Chapter 60: New Skill - Header Score!
At 3 p.m. on the 27th, Sevilla, Resti Lubera Stadium, Real Madrid and Real Betis match began.
Most of Real Madrid's main players sat on the bench, with Ruud van Nistelrooy and Higuain partnering as the starting strikers, Guti and Gago leading the midfield, the back line was all the main players, Cannavaro and Pepe partnered as central defenders, and they were flanked by Marcelo and Ramos on their left and right.
At the beginning of the game, Real Betis took advantage of the home advantage and launched a ferocious attack on Real Madrid. Real Madrid relied on their experience to contend with their opponents, but the aging Cannavaro made mistakes early in the game. In the 10th minute, he brought down the opposition striker Edu in the box when he lost his position.
The referee blew the whistle decisively, with a yellow card and a penalty. Edu then converted a penalty of his own making, giving Real Betis a 1-0 lead at home. With the score behind, Real Madrid launched a frantic counterattack.
In the 35th minute of the first half, Ruud van Nistelrooy showed his true colors as the king of the penalty area, grabbed the point, and scored the equalizer with Gago's cross into the opponent's goal, and the two sides returned to the same running line.
In the rest of the first half, neither side was on the scoresheet. In the second half, Schuster replaced the inactive Higuain for 10 minutes and brought Robinho on.
Robinho was so excited that he wanted to convince Schuster with his performances and give himself a chance to play in the Champions League in three days' time. But he was too impatient and missed many good chances to score.
The game was a stalemate, and Don couldn't help but walk up to Schuster. Remind him that it's time to put himself on the pitch. The player showed a strong fighting spirit, and Schuster couldn't refuse, so he had to smile and shake his head and let him prepare for the event.
In the 27th minute of the second half, Schuster asked Don to replace Ruud van Nistelrooy, who scored a goal.
The Real Madrid players looked at Tang Jue as he walked into the stadium and were shocked, believing that the guy who scored six goals in the last game should have a good performance in this game. Real Betis' players were the opposite, looking at Tang Jue with some fear.
The game resumes. Guti suddenly kicked a long pass from a long distance in the backfield!
The pass was over 60 metres away. The spot was on the line of the Real Betis penalty area. Guti's pass overtook all the players and Real Betis goalkeeper Ricardo thought he could get the ball and raced off the goal line.
After Guti's pass, Tang Jue, who had just come on the field. began to run wildly. Like a bolt of lightning. After five steps. Shake off the pull of the opposing defender and run towards the football!
From a distance, I saw two figures getting closer and closer to the football!
Tang Jue quickly analyzed the situation he was facing in his brain: using his feet to control the football. It's impossible, the only chance is to jump up, fight for the top with your head, and there is a glimmer of hope.
Headers have never been his strength because of his height, and his last header was back when he was at Saint-Germain. Three years ago, in the Champions League group stage, Saint-Germain challenged CSKA Moscow away, and when the team was behind, he scored with an ultra-low header, sounding the clarion call for Saint-Germain to fight back.
Since then, he has never scored with his head in a match. That is, he has only scored with a header once since he played professionally.
Guti shook his head at the back, thinking that his pass was a little too powerful. If it's Thierry Henry, he thinks there's still a glimmer of hope for the ball.
No one believed that Don would be able to grab the ball, let alone finish the shot. The defenders of Real Betis stopped to catch up, looked at Tang Jue, who did not give up, and felt that this Mr. 160 million was stupid, obviously he didn't have a chance to get the ball, and he didn't hesitate to run wildly with his physical strength, so why waste his physical energy.
Ricardo looked at the football and Tang Jue who were getting closer and closer, and a smile appeared on his face. It's a good feeling to be able to pluck a soccer ball off the top of Mr. 160 million's head, as if standing on the shoulders of Mr. 160 million and watching the world, which is not something anyone can enjoy!
He even thought about what he said to Tang Jue after holding the football in his arms: "Mr. 160 million, you are too short!" ”
Out of excitement, he shouted out the words in advance when he jumped on his right foot.
"You're too short! This ball is mine! ”
Ricardo shouted excitedly and jumped to his feet. However, just as his first word came out between his lips and teeth, Tang Jue actually jumped up!
Seeing Tang Jue jump, Ricardo was even happier. It's so cool to use your advantage to defeat Mr. 160 million!
Still no one is optimistic about Tang Jue, but Tang Jue's performance exceeded people's expectations, he jumped very high!
"Pong ......!" The bodies of the two slammed into each other in the air!
Almost at the same time, the top of Tang Jue's head and Ricciardo's hands touched the football!
The soccer ball flew out!
Ricardo fell backwards!
Tang Jue also fell!
Football is like a lonely child, playing alone, it is a little angry, dangling in the air to find its own toys. The net is his toy!
The ball flies over the goal line and into the net!
The ball is in!
The score became 2-1, and Real Madrid overtook the score!
At this time, only five seconds before Tang Jue came on the field, he used a header that he was not good at to break through the opponent's goal!
The referee blew the whistle and declared the ball valid, and the Real Betis players quit, and they approached the referee to theorize that Tang Jue's header was suspected of being a foul. The referee shouted: "The goalkeeper leaves the goal area, other players can physically collide with him, there is nothing wrong with this ball!" ”
Real Madrid's Betis players had no choice but to give up. The media reporters in the Madrid area on the sidelines looked at Tang Jue in surprise, his feet were superb, his free kick skills were gradually improving, and now even the worst header had broken through, did this person want to march towards the all-round striker?
Henry looked at the pitch incredulously, before that. He had never seen Tang Jue score with a header on the pitch. Henry slapped his forehead and asked Ribery next to him, "Did he score from here?" ”
Ribery nodded and said affirmatively: "I can see it clearly, it's a header!" ”
Henry shouted, "Damn, when did he learn to head the ball?" ”
"And he jumped so high!" Henry gestured with his hand exaggeratedly. He then began to cheer, and the Real Madrid bench roared with joy. Schuster shook his head and began to applaud, which was beyond his expectations.
Tang Jue remembered what Ricardo had said a few seconds ago, and he was a little annoyed. What's wrong with being short? Height is not up to you. He got up from the turf. Bending over, he shouted at Ricciardo: "I'm short, but you're tall and useless, and it's not like I've broken your goal with a header!" ”
After speaking. He didn't give Ricardo a chance to fight back at all. Walk away. Hug and celebrate with your teammates...... The most excited was Guti, he didn't expect Tang Jue to succeed in the competition and let the football fly into the opponent's goal. He shouted at Tang Jue, "Damn, Tang, it's amazing that you can jump so high!" ”
Tang Jue smiled and said, "There are many things that surprise you, and you will find more surprises in the future!" ”
……
Lying on the turf, Ricardo couldn't figure out how he couldn't pluck the football off the top of the opponent's head with his hands.
"Why can he jump so high?"
No one answered his question.
The game restarted, and ten minutes later, Ricciardo once again learned Tang Jue's header technique. Gago took a corner kick, and Tang Jue, who had never fought for a header before, was ambushed in the middle of the penalty area to fight for a header. The players of Real Betis did not take Tang Jue, who is only 1.75 meters tall, in their eyes at all, and did not send anyone to defend him full-time.
The football flew into the penalty area, and countless people jumped. Guti in front of Tang Jue was plotted by Somosa and did not jump. However, Somosa himself did not reach the ball, and the football flew above Tang Jue's head. The moment his forehead touched the football, his neck jerked to the right!
The lion shakes its head!
The soccer ball flew past Ricciardo's left and into the net!
Three to one!
Real Madrid extend their advantage in the score!
After Tang Jue scored the goal, he didn't forget to sarcastically mock Ricardi again, and yelled at him: "See, this is my second header!" ”
He slapped his forehead excitedly, turned around and ran wildly on the court!
The Real Madrid bench let out a howl, today's game was amazing, the striker who is known for breaking through, two goals, were scored with his head!
To be honest, Tang Jue's first goal was to get a chance with his excellent bounce, and there was a certain amount of luck in the second goal. Football matches are inherently lucky, the '90 World Cup, the quarter-finals, Argentina and Brazil meet.
The powerful Brazil launched a flowing attack, and Argentina under the leadership of the football king Maradona could only set up an "iron bucket formation". Brazil were formidable, bombarding Argentina for 80 minutes, with at least six or seven of those shots hitting the woodwork. Argentina's luck turned against the sky, coupled with the excellent performance of their goalkeeper Goyechea, they were able to withstand Brazil's onslaught.
Brazil was unlucky, Argentina relied on Maradona's excellent performance, surrounded by four Brazilian players, to send a wonderful pass to the "son of the wind" Caniggia. Caniggia didn't waste his chance and sent the ball into the Brazilian goal. With this goal, Argentina eliminated the mighty Brazil 1-0.
The match turned into a classic, with no luck Brazil, eliminated by Argentina. There are many such examples, when a weak team encounters a strong team, it relies on tenacious defense, maneuvers with the opponent, and then waits for the opportunity to successfully sneak attack, which has become a classic example of defeating the strong with the weak.
……
Tang Jue's heart was full of joy, feeling that this world was too beautiful, the grass was so green, the sky was so blue, water, yes, there was no water...... Anyway, he thought everything was good, so he howled and threw himself at Schuster......
The reporters on the sidelines arrived and were shocked, and the media in the Madrid area seemed excited, they have something to brag about tomorrow, so that Real Madrid can come out of the negative news of the previous period!
Don hit the goal with his head, God, how attractive it is!
After a minute, the game resumed, and in the final ten minutes, neither side could score again, and the game ended 3-1, Real Madrid won three in a row after two draws, and they completely got out of the slump! (To be continued......)
PS: The World Cup has begun, and everyone's happy days are coming. My hard days came, I had to go to work during the day, watch football at night, and find time to code. I will never break the update, this is my promise, since the beginning of this book, it has not been broken, this is a good habit, I want to stick to it!
By the way, last night's game, Croatia was hacked, hey, this is the world of football, it has never been pure, pure, it has been mixed with other things.
