Chapter 619: A stroke of genius

Since he has made a decision in his heart, in terms of handling, as an experienced referee, Michelle knows that at this time, whether it is right or wrong, what he needs most is decisiveness.

With his hands outstretched, he made a breaststroke planing motion, slightly separated the Crystal Palace players who were almost about to pull their hands on him, and faced Montari, who was the happiest in this "troublemaking incident", Michelle put on a poker face and explained righteously: "I just saw very clearly, you may not mean to, but it is undeniable that when you cut inside, your position really touched the opposing player."

As we all know, when running at a high speed, a little friction is enough to bring an accident, so there is no doubt about your foul! ”

Watching Michel explain while accurately comparing the parts he had encountered with Soriano before, although Muntari didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that the referee saw it very clearly this time.

Regardless of whether the collision could cause Soriano to fly out of the back, it is an indisputable fact that Muntari met Soriano, and in this case, although Muntari continued to argue with Michel next, but in terms of momentum, he was involuntary and dropped by 3 points.

On the one hand, even if it is wrong, it must be completely wrong, and on the other hand, the fighting spirit has lost its original courage, and more importantly, the power of life and death on the court is in the hands of the former.

This confrontation, in fact, was doomed to defeat on the side of Crystal Palace from the very beginning. I'm not afraid of how happy your Crystal Palace players are, and I don't care about Friedman's face and neck being thick when he argues with the fourth official on the sidelines after seeing Michelle's decision.

Penalties are already a fact and cannot be changed! ——

Robert Pires, although he is nearly forty years old and has come to the end of his career, but, with his footwork and tournament experience, Pires is undoubtedly the most experienced one in the Villarreal team, so after the fact of the penalty was decided, he did not experience too many twists and turns, and he was usually only the second penalty kicker in the team, but he took over the power from the feet of Nihart and came to the penalty spot as a matter of course.

Put the ball like your own child, gently place it at the penalty spot, take a deep breath, calm down all the negative emotions in your heart, gently take 2 steps back, not complicated, just these few small actions, Pires has already raised his spirit to an optimal situation, just waiting for the referee to blow the whistle.

Look at Diego López's side again.

So far in his career, Diego López has saved 2 of 49 penalties, almost 4 per cent.

Under the saving attribute of Diego López, to tell the truth, the Crystal Palace players do not have much hope for Diego López to save the opponent's penalty, even if Diego López himself, even if he doesn't want to admit it, he has to admit that the probability of saving the opponent's penalty is really not high.

"Since it's not high, let's just practice." Thinking about what Li Yi whispered in his ear after discovering that it was no longer possible to change the referee's decision, Diego López, who was on the court, made a very strange move - he put away his originally open arms.

If it is said that in the penalty shootout between Crystal Palace and Manchester United not long ago, Van der Sar only picked up one hand, which was regarded as a tactic to provoke the Crystal Palace players, at this time, Diego Lopes's unusual action makes people completely unsure of what kind of calculation he is playing.

Abnormal? Why do you say that Diego López's action is abnormal? As we all know, what is the best way to score a goal in football? That's because the penalty spot is so close to the goal that there really isn't much time left for the goalkeeper to react.

In such a situation, even a few tenths of a second, the goalkeeper must fight for it.

Raising your hands and being ready to save at any time is one of the things that the goalkeeper counts against when saving a penalty.

Think about it, although it doesn't seem that there is much difference between hands hanging down and preparing near the chest, it is not.

To be precise, for all saves, the goalkeeper spreads his body and raises his hands, at least one hand above his head.

So, if the final result is to lift over the top of the head, it goes without saying that the hand is placed on the chest or the position near the knees, which is easier and faster to complete the lifting over the head.

And just under Pires' somewhat surprised gaze, Diego López's side will carry out the anomaly to the end. Not only did he put his hands down, but his legs were bent.

Seeing a "gorilla" appear in front of his eyes like this, Pires wanted to laugh, but he didn't dare to laugh.

If you want to laugh, anyone who sees Diego López, who has a conscientious performance and has no highlights and no slots, can actually pretend to be a gorilla on the court, and his first reaction is to laugh.

But also because of Diego López's unpretentious character, Pires didn't dare to laugh at the moment. It is said that there must be a demon when things go wrong, although as a Frenchman, Pires may not have heard of this Celestial Empire idiom, but he definitely understands the meaning of this sentence.

As an honest goalkeeper, it is impossible for Diego López to make this kind of action for no reason, and now that he has done it, he feels that he has a point.

With all kinds of thoughts, after the referee on duty blew the whistle to signal that he could take the penalty, Pires was stunned for a moment, and then began to run.

And when Pires was running, he didn't even notice it, because Diego López's previous series of abnormal actions had unknowingly wiped out the momentum he had accumulated before.

And, because he didn't understand what Diego López sang this for, in order to better pursue the angle, he tried not to give the opponent the chance to save as much as possible, in the choice of shots, when he was about to play with his feet, Pires also made changes.

Before, he wanted to hit the goal hard, but now, in order to pursue the angle, Pires changed it to a push.

Raising his head, he confirmed for the last time whether Diego López had predicted in advance, and as soon as he raised his head, Pires, who could not hold back his laughter before, did not hold back his breath, and laughed "poof" and laughed out loud.

What exactly is it that causes Pires to be so out of shape?

So what, can Pires tell you that Diego López on the pitch can be so funny? Look at the person with his hands on his knees, the whole person looks like a slime, his shoulders are shaking, can Pires hold back?

Then, even Pires didn't notice it again, and just as he was holding his breath before and unloading because of the big smile, his right foot also gave away the penalty.

"Bump!" Feeling the touch of his feet and the ball, with his years of experience, Pires instantly analyzed that this shot was a little bit worse than his expectations.

The light weight of the force means that the opposing goalkeeper will be easier to save, and coincidentally, after a black pop dance on the field, Diego López made a fool of himself, and the direction of the save was exactly the direction of Pires' shot. In this way, it undoubtedly increases the possibility of the opponent making a save.

The only thing that can comfort Pires a little bit may be that his shot that pursues the angle did not deviate because of his previous discouragement, but was a blessing in disguise and went straight to the corner of the goal.
