Chapter 120: Santos with no fighting spirit

Seeing Lu Feng asking for the ball, his teammates didn't have any opinions, anyway, the score was already like this, the ball was given to Lu Feng, and it was impossible to lose more.

With such a heart, the teammates not only tolerated Lu Feng's ball, but also greatly cooperated with Lu Feng. Of course, now Santos still has enough desire to play on the field, except for Lu Feng, there should be only Sami and the newcomer Shang Siming left. Sammy is because of Lu Feng, so he can't just play in front of Lu Feng alone.

As the saying goes, a substitute who doesn't want to be a starter is not a good player. Shang Siming finally got a chance to start, even if the team lost, he had to show his attitude and strength and strive to get the next start. There's no way, who called Shang Siming just a substitute now, how can he do it if he doesn't work hard.

Lu Feng is the striker, while Sammy and Shang Siming are both midfielders. In attack, defenders are basically useless. Therefore, after receiving the support of the midfield, with Lu Feng as the fulcrum, Sami and Shang Siming as the support, Santos can finally play a decent attack.

After several attacks, relying on the small cooperation between the three, Santos's attack was finally able to advance to the vicinity of Cruzeiro's penalty area.

After such a succession of attacks, Cruzeiro's players also noticed the three who were still fighting spirit of Santos and strengthened their defense. For a while, the scene of being able to push the attack into the opponent's penalty area no longer appeared.

On this side, Lu Feng can easily see that the possibility of scoring a little goal will disappear because Cruzeiro has increased the defensive intensity, but Lielong on the other side is happy.

Because of the active attack of the three Lu Feng, it made the Cruzeiro players a little uneasy. You know, Santos hasn't done anything to fall behind and overtake. The big reason why Santos can be played like this today is because Santos himself, not because Cruzeiro is stronger than the other party.

As a result, Cruzeiro's players are in good spirits again. And most of the Santos players are still sleepwalking, and in such a situation, Lielong really doesn't want to be too happy.

I don't know if Lielong has used up his good luck. Over the next few minutes, Lielong had two great chances in quick succession, but none of them were scored.

Once at the edge of the six-yard penalty area, even Gulidev couldn't do anything about his shot, but accidentally hit the post and popped up.

There was also an angle and a tricky shot, which was also touched by Gulidev's incredible fingertips.

After missing two excellent scoring opportunities, Lielong could only watch as the senior who was about to come to him slipped away. After all, after missing two good chances in a row, it affected not only the morale of Cruzeiro's players, but also Lielong's own confidence.

The clock soon entered the final minute of regular time in the first half. The fourth official held up a sign on the sidelines signaling that there would be two minutes of stoppage time in the first half.

As the game got to this point, Cruzeiro's players also looked nonchalant when they played.

Why do so many goals on the football pitch take place in the minutes before the end of the second half, because at this time, the players are the most relaxed and the most prone to mistakes. At this time, one mistake can lead to conceding a goal.

In the 46th minute, when Cruzeiro midfielder Mirasso was slowly carrying the ball near the center circle, a figure suddenly burst out from behind Mirasso, stretched out his foot and broke the ball.

It was Lu Feng who came, Lu Feng often scored goals in stoppage time, and he knew very well about the players' hearts during this time, knowing that at this time, most of the players' minds were in the locker room and they were not prepared at all.

When he saw the opposing midfielder Mirasso slowly moving towards the Santos half with the ball, Lu Feng acted and chased back from behind Cruzeiro's half, which is Mirasso.

Sure enough, Miraso didn't expect anyone to steal the ball from behind him, and in the blink of an eye, Lu Feng had already cut off his ball and went straight to the Cruzeiro goal with the ball.

All this was done in just a few seconds, not to mention the players on the field, even the audience and the commentators did not react.

When everyone reacted, Lu Feng was less than 30 meters away from Cruzeiro's goal. Just kidding, the speed of the land breeze, that's not covered.

Cruzeiro's two central defenders appeared in front of them like a wind when they saw Lu Fengfeng, and in such a cold day, their backs were instantly soaked.

Stopping him, the two Cruzeiro centre-backs had only one thought in mind.

However, the two of them made the same mistake as many players who defend Lu Feng, that is, they miscalculated Lu Feng's speed, or took it for granted that Lu Feng could not run so fast.

However, this is just their assumption, Lu Feng is really so fast.

In an instant, the two Cruzeiro central defenders have changed from being in front of Lu Feng to being behind Lu Feng.

Lu Feng, who has passed the defender and faced the goalkeeper, will he miss this kind of scoring opportunity?

The answer, of course, is no.

In the 46th minute, relying on the negligence of Cruzeiro players, Lu Feng successfully pulled a goal back for Santos and rewrote the score to 3-1.

That was the end of the first half, and although Lu Feng scored a goal, the best player of the first half was undoubtedly Cruzeiro's Lielong.

..

Back in the locker room, Curry didn't care about his image at all, and he scolded the players. The team's performance was so disappointing for him.

After a bitter scolding, Curry gave another ultimatum. In the second half, he played all his best, and if anyone still played as casually as in the first half, then he would not play in Santos in the future.

With the BUFF of "Coach's Roar/Threat", Santos in the second half finally became the Santos that everyone is familiar with.

Of course, the change in Santos, Cruzeiro's head coach naturally expected it. In the second half of the game, Cruzeiro set up an iron bucket formation and waited for Santos' attack. It seems that he also knows that Santos can't continue the same form as in the first half, and it is better to be conservative with the advantage of holding two balls.

As a result, in the second half of the game, the situation on the field became a one-sided trend. Throughout the second half, Cruzeiro did not have a single shot on goal, and the possession rate was less than 4 percent, and it is conceivable that Cruzeiro definitely drove the bus to the door of their penalty area.

No matter how indiscriminately Santos bombarded Cruzeiro's goal, Cruzeiro's goal just didn't concede. At the end, when the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, the Santos players collapsed to the ground one by one, forced to accept the reality of defeat.
