419 In a desperate situation

To be honest, Lu Ke is a little nervous now.

It's not so much because of the tension of the game itself, but because of the lack of experience in the game, there are more potential surprises to face. There were enough accidents today, the New York Giants were not an easy opponent to deal with, and in the blink of an eye, all the advantages that had been established before were eroded, and the game, which was originally full of confidence and leisurely strolling, suddenly entered the white-hot stage of bayonets seeing red.

To add insult to injury, in the third quarter of the game, Lu Ke had no feeling at all.

In fact, with such a bad performance, there has not been a single interception so far today, and Lu Ke feels that luck has been on his side - it is estimated that the luck in this game should be positive, and the actual number is not low. But relying on luck alone is not enough, Lu Ke needs to recover as soon as possible and regain the rhythm of winning.

With just over seven minutes to go and a meagre lead, the San Francisco 49ers are far from being at the point where they can sit back and relax, and they must score again, even if it's a free-kick, to stabilize their pace and tempo for a while before resuming their offense.

Now the first step is to get back to the touch. It's not about those numbers in the system, it's about the player's state of play.

Some players have extremely high technical and talent values, but they can only play 50% in the game, so it is also in vain, and the strength on paper cannot be converted into combat effectiveness after all; And some players are born with average data, but they are born for the game, and they can always play 120% in the process of the game, so the results are naturally different.

Lu Ke has always belonged to the latter.

Therefore, under the tense emotion, Lu Ke did not panic, nor did he force himself to calm down, but began to constantly mobilize himself, turning pressure into motivation and nervousness into excitement/emotion, after experiencing the strength of the first half, the dullness of the third quarter and the sluggishness of the first half of the fourth quarter, now the game has entered the sprint stage, and it is time to start a real battle.

"21:20", the San Francisco 49ers who were fighting at home still maintained the lead, and Lu Ke led the offensive team to play again.

This time, Lu Ke's feeling finally began to warm up.

In a ten-yard game, Lu Ke made a small pass of five yards, found Vernon Davis, who came to receive the ball, and took the first step easily.

In the second gear of five yards, in the face of the New York Giants' four-man rushing pass, Lu Ke unexpectedly took the initiative to run out of the pocket, and after attracting three defenders, he quickly found Ted Jean who cut inside with a fourteen-yard pass, and then continued to push forward for five yards, for a total of nineteen yards.

The tempo and efficiency of the attack were getting back on the familiar track, but unfortunately, there was still a bit of luck when it came to the 38-yard line in the opposition half.

failed to break through on a run and was knocked to the ground early; A short pass advanced two yards, but because the opponent saw through the line, it did not have an unexpected effect; The last short pass was nine yards, but Logan Newman was under the defense of Jason Pierre, he was stunned and stuck in position, watching the rugby fly away from his hand and fall into an open field.

Strikeouts out.

Lack of luck is one thing, and at the same time, Lu Ke feels that his prediction and passing are still not 100% feeling, and he needs to adjust his state again to find the most suitable rhythm. This game is not over yet, Lu Ke clenched his fists heavily, and still did not lose confidence.

After missing the opportunity to push further, the San Francisco 49ers faced a 53-yard free-kick, to kick or not to play?

Free kicks are risky, and if a free kick is missed within the 20-yard line, the opponent will start attacking at the 20-yard line; If a free kick is missed from outside the 20-yard line, the opponent will start attacking above the tee-line.

It was a free-kick from the 38-yard line, meaning that the New York Giants would have been attacking beyond the 38-yard line if David Akons hadn't scored.

After a moment of hesitation, Jim Hubble, who has always dared to take risks, chose to try a free kick.

As the crowd watched with bated breath, David Akens' 53-yard free-kick attempt – unfortunately deflected wide of the net and failed to score. Under the exclamations of the audience, Akens stood in place, his face full of depression and sadness.

It was Arkens' first free-kick of the season.

While no one expects the kicker to score 100 per cent throughout the season, let alone a free-kick attempt from over fifty yards; But Akens still can't hide his disappointment, this free kick is definitely worth a thousand dollars for the team, if he loses the game because of this free kick, Akens is bound to be extremely regretful.

However, if you lose it, you lose it, and there is no other way.

When the special service team got off the field, Lu Ke took the initiative to step forward and give Akens a hug, without too many words, everything was silent. The rest of the offensive team also stepped forward to greet and comfort Akens.

The New York Giants, who were back on the pitch, stood above the 38-yard line, and they didn't need to return to win an excellent starting position, and if they could score, whether it was a free kick or a touchdown, they would have the advantage in this game; It would be great if you could also consume the time you have to play.

The entire Candlestick Stadium finally woke up again, and the noise attack was cathartic in an attempt to add a touch of support to the home team in the final moments.

……

"Can you believe it? God, can you believe it? Eli Manning, Eli Manning again! The New York Giants' leading quarterback, at the most critical moment of the fourth quarter, completed a 42-yard long pass and successfully found Victor Cruz, under the defense of two players, Cruz almost pulled out his teeth, picked the football hard, and landed in the end zone! ”

Five minutes later, the entire Candlestick Stadium was silent, and the entire commentary booth was boiling.

"Touchdown, it's a touchdown! Incredible! It's incredible! ”

"The San Francisco 49ers defense put up an absolutely tough defense, pushing the opponent into a desperate situation of three 12 yards. In the first half, Lu Ke once made a fatal touchdown of 61 yards in the middle of the three-level seventeen-yard trap, which completely destroyed the confidence of the New York Giants defensive group; This time, with the same performance, the protagonist is Eli Manning! ”

Manning's super long pass was a little unstable, and the flight trajectory was a little bumpy, but Cruz got it! He managed to get it! Defeated two defenders and completed a crucial catch-up touchdown! God, God! The New York Giants completed the overtake for the first time in this game! ”

The fans at the Cindelabra Stadium seemed stunned and couldn't believe their eyes, and for the first time they fell silent in the face of Cruz's wanton celebration, and now the momentum on the pitch has been reversed! Once again, the outcome of the game is in the unknown! ”

When the New York Giants really needed a touchdown, Manning Jr. stepped forward and gave a touchdown, not only successfully overtaking the score, "21:27", which was the first time that the Giants took the lead in the whole game; At the same time, it also consumed a lot of time, at least three times in the third gear to complete the transition, compressing and recompressing the space of the San Francisco 49ers' counter-attack.

Looking at the silence and dazedness of the Candlestick Stadium, you can know how huge the fatal long pass at the critical moment was, and how huge the blow was, in one fell swoop, shattered all the confidence accumulated in the first half of the game.

Not only the fans, but also the commentators were shouting, exclaiming, and marveling.

"Eli Manning, now it's in such a situation again, the first three quarters of the game continue to dig holes, the fourth quarter of the game began to fill the holes, in this team, it always seems to have such a gambler's demeanor, explosive power at critical moments, a combination of punches, the opponent is full of stars, can't come back to his senses at all, after losing and retreating, the game is back in the hands of the giants, step by step closer to victory."

After saying this, Teddy himself was dumbfounded, and he couldn't believe that it was all happening again.

"That's how the New England Patriots lost the Super Bowl, and how many other strong teams lost their matchups with the New York Giants, and Eli Manning in the fourth quarter looked like an all-powerful god of war, and now, is this kind of routine coming to the San Francisco 49ers again?"

Under the condition of maintaining the lead in the whole game, now the San Francisco 49ers are actually behind, and there are two minutes and 28 seconds left in the game, after the kickoff, it is estimated that the time left for Lu Ke is about two minutes.

Of course, this team will never admit defeat easily, the Jedi reversal at the last moment, they have such a striking ability, the question is that Lu Ke, whose performance seems to be gradually declining in the second half, can he just find his form? ”

Desperate, truly desperate, not only in the situation of leading the whole game, but falling behind in the predicament of falling behind at the end of the game; What's more important is the suppression and infringement of momentum, which really made the entire Candlestick Stadium fall into a dull state.

After a brief moment of consternation, the fans began to cheer and cheer for the home team again, but their voices seemed to lack a hint of emotion. Could it be that the New York giant's curse will also hang over Candlestick Stadium?

The special service team was still on the field preparing to kick off, and Lu Ke stood on the sidelines, gathering his teammates together, there were not many thoughts in his mind, and the enthusiastic and impassioned words seemed to have disappeared, he just looked at his teammates one by one, and said calmly and firmly:

"I'm ready! I'm ready to go out on this field, I'm ready to beat those opponents, I'm ready to reawaken the magic of this stadium, I'm ready to get some touchdowns, I'm ready for this win!" Yes, I'm ready, then, who else is ready, join this war with me! ”

Loud!
