Chapter 338: History Changes!
Lineker and Zhang Yang were discussing a bet when Barcelona had already made a penalty.
"Look at this foot! Harveyβ"
"The ball is in!"
Xavi scored the first penalty for Barcelona.
When he saw Arsenal send Ashley Cole, Zhang Yang said to Lineker, "Then let's start now!" Arsenal fielded by Ashley Cole...... Well, I judge that Cole will score. β
"I think it's going to go in, too."
"This doesn't work, does it? How can you be the same as me. β
Lineker said of course, "That's the famous Cole!" Of course I would think I could kick in. β
"Okay. Next time you say it first. β
Next up Cole scored the ball and Barcelona sent Andres Iniesta.
"What about this time?"
Lineker said: "Andres Iniesta is a great young player for Barcelona with a very good technique, and he has been selected for the Spanish team this year to play with Spain at the World Cup in Germany. I'm sure Andres Iniesta can score the ball. β
Zhang Yang smiled, "According to your analysis, all the players who played in Barcelona were able to score the ball?" β
"You don't think Iniesta can get in?"
"Can't get in!"
"The Champions League final is a very important game, when it comes to penalty shootouts, the players will be very nervous, the younger they are, the easier it is to be nervous, Iniesta is very good, but there is a great chance of mistakes. β
"Then let's seeβ"
With Lineker's shout, Andres Iniesta took the penalty and the ball went straight to the right side of the goal, where Arsenal goalkeeper Almunia made a mistake and couldn't have saved the ball.
This is where the turning point happens!
The soccer ball hit the right post headfirst and bounced out!
"Arsenal are ahead!"
Lineker's shouting tone was also full of wry smiles, one was that he wanted Barcelona to win, and the other was that Zhang Yang was right again, and Iniesta failed to score the goal.
"Let you guess it once. Then let's move on! β
"It's just a matter of luck."
Next for Arsenal was Ljungberg, who said, "Ljungberg is difficult to score." β
"Your judgment is that you can't get in?"
"That's right."
Lineker and Zhang Yang screwed up, "I think I can get in, Ljungberg is no problem!" β
Ljungberg then kicked the ball high over the crossbar.
ββ¦β¦β
Lineker didn't know what to say, he found that he should stay calm, the three balls were different from what Zhang Yang said, and the mistakes were all his own.
"I won twice." Zhang Yang smiled, "Today's luck is really good. β
Next, Zhang Yang deliberately made a mistake, he guessed that Jiuli could not score, and Jiuli completed the goal.
Lineker recovers 'one point'.
This recovered point also made Lineker full of confidence, "You can't always guess. He didn't know that Zhang Yang was releasing water and deliberately guessed wrong, even if he was only ahead once, he would definitely win.
"Of course, no one can be sure that they are right." Zhang Yang showed that he didn't care, which made Lineker a little annoyed, and then he felt that he seemed to care too much, and he became a football commentator, but he still couldn't let go of a winning heart.
Zhang Yang didn't know Lineker's complex mentality, and after being wrong once, he couldn't release the water next.
Playing for Arsenal in the fourth round was Campbell.
As a veteran defender, Campbell's footwork is also very good, Zhang Yang and Lineker both judged that 'can score', and Campbell really kicked the ball into the Barcelona goal.
Larsson plays.
Zhang Yang said that Larsson could score, but Lineker could only guess 'not to score', because he was still one point behind, and as Zhang Yang guessed, there was no chance of recovery.
This time Larsson still scored the ball.
"The fourth round is over, if you want to catch up with me, you have to guess it twice, of course, now that the two teams are tied, maybe there will be more penalties." Zhang Yang said with great interest that he couldn't wait to see Lineker's Superman COS.
Lineker said bitterly, "Can you cancel the bet?" β
"Of course...... No way. Zhang Yang said, "You are a public figure, a legendary star in England, you don't talk much, the fans in front of the TV don't agree first, otherwise we will do a questionnaire?" β
"No need. Thank you for the compliment. β
Henry came out.
As Arsenal's finalist, Lineker immediately concluded that Henry could score the ball, but Zhang Yang thought Henry couldn't, "I think Henry may make a mistake. Thierry Henry is a very good striker, but the better the player, the more likely he is to make mistakes at crucial times, which is often the case in professional football. β
"Like David Beckham...... Well, I'm sure I don't need to give too many examples. β
Lineker, of course, guessed that he could go in.
Tragically, Henry's shot hit the crossbar and bounced off.
At that moment, the hearts of Arsenal fans were broken.
"Henry made a mistake!"
"The ball didn't go in!"
"The opportunity has been given to the people of Barcelona!"
Pessimism spreads.
It was a real spread, and the atmosphere in the live broadcast room was a little heavy, and Zhang Yang also said in a low voice, "I really don't want to be a crow's mouth, but I didn't expect to guess it again." I should say Thierry Henry can score. β
It's an afterthought.
Seeing that Thierry Henry didn't score the ball, Zhang Yang suddenly felt that he should do something, Arsene Wenger was his old friend, and Wenger was very optimistic about himself when he first coached Millwall.
There are a lot of Arsenal fans who support him.
While they choose to support Arsenal when Millwall play Arsenal, other times they are also ardent supporters.
In addition, there are enough championships in Barcelona!
In his memory of his previous life, Zhang Yang clearly knew that Barcelona's football, as well as Spanish football, began to rise from Barcelona winning the double, and in the next few years, Europe will be the world of Barcelona, and international football will be the world of the Spanish team.
Is it time to watch Arsenal's efforts come to naught, ending in tragedy?
No!
If you have the power to make a difference, why not change it?
Zhang Yang is not an Arsenal fan, but at this moment he desperately wants to change the result.
What William Gallas!
Gallas's choice of Millwall would have been his luck, not Millwall's!
Otherwise, it doesn't matter.
Barcelona sent their last man, Ronaldinho, to take the last penalty.
"I bet Xiao Luo won't get in!"
Zhang Yang stood up after speaking, turned his head to look at the court, and immediately gave Arsenal goalkeeper Almunia a 'lucky blessing', and then when Xiao Luo made a free throw, he used 'words and words'.
"Don't enter!"
A low shout rang out, which immediately affected Ronaldinho, who was shooting.
Ronaldinho was incredibly confident, but he became less confident at the moment of swinging his foot, and he found that he could not hit the goal accurately no matter what.
"What's going on?"
Ronaldinho was a bit of a trance, but kicked the ball out anyway.
The ball is not fast and the angle is not tricky enough.
It was definitely a very substandard shot for Ronaldonho, but the penalty was very easy to score because the goalkeeper would have made a prediction in advance, and if Almunia misjudged, the ball would have gone into the net.
Almunia, the right judgment was made!
At the moment when Ronaldonho swung his foot, Almunia had already pounced in one direction, and when the football rolled over, Almunia landed early, but accurately blocked the route with his chest.
"The ball didn't go in!"
The Arsenal fans at the scene suddenly shouted wildly!
"The aftermath of the catastrophe! Xiao Luo made a mistake! Lineker also shouted, as if it didn't matter if the bet was lost to Zhang Yang, because the game really came to a climax.
"After five rounds of penalties, the two teams are still tied! According to the rules of the penalty shootout, a draw in the first stage will enter a brutal death mode, and if that side makes a mistake, the opponent will win directly! β
The second stage of the penalty shootout is the really brutal stage, the second stage is also called 'death mode', it is a tiebreaker system, once one side scores a penalty and the other team misses, then the side that scores the penalty wins, and the game is over.
Everyone became extremely nervous.
The first to play were the Arsenal players, with Gilberto representing Arsenal.
The players who are playing now will undoubtedly be under tremendous pressure, and it only takes one mistake to decide the Champions League, and the pressure is unimaginable.
Maybe the players don't think about the trophy, they think about not making mistakes, because mistakes will become the sinners of the team, and then the fans will say, "It's because of so-and-so's mistake that we didn't get the Champions League trophy." β
Arsenal have never won the Champions League in their history, and this is a trophy that will go down in history.
The pressure Gilberto will be under can be imagined.
But Gilberto withstood the pressure!
In the face of ValdΓ©s' 'intimidating' bouncing, Gilberto prepared a kick to send the ball into the right side of the goal.
"The ball is in! The pressure is back to Barcelona! β
Barcelona fielded centre-back Puyol, and the Arsenal fans began to chant incessantly, and they wanted to influence Puyol with their shouting.
"This goal can't go in! Arsenal will win! β
Zhang Yang's words are sharp.
He not only judged with 'foresight', but also had confidence in Arsenal goalkeeper Almunia, the second goalkeeper is always difficult to remember the name, but the effect of the 'lucky bonus' just now has not disappeared, and Almunia has a 'tenfold' lucky bonus.
Ten times as much!
Since Zhang Yang has the ability of 'Lucky Blessing', he has not increased it tenfold.
Almunia couldn't be luckier!
Almunia's luck was also fully exploited, and in the face of Puyol's powerful volley, Almunia did not react and did not move to block the ball.
"Puyolβ"
"The ball didn't go in! The ball didn't go in! The football was blocked by Almunia with his belly! My God! β
"Almunia! Almunia! β
"Arsenal! Arsenal! β
"Congratulations to Arsenal! Congratulations! Arsenal beat Barcelona on penalties and played with 10 men for most of the game, but they won the 2005-2006 Champions League with a miraculous victory! β
