No. 579: Adidas in action!
After the restart, the Uruguayan players could not recover from the shock, and the Dutch team quickly made a steal of the football before launching a quick counter-attack.
In the second minute of stoppage time, De Zeou made a direct pass, and after Robben took the ball, he used his speed to leave the Uruguayan full-back behind, and he wanted to score twice!
Before hitting the opponent's penalty area, Robben suddenly cut inside, and then volleyed with his left foot!
The ball arcs in the air and flies past the fingertips of Uruguayan goalkeeper Muslera and straight to the left post of the goal!
Once again, the Green Dot was silent, could the Netherlands score twice at the end of the first half?
Between the flashes of lightning, the football flew out of the bottom line against the post, and Robben missed a good chance to score!
The game restarted, Uruguay finally recovered from the roar of coach Tabarez and launched an attack on the Netherlands, with Vittorino sending a long ball straight and the ball flew into the heart of the Netherlands.
Van Bommel and Forlan leaped high at the same time.
In the scramble for a header, Van Bommel struck Forlan with his left hand in the face, and Forlan fell to the ground.
"Tick! ……”
The referee awarded Uruguay a well-placed direct free-kick up front.
As the Dutch team lined up the wall, Forlan was pulled up by a team-mate and he had to take the free-kick himself.
ESPN said: "Forlan scored a beautiful free-kick in this position last round to open up for Uruguay, can he now take advantage of that opportunity to help Uruguay equalise again? ”
"Tick! ……”
The referee blew the whistle and Forlan slowly ran towards the football, and the Dutch fans booed loudly as they wanted to interfere.
"Smack! ……”
The ball flew up from the inside of Fran's right foot, then went around the wall and headed towards the right side of the goal!
The pitch was tense again.
Dutch goalkeeper Stekelenburg jumped to his feet and pushed with his left hand, allowing the ball to change direction and fly off the line.
"Beautiful!"
Adal, the commentator on Dutch national television, shouted: "This is a beautiful save!" ”
Uruguay immediately sent a corner into the Dutch penalty area, and Dutch goalkeeper Stekelenberg jumped high and punched the football out of the box!
Outside the box, Gagarno was about to step forward to get the ball, only to find a figure flying like lightning to his left.
Old?!!!
He was shocked in his heart, and immediately remembered the scene that appeared a few minutes ago, so he stretched out his left hand and grabbed Chen Fan's jersey tightly.
Chen Fan struggled a few times and couldn't break free, so he had to stop.
The referee blew the whistle in time to award a free kick to the Netherlands and showed a yellow card to Gagarno.
ESPN exclaimed: "It seems that Chen has killed the Uruguayan players in shock, Gagano did not give Chen a chance to take the ball at all, and in order to prevent him from taking the ball, he took a tactical foul." ”
In stoppage time for the rest of the first half, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half.
The ESPN commentator exclaimed: "The first half is over, the Netherlands are 2-1 up, Chen completed a world-shattering goal before the end of the first half, this goal is worth remembering for a lifetime!" ”
The players from both sides walked off the pitch to the dressing room amid the applause of the fans, the Dutch players looked relaxed, the Uruguayan players had serious and dignified faces, the opponents were too strong, and the damn little guy was amazing......
With the departure of the players on both sides, the stands should have been quiet to rest, but the Dutch fans couldn't be quiet, and Chen Fan's goal brought them too much to talk about.
……
At this moment, the general manager's office at the headquarters of Adidas was quite busy, and the general manager gave a death order to the South African staff to meet Chen Fan at halftime.
Be sure to get the sneakers that Chen Fan wore in this game!
After the match against Slovakia, they remembered to take something from Chen Fan to keep a souvenir, but when they met Chen Fan in the locker room, Chen Fan only had a pair of underwear left.
As for the shoe in Chen Fan's hand, he was unwilling to hand it over to the staff of Adidas, he wanted to keep it for himself.
……
Outside the turf on the east side of Green Point Field, a caddie was tending to the soccer ball under his feet like a baby, and a reporter came up to him and whispered, "Give me this soccer ball, and I'll give you a hundred dollars." ”
The caddie shook his head and did not speak, and even held the football in his arms.
A shortly after that a staff member came over, whispered a few words in the caddy's ear, and then took the ball from his hand.
This was the envy of nearby journalists.
Tears flowed from the caddy's eyes, as if someone had snatched his cherished treasure from him.
The staff member walked back after a few steps and whispered in his ear, "I'll find a way to give you a jersey signed by Chen." ”
The caddy burst into tears and laughed.
The staff patted him lightly on the head before leaving again and handing the football to the Adidas staff in the players' tunnel: "This is the football where Chen scored the goal." ”
The Adidas staff solemnly took the football, immediately packed it in a metal box, and locked it.
After doing all this, he breathed a sigh of relief and stretched out his hand to shake the stadium staff: "Thank you very much, I thank you on behalf of Adidas!" ”
Getting the sneakers from Chen Fan is the most important task, but he is not sure whether he can get them, so he is good at asserting that he can get the football first, at least he can explain it to the headquarters.
Of course, he still has to find a way to get Chen Fan's sneakers, and that will be the most important thing.
……
In the Uruguayan dressing room, coach Tabarez exclaimed: "The Netherlands are really strong, but they are not without weaknesses, their defence is not impregnable, so we have to be confident!" ”
Chen Fan's goal hit Uruguay's morale hard, and the first thing the old coach Tabares has to solve now is morale.
"It's normal for a player like Chen to be unstoppable and we can't be frustrated. And there was an element of luck to his goal, if Muslera had been a little more powerful on his fingers, the ball would have flown straight off the crossbar. ”
Uruguayan goalkeeper Muslera's eyelids jumped twice, Forlan took a deep breath, who said no, if Muslera reacted a little faster, the ball would definitely fly out, and if Victoria had more power on his shoulder, Chen would not even be able to complete the shot......
Godin said in a deep voice: "The coach is right, we must have a way to contain him!" ”
He looked up at his teammates and said loudly, "Brothers! No matter how strong the opponent is or how difficult the game is, as long as the whistle doesn't blow at the end of the match, we have a chance! ”
The teammates listened to his words and exhaled the turbid air between their lungs and intestines, who said that it was not the case, as long as the whistle did not sound at the end of the game, everyone had a chance......
The frustration in the Uruguayan dressing room slowly faded and was replaced by a strong fighting spirit!
In the Dutch dressing room, Van Marwijk said in a deep voice after the praise: "Uruguay will definitely strengthen their attack in the second half, we have to focus more on defence. ”
"As for the offense...... We have to take every opportunity to play a quick counter-attack, and once we have the ball at the back, we have to find a way to make long passes! ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Snead and Chen Fan.
Chen Fan helplessly wiped the sweat on his face, Van Marwijk had already told him before the game that he would return to the back position in the second half to strengthen the defense.
Fortunately, he scored in the last minute of the first half, and there were fewer regrets.
The back is the back of the back, as long as it can help the team win......
