspense about this anymore.

The soccer ball hit the net hard and it went in!

In the 27th minute, Leeds equalized!

Lu Feng, he reached out before the Wigan Athletic goalkeeper and successfully picked the ball away. Pretty!

Now he is facing an empty goal, and no one can stop Lu Feng from scoring!

A beautiful volley, Lu Feng scored a beautiful goal. Lu Feng has scored in every game since joining Leeds United, and this is his tenth goal.

If it weren't for Lu Feng's transfer to Leeds United in the winter window, perhaps there would be no suspense as the top scorer in the Championship this season.

Now, with only half a season to spare, no matter how good Lu Feng is, the goal gap of nearly 20 is not so easy to chase. ”

After Wang Kai excitedly explained, he analyzed it with a little regret.

He is indeed a pity, if Lu Feng could have joined Leeds United earlier, maybe he could really get the Championship Golden Boot.

Winning the Golden Boot in two leagues in one season is an unprecedented record.

It's a pity that the players on the Championship scorer list this season have scored a lot of goals, and Lu Feng will most likely not win the Championship Golden Boot.

It's a pity that Lu Feng is in such a good state this year, if the Brazilian league season ends earlier, maybe Lu Feng really has a chance to win the golden boot in two leagues, which is a pity.

After hearing Wang Kai's words, the eyes of Chinese fans suddenly lit up.

That's right, Lu Feng is in such good shape, why can't he get the Golden Boot in the Championship in half a season.

However, when they saw the Championship scorer list, they couldn't help but curse. The first-ranked Nottingham Forest striker Alz has actually scored 25 league goals, a number of goals that Lu Feng basically can't catch up.

After all, most of the Championship has passed, and there are only more than ten rounds left, and the difference of almost 20 league goals means that Lu Feng will score in every game in the next game, and at the same time, he has to pray that Alz can't score.

It's just too difficult.

Of course, there are also some Lu Feng fans who don't believe in evil, thinking that Lu Feng can create miracles, and they even said on social media that if Lu Feng can win the Championship Golden Boot, they will run naked and eat Xiang.

The rest of the fans are in the mindset of watching the show, because it's almost impossible to do.

......

On the field, after Lu Feng scored, he didn't celebrate for a while.

Mainly, this goal comes from Robert's attack, Lu Feng is thinking, whether to celebrate the goal with the other party, this goal has Robert's credit.

After a short period of thought, Lu Feng decided to celebrate the goal with Robert. Lu Feng is not a villain who will repay him, since Robert has selflessly assisted him, so what's the point of thanking him.

Thinking of this, Lu Feng rushed towards Robert, who was in a daze.

Robert was still unexpected.

He didn't expect that Lu Feng's speed was so fast, and Lu Feng could get this ball that he didn't have a good shot before the opponent's goalkeeper.

Before he could react, Lu Feng had already hugged him and said. "Thank you, Robert, for what a beautiful pass!"

Robert subconsciously wanted to push Lu Feng away, after all, he didn't like Lu Feng.

However, halfway through his hand, he put it down.

Lu Feng has already taken the initiative to come to him to celebrate the goal, if Lu Feng is pushed away at this time, will it seem that he has a small belly, and will it make others think that the two of us have a conflict.

Thinking of this, Robert stopped what he was doing and let Lu Feng hold him.

The teammates saw Lu Feng and Robert, who were hugging each other to celebrate the goal, and looked at each other one by one.

Didn't it mean that the two of them didn't like each other, what was the situation, why did the two of them still assist each other, and at the same time, they could actually celebrate goals together.

Is it because I am dazzled, or is the world changing too fast. Will the next second, the two of them will fight?

However, when they found out that Lu Feng and Robert were really hugging each other to celebrate the goal, and the two had no intention of fighting, they also hugged Lu Feng and Robert.

Either way, it's a good thing for Leeds United that Lu Feng and Robert can get along, and who cares about the reasons behind it.

......

On the sidelines, Klopp saw the scene of Lu Feng and Robert talking.

However, he didn't expect that after just talking for a long time, such a cooperation could be formed between the two of them, allowing Lu Feng to score this equalizing goal, which was indeed a bit unexpected to him.

Looking at the Leeds United players as they hugged each other to celebrate their goals, Klopp smiled.

This Leeds United team is really good!

Lu Feng's goal quieted the stadium a lot, and after the home team's goal, Wigan Athletic fans were in high spirits, singing and cheering.

And now watching the Leeds players celebrate, they forgot to boo.

This may be because Lu Feng's goal is so beautiful, so beautiful that they can't bear to boo.

Of course, this pure appreciation of football doesn't take long for the home fans, who still choose to cheer for their teams when the game resumes, and when Leeds have been in possession for a long time, boos can be heard throughout the stadium.

The fans are still very supportive of their team and are trying to cause problems for Leeds in every possible way.

However, when Lu Feng equalised with a brilliant goal, the mentality of Leeds United players changed.

They were originally quite anxious before, but they are not in a hurry.

For Leeds United, even a point in this game is an acceptable scenario, after all, with one point, they are still ahead of Blackburn.

At the same time, the equalizer in the first half means that Leeds United still have a good chance to win this game, and there is a whole second half.

Wigan Athletic, as an opponent, actually does not have to win this game at home.

If they can win Leeds United without blood, then of course they are willing. But if they are asked to give their all and take a big risk to win this game, Wigan Athletic's players may have to think carefully about whether it is worth it.

If you want to win, you have to consider the cost.

So the pace of the Wigan Athletic players has slowed down.

After Lu Feng equalized, the field looked dull for a while.

High-quality offense and defense on both sides rarely appear.

Time was running out until the end of the first half, with both sides heading through the final stages of the first half with the mentality that no goal is good.

After all, the game was played for almost half and the players were tired and needed to rest.

There are still 45 minutes left in the second half, and even if you want to win, you have to keep your fitness until the second half.

Seeing such a scene, the British commentator couldn't help but shake his head.

"It's a very dull situation on the pitch right now, and at the moment, Leeds are still firmly in possession, but they haven't actually played a few effective attacks. It makes me wonder if this is the attacking Leeds team.

As for Wigan Athletic, after they were equalised by Leeds United after missing a couple of chances to score, they seemed to have resigned themselves to their fate and did not want to attack. Maybe for Wigan Athletic, it is already a good ending to get a point on the strong Leeds team.

This makes me wonder if Wigan Athletic is playing at home in this game. Listen to the cheers of these fans, are the Wigan Athletic players worthy of the support of the fans with such a performance? ”

As a neutral commentator, he naturally wants to see that kind of exciting game, so that he can have a passionate commentary.

A boring and dreary scene like this will naturally be criticized by him.

......

Actually, it's not that the two teams play negatively, don't want to win, and play with the mentality of scoring one point each.

Rather, after each conceded a goal and returned to the same running line, the players of both teams played more cautiously.

In such a situation, it is naturally impossible for the two sides to get too good offensive opportunities, which also leads to the dullness of the field. It's not what the players on both sides want to see, in fact, if they can win the game, who wants to lose or draw.

In such a calm scene, the rest of the first half of the game kept dwindling.

On the sidelines, the fourth official had already held up a sign signaling three minutes of stoppage time in the first half.

The game entered the final stage of the first half.

Of course, at this time, both sides were also cautious, and in stoppage time, they conceded the most goals. Any team can be scored by the opposition if they are not careful.

This time, Leeds United's attack advanced from the wing, and Gomez, who had the ball, was almost close to the opponent's baseline.

Robert, as the central striker at the top, naturally pressed in front of goal, and he pressed almost the entire back line of Wigan Athletic into the small penalty area.

Even Wigan Athletic's midfielders pressed closer to Wigan Athletic's penalty area than Lu Feng, a striker.

Lu Feng and Hernandez were right behind Robert, forming the second echelon of Leeds United's attack, pressing Wigan Athletic's midfield defence into the box as well.

In this way, at the front of the big forbidden area, there was a vacancy.

When Gomez faced the opposing defender near the baseline and couldn't break through, he looked up to see Lu Feng, who had just run to the top of the free throw arc and raised his hand towards him to ask for it.

Without any hesitation, Gomez made a big foot to pass the ball.

"Gomez inverted triangle pass!"

The ball penetrated the Wigan Athletic defence, which was compressed into the penalty area, and was picked up by the land breeze at the top of the penalty arc.

When he received the ball, Wigan Athletic's defenders pounced.

Lu Feng stopped the ball lightly, immediately slashed it with his right foot, and completed the shot before the opponent's defender blocked it.

The shot was so powerful that the ball rolled against the turf into the far corner of the goal, and the Wigan Athletic goalkeeper couldn't touch the ball even though he reacted quickly and fell to the ground in time to save on the side.

In first-half stoppage time, the football flew into the Wigan Athletic goal for the second time, and Lu Feng scored twice to help Leeds United overtake the score!

What is the saying?

It's better to come early than to come at a good time!

After Leeds equalised, everyone thought the game would be a little calmer, but in fact it was a dull scene.

But I didn't expect this dullness to be broken by Lu Feng so quickly.

Lu Feng made a very common forward step, and a long-range shot at the top of the arc actually pierced the goal of Wigan Athletic for the second time!

"Land Breeze scored twice! It was his eleventh goal since joining Leeds United and his seventh league goal! With Lu Feng's beautiful long-range shot, Leeds United overtook the score and took the lead! This couldn't be better news for Leeds United! ”

After the goal, Lu Feng did not run excitedly to celebrate, but stood in place, waiting with open arms for his teammates to come up and hug him.

The moment the soccer ball flew out at his feet, he had a strong premonition that the goal had been scored.

As expected, football really went in.

Robert was in front of Wigan Athletic's goal, glanced at a football that had stopped in the goal, and then at Land Breeze.

Although Leeds United overtook the scoreline, it was happy news. However, Robert still had a vague upset in his heart.

Why is this kid scoring again, why is it not himself.

TMD, the limelight of this game, has made that kid have enough.

......

On the sidelines, Klopp saw the moment Lu Feng scored, and happily waved his fist and roared.

Although it was only a reversal of the scoreline, it is safe for Leeds United to be able to take a one-goal lead now.

Even if Wigan Athletic pulled a goal back in the second half, it would have been a draw and it would not be unacceptable for Leeds.

Moreover, judging from the level of the two teams, when Leeds United is not in a hurry, it is difficult to say whether Wigan Athletic will definitely be able to equalize.

This game, for Leeds United, is basically stable.

Next, let's hope Blackburn makes a mistake.

Jurgen Klopp is not convinced that Blackburn, who are competing for the league title with Leeds United, cannot make a mistake.

Once Blackburn lose points, then the gap between the two sides will widen even further.

The higher the forgiveness for Leeds United! The better the chances of winning the league!
