Chapter 629: Goal in stoppage time
After a minute-long half-time pass, the ball reached the feet of Ricardo.
Alves and Xavi immediately moved closer, but neither of them rushed to the ground.
Ricardo stopped in place and made a few feints while observing his teammate's movements.
Suddenly, with a flick of his ankle, he lifted the ball high and flew over Alves' head to the baseline.
Alex. Sandro cut in at high speed, stopped the ball before the ball flew off the baseline, and then slammed it past the snatching Batra to send a half-high ball to the middle.
The hearts of Barcelona fans are tugging.
However, Ronaldo and Busquets were entangled, half a beat slower, and did not touch the ball.
The ball continued to fly, and Modric stretched out his foot without touching the ball.
The ball flew to the back post, Alba controlled the ball, quickly played the ball to the side, and Barcelona counter-attacked.
However, Sanchez was clearly unable to run, and after taking a few steps with the ball, he stopped to give the ball to his team-mate, but the rest of the Barcelona players did not quickly follow.
He had to hold on to the ball and wait for his teammates to catch up before passing, but there was no room for a counter-attack.
Barcelona got into a slow rhythm of possession again.
Of course, QPR players will not let them dominate and use their last strength to press forward.
Barcelona's players are not machines, they can get tired and they can make mistakes.
After a minute of passing, Busquets was forced to pass the ball off the touchline.
QPR serves sideline balls. Now the game is 92 minutes past and 93 minutes are coming.
The referee was already looking down at his watch from time to time.
It is impossible for the QPR players not to be in a hurry, but Ricardo kept shouting, "calm down", "steady", "play slowly", so they still controlled the rhythm, passed without hurry, and did not rush forward to give the ball.
After a few successive passes, the ball came to the feet of Modric, who took the ball with his back, but as if he had eyes behind his back, he suddenly turned around, and at the same time he turned his kick, the ball accurately avoided the Barcelona player, passed through the only gap, and came to the feet of Ricardo.
Barcelona fans are nervous again.
Ricardo took the ball outside the penalty area and made a gesture to rush into the box, but he changed the direction of the ball and went outside. Batra immediately followed, assisting Alves.
Ricardo didn't go down firmly, he suddenly pulled the ball back and made a gesture to cross, but it was still a feint, and he kicked out with his right foot and then changed direction and slammed the ball towards the baseline.
Batra made a mistake in his rush and rushed out of the foot, which hit Ricardo's ankle right in.
Ricardo went to the ground, the referee blew the whistle, and it was a free-kick.
Ricardo did not waste time, got up quickly after rolling on the ground, did not call the team doctor, and limped into the penalty area.
Luka Modric arrives in front of the ball and prepares to take the penalty.
The clock is 93 minutes and 15 seconds, and this may be the last chance for QPR to attack.
Of course, since the team was not behind, Handanovic did not run into the Barcelona penalty area.
But except for Alex. Sandro and Walker stayed outside midfield, with the rest of the QPR players crowding into Barcelona's penalty area to prepare for the aerial battle.
Modric silently observed the situation, ran and got up.
The ball arced in a big arc and flew very high towards the far corner of the goal, and I don't know if he wanted to cross or shoot, and the players in front and in the middle didn't reach the ball.
Valdés didn't rush into action either, there were too many people in the box, and if he hit someone else while still touching the ball, it would be a big problem.
The ball spun strongly to the back point, and Ricardo took out the speed of a 100-meter sprint to catch the ball in front of the baseline, and looked back at the moon and pointed the ball back to the middle.
Icardi suddenly jumped in the middle and fired a volley.
Valdés' vision was blocked, and by the time he saw the ball, it had already crossed the goal line.
Icardi turned to Ricardo to celebrate, and the Barcelona players immediately raised their hands in protest, believing that Icardi had pushed Batra before the take.
Everyone looked at the referee. His verdict will determine the outcome of this match.
The referee didn't hesitate as he blew the whistle and pointed to the centre circle.
The goal works!
The Loftus Road pitch was boiling with streamers, hats, and scarves flying into the sky.
"Icardi Goallllllll! His goal in the final stages of stoppage time saved QPR, who won the matchup with a thrilling score of 3:2! The narrator shouted.
"Today's QPR burst out with great fighting power and they are better than they were against Galatasaray! The biggest contributor to QPR today was Ricardo, who dominated the whole game with two passes and one shot. ”
"For Barcelona, the turning point of the game was Messi's end. If Messi stays on the field, the final outcome is still unknown! ”
Immediately after Barcelona kick-off, the referee blew the whistle three times.
Iniesta kicked the ball out of the stands in a fit of rage, causing the fans to scramble.
QPR won against Barcelona for the first time in its history! With such a commemorative football, everyone wants to bring it home.
The QPR players, led by Ricardo, greeted the fans as a team.
Messi also limped back to the pitch to thank the Barcelona fans who had come from afar.
After doing this, he came to Ricardo and wanted to exchange jerseys.
Ricardo was a little unhappy: "It's not that I don't have your jersey, I want to change it with Sanchez." ”
"I haven't collected your QPR jersey yet, so change it with me." Messi said with no frustration on his face and a smile.
Ricardo had no choice but to switch with him. At the end, Ricardo said: "Recuperate, I hope to see a healthy you in the next round." ”
"It's hard," Messi sighed, "the team doctor said I needed to rest for 10 days. There are only 7 days left for the next round. ”
"There's nothing rewarding to beat Barcelona without you."
"Barcelona without me is Barcelona," Messi gave him a blank look, "you don't want to take advantage of the Camp Nou." ”
"Hehehe, we'll see."
"Hehe, you're a ghost!"
The two joked and walked side by side into the players' tunnel.
At the post-match press conference, Simeone's hands trembled with emotion. 'I'm very happy with the way the lads played, we played in our style against the strong Barcelona and got the win we deserved. The Loftus Road post seemed to be against us today, otherwise we could have won more. ”
'Ricardo has a lot of experience with Barcelona and he gave a lot of interesting advice before the game, and I think most of the credit for winning this game should be due to him.
Pep Guardiola is worried about Messi's injury, "Our biggest loss is not to lose this game, because I am confident that we can win it back at home. Our biggest loss was Messi's injury. Let's pray for his recovery before the second round. ”
