Chapter 178: Shoveling
At such a point, just get a yellow card! As long as you can block Kenny, then it's all worth it!
But how could the breakthrough that Kenny had carefully prepared be so simple! It is true that Kenny's real breakthrough direction is on the right, but it is not only that!
The next scene he saw made Neville's expression fall into ashes, it turned out that Kenny did not disappoint Neville after his right foot tossed the ball inward to complete the body jump, he touched the ball with the instep of his right foot again, but only lightly touched, just like this "poof~" for a while
"What!?" At this time, Neville was almost desperate, this Kenny even had a queen! At the moment, he could only stretch out his twin legs, which wanted to support his body when he landed, and pulled towards the corner of Kenny's clothes, hoping to stop Kenny here.
At this time, their own safety is no longer important, and the pride of the Red Devils is greater than anything else!
But Kenny's next move frustrated him again, only to see Kenny's right foot suddenly retreat behind his left foot after touching the ball lightly, and at that moment his body also bowed backwards to avoid Neville's groping pig in a millimeter! Even such a set of difficult movements did not make Kenny's movements unsmooth in any way, but the last action that followed completed the most beautiful end to this smooth performance.
He turned his right foot to his left foot and slammed it into the ball, and everyone saw Kenny rush out after avoiding Neville's pull and complete the breakthrough!
"Is this a cross thread?" Unlike Kenny's previous genius, this time after Kenny's breakthrough, most of the commentators did not immediately let out various Sistic roars, but asked themselves with some hesitation and disbelief.
Because they couldn't believe that such a difficult feint could occur in such a fierce game, this is not a roadside field! This is the Champions League, it's a knockout round! And Keni is facing Manchester United's main full-back, Gary Neville!
Looking at the garlic sprouts today, for the sake of such hardship and hardship, everyone will give some recommendation votes, give some monthly passes, and give some rewards~~~~

Chapter 209: Yellow Card
In such a fierce game, Keni not only used the difficult maneuver of the cross needle, but also really did it, he passed Gary Neville and broke into the edge of the Manchester United penalty area with his own strength!
"Loris, you're so handsome!" "Chong, Loris Chong!" "This is Bayer Leverkusen!!!"
Seeing Kenny's brave play, the Leverkusen fans at the scene almost suffocated with excitement, and even the Leverkusen fans who were guarding the TV in Germany were shouting excitedly. On the other hand, the iron face of Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson on the sidelines was no longer willing to chew on the bitter and tasteless gum, and he shouted loudly to his disciples, he could not allow such a visiting player to run rampant at Old Trafford!
The rest of the Manchester United players also heard Ferguson's angry scolding, and they almost gritted their teeth and rushed towards Kenny, because at this moment, whether their own manager was so angry or not, the pride of being a Manchester United player made them never allow Kenny to use this field as a stage for his performance.
Facing Keni who had already stepped over the edge of the penalty area, the first to bear the brunt of the Stam was a fierce tackle without giving Kenny any chances, with the experience of the European Cup and the experience of two teammates, Stam had already made up his mind the moment he rushed out and would rather foul Kenny than stop Kenny!
Manchester United defender Brown stuck Kielsten's receiving route, and it can be seen that Brown also has a lot of experience in defending a high striker like Kirsten! However, if you want to stop Leverkusen's attack, it is too simple! You must know that at this moment they are facing Kenny who is breaking through with the ball! ”
"Oh? Stam rushed, what decision would he make? Without the slightest hesitation, a fierce shovel robbery! Stam cut off the ball at Kenny's feet, but Kenny fell to the ground as well! There is no doubt that this was a malicious foul and Stam deserved to be punished! ”
Sure enough, seeing that he couldn't stop Kenny who started at full speed, Stam decisively chose the penalty rule, and he broke Leverkusen's attack with a tackle! However, at this time, Kenny fell heavily to the ground after being tackled by Stam, even though Old Trafford has almost the last lawn in the world, but Stam's fierce tackle also made Kenny suffer.
The moment he was cut off by Stam and flew out, Kenny's mind was almost blank, and the pain caused him to forget the rest of his thoughts.
At this moment, Kenny fell on the lawn, his hands tightly covered his calf that had been hit, and the sharp pain hit violently from the impact location, and for a while Kenny's face was blue and sweating like rain! Seeing his teammate's situation, where did the Leverkusen players have time to trouble Stam, Ballack immediately beckoned the team doctor to rush up, while Neuville wiped Kenny's cold sweat and carefully helped him remove the shin guards.
At the same time, captain LaMelo and others quickly stepped forward and surrounded the referee: "Mr. referee, this is a rough foul, this is a danger to Lloris's career!" ”
"Blasphemy! This is a blasphemy against sportsmanship! Red! No, even a red card won't solve the problem! Compared to the captain LaMelo, who was still calm, Barberto, who had always been silent, roared uncharacteristically when he saw Lloris's painful appearance, as if he wanted the referee to eat it.
And the Bayer Leverkusen fans on the field were even more excited, seeing that Keni was about to score a goal, something like this happened! Now the goal is a small matter, and Kenny's safety is a big matter! For a while, angry scolding and boos came from the stands.
The referee on the field naturally suspended the game under such circumstances, he squeezed out of the players around him, and immediately signaled the stretcher on the sideline to enter the field quickly after determining Kenny's situation at this time, and then he looked back at the players on both sides around him.
"Jaap (Stam) he didn't mean it! It was an accident! ”
"He didn't mean to! No one thought it would be like this! Seeing the referee's serious expression, the United players could not say anything but a few pale words of justification, and they could not defend Stam at all, because everyone saw that it was a malicious foul.
Now they just hope that the referee will deal with it lightly, after all, it is only the first half, and if Stam is sent off at this time, it will be almost devastating for Manchester United!
However, the referee showed a yellow card to Stam from his pocket after a moment's thought, and then he pointed to the penalty spot!
In fact, he also knew that giving a red card at this time would mean that the game would almost go to a one-sided situation, except for Bayer Leverkusen, which was a situation that no one wanted to see, and as a referee, he did not need to bear such pressure. So after a little thought, he gave Manchester United a meeting, a yellow card and a penalty, and he believes that even Manchester United themselves will not have any opinion.
Sure enough, after the referee showed a yellow card and pointed to the penalty spot, the chattering Manchester United players finally accepted the result after looking at each other.
On the other side, the Bayer Leverkusen players had no choice but to stop there, because although they did not get a red card, they agreed to such a result.
However, this is when Kenny's injury is the most worrying.
Kenny was still lying on the ground at this time, but he was in much better shape than before, feeling much weaker after the first sharp pain, but even that made him break out in a cold sweat. At the moment, he is most concerned about whether he can continue to play, whether he is injured, for himself who has just played famous, Kenny does not want to start an injury career, at this moment he suddenly wants to improve his physical ability, if his body is better, maybe it will not be so painful.
Facing Kenny's inquiring and nervous gaze, the team doctor smiled at Kenny after careful examination and said, "It's okay Lloris, this is a hard injury, I will give you an ice pack to ice it will be much better, but unfortunately you can't continue the game for a while." ”
Hearing the team doctor's words, Kenny suddenly felt that the world in front of him suddenly brightened, and there was not much of a problem with hard injuries.

Chapter 210: Penalties
"It's okay, it's okay, thank goodness, thank goodness!"
After hearing the team doctor's words, the relieved Kenny didn't have time to speak, and Neuville on the side wiped the sweat from his forehead with relief, and said again and again. Looking at Neuville's appearance, Kenny felt a warm current in his heart, but then he seemed to sense something, and his face was as uncomfortable as eating. I saw that he suddenly shook off and still held him tightly Neuville said with a disgusted expression:
"Oliver! Do you think I'm your wife? It's fine, thank goodness. Do you want to add a sentence about the safety of mother and child? ”
"Haha, it's okay!" Hearing Kenny's angry complaints, Neuville was also embarrassed, just too nervous Kenny's injury made him forget his embarrassing behavior for a while, and now he finally felt relieved when he saw that Kenny was fine.
He didn't take Kenny's complaints to heart, because he knew that Kenny was just joking to divert his attention.
Seeing that at this time, Kenny and Neuville were still arguing, and the rest of the Bayer Leverkusen players finally put their minds at ease, as long as Kenny was fine, it was easy to say anything, and now the first consideration was the next penalty.
"We saw Lloris Keni being carried to the sideline on a stretcher by the medical staff and did not go directly to the break room, but applied ice to Keni on the spot, and it didn't look like Keni's injury was not very serious, which was a big boon for Bayer Leverkusen! Leverkusen's well-crafted lineup of wings did not break its wings!
At this time, Bayer Leverkusen coach Worrall, who was already very anxious, also hurriedly walked up to ask the team doctor about Kenny's injury, oh? Worrall did not make substitutions after hearing the team doctor's report, which shows that Kenny can play again! ”
At this time, all the Leverkusen fans in the stands and in front of the TV also breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that coach Worrall did not make substitutions, and Keni, who can still play and has combat effectiveness, is a very powerful weapon for Leverkusen, and they are now looking at the penalty spot with the rest of the Leverkusen players, where there is another test for Leverkusen, whether they can score a goal away from home is crucial for the two-legged Champions League knockout round.
So when Leverkusen's No. 1 S Kirsten walked to the penalty spot, everyone on the field stared with bated breath at the scene, including Kini, who got up with the help of the team doctor and regained his mobility, because he knew that the goalkeeper who was standing in front of the Manchester United goal was not an easy person to deal with.
He was Fabian Butters.
Fabian Barthes, who joined Manchester United as the European Championship runner-up goalkeeper at the beginning of this season, overtook his former goalkeeper Bosnich in a short period of time and became the absolute main force of Manchester United's goalkeeper position, and his arrival also solved the embarrassing situation of Manchester United in the goalkeeper position since Schmeichel's departure.
Butters was not only the goalkeeper of France in the '98 World Cup, but he also helped Marseille FC win the league title and the Europa League with his excellent performances in the league, which shows his strong quality. And because he often shows people with a bald head, he also has the title of the bald door god.
But even more impressive than his bald head is his penalty-taking skills, which he showed once again against Fulham this season.
When Manchester United were awarded a penalty in the game, Butters, as the goalkeeper of Manchester United, began his performance, at first he was reluctant to go to the goal range immediately, he first ran to the right side and kicked the post twice with his foot, rubbing the mud off his shoes, then ran to the left side to kick the post on that side, repeating the same action, and finally leaned there lazily, and waved to signal that the door was not guarded, look at how you look.
At this time, Fulham player Malbranck, who was about to take the penalty, was only 22 years old, and he stood there at a loss for a while after seeing this posture. Although the referee of that game saw that the situation was wrong and found that Butters was deliberately playing tricks, he hurriedly rushed over to give Butters a yellow card, but Malbranck, who was already psychologically affected at that time, did not have his previous form.
When he kicked the soft S goal towards the goal, Butters, who was still listless just now, suddenly made a quick sideways pounce to block the ball from the bottom line, which couldn't help but make people stunned! It was with this save that Manchester United scored all the points in that game, leaving Arsenal who almost caught up with them behind, and Butters once again became a controversial figure in the Premier League.
One can imagine how much pressure Kirsten was under at the penalty spot at this time.
Sure enough, as Kirsten took the ball to the penalty spot and waited for the referee's whistle, Butters started his show again, first crouching down to signal that his shoelaces were not fastened. Seeing his situation, there is no way Kirsten and the referee can only stand there and wait for him to tie his shoes, but you can imagine what steps a goalkeeper needs to tie his shoes, he has to untie his own set before he can tie his shoes, and after he ties his shoes, he must put on the set again, and he can't do it alone, he also needs the help of his teammates
So after a few minutes of repeated grinding, Butters slowly stood in front of the goal, but his performance did not end there, he unexpectedly paced back and forth in the goal kick as if he didn't care about the penalty that Kirsten was about to give, this action was once again greeted by the crazy boos and abuse of the Leverkusen fans in the stands, but how could Butters, who was used to seeing big scenes, care?
He still walked back and forth as he always did, but the referee certainly wouldn't wait for him, and after seeing that Butters was still unprepared, he simply blew the whistle to signal that Kirsten was ready
