Chapter 33: Ghost Ronaldo
In the ensuing corner, Sporting Lisbon failed to score.
Headers are not this team's strong suit.
Deng Kai watched Ronaldo's straightforward and simple header grab points, and couldn't help complaining in his heart.
But it's understandable.
The soul of the header is in the running position, but the foundation is in the body.
At this stage, Ronaldo's physical fitness is not stronger than that of his opponent, and he has no advantage in heading.
What's more, he has not yet regarded his header as a goal, and is still obsessed with attacking with his feet.
He also needs a lot of time to develop his arsenal.
Instead of winning the corner, Plzen fought for the first spot with this corner and then tried to attack.
But their offense died in the first ring.
Deng Kai spoiled the football with a beautiful tackle.
At this time, the physical fitness of most of the players on the field is below the red line.
Their key movements unconsciously slow down.
Deng Kai's tackle became easier.
In just five minutes, Deng Kai completed two steals and one interception in succession.
The defensive stats exploded in an instant.
Helped Sporting Lisbon contain the comeback of Plzen's victory.
Eighty-fourth minute.
After Deng Kai received the ball in the midfield, he deceived the defenders who came to grab the ball with a back-footed pull, and the wind was blowing at his feet, and he jumped out with the ball in an instant, completing a high-quality advancement.
"Wow! It is hard to believe that Deng Kai, who is only thirteen years old, has completed a high-speed advance at this stage! ”
"The speed of his instant explosion just now is even about the same as Chris, who is on the verge of exhaustion!"
"The resilience of this young player is just too strong!"
"Pass! Deng Kai passed to Chris, who cut in, before the arrival of Plzen's central defender. ”
"Chris...... Non-stop ball out! It's a wall-to-wall fit! ”
Deng Kai...... It's hitting the wall again! Deng Kai and Chris are too tacit! Hitting the wall twice in a row, Chris completely got rid of all defenders, and he dribbled into the big penalty area! Chris ......"
"Fell! Chris falls in the big penalty area! Plzen's centre-back hooked his foot from behind! ”
"Penalty! Sure enough, the referee's eyes were bright! Red Dot Package! Plzeň's victory is in jeopardy! ”
"Chris won a penalty for Sporting Lisbon that could change the outcome of the game!"
"If this penalty is scored, Sporting Lisbon could have beaten Plzen for their first win in the UEFA Youth League! Their points will also go from one to four. ”
"Considering there are still two rounds to go, they have a glimmer of hope for themselves to qualify for the group stage!"
There was no doubt that the penalty was taken by Cristiano Ronaldo.
He stood behind the penalty spot and took a deep breath.
The muscles in his face stiffened and even twitched unnaturally.
His eyes were also a little wandering.
It's very different from when he took the penalty in the future.
No one is born with a big heart.
Only a natural lack of heart.
The real big heart is to be stacked with successes and failures.
With the penalty awarded, Ronaldo paid his first tuition fee in a major tournament.
His penalty was saved by Cech.
Petr Cech completely predicted the direction of Ronaldo's penalty and made a god-level save.
"Oh my God! Petr Cech saved Chris's penalty! ”
"It's amazing! That's amazing! ”
'Cech is definitely the best goalkeeper I've ever seen in the UEFA Youth League!'
"Cech raised his arms and shouted, his momentum completely overshadowed Chris on the other side!"
"Chris covered his face, he missed his chance to be a hero."
"The people in the stands were blaming him and I could even hear the comments about the disappointment in him through the broadcast footage!"
"Indeed, judging by today's performance, Chris is far from being the next Simao. His dribbling is a little stiff, and his vision, big picture, passing, and tactical running are not mature enough. ”
"His only magic weapon, speed and shooting, also had a bad one today."
"Maybe he's just a Simão three-point zero forced by Sporting Lisbon? In contrast, I think Quaresma, who is in a higher echelon, is the future of Sporting Lisbon! ”
The commentary beeped and brought the audience in front of the TV directly to Quaresma, allowing many viewers to understand this talented player who is more than Chris.
But on the pitch, Deng Kai walked up to Ronaldo and patted him on the shoulder, reminding him that the game was not over yet.
Ronaldo nodded reluctantly, but his form apparently did not return.
In the ensuing corner, Sporting Lisbon took a tactical corner.
After many transmissions, the football was sent to the feet of Ronaldo who ran out of the penalty area.
Cristiano Ronaldo tries to get past in the penalty area.
He's already killed Redeye.
He's going to prove himself.
You have to prove yourself with more exciting goals.
Bang!
Faced with layers of defenders, it is obviously impossible for Ronaldo to complete a dragon.
As soon as he got past the first man, the football was out of his control and snatched up by the Plzen winning player.
This time, Plzen triumphantly launched a successful counterattack.
Sporting Lisbon tried to defend back, but most of them couldn't keep up with the speed of football.
"Nice conduction! The Plzen midfielder made a brilliant pass! ”
"Plzen striker gets the ball, one-on-one!"
"Wait! Who caught up? Chris? ”
"Nope! It's Deng Kai! ”
Bang!
Just when the Plzen striker had already made a single knife, Deng Kai ran all the way from the front to the back, and fell to the ground before the opponent could shoot.
The ball hit him on the calf and flew high before being held by the Sporting Lisbon goalkeeper.
"Oh! What a pity! If Plzen's strikers had been a little quicker and had shot a little earlier, the goal would have gone in! ”
"I'm afraid no one would have thought that the person who ruined this shot would be Deng Kai, the youngest player in the game, right?"
"He did a great job today and he has a leadership quality that no one else in this team has!"
'If Cech's performance today was to build an impregnable wall in front of the Plzen goal! Then Deng Kai is the moving wall here at Sporting Lisbon today! Both of them dominated the opposing team's game and ruined most of the opposing team's scoring opportunities! ”
"If Deng Kai is older and taller, he may become the prey of many teams. Keep this attitude towards the game and he will be a good sapper midfielder in the future! ”
At this time, Sporting Lisbon's teammates came back to pick up.
The game is coming to an end.
They are on the verge of a fourth winless run of this Youth Champions League campaign.
However, even so, after receiving the ball, Deng Kai still chose to pass the football to Ronaldo.
He believes in Cristiano Ronaldo.
But Ronaldo disappointed Deng Kai.
He chose to return the passback.
I can't move suddenly, and I don't dare to rush out!
Ten seconds later, the ball passed to Ronaldo again.
Ronaldo looked up at the defender in front of him and returned the pass again.
Fifteen seconds later, the ball rolled from Deng Kai's feet to Ronaldo again.
At this moment, everyone saw that Deng Kai was competing with Ronaldo!
