Chapter 154: A Contest of Pure Talent
The skill of the Brazilians, the will of the Germans, the defense of the Italians.
These are all things that are talked about by the fans, and it can be said that they are already the ultimate on the planet.
When it comes to technology, Brazilians will definitely consider themselves "the best in the world".
As a result, Brazilian football does not pay enough attention to tactics, and often feels that technology can decide everything.
What the Brazilian is best at playing is using sheer talent to crush all tactical designs.
What happens when SΓ£o Paulo and Santos compete for pure talent?
"Diego goal! Robinho used his skills to break through the defense of three Sao Paulo players and made it this goal with a timely low cross! Santos leads 1-0 at home! β
"After a fierce first half, it was Santos who broke the deadlock first! It's 51 minutes and Sao Paulo still have plenty of time to tie the score! β
"Kaka goal! Ricardo's running drew the attention of the Santos defenders, and Kaka burst into the box with a cold arrow! Brilliant goal! Now the two sides are back on the same page! β
"It was just four minutes before Santos' goal. In the first half, both sides did not score, and in the second half, one goal was two, and both sides played real fire! β
"A breakthrough for Ricardo! Pulled down by Almeida! The referee is about to play his cards. Sure enough, the referee showed Almeida a second yellow card, two yellows turned into one red, and Almeida's game ended early! The Santos players were so excited that they surrounded the referee to ask for an explanation! The referee shows Robinho a yellow card! β
"Abel. Braga were forced to make a substitution, replacing Willian and replacing the midfielder Alessandro. Silva, now only Robinho and Elano are left in the front. β
"Robinho, feint! Deducted Leonardo! Leonardo pulls him down from behind! It's a card-eating action! Sure enough, the referee ran over and showed Leonardo a yellow card. This is Leonardo's second yellow card! He's leaving early! β
Rojas made a substitution, replacing Rico with last season's first-choice right-back Simpricio. Simplicio has a minor injury, so he didn't start this game. β
'There were great goals, there were fierce scrambles, there were a lot of red and yellow cards, this is the derby! Familiar recipe, familiar taste! β
"There was a lot of anger on both sides, and Diego brought down Kaka from behind, which was unnecessary! It's time to eat cards again! β
"The players from SΓ£o Paulo gathered around and they were furious at Diego's actions. Cheney pushes Diego and the two sides clash. The referee intervened, separated the players from both sides, and he took out a yellow card, who was he going to give it to? β
"Give Cheney, the captain of Diego and SΓ£o Paulo, 50 boards each!"
Ricardo gasped for air, but with a smile on his face.
It was a really exciting and intense game.
Although it was just an ordinary league game, it made him feel like he was in the Champions League.
The two sides will fight for every inch of land, and the tip of the needle will be against the wheat mang, each showing its magical powers.
It's a real pleasure to be part of a competition like this.
Of course, it would be better if you could be the winning side in this game......
"In the 70th minute of the game, the score was still 1:1, and now both sides have been sent off by one person, 10 to 10."
"Torreo, who do you like to win now?"
Torreo shook his head and said, "I can't see it either." But I think both sides played very hard in this game, they played 100 per cent and they got good chances. In such a game, if you have to decide the winner and loser, it will be too cruel for the losing side. Maybe a draw would be fairer for both sides. β
Draw? Sounds good, but someone says no.
"Santos's attack, Robinho ran to the side to get the ball, he stepped on his bike. Broke through to the bottom line! Suddenly, he deflected the gap and shot from a small angle! Cheney racked the ball out! Renato shoots, goalllllll! Santos took the lead again! β
"When Robinho shot the goal, Cheney's vision was blocked, and he couldn't judge the route of the ball, so he could only shoot the ball out in a hurry, giving Santos a chance to make up the shot."
"Santos' stormy offense has finally paid off! Now that the game is in the 76th minute, there is not much time left for Sao Paulo to equalize! β
"Santos, who is leading the score, did not choose to shrink the defense, and is still gritting his teeth and pressing all over the court!"
"Sao Paulo attacked, Licardo took the ball and tried to shoot into the far corner! The ball is slightly off. β
"The situation is very bad for SΓ£o Paulo right now, and they have to find a way as soon as possible!"
"St. Paul is here again! Kaka takes the ball in the middle and breaks through in a row! It's time for the restricted area! Ready to shoot? It's a feint, passed to Simplicio! Simplicio shoots! goalοΌοΌοΌ β
"Simplicio, who came off the bench, has made a difference! It was his first goal of the season! The score became 2:2 and Sao Paulo equalized again! β
"Every San-Sao derby is so exciting!"
"With stoppage time and less than 10 minutes left, can both sides still score? Or will this match end in a draw? β
At this time, both sides experienced physical exhaustion. The first was that Kaka had cramps, but Sao Paulo had no substitutions left and he had to stay on the pitch.
Immediately after Abel. Braga used up their last substitution, replacing Diego with loan-on striker Baiano and allowing Elano to drop back and play up front. It seems that he is not willing to settle for a draw and intends to make a last-ditch effort.
Ricardo has also been less aggressive in his running and has reduced his dribbling, and now he can barely hold up his stamina until the end of the race, but with a few more sprints or a few more dribbles, he could follow in Kaka's footsteps.
And Rojas has no substitutions in his hands.
Both sides slowed down the tempo, but the scramble was just as intense.
In stoppage time, Kaka tripped on the edge of the Santos penalty area and the referee awarded Sao Paulo a free-kick in front of him, despite the protests of the Santos players.
"The ball was about 24 metres from the goal, so it was in a good position to shoot straight at goal. This may be Sao Paulo's last chance to attack, and it will be up to them to take advantage of it. Both Ricardo and Ricardinho have good free-kick skills, and let's not forget their captain Cheney, all three of whom have had the experience of scoring direct free-kicks in games. β
Cheney refused to take the penalty, fearing that the ball would not be scored at the last minute and would be stolen by Santos.
Ricardinho called Ricardo: "You can take this ball." β
Ricardo thought for a moment and whispered a few words in Ricardinho's ear. Ricardinho nodded.
Santos slowly set up the wall, with Ricardo and Ricardinho both standing in front of the ball.
The referee's whistle blew and Ricardo and Ricardinho started running at the same time.
