Chapter 18: Miraculous Rescue
After leading by three goals, Karlsruhe's players relaxed more and more, and they played better in a relaxed mentality, although Hoffenheim sent four strikers, but in the case of Federico and others to defend together, they were watched so hard that they could hardly even find a chance to shoot.
Karlsruhe has no possibility of defeat now, and the counterattack will no longer invest personnel, Hoffenheim's attack is more unscrupulous, unusually fast and unusually threatening, but it seems so weak in front of Wu Feng.
In the 75th minute, Wu Feng kicked Olhoff's bocce ball out of the goal, and Hoffenheim's quick counterattack failed.
In the 82nd minute, they made a comeback, although Wu Feng was not tall enough, but he jumped very strongly, jumped high and easily picked off Hoffenheim's young Bam's header, Hoffenheim's corner kick tactics failed.
In the 89th minute, Stoll accidentally pulled down Betani Gao in the penalty area, penalty!
The atmosphere was at its climax, with thousands of Hoffenheim fans shouting wildly from the stands, expecting the team to pull a goal back from the penalty.
But they were too early to rejoice, and in the face of Mattia's quick penalty from 12 yards, Wu Feng made a vigorous pounce and easily pounced on the football in his arms, and Hoffenheim failed to take the penalty.
After this penalty loss, Hoffenheim's morale dropped to its lowest point, and the game was about to end, and they had no chance of winning.
In stoppage time, Hoffenheim won a free-kick from 27 yards out, which was an excellent position, and for Hoffenheim, it was the last chance to save face, and even their goalkeeper had arrived in Karlsruhe's half, ready to make a last-ditch fight, so that Wu Feng couldn't help but admire the tenacity of this team.
Flick's free-kick strategy is to take an indirect free-kick, which is crossed by the best passer, and then the team's header takes the ball.
After Hoffenheim's high strikers and centre-backs all entered the Karlsruhe penalty area, Cescuti delivered a high-quality curling shot.
"This set-piece, Hoffenheim took the penalty at a very good level. The arc is low and flat, just enough to go around the human wall in Karlsruhe, and the speed is very fast. Near the point where the ball landed, we saw that the two strikers of Olhoff and Bertagani were already ready to attack. This set-piece will be a test for Karlsruhe's defence. ”
"In fact, if the goalkeeper chooses to attack at this time, he should have a certain certainty of knocking the football out of the box. But we saw that our patron saint, Wu, was still standing firmly near the goal line, with no intention of attacking. Jemaises was still working hard to explain to the fans.
"We saw a Karlsruhe player rushing up quickly. Jump! It was our young youngster Eichner, who grabbed the first spot! ”
"Oh, no! Danger, Eichner actually put the ball at his own goal! Own goal! Will it be an own goal? ”
Depressed!
Wu Feng was originally not tall enough, and seeing so many people crowded in the penalty area was also a kind of pressure on him, and he couldn't see the movements of Cescutti who took the penalty at all, so he simply stood in a more convenient place to observe, and braked statically to respond to all changes.
Teammate Eichner grabbed the landing point, and Wu Feng thought he would clear the opponent's attack.
But he never thought that after a physical confrontation with the opponent's striker Olhoff, Eichner actually did not grasp the part of the touch, and actually pushed the football towards his own door, and actually formed a header in the small penalty area!
Looking at the football that flew quickly to the other side, Wu Feng didn't have any extra time to think about how to save, and he didn't even have time to run, Wu Feng could only seize the first time, jump to the right with all his strength on the spot, and make a cool martial arts move in the air, volley whirlwind legs, to intercept this dangerous header goal.
"Bang!" It should be said that Wu Feng's luck is good! Although the incident happened suddenly, he had a good choice of position before, and Wu Feng, who was taking off in the air, finally touched the football with his foot.
After the ball touched Wu Feng's foot, it immediately changed direction, slammed heavily on the crossbar, rebounded and fell.
"Oooh, this is a perfect save from our Patronus Warriors! Wu once again used his incredible reflexes to block the ball out, which should have been an own goal that was bound to be scored! ”
"Oh, danger! After hitting the crossbar, the football fell back into the penalty area in Karlsruhe, and the red alert was still not lifted! ”
Captain Stoll rushed to the ball spot, but he couldn't control the ball, and Hoffenheim's youngster Bam grabbed the ball!
However, under Stoll's block, Bam could not shoot directly on goal, and he chose to pass the football to his teammate Betanigao.
"Betany got the ball! Will he be able to shoot a football into the goalkeepers? Oh, Betany falls high and strafes! The ball flew towards the goal. ”
"I'll rub!"
The place where Betany got the ball was near the small penalty area, and at this time, Wu Feng hadn't gotten up yet!
"It's too late!"
This shot was too close, Wu Feng had no time to get up to save, so he could only subconsciously fall to the ground with his upper body forward, and then support the ground with both hands, just like doing push-ups, but his legs were hanging in the air.
Doing his best to obey the fate of God and make the last effort is just that, Wu Feng doesn't want his goal to come in the warm-up game.
"Bang!" Wu Feng's feet were violently hit by footballs, and then a crisp sound came from the goal post.
"Bell!" After the football was blocked by Wu Feng's dangling feet again, it rebounded and hit the outside of the goalpost, and then flew straight out of the bottom line!
"Wow! It's so exciting! It's incredible! In just one minute, our Ng made two great saves! Especially the second save, which is definitely a rare world-class save! It was a save that will go down in history in our German league, I've never seen a save like it. Our new patron saint, Woo! Cheer together, Woo! Five! Five! ”
The fans in the stadium shouted frantically, and even the Hoffenheim fans were shocked by Wu Feng's save just now, and shouted together, when a voice sounded neatly on the field of Wilder Park: "Wu! Five! Five! ”
Wu Feng, who was originally about to continue to defend the last corner kick attack, was also startled by the neat shouting of more than 20,000 fans at this time, and heard that they were all calling their surnames, so he knew that he had conquered these fans, and he couldn't help but be moved in his heart, smiling and bowing around to thank him.
