Chapter 138: Shocking Moscow
There wasn't enough time on the field to make the players sigh after every mistake, and CSKA Moscow apparently didn't give He Xu a chance to be upset.
Because CSKA Moscow wanted to take this opportunity to launch this wave of offensive, Gabrov, who was frightened by He Xu's kick just now, quickly threw the ball, and in order to be able to move forward faster, he chose to throw the ball to the middle. This time, it may be seen that he was really frightened, the ball slipped in his hand, and he threw it directly at He Xu's feet......
He Xu, who was still immersed in the regret just now, finally tasted the pie that fell from the sky, although he was also stunned when the ball fell at his feet. But as a striker who relies on reaction and speed to eat, He Xu made a second reaction almost instantly, a decisive right-footed volley!
This time, He Xu, who used his habitual foot, didn't give Gabrov a chance to send the football, and the football grazed the middle of the crossbar and drilled into the goal! He Xu only realized after he scored the goal, huh? This is the sixteenth!
The Inter Milan fans, who had just been at the bottom, went from hell to heaven in an instant, and happiness always came so unexpected and touching, and they shouted almost in unison as the football went under the crossbar and hit the net and bounced into the goal. Goaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal! Ho-Xu-"
He Xu was a little surprised after the goal, he didn't expect this group of fans to be able to pronounce the pronunciation of his name so clearly. He ran under the stands where the visiting fans were sitting. Raise your hands in the air and pose in a heart shape.
Then Sneijder, Alvarez and Coutinho all ran over and surrounded He Xu in the middle. Gaburov, who only flicked his hands symbolically, failed to make up for his mistakes, stayed there.
Zhang Jun and Wang Tao in the live broadcast room were still regretting the good opportunity He Xu missed, but who would have thought that Gaburov would actually send an oolong assist in such a nonsensical way.
Benitez took advantage of this time to call Zanetti to his side, "Javier! I'll go back and tell them that Wesley, as well as Ricardo and Ho and Felipe, stay in front and look for an opportunity to attack me at any time, especially Ho. He must not be able to retreat. It's in the penalty area, give me a hold off them!"
Zanetti nodded in agreement, and with twenty minutes left before the end of the first half, he was able to take a two-goal lead in the first half. It's not easy for the current team.
After the celebration, the Inter players stood in their own half. Zanetti conveyed to them the coach's latest arrangement. Ho Xu, Sneijder and Coutinho all nodded in understanding. And Alvarez didn't have time to answer, he was bending over to tie his shoelaces. He Xu's goal clearly stimulated the versatile frontcourt nicknamed "Argentine Kaka". The idea of scoring goals to help the team beat their opponents has never been stronger.
CSKA Moscow kicked off again, and although they seemed to have the upper hand on the pitch with their physique and home advantage, an established powerhouse like Inter Milan is not something you can easily win with the advantage on the field. The Russian Premier League champions are also desperate to come up with something practical to beat their opponents.
is still a simple and rough long pass, although Samuel's body can no longer withstand such a hard encounter with them, but Zivo's performance is quite decent, relying on his physical strength and accurate positioning, withstanding the opponent's wave after wave of attacks.
Another breakthrough by Coutinho was brutally ended by his opponent, and the referee probably did not call a halt for a number of reasons. In fact, Benitez still doesn't know enough about He Xu's technical characteristics, He Xu's speed is very fast, and with his ball protection and skills, it is not impossible to shoot from midfield to the penalty area and then shoot. He is now leaving He Xu in the opponent's penalty area, which restricts the opponent at the same time, but also restricts He Xu's ability to break through in a wide range.
Coutinho has the Brazilian's outstanding skills, but it will be difficult to maneuver through a group of strong men.
Before the end of the first half, the score was still 2-0, and Inter Milan, who was playing away, temporarily took the lead with He Xu's two goals.
Gabrov returned to the dressing room, sitting alone in the corner without saying a word, and if he could complain to his defenders for the first goal, he could only complain about his gloves for the second.
CSKA players were silent, knowing that it would be difficult to win the game, and although it looked like they had the advantage on the pitch, they lacked a player like the opposition's No.9.
Perhaps it was from this day that some people had such an evaluation of He Xu: This is a natural finisher, no matter what his previous actions were, he had only one purpose on the court, and that was to finish the opponent.
At this time, the Terminators were still questioning the coach's tactics in the locker room. He Xu took advantage of the fact that everyone was resting and found the coach alone.
"Mr. Coach, can you let me pull back in the second half? I've been in the box and I'm always waiting for my team-mates to pass the ball. But our midfielders are too thin compared to those big Russian guys, and it is very easy to lose goals in the confrontation, so it will be very dangerous to continue. ”
Benitez shook his head, "He, your current effect is no longer a goal, you scored two goals in this game, those guys in CSKA will definitely guard you in the second half, now what you need to do is to contain." Contain their defence in attack, help their team-mates find opportunities, contain their defenders in attack, and watch out for them pressing up for headers or sudden back-of-the-road shots. It's good to contain your opponent! Attack or something, leave it to the others. ”
He Xu didn't speak, just nodded, but in fact, he was very unhappy in his heart. I'm a striker, and my job on the pitch is to score goals, and now you're not letting me get the ball, so what else can I do? Contain? Even if I held back the opponent, my teammates wouldn't have been able to score.
He Xu thought so and didn't say anything. It's just that he's always been very assertive, and he's actually not ready to listen to the coach and help them contain the opponent? Let's wait until they can score!
"In the first half, Chinese player He Xu scored two goals to give Inter Milan the lead, which is obviously what many fans want to see. With the landing of the giants in the top league, we can see that He Xu's influence in China seems to be much greater. Of course, these Chinese players who are now playing in foreign clubs seem to be doing very well. ”
Zhang Jun in the studio was saying this, and in a Champions League group stage at the same time, Arsenal scored a wonderful goal at the beginning of the second half. The scorer was their central defender Chen Boyan, and the assist was the thief, Tang Lintian.
Inter Milan and CSKA had just entered at this time, and when He Xu met Gabrov, he didn't forget to arch his hand to him to thank him for his wonderful hand throwing ball assist, Gabrov wanted to go up and give this kid a punch, but reason still made him resist this impulse.
The second half of the game became boring, although the two teams had their own offense and defense, but there was no substantial breakthrough and progress. Just when many Chinese fans were about to turn off the TV and go to bed, He Xu, who had been entangled with the group of big men in the opponent's penalty area, suddenly withdrew from the penalty area and retreated to almost the middle circle.
Zanetti finished Zagoev's attack with a decisive tackle, and Zanetti fell to the ground and toed the ball to Sneijder's feet with a touch of his toes.
The midfielder, whose hair was getting thinner, turned his head to see He Xu shaking his hand at him, and he passed the ball almost without hesitation, completely forgetting that this didn't seem to be in the range of attack He Xu usually showed.
When He Xu stopped the ball with his foot, he quickly turned around with the ball as the axis. As soon as he turned around, he saw that there was already an additional Moscow player standing there. He Xu shook his shoulders, resolutely knocked the ball forward, and rushed hard. Because his starting speed is extremely fast, and big players generally turn slowly, this guy who wanted to get stuck with He Xu was passed by him in one step.
He Xu didn't have time to breathe, and a CSKA defender pounced on him, this time He Xu stepped on the ball, and when he pounced in front of him, He Xu stepped down and squeezed the ball up, He Xu lightly picked it on his toes, and the ball just flew over the head of the defender.
After passing this second person, taking advantage of the disconnection in the defense, He Xu strode the ball forward. It looked like a bit of a long way off, and it was this opportunity that the long-standing midfielder Oliseh was waiting for, and he slid down to the ground for the ball.
Unexpectedly, He Xu's movements were faster than him, and he stretched out his foot to pull the ball back during the run, and then on the heel behind him, his feet clamped the ball, his calf hooked to the side, and the ball flew over Oliseh who was tackling the ball.
At this time, the CSKA Stadium was boiling, even if there was no goal, it would not be in vain to see such a wonderful consecutive pass.
In the minds of some CSKA Moscow pseudo-fans, the best outcome of this attack should be like this, He Xu passed all the defenses, faced the empty goal, and knocked the ball away.
Still moving forward, He Xu had already reached a distance of thirty meters from the goal, and the fourth defender was left behind by He Xu's witty Marseille roundabout...... (To be continued......)
