Chapter 665 Small Win

"The referee stabilized the mood of Villarreal players, but he was not affected by the home team players and fans. He was obviously very sure that this was a foul in the penalty area and it was not a red card."

"But both sides are not satisfied with such a penalty, but I have to say that this is the most accurate penalty, whether it is the balance on the field or the actual situation on the field."

"Of course, if the referee wants to award a red card and a penalty kick, the Villarreals may have to admit that they are unlucky. After all, their right back has not really participated in the defense!"

"It's still a little while before the end of the first half. Who will take the penalty from Manchester United?"

...

Commentators around the world were talking about it and expressed their opinions on this penalty. Generally speaking, they still quite agree with the referee's penalty, which not only abides by the penalty rules, but also takes into account the balance on the field.

Of course, everyone is also concerned about who will take the penalty kick.

Fanny was originally Manchester United's first penalty kicker, but because he lost several penalty kicks in the past year or two, many people are calling for the cancellation of his right to be the first penalty kicker.

In addition, recently, news has been frequently reported that Fanny and Ferguson have had a falling out and are about to be cleaned up. In this case, it is a question whether he can still take the penalty kick.

……………………

Fanny looked at Yin Jun deeply and said reluctantly: "You'd better come..."

Yin Jun shook his head and said, "No, you'd better go, you're the team's number one penalty kicker."

"I've lost the penalty a few times before, and I'm not sure." Fanny said in a dilemma.

Yin Jun looked at Ronaldo, Rooney, Giggs and other teammates, and these people also looked at Yin Jun. Ronaldo nodded at Yin Jun and encouraged him: "You used to hit a high penalty kick rate, and it's best for you to take the penalty."

In fact, Ronaldo really wants to take the penalty kick himself. He doesn't score many goals in the Champions League, and it would be great if he could score in a key game like the Champions League semi-finals.

However, it was not his turn to take the penalty. Although the Dutch lost a lot of penalty kicks in the past two years, the old man has always expressed his trust in him and has not cancelled his right to take the penalty kick first.

Even if the Dutch took the initiative to give up the penalty, he gave it to Yin Jun, the creator of the penalty kick. Moreover, Yin Jun is also the team captain, and the order of penalty kicks was before him.

That's why he directly asked Yin Jun to take the penalty kick.

……………………

Mariano Barbosa, 22 years old, 1.88 meters tall and 77 kg. She transferred to Villarreal from Argentina's first-tier league Banfield last summer and quickly gained the trust of Pellegrini, gained a firm foothold in the team, and almost shared the opportunity to play with Vieira.

In the past season, Barbosa has played in most of the Champions League matches and is one of the heroes of Villarreal to advance to the semi-finals.

The Barbosa man is high and has a wide range of control and agile reactions, but his judgment of the high ball and the timing of attack are still relatively immature.

Yin Jun looked deeply at the tall and burly Argentine goalkeeper, who was also watching him.

Yin Jun took a deep breath, looked directly at Barbosa, walked into the penalty area calmly, placed the football at the penalty spot, stepped on the grass behind the football, and slowly retreated.

Facing the most terrifying attacker in the world football world today, the young Barbosa is imaginable. He is trying hard to recall Yin Jun's habit of taking penalty kicks, but the referee did not give him time to think. After Yin Jun set the ball and retreated to the position, the whistle of the free throw was quickly blown.

In an instant, nearly 70,000 fans at Old Trafford Stadium almost held their breath.

Even at this moment, countless Manchester United fans who were squatting in front of the TV to watch the live broadcast of the game also held their breath, and their eyes fell on Yin Jun, who was wearing the No. 8 jersey.

……………………

Yin Jun took a few quick breaths, took a deep breath, and rushed forward quickly.

Yin Jun, who has a balanced left and right foot, is definitely an opponent that any goalkeeper is afraid of, because it is difficult for you to judge which foot Yin Jun will take the penalty.

At this moment, Barbosa was also very nervous. He could only quickly predict his free throw route based on Yin Jun's movements. When he saw Yin Jun acting to kick to the right side of the goal, he immediately flew to make a save.

He knew very well that it would be too late to react until Yin Jun gave the ball.

But Yin Jun suddenly paused and quickly pushed a penalty kick.

"Oh my god, spoon penalty!"

"God, Yin Jun gave a spoon penalty kick! He easily sent the ball to the middle!"

"I'm really a skilled man and a brave man!"

“1:0!”

"The current situation is quite beneficial to Manchester United. Yin Jun's personal performance before the end of the first half was over, and after passing two opponents' defensive players in a row, he created a yellow card and a penalty kick from Alvarez, and then calmly scored a penalty kick, helping Manchester United take the lead!"

"This is Yin Jun's 14th Champions League goal this season, and he once again tied the Champions League single-season historical goal record!"

...

……………………

Shortly after Yin Jun scored a penalty, the Austrian referee blew the whistle to the end of the first half. With Yin Jun's penalty, Manchester United led 1-0 into the midfield.

At the beginning of the second half, neither side made any personnel adjustments.

With the cheering of home fans, Manchester United gradually controlled the situation on the field, and the balance of victory was tilting towards Manchester United.

Pellegrini couldn't sit still anymore. When the game was just in the 55th minute, he replaced Jose Mali with Mexican shooter Franco.

Under Manchester United's control, it is difficult for the yellow submarine to create too good offensive opportunities, which has led to their players gradually losing patience.

In the 59th minute, Tachinadi tackled Yin Jun from behind and was warned by a yellow card that he would miss the next home game.

Giggs took a free kick from the right, and Ronaldo headed the ball 10 meters in front of the goal and was confiscated by Barbosa.

Manchester United quickly made a comeback, with Ronaldo making a straight pass from the right, but Rooney was misjudged as offside.

Tachinadi fell to the ground and was injured. Manchester United had to stop the offense and kick the ball out of bounds. Ferguson walked out of the coach's seat and seemed very anxious. He hoped that the team would continue to expand the score.

However, Villarreal's defense was very tenacious. Manchester United failed to score the second goal until the 5-minute injury time ended. However, Manchester United's defense was also very stable and did not give Villarreal any opportunity to take advantage of.

In the end, Manchester United kept the score 1:0 until the end of the game.
