Originally, everyone thought that even if Hoffenheim dragged the game into a penalty shootout, the result of the game would have been decided a long time ago. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Info Valdés is at a better level than Daniel. Haas is more than one notch, and Barcelona's players are certainly more mentally fit than Hoffenheim. So the penalty shootout was just a matter of making Hoffenheim lose the game with dignity.

But now it's different, after watching the wonderful performance of Chu Zhongtian, the temporary goalkeeper, in the last few minutes of the game, everyone has a new understanding and expectation of the penalty shootout. They all wanted to see how magical Chu Zhongtian could be...... The performance in the game is already amazing, but what about saving a penalty?

The German commentator joked: "Maybe when Enyema is punished, he will directly let Chu be the goalkeeper, maybe Hoffenheim will not fall behind!" Ha ha! ”

He Ping's mood was also very good, seeing Chu Zhongtian's performance like this, he, the Chinese commentator, felt that his face was bright.

The managers of both sides are arranging the penalty sequence. The players sat around him and took the time to get a massage and rest.

But it was clear from the faces of the players on both teams that they were not in the same mood at this time. Barcelona's players were a little listless, and the last few minutes of the game were too big for them - they thought they could score no matter what they said, but no matter how inevitable the goal was, it would eventually be saved by Chu Zhongtian, which was completely beyond their imagination!

Some people even feel that Chu Zhongtian was possessed by God in this game.

When Pep Guardiola arranged the penalty line, everyone sat next to them, bowing their heads and saying nothing.

On the Hoffenheim side, it's a different story entirely.

Everyone happily discussed Chu Zhongtian's performance just now.

"Hey! Clear! I can't believe it...... How did you do that ball? ”

"I'm confident in the penalty shoot-out right now, aha! Because we have Chu! ”

"To be honest, I gave up on that ball...... I really didn't expect Chu to be able to rescue him! It's amazing! ”

"I thought I was dreaming, it's incredible!"

Everyone praised Chu Zhongtian, but Chu Zhongtian looked calm, after all, the game is not over yet, and now is not the time to be happy.

Rangnick walked up to Chu Zhongtian and squatted down and patted him on the shoulder. "You're really surprising me, Chu."

Chu Zhongtian raised his head and looked at Rangnick: "I used to be a goalkeeper, but I didn't expect that I still remembered how to guard the goal." ”

Rangnick smiled: "How about you save a penalty?" ”

Chu Zhongtian shook his head: "I don't know about this, I have to try to find out." ”

"Ha, I believe in you. I also want to ask you, you were in the five-man squad, now that you are the goalkeeper, do you still want to take a penalty? ”

"Yes." Chu Zhongtian's answer was concise and to the point.

Rangnick nodded and wrote Chu Zhongtian's name.

In fact, before the penalty shootout, there are really few things that the head coach can do, that is, arrange the penalty sequence, and the specific work arrangement is the goalkeeper coach's business.

Rangnick left after goalkeeper coach Cesar. Thiel walked up.

"You're really surprising me, Chu." Thill shook his head.

Chu Zhongtian smiled.

"Do you know, after watching your game for a few minutes, I found that in fact, you are more suitable as a goalkeeper, if you are a goalkeeper, you must be the world's No. 1 goalkeeper now, and Buffon and Casillas are completely on the same level!" Til praised Chu Zhongtian vigorously. A few minutes before the end of the game, Chu Zhongtian's performance really caused a big shock to him.

"You're hiding so deeply!"

Chu Zhongtian smiled: "I still like to play in the midfield, Cesar." ”

"Hmm...... I think so. "Cesar. Thiel shrugged. "Well, we have all seen the characteristics of the Barcelona players taking penalties on video. The main thing is to stay calm and if you have made a judgment, do not hesitate to pounce on it! It doesn't matter if it's in the wrong direction, don't hesitate, hesitation will give your opponent a chance to take advantage of! ”

Chu Zhongtian nodded.

Thiel thought about it, and it seemed that there was nothing more to say. He doesn't need to comfort Chu Zhongtian, he doesn't need to relieve pressure, and he doesn't need to encourage Chu Zhongtian, with his understanding of this player, Chu Zhongtian's heart is like a rock, his heart is very strong, and he doesn't seem to have seen him play abnormally in the big scene. He's made for the big scene!

The preparation time passed quickly, and the penalty lists of both sides had been reported, and after verification, the referee signaled the players of both sides to concentrate and prepare to take the penalty.

The penalty kick is preceded by a small "coin guessing ceremony", which is a way to choose which team will play first and which team will play later.

Chu Zhongtian deliberately won the right to kick first, so that he could throw all the pressure on Barcelona.

After guessing the coin, Valdés went to the goal to prepare first, while Chu Zhongtian retreated to the outside of the penalty area and waited.

"The penalty shootout is about to begin!"

"Audience friends! In the 2010-2011 Champions League final, the penalty shootout was held. Who will win this season's Champions League will be revealed soon! ”

"It looks like Hoffenheim took the penalty first...... The first one they played was ......"

Players from both sides gathered on the halfway line, with the Barcelona players clasping their hands in a line, Hoffenheim didn't do that, they just stood in a heap, nervously watching in the direction of the goal.

The first person to step up to take the penalty was Hoffenheim's number one set-piece player Salihovic. Originally, he was the number one penalty taker in the team, and he was placed in the first place to boost morale and stabilize people's hearts. It's better for such a sure person to go up and punish than to find someone randomly, right?

The first penalty in a penalty shoot-out is crucial and must be played by the best shooter. Chu Zhongtian was ranked third, and the last to press the formation was the experienced and mentally excellent Dutch shooter Van Nistelrooy.

※※※ "Penalty ...... Penalty kick...... Penalty ......" Jackson in the stands was a little nervous, he put his hands to his mouth and muttered.

He is not the only one who is nervous, many fans are nervous. In general, when a football match goes to a penalty shootout, it is impossible not to be nervous.

Whether it's Hoffenheim or Barcelona fans, they are a little nervous at this time.

Salihovic finally reached the penalty spot, and the distance of a few dozen meters looked so long. He set the ball up, stepped out of the way, and was ready to shoot.

The referee stepped aside and blew his whistle to signal that Salihovic was ready to shoot.

Bosnia-Herzegovina midfielder runs, kicks up!

The ball flew to the left side of the goal.

Valdés was right, but Salihovic's kick was tricky, and he couldn't save even if he was right.

"Beautiful! Neat! The ball is in!! ”

The German commentator chanted.

The Catalan commentator hugged his head and said regretfully: "Oops! The direction was right, but they couldn't pounce...... It's a pity, it's a pity! ”

Valdés got up from the ground and shook his head. He wasn't frustrated, he was confident in his performance, and if he continued like this, it would put a lot of psychological pressure on the Hoffenheim players, so that the opponent would mess up and save the penalty when the time came.

Valdés walked to the other side of the penalty area and did not meet Chu Zhongtian. Chu Zhongtian walked in when he left the goal.

Then he stood in front of the goal, waved his arms outstretched, and looked like a real goalkeeper.

“…… It was perhaps the first time in the history of a Champions League final that a makeshift amateur goalkeeper played a penalty shoot-out...... If it were an ordinary person, the result of this decisive battle would have been decided a long time ago, but now it is Chu who is standing in front of the goal! Many Hoffenheim fans must be confident in his performance! ”

"Chu Zhongtian has appeared!" He Ping shouted.

Valdés walked out of the penalty area and looked at Chu Zhongtian who was standing in front of the door waving his arms. He was also able to see the performance in the minutes before the end of the game. He felt that Chu Zhongtian was actually more flexible and agile, and he had the spirit of not giving up, so he was able to complete that miraculous save. But penalty kicks are not the same as in sports, saving a penalty requires solid basic skills and excellent jade plate ability.

These things, Valdes didn't believe that Chu Zhongtian could have. How good can a temporary goalkeeper be? At most, it is just to watch the goalkeeper training in the usual training and understand the basic movements.

He retreated to the outside of the box and waited for his team's first ball to fly into the net.

Now the score is 1-0, Hoffenheim is temporarily ahead, but Barcelona has not yet come up first.

※※※ Barcelona's first appearance was also against the number one penalty taker - Lionel Messi.

It seems that both sides have put the strongest penalty taker first, and they are bound to get off to the start.

Messi slowly walked in front of the football with his head down and began to lean over to place the football.

Chu Zhongtian lowered his arm and stopped any movement, he just stared at Messi.

This pair of opponents competed for the whole game in the game, and they won and lost each other, even if Chu Zhongtian changed his role, they still stumbled. Now, it's happened again.

Defeating Messi and winning this game is Chu Zhongtian's pursuit in this game. Now he has a new way to beat Messi, and that is to save Messi's penalty kick!

Messi set up the football, raised his head, and recoiled to run.

The fans in the stands also fell silent.

Now the whole world is waiting for the referee's whistle.

This was Chu Zhongtian's first appearance in the penalty shootout.

Cornelia clenched her fists tightly, her fingernails digging into her flesh, and she didn't feel any pain at all.

Fritz. Abel covered his face with his hands, his eyes peeking out between his fingers.

Rangnick stood on the sidelines, seemingly calm, but in fact his body was trembling slightly.

"It's ...... Chu Zhongtian's first appearance......" He Ping's voice was trembling, he was both excited and nervous.

Everyone was nervous and excited, but Chu Zhongtian was very calm from the inside out.

His eyes were fixed on Messi, and his ears heard the referee's whistle - "Toot! ”

At the moment when Messi was running, the image of Messi shooting the football to the right side of his body suddenly appeared in Chu Zhongtian's mind, this image only lasted for a short second in his mind, and when he came to his senses, Messi just ran in front of the football!

Shot!

Almost at the same time, Chu Zhongtian pounced on the right side of his body without hesitation!

Direction is right!

At the moment when Chu Zhongtian pounced, Valdés's eyes widened outside the penalty area - his movements were decisive and agile, judging from his pounce action, he didn't look like an amateur goalkeeper who made a temporary cameo, he must have been trained as a professional goalkeeper!

Messi's shot was very tricky, and it went straight to the post.

But Chu Zhongtian didn't pounce directly horizontally, he pounced outward, which suddenly shortened the distance between himself and the football and expanded the angle at which he could defend.

As the ball flew by, the tips of his fingers touched the ball.

Just one moment, that's enough!

"Messi shoots - Chu!! Oh! Oh!! Clear! He pounced! Incredible! Incredible! ”

The football was rubbed by Chu Zhongtian, slightly out of the goal, and flew directly to the billboard behind the goal. And after Chu Zhongtian fell to the ground, he rolled up from the ground, and he waved his fist at Messi and roared.

The Hoffenheim fans in the stands were all ignited by his miraculous save and they shouted: "Chu-!! ”

Valdés looked at Chu Zhongtian in disbelief.

Messi held his head in his hands, and his eyes and mouth were wide open.

"Oh...... Messi's ball was saved by Chu Zhongtian!! He Ping jumped up from his seat with a fist. We've been waiting for this moment! This is the moment! ”

The entire Wembley Stadium was filled with the sound of cheering for Chu Zhongtian. The Barcelona fans were silent.

※※※ Chu Zhongtian withdrew from the penalty area again, and it was Valdés who stood in front of the goal.

Valdés turned his head to glance at Chu Zhongtian. The situation now is that his team is behind and he will have to save Hoffenheim's shot to save a chance for his team...... Hoffenheim's second appearance was full-back Srner.

Chu Zhongtian saved Messi's ball, which greatly boosted morale, and also made the players' originally nervous mood gradually relax. But Srna seems to have relaxed too much. The ball he shot didn't get Valdés to do, but flew straight over the crossbar!

"Shoot high! Shoot high! Srna shoots high! He shot the penalty away!! ”

The Catalan narrator happily waved his arms to explain.

The German commentator, on the other hand, held his head in his hands, not knowing what to say about the ball.

Valdés misjudged the direction, but thank God he jumped up and clenched his fist as soon as he landed.

"It's 1-0 on penalties and Hoffenheim are leading for the time being, but Barcelona's second player hasn't played yet......"

Barcelona's second player was Andres Iniesta. He set up the soccer ball and stepped back to run.

Chu Zhongtian was still standing in the center of the goal, he did not raise his hands to intimidate the opponent, nor did he jump and twist his body to interfere with the opponent.

He stared at Iniesta. At the same time, the image of Iniesta pushing the ball into the middle came to mind...... The referee's whistle sounded again, Iniesta ran up, and Chu Zhongtian's body shook to the right, as if he was going to pounce to the right, which strengthened Iniesta's idea of shooting in the middle.

Sure enough, a spoon!

Iniesta rounded his leg and did give a slight pinch when he kicked it, and the ball arced straight into the middle.

Originally, he thought that he must have deceived Chu Zhongtian with this kick, and he was waiting to celebrate the goal. When I looked up, I saw Chu Zhongtian standing in the middle without moving, stretching out his hands forward, and taking the ball he shot straight in!

"The second!! Chu Zhongtian saved Iniesta's ball! It was his second consecutive successful save! ”

"It's incredible! Even the top goalkeeper may not be able to make two consecutive saves in the penalty shootout! And the ball was saved so easily, it was like he was waiting for the football to fly over...... Iniesta directly passed the football back to Chu Zhongtian's hands! ”

Saving Messi's penalty can also be attributed to "good luck". But saving two penalties in a row was just simple luck? Thinking about Chu Zhongtian's performance in the last few minutes of overtime, how many people are stupid enough to believe that it was all just luck?

"If Hoffenheim finally wins the championship, Chu Zhongtian will definitely win the award of the best midfielder in the Champions League, but I think the award of the best goalkeeper can also be awarded to him, haha!" He Ping laughed.

※※※ "Pounced again! "There was jubilation in the stands.

The same is true in front of the TV, especially at home in China. It was already getting brighter, but no one felt sleepy, and everyone's eyes were wide open and they were engrossed in staring at the glittering TV screen.

"Great!"

"Awesome! Lin Dan is big! Awesome! ”

"Is he really a midfielder, not a goalkeeper?"

"Ding Heping! This season's Champions League best goalkeeper is Chu Zhongtian! Hahaha! ”

"How many surprises can Lin Danda give us? My face is numb with laughter......"

"Unbelievable! Is what I'm seeing real? I'm not dreaming, am I? Is all this true? Chu Zhongtian really saved two penalties from Barcelona in a row? ”

"Is this ball Andres Iniesta a return pass? Infernal Affairs! ”

"Holy, what kind of penalty is this? The punishment is weak and weak! ”

"Upstairs, don't talk nonsense if you don't know the ball! This is Chu Zhongtian's good position and accurate judgment, the quality of Xiaobai's kick is already very high, if Chu Zhongtian pounces in other directions, it will be a wonderful spoon hanging shot! ”
