Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Flying Dragon is in the Sky

Breaking the deadlock in an unpretentious way, Zhang Chaoqiang even seemed casual in celebrating.

But the fans were very happy.

The most famous player scores first, and the ticket to the final is no longer lost.

Sevilla, the reigning champions of the Europa League, are well prepared for this final.

They conceded less than 10 minutes into the game, but after the game restarted, they were still actively looking for opportunities and did not hold back at all.

In the 12th minute, Banega's cross was met by Baca's jumping header that hit the crossbar and almost equalised for Sevilla.

Four minutes later, they created chaos in front of Lyon from a corner.

Under the continuous attacking pressure, the Lyon goal did not hold on for long.

In the 24th minute, Reyes' through ball was successfully delivered to the feet of Bacca, and the Colombian striker shook off Umtiti near the penalty spot and scored with a push.

Now the two teams are back on the same page.

The continuous fast-paced offense made the two teams gradually fall into a state of attack.

Lyon are in good form and are not afraid to attack.

Zhang Chaoqiang's breakthrough and Lacazette's header also threatened the Sevilla goal continuously.

But apart from the previous two goals, both teams were unscathed.

In the 44th minute of the game, Lyon won a well-positioned free kick in front, and the fans immediately chanted Super Zhang.

The stunning free-kick four days ago is still fresh in our minds, and everyone has not forgotten it.

Zhang Chaoqiang did take the free kick, but unfortunately it was slightly off the post.

In this way, the two teams ended the first half with a score of 1:1.

β€»β€»β€»

'We had a good overall performance in the first half, but we needed to be more careful defensively.

"It's our first European final, so if I'm not mistaken, we haven't tasted European champions, right?"

"Tonight is a great opportunity for us, and I believe no one wants to miss it......"

With the Ligue 1 title already under the roster, Fournier's mentality is very relaxed, just a simple encouragement to the players, and by the way, an emphasis on defence.

Umtiti may have snuck out after winning Ligue 1, so he wasn't in shape tonight.

Fournier's emphasis on defense is just to nurture him and get him to hit the spotlight.

At the start of the second half, Lyon once again took the lead.

In the first attack after kick-off, Zhang Chaoqiang stepped forward with the ball on the right side, suddenly accelerated to start, successfully shook off the opposite left-back Tremolinas, and hoisted the ball to the back of the goal.

The ball managed to get past the Sevilla goalkeeper, but Fekir on the other side actually sent the ball away.

"Zhang Chaoqiang gave a brilliant performance at the beginning again, but unfortunately his teammates didn't give it this time." The domestic commentary is the most regrettable.

Zhang Chaoqiang has won the Ligue 1 championship and locked up the Europa League Golden Boot.

If we can win the Europa League again, then this season will be perfect.

There was a thrilling picture at the beginning of the second half, and fans thought that this game would be attacked to the end.

However, the game was in a stalemate.

Sevilla began to slowly shrink their defence and switch to conservative tactics.

Zhang Chaoqiang on the pitch is well aware that Sevilla are making more and more defensive small moves, specifically targeting him and Lacazette.

In fact, in the first half of the game, the opponent had this kind of small action, but in general it was within the acceptable range.

Seriously, no team in football has a completely clean defense.

But dirty is another matter.

In the first half, Sevilla just played a little greasy, and now they are getting dirtier and dirtier.

The key is that they are very good at kicking and know how to avoid the eyes of the referee.

What's more, tonight's referee is Atkinson, one of the Premier League's four magical blinds.

As a result, the pace of the game was slowed down and the field was deadlocked.

For more than 20 minutes in a row, neither team could find a chance to threaten the opponent's goal.

Emery on the sidelines finally straightened his back.

The pace of the game is completely under the control of their own team, and the next thing is to keep dragging.

If you are in a hurry with the other side of the drag, it is likely to be your team's chance.

If the other side is not in a hurry, then keep delaying, even if it drags on until the penalty shootout, it is not afraid.

In last season's Europa League final, they beat Benfica on penalties to win the title.

In the 73rd minute, it was another offensive round for Lyon.

Tolisso pressed in front of the box and delivered a good through ball.

Lacazette had his back to goal near the penalty spot and would have had a chance to turn and hit the back of goal if he could get the ball on the spot.

But the moment he stepped forward to catch the ball, he was hit on the thigh from behind.

This caused him to make a serious mistake in stopping the ball two metres away and bouncing it into the air.

Cameroonian defender Mbia immediately rushed to clear the ball.

But as soon as he started, he noticed that someone was catching up from behind, ready to overtake.

Mbiya's first instinct was to squeeze the opponent away hard, but it didn't have much effect.

By the time he reached for his shirt on his second reaction, he had already overtaken him completely.

Zhang Chaoqiang rushed to the ball, and the football was bouncing to the highest point in the air and was about to fall.

He immediately jumped on his knees and threw himself into the air.

Twist your waist and shake your legs hard.

Draw straight down the falling football.

"Upside down golden hook!!" At this moment, the world's commentators exclaimed in unison.

The football was hit by Zhang Chaoqiang's right foot, and he turned into a cannonball and flew towards the Sevilla goal.

Faced with such a surprise shot, the Sevilla goalkeeper could not react at all.

Silly standing in front of the door, watching the football enter the door.

β€œGoooooooal——————”

"Super Zhang!! It's super goal again!! ”

"A very nice barb to score, a super brace and Lyon take the lead again!!"

"This should be a mistake by Lacazette, Zhang quickly rushed forward and scored directly with a barb!"

"Whenever the game is deadlocked, Super Zhang is always the most trustworthy one!"

In the face of such a barb and a broken door, the Chinese commentary is obviously more Chinese.

"Pretty!!"

"What a move, the flying dragon is in the sky! Onslaught!! ”

"This ball is so beautiful!"

"A perfect barb goal, Zhang Chaoqiang is no longer satisfied with playing on the grass, he also wants to conquer the higher sky!"

In the Warsaw National Stadium, the moment Zhang Chaoqiang scored with a barb, countless fans stood up suddenly.

Loud applause and cheers for the goal.

In addition to the fans of both sides of the match, there were also a large number of neutral fans in this final.

For them, it's just a good game and a good goal.

Now Zhang Chaoqiang offered a barb to break the goal, which was more beautiful than expected, and they did not hesitate to send applause and cheers.

After the football entered the goal, Zhang Chaoqiang fell from the air and threw it heavily on the turf.

But when he saw the success of football, he immediately got up and rushed to the sidelines, throwing his fists hard in celebration.

"Super Zhang, well done!!"

"Good one, another one!"

"A hat-trick."

The fans in the stands applauded and shouted at him to keep up the hard work and wear a hat.

β€»β€»β€»

Lyon took the lead again with a barb from Zhang, and it was Sevilla's turn to be anxious.

With just over 10 minutes left in the game, if they don't equalise, they will have to lose the title and, by the way, qualify for next season's Champions League.

After the match resumed, Leon played a game of conspiracy with his opponent.

As long as the confrontation action is a little bigger, immediately go to the grass, and justifiably delay the time.

It was a new instruction that Fournier conveyed through captain Gonalones when celebrating the barb goal.

This time it was Sevilla who wanted to speed up the pace of the game, and Lyon held on.

As the minutes ticked by, the Sevilla players became more and more anxious.

In the 86th minute, Cameroonian defender Mbia finally couldn't hold back his anger, and when he was forcing Fekir, he saw that the opponent deliberately dragged the ball near the sideline to delay time, so he directly kicked people and fouled.

Fekir hugged his ankle and rolled as a skirmish broke out between the players on both sides.

Atkinson, in an attempt to control the game, sent Mbiya off with a red card.

Now everyone is much more relieved.

Fournier then slowly used up his remaining substitutions to keep the score 2-1 until the end.

Tick-tick-tick- tick –

The Atkinson whistle and the whole Lyon team immediately began to cheer and celebrate.

"At the end of the game, congratulations to Lyon, who beat Sevilla 2-1 with a brace from Chinese Super Zhang to win the Europa League for the first time in their history."

"It's also the first time in Ligue 1 history that they have won the Europa League."

"Ligue 1 teams have reached the Europa League final four times before, Bastia once, Bordeaux once, Marseille twice, all of them have failed to win the title."

"Now, it is the Lion King of Ligue 1 that Lyon has completed this breakthrough."

"Zhang, the super-talented who scored two goals for Lyon in the final, also became the first Chinese player to win the Europa League."
