Chapter Ninety-Eight: Victory (Part II)

Cesc Fabregas, who came through La Masia's youth system, has a delicate technique and a wide vision, and he is enough to shoulder the team's organisation after Xavi's departure, and more importantly, because he has been playing in the Premier League for many years, his running range and confrontation ability are also extremely good, and he can be regarded as a layer of protection for the team's defense in the midfield to organize and intercept.

And after Martinez came out, the effect was even more obvious. Perhaps in attack, Martinez can't compete with the likes of Xavi and Iniesta, but his interception ability is undoubtedly better.

His appearance is with the task of "sabotage", Busquets escorts him behind him, and he is instantly incarnated as a scavenger, covering the entire half, where there is danger, there is him, not to say much, to go up is to push and pull, to interrupt the Dutch team's attack, to disrupt the opponent's rhythm!

Under this tough defensive posture, the Dutch team's counteroffensive posture was finally contained.

Despite their anxiety, the Dutch team were firmly isolated from the danger zone, which left them both helpless and angry, and as the minutes slipped away, this sentiment turned more into despair.

"Hold on! Hold on!! Victory is at hand, and the championship will be at hand! ”

"It's only three minutes until the end of the game! We are only three minutes away from winning our first World Cup trophy in history! ”

"Champion! We are the champions!! We want to be on top of the world!! We want to accomplish ...... King of the World! ”

In the stands on all four sides of the stadium, no one was able to sit in their seats anymore, everyone was standing up, the Spanish fans were cheering, roaring, and even shouting "We are the champions".

The fans of the Dutch team were also yelling, but there was a hint of despair and pathos in their voices.

"Come on! Come on!!! ”

"Don't give up! Don't give up! ”

"Time is running out! We...... We have to attack, we have to score! ”

In the 89th minute, the Dutch team finally had a great chance to score.

In this game, the two most outstanding players of the Dutch team, Van der Vaart and Robben once again completed a wonderful pass cooperation, the former pulled the ball and turned to get rid of Busquets's pressing, and then pushed the ball diagonally forward, Robben galloped quickly, running continuous dialing, quickly approaching the big penalty area line.

Robben's personal ability is indeed outstanding, Capdevilla and Martinez's encirclement, he was dodged by him, although Martinez was ruthless even if he fouled Robben to stay, but still let the other party stumble through.

Robben had already reached the right side of the penalty line, and on the next step, he could cut inside. Or, get the ball out of the way and shoot straight away.

"Robben! Al Yang. Robben! ”

"Peter Pan opens up space, Team Spain, danger!"

Robben had already raised his feet, looking at the posture to get up on the spot and hit the door.

But the shot didn't produce after all, and a red shadow rushed over quickly, hitting Robben's body hard, and Robben fell to the ground in shock.

Only then did people see that it was the forward who fouled the defense, David. Villa!

There was no doubt that the foul was undoubtedly bad in nature, and the referee quickly ran to the place of the incident and pulled out a yellow card towards Villa.

"Villa's foul!"

"There is no doubt about it, the referee has pulled out the cards!"

"Yellow card! It's a yellow card!! If I'm not mistaken, Villa has a yellow card and another one, then ...... Red! Two yellows turned into one red, and Villa was expelled from the field! ”

When scoring the first goal of the game for the Spanish team, Villa received a yellow card because of Xingen's stripping celebration, and this time the collision foul caused him a yellow card again, two yellows turned into one red, and the outcome of being expelled from the field cannot be changed.

The referee raised the red card high, and the blood-red color made people palpitate.

"Towards the end of the regular season, Spain played one man less, will that make a difference to the outcome of the game?"

"Will the Netherlands be able to take their last chance?"

'Villa was ejected, but I would say that at the pinch, Villa's red card was worth the money! A red card for a very good chance on goal, it's worth it! ”

The commentators and stands erupted in a burst of chatter.

Villa didn't defend himself, and in doing so, he expected such an outcome, so he shook his head, then turned and walked off the field.

There was a wave of boos and shouts from the stands, and the Dutch fans gritted their teeth at Villa, who ruined Robben's goal.

Of course, in the midst of the hustle and bustle, there were cheers and applause, which were the voices of the Spanish fans, who were "executioners" in the eyes of the enemy, and in their eyes, Villa was a hero!

"Well done, David!"

Fan Bizhuang stood near the center circle, shouted to Villa from afar, and gave a thumbs up, which caused the surrounding Dutch players to stare angrily.

Fan Bizhuang didn't pay attention, and nodded at Villa: "Next, leave it to us, the champion, it belongs to us, the trophy, we have to decide!" ”

A big smile appeared on Villa's face. What is the purpose of committing a foul against the consequences of being ejected? Isn't it the ultimate victory, the ultimate champion?

Fan Bizhuang's words made his heart even more confident.

He clenched his fists and vibrated fiercely: "Champion, it's ours!" ”

Turned around, like a real hero, and walked off the field amid the applause and cheers of the fans.

"The champion is ours!"

Fan Bizhuang yelled again.

Not only him, but all the Spanish players, as well as the supporters in the stands, also raised their arms and shouted!

……

Despite the price of a red card and a player's expulsion, the crisis is not completely over.

The Netherlands were also awarded a free-kick in front, but in a slightly less favourable position.

The Dutch team did not have a super free-kick master like Van Bizhuang, who could be called "100 shots and 100 hits", and after a short discussion, the final decision was still made by Robben.

Robben's inward cut is very threatening, in the previous breakthrough, he is ready to hit the goal because he has a lot of confidence in himself, but under the obstruction of the human wall and the goalkeeper, Robben does not have much confidence in scoring directly from the free kick.

But his left-footed inside shot was already the Dutch's best bet.

After referee Webb's whistle, Robben took a deep breath, ran slowly, and then kicked his left foot to the bottom of the ball.

"Robben shoots—"

"Sure enough, it's the same arch of the foot as in the sports battle!"

"Robben's shooting ability is good, but when the opponent has already prepared, it is really unlikely that he wants to make a direct contribution...... Casillas flew to save and held the ball firmly! ”

"The Dutch team's shot on goal ended in nothing! Time is running out...... Oh, and the referee made a gesture for three minutes of stoppage time! ”

The final result was expected, in order to pursue the angle as much as possible, it lacked a chip in strength, Casillas, who had already made an accurate prediction, confiscated Robben's direct shot in his hands.

The game was in the final moments, and after the Dutch attack, the referee made a gesture for three minutes of stoppage time.

Despair once again hangs over the hearts of every Dutch player fan. Even if they play one more person on the field, the despair is still increasing.

Casillas threw the ball with his hands, and Ramos, who received the ball, did not rush forward, but unhurriedly carried the ball horizontally, only to transfer the ball to his team-mate's feet before Huntelaar could press it.

At this time, there is little point in moving forward, the most important thing is to control the ball at your feet, and every time you spend a little more time, you will be one step closer to the final championship trophy!

Continuous inverted feet, continuous passing, although the Dutch team's pressing posture is very fierce, the Spanish team's passing is orderly, unhurried, quite a bit of a "monkey walking" feeling in weekday training.

This feeling made the Dutch team more aggrieved and anxious, but helpless.

They are also well aware that the championship trophy is getting farther and farther away from them as time goes by.

But the game is not over after all, even if it is only a little time, for them, it is the only light in the abyss.

But obviously, this light could not save them, and in the 92nd minute, a sudden forward pass from the Spanish team completely kicked the Dutch team into the abyss of defeat.

After a succession of quick inverted foot passes, the ball fell to the feet of Cesc Fabregas again, he looked at Van der Vaart, who was running forward to press, and then at the figure who was sprinting forward along the wing, hesitated, and drove the ball forward with a big foot.

The football accurately fell in front of Fan Bizhuang, and Fan Bizhuang easily unloaded the football, and in the case of a large open field in front of him, he killed all the way to near the bottom line.

There is a saying in the world of football that if you want to stall for time, take the ball to the corner flagstick.

At this moment, Fan Bizhuang did just that, in the case of no receivers in the front court, Fan Bizhuang did not blindly choose to attack, but brought the ball to the corner flagpole, the defenders of the Dutch team forced up, Fan Bizhuang was stunned with his body and flexible feet, put the ball under his control, let Heitinga and Van Bronckhorst push and hook their feet, just don't lose the ball!

The three of them were entangled back and forth in the small space, but suddenly, the scene erupted in bursts of screams again.

on the field.

In the chaos, Fan Bizhuang completed the turn, and the ball came out of the bag of the two defenders.

Heitinga and Van Bronckhorst were left behind, and Van Bizhuang looked up to look at the box, then swept his long legs and the ball pressed against the ground and jumped into the box at breakneck speed.
