Time condensed into glue, dripping heavily on the edge of the horizon, sticking to all the sounds of the world. The ball grazed the goalkeeper's outstretched leg and rolled at a very slow pace in the direction of the silence. Before it could fully cross the white line that was bound to be crossed, Millet had already raced to the edge of the pitch. The turf, which had been somewhat dried by the sun, still pulled two smooth tracks under the glide of his knees. Yes, it was the first time we played on a real green field, and it was the first time we witnessed such a hearty celebration. With his arms outstretched, he was quickly thrown to the ground by me catching up from behind, but the index finger of the small hand was still pointing to the sky.

A few years ago, you told me you wanted to kneel on the grass to celebrate. Now my partner and I have finally made the move. You're so bad, it hurts, I won't dare next time, unless I hit a goal like this that makes the earth tremble a little.

But if you can see, watch as much as you like. My finger is pointing right where you are, too. If you can't see it, then wait for me, wait for me patiently, and I'll keep this scene in my mind. On the day I leave, I will keep recalling it so that I can return to you with this memory.

In the true sense of the word, we will know after the game that the ball rolled into the goal and the four minutes of stoppage time were all over. As if the victory and defeat had been decided, the deafening cheers shook the sky like guns and cannons, and the wolves hung their heads and went limp, and the chasers forgot the heaviness of their shells and flew into the heroic sky. I picked up my little prince and hit his nose with his chin and his forehead touched my cheek. We were as excited as rabbits in March, with electricity running from the top of our heads to our limbs, our ears knotted to ourselves.

Everyone rushed here, whether they were on the pitch or on the bench or in the camera area. Only the coach knelt on the ground and raised his clenched fists high above his head, as if holding up the whole sky for us. The blue and white jerseys were stained with sweat and mud after an afternoon of fighting, and now their owners are the happiest people on the planet. The former sick and the now wounded have shaken off the dullness and pain, cowardice, loneliness, and loss, which are just rumors of being abandoned in the past. "Heaven and earth have righteousness, mixed manifolds", the gloves pointed to the blue sky, although the small red characters are not clear, but the vigorous life and youth make me clearly feel that people have the possibility of turning into mountains, rivers or sun, moon and stars.

I never imagined that I would have such a strong imagination when attacking, and I never imagined that the celebration after a goal would make me feel like life at an unparalleled high. As I tried my best to release and run, I seemed to experience the life of a man who had also run here and wore the number 23 jersey.

He is not far from me. Through the interplay of light and shadow of countless days, moons, and moons, and the convergence and dispersion that may or may not be repeated, in the shadows that flashed in the sunlight and continued to run forward, I found him.

I believe the next penalty shoot-out will be won.

In order to shield myself from the strong sunlight, I put on a black hat given to me by Mu Zheng, and the letters engraved with the leap of life shone brightly. Zhao Rui took the initiative to hand me the gloves. It must be me and you who stand in front of the goal on behalf of No. 1 Middle School. After thirty minutes of running, the light and weight on my head and hands made me feel tired, just a lie that could be broken at the first poke.

It was Qiao Li who walked to the door with the ball in his hand. I guessed he would kick to the right, so he kicked to the right. The fingertips touched the ball, and the speed and power allowed it to reach the net. One 0:1 fifty-four.

We're the first to come out here is Xuexue. A seemingly casual spoon penalty, it is the most elegant and difficult of all penalty shots. In the 2006 World Cup final, the world-famous French star Zinedine Zidane kicked a wonderful spoon penalty in the 7th minute against Italian goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon. The ball hit the crossbar and bounced off the goal line quickly, but it still didn't change the fact that France had taken the lead. It was Zidane's last game, and the spoon penalty was also his last. After the game, he will be awarded the Ballon d'Or and named in the World Cup Team of the Year.

Like Zinedine Zidane in the final game, Xuexue rubbed a near-perfect lob shot, the ball flew beautifully towards the goal, with a treacherous angle, and the opposing goalkeeper also misjudged the direction. Only the most confident and heart-to-heart player would dare to perform such skills in a penalty shoot-out. It seemed like night in Berlin, and different balls hit the crossbar in the same way.

But it didn't bounce into the goal line, but landed directly outside the door. The black mask was smashed against the turf. One 0:1 fifty-four.

The next one to appear was Chen Yanba. I guess it's the right side this time. The ball went under the armpit, and it was a little bit closer, and it was half a second faster to save. 1 0:2 54.

Millet is here. The ball hit to the left, and Zhen Ge didn't guess the right direction. 1:2 54. With a simple high-five celebration, he went back.

The third is Manlin. I chose the left. Pounced, palms down the edge. The ball hit the ground and bounced off my fallen foot into the net. It would be nice to have longer legs. He smiled, rejoicing. 1:3 54.

Mu Zheng appeared. He took the fastest penalty and the ball was in the net in the blink of an eye. Resolute in the upper right corner, did not give the goalkeeper any chance. The arm was raised again, and although it had lost a lot of weight, the strength had not yet dissipated. 1 2:3 54.

The opponent in the fourth round is Ah Fang. Or on the right. The ball flashed past the hand, hit the post and bounced into the net. Hanging very much. This time I think it's the arm that's a little longer. 1 2:4 54.

"Brother, come on."

Ye Ruiyang stood in front of the ball. We still have a chance. The fifth one to appear should be Li Bin. Ye Ruiyang scored first, and I saved Li Bin's penalty, and the score was 3:4.

I was the last one to take the penalty. As long as the penalty is scored, both sides will be back on the same line. In the "sudden death" phase, coyotes will not be so lucky.

He's definitely going to hit a high, and he's always been so steady. How can we as elder brothers lose to younger brothers? What's more, we are both people who have worn the captain's armband. Firm steps out, very standard shooting stance. However, the left foot supporting the body seems to be a little slippery, probably because the sun is too strong, and it is not necessarily only in heavy rain that people will slip. The ball was kicked out and deflected off the left post.

We got to the edge of the cliff. The next thing I have to save is to save the penalty and I have to score it so that I can turn the tide. "See you when you are poor", you have to watch your brother's performance carefully.

You'll be able to bless me with the title.

Li Bin came in, and I saved your penalty kick in the opening period. I've done it before, and I'll definitely do it this time. At the last moment, it will never be just a little worse.

But why did his teammates run away? My companions also fell, like small trees that had been cut down, and only Miller was still standing with his head bowed. Ye Ruiyang didn't get up either, he buried his head in his knees.

It seems that someone is shouting, and many people are shouting, and the shouting makes me a little panicked.

I seem to have forgotten something.

Oh, it's over.
