Chapter 116: Inheritance of the Old and the New, Eighteen-Year-Old Sky!
"Manchester City's counterattack, the ball passed to Lin Quan's feet!"
"Lin Quan has entered the forbidden area!"
"Courtois strikes!"
"The ball is in!"
"What an unbelievable goal!"
He Wei said with emotion: "The push behind Philippe's back made Lin Quan almost lose his balance, and Courtois's attack was extraordinarily decisive, so that he didn't have much time to deal with the ball, but in such a desperate situation, Lin Quan completed the adjustment in time, and finally scored the ball, such a goal is worthy of any praise!" ”
"That's right, Lin Quan, an eighteen-year-old player, stood on the stage of the Champions League final for the first time, and used a precious goal as gold to force Atletico Madrid into a desperate situation, Atletico Madrid must score, otherwise they are likely to lose the championship trophy because of Lin Quan's goal!"
Compared with foreign commentators, CCTV's two commentators are actually relatively bland.
In the commentators of European countries, Lin Quan's goal made the major commentators completely crazy.
The commentators of the major TV stations dragged out the end of the word representing the goal as if they were in a breath-holding competition, and people couldn't help but worry about whether they would suffocate to death because they held their breath for too long.
On the Internet, after Lin Quan scored this goal, the fans, especially Lin Quan and Manchester City fans, collectively fell into a carnival!
"Lin Huang is awesome (broken sound)!"
"Niu wo Niu wo, this goal can be scored, I thought that Lin Huang would fall in the penalty area to cheat a penalty!"
"Hehe, Lin Huang is not the kind of person who likes to fake falls, besides, the place where Philip fouled is outside the penalty area, even if this ball is a foul, it is only a free kick, it can't be a penalty!"
"How do I feel that Philip's push has helped Emperor Lin? If he hadn't been pushed, he might not have been able to get Aguero's pass before Courtois! ”
"Hehe, if that's the case, then it's a great credit to Philip!"
"No, the referee gave him a yellow card, which is considered merit, right?"
Compared to the excited Manchester City fans, Atletico Madrid fans are much more pessimistic.
"Diego Costa is injured, the team is behind again, this game is too difficult for my Sheets!"
"yes, if Diego Costa hadn't gone injured, maybe we would have scored in those chances in the first half!"
"Alas, in the final analysis, our lineup is too thin, if we have the depth of the bench like Manchester City, we won't be able to use a set of lineups to win the world!"
"The combined value of the players in the Manchester City team is more than 500 million euros, right? It's so expensive, we can't afford it! ”
Although Atletico Madrid has a good record, it is far inferior to those traditional giants.
Although Manchester City is not a giant, they have a powerful consortium behind them.
The two teams are not at the same level of financial resources at all, and it is basically unrealistic to expect Atletico to have a bench as deep as Manchester City.
Not to mention anything else, Atletico Madrid's main goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois in this game was all loaned by them from Chelsea.
Although Atletico Madrid are interested in buying out the Belgian, Courtois is not very interested in keeping Atletico, and he only wants to return to the big club.
So, after this game, Courtois will leave Atletico Madrid and return to Stamford Bridge.
On the sidelines, in the Atletico dugout.
Simeone's face was sinking and the bench was gloomy, which was in stark contrast to the Manchester City coaching staff who were celebrating wildly next to him.
Lin Quan's goal caught Simeone a little off guard, and he made a lot of arrangements for Lin Quan before the game, in order to limit him and prevent Manchester City from scoring.
But now it seems that these arrangements are not enough.
The strength of the other party exceeded his expectations, Lin Quan's personal strength is similar to Messi, but his physical fitness seems to be much better than Messi, and many strategies against Messi are a bit unsuitable for him, and they can't play the greatest effect.
And this guy's mental attributes are also very strong, and he doesn't bother to waste time complaining after being violated.
Almost every time he was put down, he immediately got up, and then, like no one else, threw himself into a fierce scramble.
And his scramble is not a mere one, every scramble is done with all his might.
At both offensive and defensive ends, Lin Quan's figure can be seen.
Such a player feels even more terrible than Messi!
Of course, in addition to Lin Quan's good play, the goal conceded this time was also related to Atletico Madrid's tactics in the second half.
Long before Lin Quan completed this goal, Manchester City had already tried to break the ball and launch a counter-attack.
It's just that Atletico managed to defend it on the previous few occasions, and after Pellegrini adjusted Manchester City's attacking line, it led to the goal conceded this time.
Simeone felt he was unlucky, and there was no doubt that the responsibility for the goal was on his own.
However, the opponent had just changed his attacking tactics and scored on the first attempt.
It caught him off guard, and he saw Manuel Pellegrini tell Zabaleta to make a move, knowing City might have to make adjustments.
Simeone had planned to see how City would adjust and then take action to counter the opponent himself.
But the other party didn't give him a chance!
However, he did not despair easily.
The situation in this game is somewhat similar to the last round of La Liga, the one they played away to Barcelona.
The same main striker Diego Costa was injured, and it was the opponent who scored first.
But Atletico had the last laugh in that game and successfully lifted the La Liga trophy at Camp Nou.
After such a successful experience, Simeone is confident that his team can achieve the final victory.
He stood on the sidelines and began to shout to the players on the pitch, thanks to the prestige he has accumulated and the aura that comes from just leading the team to win the league title, the Atletico players have great trust in Simeone.
The Atletico Madrid players, who originally looked a little apprehensive after the opponent's goal, began to calm down under Simeone's shouting at this time.
It's just a goal behind, and it's not like the sky is falling!
The second half had just started and they had plenty of time to equalise!
Even a team of the level of Huang Saren can we beat, how old is Manchester City?
The confidence brought by the past victories has completely calmed their mentality, and there is no impatience and worry, replaced by a strong fighting spirit!
Seeing that the players' mentality stabilized and their fighting spirit was re-raised, Simeone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, although he managed to calm the emotions of the players, the team's offensive problems have not been resolved.
Without Diego Costa, Atletico Madrid's attacking strength has weakened a lot, and how to get the ball into the opponent's goal is the biggest problem at present.
Villa stood in the center circle, put the ball at his feet, and looked at Lin Quan, who was surrounded by his teammates in the distance, with his hands on his hips.
Although he has no regrets, Villa, like other forwards, still envy Lin Quan's strong individual ability.
As a striker who has been teammates with both Messi and Lin, Villa knows better than anyone else how perverted the strength of these two is.
Watching them play football, it always feels like it's not the same thing as other people.
They can do a lot of actions that ordinary people can't even think of, let alone do, and the football is at their feet, as if they have life, and they are tamed properly and very cooperative.
If you can have such a powerful ability, then I'm afraid you will achieve more honors than that, right?
However, of course, these are extravagant expectations.
In the entire football world, there are only two such phenomenal players.
Even, before Lin Quan appeared, people doubted that a player like Messi would be able to reappear in the future?
However, Villa is not presumptuous, he knows that he also has something that they don't have, and that is experience!
As long as you use these well, combined with your own talent that is not bad, you can also create miracles!
……
After Pellegrini celebrated, he immediately told the players to put away the kick after the kick-off, stabilize the situation first, and see how Atletico reacted before deciding whether to continue the attack.
The match was so important that he had to be careful and careful.
In a game like the final, there is basically no room for error.
As long as you can win the final victory, what does it matter if you kick a little bit awkwardly?
Of course, Pellegrini doesn't intend to be so passive forever.
If Manchester City can withstand this round of Atletico Madrid's attack, then he will still make substitution adjustments.
In short, after the score lead, the initiative is completely in the hands of Manchester City!
Sure enough, after the restart, Atletico's attack became more intense.
However, Manchester City had expected that almost everyone in the team, regardless of strikers and defenders, was put into defence.
Even De Bruyne and David Silva, who are not very good defensively, are contributing.
Atletico's lack of stars is starting to show up at this time, and without the super individual ability of the stars, they have to create very good chances to be able to score.
But it's hard to create chances like that, especially when City's players are trying their best to defend, and they struggle to break through opposition defences with passing tactics.
After all, they are Atletico Madrid, not Barcelona, and their coach is Simeone, not Arsene Wenger.
The time of the game passed little by little, and the score on the field was still 1:0.
Atletico's attack has not yet worked, but their defence is still strong, especially after targeted restrictions on City's attacks from the flanks, and it has become almost impossible for City to score goals like before.
In the 73rd minute, Atletico had a great chance.
Villa used his wealth of experience to suddenly reverse and successfully counter offside in a very extreme situation, receiving a pass from Koke.
It's a one-shot shot!
In front of Villa and the goal, only Manchester City's goalkeeper Joe Hart remains!
Villa scurried along, feeling the wind in his ears and the hustle and bustle of the pitch.
At this moment, Villa felt like he was back in the summer of 2005.
At that time, he was 24 years old, young and full of vitality, and could do almost anything on the field, setting a world record of three goals in five minutes!
It's back, it's all back!
As if he had found the feeling of his prime, Villa glanced at Joe Hart, who was full of horror, adjusted the football, and picked up his legs.
However, just as he was about to shoot, a figure rushed from the side, a sliding tackle, snatching the ball from his feet!
What?
How can it be?
Villa was stunned, and suddenly looked back and saw Manchester City's No.10 leading the football towards Atletico Madrid's half.
It was Lin who snatched the ball from under his feet?
Villa was even more shocked!
By the time he was successful in his anti-offside position, he had already shaken off almost all of City's players, how could anyone be faster than him?
And, isn't Lin supposed to stay in the front court?
How did it end up here?
On the sidelines, Simeone saw it more clearly.
The moment Lin Quan's attack was launched, he had already returned from the front court and came directly to the midfield position.
When the ball passed to the feet of Coke, Lin Quan seemed to recognize that the opponent would pass the ball to Villa, so he rushed directly towards Villa.
Villa did succeed in countering offside and got rid of Manchester City's defenders, but almost at the same time as he shook off the defenders, Lin Quan, who had completed the acceleration, also crossed the Manchester City back line at the same time and chased after him from behind.
Villa had just started, and his speed was far less fast than Lin Quan, and he didn't know the situation behind him, so Lin Quan easily broke the ball!
The noise that Villa had just heard while running was actually the sound of Atletico Madrid fans desperately trying to remind him.
It's a pity that the noise at the scene was so noisy that Villa didn't hear the fans' prompts clearly.
Otherwise, he may choose to shoot in advance, in which case there is at least a 50% chance of scoring!
In fact, Lin Quan set his sights on Villa earlier than Simeone thought.
At the start of the second half, Lin Quan found that Villa began to become active.
Come to think of it, too, although Villa is 33 years old.
But with Diego Costa off the pitch, he is currently the most dangerous Atletico player on the pitch.
Therefore, the Atletico players will definitely subconsciously hand the ball to him and let him finish the last shot.
Therefore, when seeing that Villa had a chance to get rid of Manchester City's offside trap, Lin Quan immediately made a judgment.
I'd rather run for nothing than give the other party any chance!
So, when he rushed towards Villa, he wasn't sure if the opponent would be able to catch the ball.
Judging by the results, he was right!
Now, it's City's turn to fight back!
Atletico's players saw that their teammates had just missed a good opportunity, and the opponent launched a quick counterattack, and the psychological defense was suddenly chaotic again.
They had already seen the hope of equalizing, but they were brutally punctured by the other party, which made them feel very desperate!
With just over 20 minutes left and the score still trailing, can they really equalise?
Lin Quan doesn't care so much, the other party's mentality is in chaos, isn't that right?
He quickly dribbled past a scrambling Koke and forwarded to Kevin De Bruyne.
De Bruyne played a pass to the wall, and then passed Gabi who rushed over to intercept it.
The ball was back at Lin Quan's feet, and by this time, he had already rushed past the half.
This scene made the fans at the scene feel a little familiar.
It seems that the goal twenty minutes ago, that's how it was scored?
Could it be that Manchester City is going to extend their lead and completely kill the suspense of the game?
