Chapter 112 It’s time to compete when needed
"Li Zhao kicked the ball out, but he didn't seem to kick it well. The ball hit the wall and bounced high. Oops, the opponent's goalkeeper and the defensive player grabbed it together. The goalkeeper's fingers were already touching.
The ball, the ball bounced again.
Wang Ziyi...it was Wang Ziyi, the ball actually landed on top of his head! A slight tip, OK, the ball went in!!" Lou Yichen explained passionately.
"Yeah, I didn't expect that the first half of the game would be like this. The situation was completely reversed. Now the Portuguese's away goals have equaled their opponents. In this case, Santos needs to score two goals to win the game.
." Li Bin analyzed.
"Actually, judging from the scene, both teams performed very well. Even in terms of statistics, the Portuguese are still obviously weaker than the opponent. However, the Portuguese are still better at seizing opportunities, so this result is unexpected, but it is
It's also reasonable." Lou Yichen said.
Wang Ziyi was so excited that he rushed to Li Zhaodao: "I knew your assist would be no problem."
"Uh, I'm ashamed!" Li Zhao smiled faintly, but said with a guilty conscience. In fact, he didn't hit the right spot in the previous move, and he thought it was going to be bad as soon as he took off. Fortunately, he was really lucky, and he had such an accident in the end.
result.
In short, the score was rewritten. The Portuguese team unexpectedly made a comeback and entered the halftime break with a score of 0-2.
"Everyone performed very well. I didn't expect that we could have such a start in the first half. However, we cannot relax in the second half. Facing an opponent like Santos, any slack will ruin the situation we finally turned around. Although
The opponent also played very actively, but I always feel that they have not tried their best." During the halftime break, Figo affirmed the performance of the players. Although these words may sound a bit cliché, they are the best praise for them.
.
"Yes, although our opponent scored two goals by us, there were no obvious flaws. Moreover, Li Zhao and Wang Ziyi performed so eye-catchingly. They will definitely receive more attention in the second half. You have to be careful."
Su Maozhen reminded.
"Don't worry, they can't trap me!" Li Zhao was still very confident about this, and Wang Ziyi also nodded.
On the other side of the Santos team's lounge, Romarjo looked so heavy that he seemed to be dripping with water. He looked at the players in front of him in silence for a long time, which made them all feel guilty.
"Coach, their defense is really good, especially that Dana. Unexpectedly, not only did he play today, but he was in better shape than in the last game, and the cooperation of their defense was obviously better than in the last game.
A lot." Thiago Ribeiro couldn't help but spoke first.
"Did I let you speak?" Romarjo's attitude was still tough. He looked at his players and said angrily: "Your performance really surprised me. I even doubted whether you were playing this game at home.
It's played at home. Look at how you played in this half. Even if you failed to score a goal after so many attacks, this is not the most serious thing. The key is that not only can you not score a goal now, when will you be able to score a goal?
It has become so easy to concede goals now. They gave them so many chances in the first half alone and were still two goals behind. Where is your defense? Are you all sleepwalking collectively?"
"That Li Zhao was quite weird. He couldn't guard him at all in the early stages. His appearance was comparable to Ronnie in his heyday. That was when we conceded the first goal. I don't know why, but he was so good after that.
I just don’t feel that strong anymore. And that Wang Ziyi, his advantage at high altitude is too obvious, and the power of his shot is also terrifying." Gruvanio said with a blushing face.
"That's right. You have learned to find excuses. This is not a good sign. In the past, you were all better than the other. Has this energy been exhausted by your previous opponents? I won't say much else.
, then you have to continue to guard Li Zhao, and Wang Ziyi, too, and then it’s time for our offensive players to play their role. I don’t need to say this. I know that some of you are because of a certain
For some reasons, I still retain my strength, but now it’s time to exert my strength! In short, I want to see the goal as soon as possible in the second half.” Romalho finally warned.
If the stadium is one of Li Zhao's battlefields, then the gambling battle with Guo Bin and the others is another battlefield. This can also be regarded as a second-line battle in another sense, and they are all closely related.
In a bar club in Sao Paulo, Guo Bin and the others were also paying attention to the competition.
"This is troublesome. Didn't you say that the Portuguese is definitely not Santos' opponent? But what about the current situation!" The betting fight in this game was originally instigated by Xue Jin, so Guo Bin was also very annoyed about this situation.
He was also curious as to why problems would always occur at critical moments.
"Boss, don't get excited yet. Isn't there still a second half? I think there will be new changes by then." Xue Jin also said speechlessly.
It was his fate to be paired with a boss who didn't understand football but always liked to get in the way. However, Xue Jin had no better choice. In fact, it was not entirely without choice. If he could put aside this grudge, he would still
You can live a very nourishing life, but then you wouldn't be Xue Jin.
"I hope it's as you said!" Guo Bin had now poured out the water and could only choose to believe him.
After the start of the second half of the game, the Santos team became more active on the offensive end. Coupled with their own strength, the Portuguese team's goal was immediately disturbed, and the defense began to loosen after a long attack.
In the 53rd minute, the Santos team took advantage of a passing error by the Portuguese team and played a series of exquisite cooperation. Damio intercepted the ball and knocked it to Cicero, who passed the ball diagonally to the wing. Gabigol quickly advanced to the back.
After hitting the middle, Thiago Ribeiro followed up and shot into the far corner.
1-2, Santos regained a victory, and both sides returned to the same starting line.
Figo also took the opportunity to go to the sidelines and shout: "Everyone should be alert and be careful not to miss anyone in their position. Of course, don't care too much and try to score another goal, so that they can pay off their debt with two goals.
"
"I was in a hurry to pass the ball just now, I'm sorry!" Wang Ziyi walked to Li Zhao and said. The mistake just now happened when he passed the ball to Li Zhao. Now his passing is pretty good, and this kind of situation is also relatively good.
It's rare, so my old face is a little red now.
"You don't need to tell me this. Mistakes will always happen, as long as you take a break in time. I am the same when it comes to responsibility. When you pass the ball, I should be ready to respond in advance. Now both of us are being
If people are guarding each other, the chance of success of direct passes between each other will be greatly reduced, so it is best to have an intermediary to take over." Li Zhao comforted.
In the following games, both sides appeared to be more cautious in defense, so they basically did not leave the opponent a single chance. As a result, there were more shots near the penalty area. This was a test for the goalkeepers of both sides, especially Santos.
The goalkeeper has been psychologically affected by Wang Ziyi's long-range shot. However, because he was closely guarded, Wang Ziyi was greatly disturbed, and his accuracy was naturally reduced a lot. In this regard, he is not yet as good as Li Zhao
That's how easy it is to deal with it.
Until the end of stoppage time in the second half, there was still no new progress between the two sides. Because both sides currently have a 2-1 score at the other side's home court, overtime is inevitable. This result is acceptable to both sides.
, although the game still continues in this stadium, the visiting team no longer has the only advantage of away goals, and is more passive in terms of the situation.
